Which romance did the actor choose? Gareth David-Lloyd explains that he first pursued a romance with Josephine Montilyet in Dragon Age: Inquisition. However, he described it as “miserable”. Next, he tried it with Cassandra Pentaghast. “Yes, that was good,” he concluded.
In the third run, the actor played a female character and entered into a relationship with Solas. However, he humorously did not mention Solas, saying: “Last time, I created a female character and started a romance with myself – which was the best.”
