Story spoilers obviously.
Fair warning, Im terrrrrrible with names in this game. Haven't memorized any of them
This was spurred by around midway into the game when you're tasked with stopping the Grey Wardens who are attempting to bind a nightmare demon because they were tricked by a mage working for the big bad. You get to the big fight, but instead of getting to bust up the evil wizard, this badass grey haired lady mage fucks his shit up and fucks up the dragon and I'm like "goddamn lady leave some for me". How great would it have been if she came back later with a few really gnarly scars or something and joined the party? I woulda loved that.
I also think it woulda been interesting to be able to recruit a prisoner. I took the mage path (over templars) and that mage's story about bending time to save his son is super intriguing. A time-based mage would have been a really interesting addition, especially if he's a controversial and divisive figure.
Both of these characters are on the older side too which I feel is something missing a bit in the current companions.
