Inhabitants of Dragon Age: Inquisition's world will continue to treat Elves and Qunari in different ways, according to developer BioWare, so players who choose such characters will encounter different stereotypes.

The universe of the Dragon Age series is a rich one with all sorts of races, from humans, to dwarves, elves or the imposing Qunari.

Players will need to face different stereotypes depending on what race they choose for their character, according to Cinematic Director Jonathan Perry, who talked with Gamerzines.

"In the Dragon Age world elves are still treated as slaves or scum. What will be really interesting in Dragon Age: Inquisition is to see how characters react to a Qunari Inquisitor because they’re in a similar position as the elves were in Dragon Age: Origins. People are pretty skeptical of a putting a Qunari in a position of power."

Dragon Age: Inquisition is out next year for PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One.
