Some of my ideas:

Amell sibling. DA2 indicates somewhere that the Amell in DA:O has at least one sibling. This could be a good mage origin.

Surana. And by this I mean the actual DA:O character of the elf mage origin. This would only be if you didn't play as the Surana character in DA:O. The game seems to suggest that the human mage and the elven mage origins cannot be simultaneous. So maybe an Amell presence in the Lake Calanhad Circle means a Surana is sent to the Circle in Orlais, and vice versa.

Convert from Orzammar. A dwarf origin could be one who met Brother Berkel and shown the Chant of Light. This would make sense with a dwarf acting as Inquisitor. There may also be an option to have that dwarf show emotion based on whether Berkel was persecuted or not. This dwarf could be a Legionnaire Scout, making him or her valued as one more resistant to magic than templars, and this dwarf could even be a Legion of the Dead if the writers play it right.

Alienage elf who has shown much loyalty to the Chantry, even if the elf secretly despises humans. A good possible storyline, especially if the plot involves dealing with elven magic. This elf could also be of a Dalish origin originally.

If there will be a Qunari Inquisitor, then he or she could be Tal'Vashoth. Or if the Qun allows for a Qunari to deceive an enemy and live as they do in order to infiltrate, then someone like Sten might be able to become an Inquisitor depending on how the Inquisition is run. Other than that, it would have to be a Kossith who was separated from the Qunari at a young age and then raised in the Chantry.

As confirmed by Gaider, the new Inquisition is an institution created outside of the chantry. Thus, there's no need to come up with ways to always make a potential character loyal to the chantry to justify them being an Inquisitor. 213.22.233.94 (talk) 17:01, September 29, 2013 (UTC)

My biggest theory is that the Inquisitor is actually a Fade Spirit that got "injured" in the tear and its coroporealisation and had to seek refuge in the nearly dead body of a nearby dwarf/elf/human/qunari but the trauma of the injuries plus the body possession fractured its sense of self and memories, and the memories of the spirit and the person blended into a new identity that is more the person than the spirit but still gets glimpses of who they truly are in certain events. What kind of spirit you ask? Well I imagine that or whether it is actually a demon, would be shaped by post-facto by the choices you make as a player.

Why would such a person become the inquisitor? Because no one, not even they know they're a spirit in a person's body only that they "survived" a tear in the veil. YGuy (talk) 07:19, October 1, 2013 (UTC)

If DAI will have an abomination as a protagonist, then I'll hate this game. I want my Inquisitor to be a mortal from flesh and bones, with own past and childhood, not memories of a fade spirit. I imagined my Inquisitor as an elf, who wants to be an elven hero like Shartan, Garahel and elven Warden and I still want him to be like this and not a fade spirit with no idea about the world it came to.62.87.147.173 (talk) 07:32, October 1, 2013 (UTC)
