elven goddess :)

 

Eh, i'd prefer her to be just Sera and not another "vessel". I like her the way she is..

Besides, she'll get panic attacks if she finds out she's the vessel of an elven goddess. :P

 

She just happens to be really good with the bow. :wub:

Wait! Do you have a screenshot of Sera looking cheeky? Preferably a close up.

Does that second one not count?

Yea, I find the elven god theory to be really reaching

I need to hear more about that theory. How many buy it and how seriously do people take Sera being some unknowing god?

im no rhetortician so i cant properly explain it. Basically its a theory that sera is a mind-wiped elven goddess named andruil goddess of the hunt(may be confusing names again). It has its holes but what FT doesnt. A fair number of bsner believe it as do some tumblrs. But it has even score of detractors

my elders are my guidance. i am their voice. that's how i do things. i don't solely rely on that because sometimes their knowledge is tied into respectability politics which i am not about. i interact with too many different types of people to co-sign that.

Wow, I'm glad that I got some likes back as this conversation is really enjoyable to read.


I wasn't even aware one could run out of likes! Now you've got me paranoid about using mine. Are you limited to a certain number per thread or just overall? Also, apologies if I've missed tagging a few things as such- this conversation's flying pretty fast for me for message board standards.

Not really. I know I've seen one before. I think it's her in the tavern (not sure if it is in Haven or Skyhold) and it's a close up of her with big smile on her face. I swear I've seen it!

I'd tend to think that would make one too many secret elf gods running around Thedas.

You mean the dirty/cheeky one from after she goes a bit bonkers?

its hollywood they will find someway to water him down i have love for him and dont wanna see him butchered. If they must use him.... give... nay I DEMAND young justice make a return

Not really. DC seems dead set on making their movies pretty gritty and dark. Because of that they really wouldn't have to tone him down. If anything they could show him at his most monstrous. The only real problem I see is unlike the Joker or even someone like Brainiac, Savage would require some build up. I mean guys like Lex Luthor and Ra's al Ghul think they have the resources, man power and plans to take over the world. But, compared to Vandal Savage they are simply playing games. In order to establish Savage as the threat he is and to establish his history, you really need to devote a couple movies to him. After all we are talking about a cave man who has been working towards world domination sine the Prehistoric days.

That's the one! Or at least, very, very similar. Thank you for finding it.

Huh. I think if Sera turned out to be a goddess it might kind of spoil her character for me a bit. Also, it would start to feel like DA was turning into Good Omens. (R.I.P. Terry Pratchett, by the way.)

Yep, likes do run out and are replenished by some time rate, the fast moving conversation is why I just sat back to read it as it takes me way too long to put my thoughts into words. I would have missed too much. :)

Yea, I feel the same way. My grandmother is really old school in some respects and some of her view points don't really gel with mine. But, she has the tenacity of someone less than half her age and isn't afraid to stand up for what she knows is right. I just think to many people are too quick to dismiss their elders. A group like OWS would have done much better of we had more elders helping out. Heck, my grandma was half pissed when she couldn't make the trip to Denver in order to participate. She said that for the first time in a long time she had some hope and wanted to do what ever she could.

I agree . I dislike the implications for her character under that theory and I also dislike the "secret elven god" stuff like it was fine with Solas and Flemeth but enough is enough.

Basically the only "positive" to me on that theory is that Sera might have a chance of coming back and playing a larger role down the line.

Wait, sorry. I was mixing up Good Omens with American Gods...which is only Neil Gaiman. Guess I just had Mr. Pratchett on the mind what with the recent news.

 

Anyway, they could still bring her back in the future but, yeah, I think probably the main reason Sera fans would go for a 'secret goddess' theory is simply to ensure her continued relevance in the series. However, we've had fan favorite characters return before (Oghren, Varric) to reprise their role as party members so I wouldn't rule out seeing her back in the group for an expansion or the next main entry in the series.

I should say I do think that post is well thought out and doesn't come from a place of bashing Sera (which is where I had mostly seen that theory before it) so while I don't like it, it's a good read.

Besides, she'll get panic attacks if she finds out she's the vessel of an elven goddess. :P

 

She just happens to be really good with the bow. :wub:

 

I agree. Her skill with the bow comes from the same place as my English, I could say.

 

Just one day came to her and asked her "Do you want me?" and she said "Yes!"
