The Inquisitor

"You walked out of the Fade and our soldiers found you, the only one who escaped the blast that killed thousands. And you have no idea how you survived? At this moment, you are the only threat I see."

- Cassandra Pentaghast

The Inquisitor is the player-controlled protagonist of Dragon Age: Inquisition. The player will be able to choose the character's race, gender, class, and voice set.

Involvement
Following the opening of the game, the Veil has torn across Thedas. The Inquisitor is the sole survivor of one of those tearings, referred to as "the Breach," during a peace conference between the leaders of the Chantry and the mage rebellion at the Temple of Sacred Ashes. The Inquisitor emerges from the Fade unscathed whilst others died. The Inquisitor is then tasked with leading the Inquisition to investigate the tears and put an end to the chaos.

Character creation
The player begins by selecting a gender, race (human, elf, dwarf or qunari ), voice set, and class (warrior, rogue or mage) for the Inquisitor. (The mage class is unavailable to dwarves.)

Origins
Race selection determines the Inquisitor's background.
 * Qunari is a Vashoth, a Qunari who was never introduced to the Qun.
 * Dwarf is a surface dwarf
 * Elf is Dalish.
 * Human is a member of the noble Trevelyan family of the Free Marches, with a mage human of the family having been sent to the Circle.

Voice sets
The Inquisitor is a voiced protagonist. However, unlike with Hawke, the player is able to choose the sound of the protagonist's voice, with two voices available for both genders: one with a British accent and one with an American accent.

Last name

 * Human – Trevelyan
 * Elf – Lavellan
 * Dwarf – Cadash
 * Qunari – Adaar

Unique powers
The Inquisitor possesses a unique ability to manipulate the Fade that manifests itself in green light around the Inquisitor's hands, as seen in the "Inquisitor Trailer" and the game's cover. As of now, no specific details have been given regarding these unique powers.
