Cullen and Josephine are the latest two characters to be profiled on the official Dragon Age: Inquisition website, and this time it's developers Brianne Battye and Sylvia Feketekuty answering the Q&A about their creation, motives, skills, and more. An excerpt from each:
[DA]: Cullen made a pretty big decision at the end of Dragon Age II. How has his life changed since he sided against Knight-Commander Meredith?
[BB]: Meredith was Cullen's commanding officer; he wanted to trust her. But standing against her paved the way for him to help form what would become the Inquisition. The templars failed to protect their charges and the people of Kirkwall. The Order has not lived up to its ideal, and though it wasn't easy for him, Cullen now recognizes that. It's something he's still processing, but he's looking to move forward and fight for something he can believe in. The whole world's falling apart, and Cullen won't sit by and watch that happen. He wants to be part of a solution. If that means serving the Inquisition instead of the Order, then that's what he's going to do.

[DA]: How would you describe Josephine's role?
[SF]: Josephine is the head ambassador of the Inquisition. She handles diplomatic disputes on the Inquisitor's behalf, raising the player's reputation and spreading the Inquisition's influence throughout Thedas.
Or in less fancy terms: Josephine does a lot of work that's very important, and also very boring. Keeping a huge organization like the Inquisition afloat takes negotiations and paperwork and endless politics, but Josephine lives for that kind of stuff. She prides herself on having the Inquisitor's back (for example, making deals with the right people, or heading off power plays by other nobles) so the Inquisitor is free to make the decisions that actually shape the world.
