It’s a sad day for Dragon Age fans.
However, I always felt this particular subsection of the community was simply more vocal than the others.
Unable to reconcile Cassandra’s story with her romance, Gaider spearheaded a total rewrite of the character.
One specific scene would go on to define Cassandra’s new character.
“Now I had to figure out what I was going to do with Cassandra.
“That meant a re-write.
I didn’t WANT to erase all that good work, but I needed to start from scratch.
A pious, self-righteous character was already a risk in terms of romantic appeal.
Hepler’s version of Cassandra was pious and self-righteous, which aren’t typically attractive qualities.
“In this instance, Cassandra already being a known character helped.
I came across a webcomic (by aimo, I think?
I wish I could find it now) that made a joke about Cassandra reading Varric’s books.
Off-hand, no basis for it, but funny.
And I thought: Yes.
That’s what I’m missing,” Gaider continues.
Dragon Age: Inquisition is the third in the popular action RPG series from BioWare, and serves as a sequel to the events of Dragon Age 2. You must travel the continent of Thedas in order to seal the ‘Breach’, a kind of portal that is sending demonic enemies into the world.
“I sat down and wrote the “fangirl” scene, just to test it out.
Thus, Cassandra was transformed into this intense yet charming warrior.
