In Dragon Age: Inquisition, Vivienne's tarot cards are the High Priestess, the Queen of Cups, and the World, all of which relate to her intuition.

When Dragon Age: Inquisition was first released, its collector's edition came with a deck of tarot cards. The cards assigned different characters to major and minor arcana. Outside the collector's edition, the designs are also in the game when selecting characters and reading codices. For the inner circle companions, their cards can change depending on player choices.

Vivienne is one such Dragon Age: Inquisition companion and has three different tarot cards. Her default card is the High Priestess, her quest completion is the Queen of Cups, and her Divine card is the World. Her cards relate to her motivations, abilities, and her relationships with other characters.

Vivienne's default card, the High Priestess, is a card about intuition, insight, and mystery. In reverse, it can mean secrets and withholding information. Vivienne is known to be a character that does not show her whole hand. She is a master of the Game, which is all about social manipulation and hidden information. While Vivienne is a strong mage, she also is strong in hidden ways, in her intuition and ability to read situations. She trusts in her inner instincts and can see when the world is not as it seems. It is these talents that have allowed Vivienne to get to where she is in Inquisition. It is also what makes her a powerful asset.

The High Priestess is connected to the element of water, which can symbolize Vivienne's influence. She can create ripples in Orlais and in the Mage Circles with her power. The High Priestess is the card that comes before The Empress, which is also a card of feminine energy.

When her personal quest is completed, Vivienne's tarot card changes to the Queen of Cups. The Cups suit is one that is all about emotion, and the Queen is known for ruling her emotions with intuition and compassion. The card symbolizes nurture, sensitivity, and listening to one's heart. His card relates to Vivienne's feelings, particularly her feelings over Bastien de Ghislain.

Vivienne is a master of hiding her sentimentalities, but this card shows her vulnerable side. She tries to get the Inquisitor to make a potion to help Bastien. Whether they help or not, he passes away and Vivienne mourns him. The Queen of Cups shows that Vivienne has depth and that she cares deeply for her loved ones. The fact that it's the Queen face card also gives a sense of mastery. Vivienne can master her emotions, and be empowered by them rather than let them empower her.

If Vivienne is chosen for Divine, her tarot card changes to the World. This card is the final one in the order of the major arcana. It means a cycle is completed. It is a symbol of conclusion and fulfillment. It suits Vivienne's status as Divine because she has climbed up the final rung of the ladder. As Divine, she is one of the most powerful people in all of Thedas. This is the end of a journey for her, as she has climbed her way up in influence ever since she was a little girl.

The card is related to the element of earth, which means Vivienne has a sense of stability in her new position. As Divine, she is connected to the physical realm, its health, its wealth, and its people. She is not only a participant in the world but one that can feel which way the world sways and tips in or out of her favor.
