Dragon Age: The Veil Guardian has one excellent cast of charactersalmost all of whom are new to the series. However, it looks like there were once plans to have some characters from previous games appear as party members. And now that fans know this, they are in their feelings.
The news of this comes from the Dragon Age: The Veil Guardian Art bookwhich is out now and is full of spoilers. But we won’t go into everything that actually happens in the game here. So don’t worry about that. But there are pages of concept art for hypothetical party members that didn’t land The Veil Guardian
According to the art book, Calpernia was a potential Party member at some point The Veil Guardian
Logistically, it makes sense that BioWare would scrap this idea since Calpernia exists in so many different quantum states depending on the player’s choice. But that hasn’t stopped fans from being upset that an underrated fan-favorite villain didn’t make the cut The Veil Guardian
Personally, I have little connection to Calpernia because I have never met her in my life inquisition Play through. The only way to get her to show up is to recruit the Templars in the first act of the game, and I’m a professional magician who tried to snog Dorian. So Calpernia and I never met. But it’s always fun to know who might have joined the party at some point. I mean, unless knowing this information bothers you. But Calpernia could still appear in the future Dragon Age game, assuming BioWare allows players to make decisions about what happened to her.
