Well somebody told me DA II was poop and to skip it.
I actually thought the elf lady at the beginning looked weird too. She was the first one I was like ... wtf happened to you?! Merrill and Fenris are the only ones that dont look so bad. I usually play lesbian first but ... I forgot to talk to Isabella in the first part of the game
... and then I was trying to figure out... well I was hoping she was wearing pants/stockings/ tights actually. Other than her lack of pants she didnt bother me. I think you could probably flirt with Aveline but I dont think you could romance her. I didnt go for Fenris because I was a mage and I was like... well this isnt going to work ... unlike romancing Cullen in Inquisition
