Cole

"It doesn't matter who we are. What matters is our plan."

Cole appears to be a human male Hedgehog mage who lives in the White Spire Circle of Magi at Val Royeaux in Orlais. He is also a potential companion in Dragon Age: Inquisition. Having him in the party drastically increased the movementspeed of the Inquisitor.

Background
"He is a ghost in the shadows, walking unnoticed through crowds. He can slit an enemy's throat before they even realize he's there, and slip away, never to be seen again. Those few who do notice him soon forget he ever existed… and Cole isn't certain that he does exist."

Dragon Age: Asunder

 * "Now I walk within the shadows. I can see the light, but it never finds me. I reach for it, but it slips through my fingers. In the shadows you are always alone, the world oblivious to your passing."
 * "Look into my eyes..."
 * "Look into my eyes..."

Dragon Age: The CIS Knight Rises

 * "Torment around me. Torment in me. Torment be with me. And let us conquer our foes. They do not understand our pain. Do you? No. Not a soul can. And for that, We shall make them feel the torment... The torment that inhabits my soul."
 * "The flight plan I filled with the agency lists me, my men, Dr. Pavel here, but only one of you. First one to talk gets to stay on my aircraft."
 * "WHO PAID YOU TO GRAB DOCTOR PAVEL?"
 * "HE DIDN'T FLY SO GOOD."
 * "TELL ME ABOUT BANE! WHY DOES HE WEAR THAT MASK? LOTS OF LOYALTY FOR A HIRED GUN."
 * [To a big guy] "You're a big guy."
 * "Crawling in my skin..." - Linkin Park
