So, with the advice of the fine folk from this thread I have been able to get one playthrough done and it was REALLY fun. I played a Male Human Mage romancing Morrigan which I really enjoyed. Now, I need to decide what to do next. The things that appeal to me for this playthrough are the following

-City Elf Female Rogue, Romancing Alistair

-Noble Human Rogue/Warrior, Romancing Alistair/Morrigan (depends on gender)

-Noble Dwarf Male Warrior, Romancing NO ONE

-A possible reroll of my Mage

All of which have several problems.

The City Elf romancing Alistair feels a bit off. Not to mention that there's not much room for variance within Rogue, so playing multiple Rogues is unappealing.

The Noble I'm just completely wracked with indecision over. I can't make a single choice there.

Noble Dwarf Male Warrior seems a poor decision for a second playthrough because I really want to see the Alistair 'mance. The whole Aeducan thing is SUPER cool, I wanna play it. But... nyeh.

Reroll would be ALMOST pointless

Help this dumb geek, forumites please?

Dwarf power!

Seriously, dorfs are like the best part of Dragon Age. Dorf commoner is also an excellent origin.

Couldn't you just play a female dorf?

(Nice Avatar, bro)

I don't want to bang a human as a Dwarf. Seems weird. Also, I want a beard.

Play the human noble. It has a great origin story which ties in wonderfully to Loghain.

Wow, you must have been playing nonstop to get a playthrough done that fast. Or I just take my time a lot slower than other gamers.

Dwarven Noble gets some awesome early level loot from Denerim, and you can play an utter bastard during the Orzimmar questline.

I did indeed play nonstop. 40 hours. I will be doing 3 further playthroughs.

Help me decide.

Either of the Noble Origins. One for Revenge (human), and the other for being the biggest manipulator this side of Orlais (Dwarf)

Might I suggest acting like to a cock to everyone you meet. It's supprisingly satisfying to do and ended up being my favorite run of DA.
