i love the kirkwall squad because they all have such protagonist energy. any of them could be the main character. except for varric but he did that on purpose. any of the rest of them could be the main character

#like with origins or inquisition every companion has a Plot and Character Arc #but they are all very definitely side characters #like you couldn't reframe the game from their pov and still make narrative sense #unless you were going for a side-character-as-the-main-character exploration type thing #(which is a cool perspective that i eat up every time i see it but i digress)#but the kirkwall squad all have so much going on independent of each other and the player character #you could make the game from any of their pov #and the only time that'd be out of place would be like. 'man how come my character isn't the one duelling the arishok'#this has been a post #dragon age
