    I think it would be awesome to have a apostate origin, or maybe a mercenary one.

    None. "Origins" is an overused subtitle for video games. 11 games are enough.

    yeah being a tranquil awesome it would make all the conversation pretty funny 
    your only choices to any conversation would be yes or no. 
    "what do you think we do"
    "yes"
    "what do you mean yes?"

    I'm fine with the ones that already are in the game. But it would be cool with a werewolf one, but that will never happen.

    Now returning to the real subject... 
     
    how about the story of a Tranquil ? or i it Tranquile 
     
    no emotions, keeping his cool under crazy circonstances, no caring about anything outside of getting the job done...

    I recall reading that there was a human commoner origin that was cut because it didn't fit thematically with the rest of the game. I guess I would like to see that?

    An Apostate.
    The Human Commoner.
    A Qunari.
    A Human from outside of Ferelden, for example, you have been exiled from your country or something like that.
    Just a few that came to my mind.

    Morrigan: Just do me not, in front of everyone !!! 
    Tranquil: Your sentence does not contain enough information for me to understand what you are asking me to do.

    Qunari would be cool.
     
    I was also hoping for some kind of a human commoner, but alas.

    @nanikore: I see "reading comprehension" is not your middle name. 
     
    I'd have liked to see an origin like what one of the guys who failed the blood drinking test had... bandit (human commoner).

    From everything stated in the context of the game, playing as a tranquil would be pointless, since they have no real power besides crafting. You would be useless in a fight. You wouldn't really have many options in the dialogue tree. It wouldn't make any sense Unless...

    My choice for characters I'd like to see was obvious from the moment I met Sten. It seemed weird that the Qunari wasn't a playable race, but then, I'm sure there's a reason Bioware chose it to be so.
    Other obvious choices would have been an actual enslaved elf, an Ash Warrior, an Apostate mage on the run, or even a Blood Mage, although that last option would be more difficult to work out a story for, since it seems hard to believe Duncan would ever recruit a Blood Mage.
     
    And my joke choice: a chanter board person. You'd have to apply the right chant verses to all your dialogue choices to try and make people understand what you're trying to say.

    As said before; a Qunari, orlesian/antivan traveller, apostate, Chasind/Ash warrior. 
     
    I'm sure there's looots of more options that I'm forgetting but I get the feeling that they'll be adding in new areas with possible new origins.

    Maybe an Outcast Warden. That would be awesome. Like, you were a warden, but you've been wrongly outcast for *insert reason here,* and, unable to aid your fellow wardens at Ostagar, you come across Alistair and the opportunity to reclaim your good name.
