We've been in the EA for a very long time, a lot a lot of concepts have come up. Here's one of the times the concept of the main character transitioning between character after their personal story ended.
If I had to choose one character to be the "main character" of this story it would be Shadowheart. Like so many RPG MCs she has amnesia, like so many MCs she finds herself with an ancient artifact of great importance to the story, and like so many MCs she has been given a definite objective that promises adventure and intrigue. [...] with the exception of Gale, every origin character has a pretty clear connection to the overarching plot, Shadowheart's connection is just the most clear in the EA. Gale's connection will probably become more clear as we play, what I wouldn't wager on is Tav doing the same.
And for good measure
here's another involving a theory around Shadowhearts memories. We've seen 'Blondheart' officially in one of the trailers, which I haven't fully factored, it seems a bit past the point for wild speculation now.
Considering people have floated her being the long dead daughter of Thorm, to a brainwashed avatar of Selune, how the story can twist to fit what you want your 'canon' class after the fact seems moot. I think the canon classes will be exactly what they seem on the tin, even if a novelization comes out later how about the adventures of Abdel McTavendish.
