In the next Dragon Age, you'll step into the shoes of Rook, the leader of The Veilguard, a new team central to taking down an evil threat unleashed upon Thedas. However, an exciting, crucial choice awaits you during character creation: picking Rook's faction.

With six major factions to choose from, each one could become a powerful ally in your quest. Your faction choice will shape Rook's backstory, surname, dialogue options, gameplay mechanics and even the balance of power across Thedas.

BioWare hints that this decision will be crucial, influencing not just your character but the fate of the entire continent.

To help you decide and prepare you for what’s at stake, here's a deep dive into the six major factions Rook can choose between. We'll cover their goals, their stance against Solas, key characters, their current struggles, speculative gameplay mechanics, and more.

Are you ready to choose the best faction for your Rook?
