BioWare has released its third cosplay character kit for Dragon Age: Inquisition, this time profiling a rarely seen character named Vivienne.
Like Varric Tethras and Cassandra Pentaghast, Vivienne can join your party as a member and fight alongside you. She’s described as a pro-Circle mage and former Senior Enchanter who joins the Inquisitor to help her fellow mages.
Here’s her description:
To Vivienne, there are no impractical clothes, only impractical people. Her magnificent attire is a sign of her station, the jewel of the high court of Orlais where wealth, power, and beauty are inextricably linked.
A thousand arrows would pierce her breast before Vivienne would don beaten steel for so base an urge as protection. If one must wear armor, then have it flatter the form. Hide it beneath fine fabrics more becoming of one’s status, for steel alone will not protect you from the barbed tongues of Orlais.
To dress for comfort or purpose is a scandal—fashion and splendor are all that matter to Vivienne. Shower yourself in gold, let only the finest silks grace your skin, and wear a king’s ransom in pearls and silver upon your feet. Leave the stained tunics and rough cloaks to the commoners and their mud farms–a proper Orlesian climbs mountains in her evening gown, standing taller at the summit in her formidable high-heeled shoes.
