Zither

Zither is a player-controlled protagonist in Dragon Age: Inquisition's multiplayer.

Playstyle
"ZITHER!, the Virtuoso, is the Inquisition’s first musically inspired multiplayer agent. Although a mage by birth, his true strength—like his heart—lies in his music. When he plays, ZITHER! infuses his lute with the elemental powers of rock and roll. These elements provide a cacophony of different effects, either aiding the party with Crowd-Pleasers or wreaking aural havoc on his enemies with Battle Hymns.

The Virtuoso’s gameplay is very different from existing Inquisition classes. ZITHER! always has 4 abilities mapped, 3 “Notes” and 1 “Song”: the notes are Fire, Ice, Lightning, and players unlock Songs in the ability menu. For example, “Can’t Stop the Music” requires Fire, Fire, Ice, while Encore! calls for Fire, Ice, Lightning! The Virtuoso typically plays a strong support role for your party, but he can easily focus entirely on offense or become a hybrid of both styles—just don’t get stage fright and forget how to play your Songs!”"
