Okay, you guys and Solas just did me a solid. That scar? My Five year old son has one just like it, which he tends to be sensitive about. I showed him Solas then read some of the clean comments. He was smiling all dimply and even blushed a bit.

Who'd have thought, such a simple thing. Hehe


Nothing to be ashamed of! Everybody's got a scar somewhere me I have scar from having appendicitis at the age 15. Your kid should wear that like a badge of Honor " I went through something tragic and survived"! ^_^

I also want to say that if Solas is LI just remember the past 2 DA games have mostly given you a choice to let your LI live or not? so I'm sure it will be the same on this game....hopefully! But really I 100% don't want any of it to be tragic at all! But that's just me I like happy endings.

My husband walked in while I was staring dreamily at the screen comparing the two pictures.  He just shook his head and walked away. 

 

Where'd you get your avatar?  Did you tweak it yourself?  It's awesome :wub:  I want that picture on a tank top so when I run on the treadmill I can stare at it in the mirror for motivation.

 

Haha I'm too lazy for all that! It's cropped most likely from the same picture that was used to compare Solas to Nic Cage! I like how dark and mysterious it makes him look.

If it's tragic, I'm hoping the same, or at least in the vein of Morrigan's tragic ending--where it's essentially up in the air whether her and the Warden will see each other again. Given her current position, it seems unlikely that she plans to go back to him. 
 

I'd rather that than something more along the lines of, say, Bishop's tragic ending in NWN (given the whole Judas speculation) or Thane's ending in mass effect. Those were both far too depressing. But as long as the writing is good, I can't say that I'll be completely dissatisfied. 

 

EDIT: IF he is a love interest. All speculation, of course...

Whenever people talk about scars I always think of this quote. "What a collection of scars you have. Never forget who gave you the best of them, and be grateful, our scars have the power to remind us that the past was real." (Just pretend it was said by someone other than Hannibal Lecter and it will be more complimentary).

 

 

Anyway, now I feel a bit ashamed of wanting to romance him. The guy looks like he's about to fall from exhaustion in the middle of the road, not making hot sex sessions with Inquisitor.

 

 

He's tired because he's having difficulty sleeping. He needs to relax. You would be helping him. 

 

I feel you there sister  :( I hate videogame crushes. I feel wierd. Strange...and very abnormal. First Thane, then Fenris... *sight* Now... possibly Solas.

 

Why you BW, make characters so good?! Its an obsession...sickness.

 

 

Don't feel abnormal! There is nothing wrong with it. Or at the very least, whenever you feel bad compare yourself to my boyfriend and I who have lithographs of Tali, Liara, and Garrus hanging above our bed. See, you're not abnormal.   :D

 

OK I know this is the Solas thread, but whenever I read someone saying "Leliana" I go...

tumblr_likj3cBJo91qbbwvc.gif

 

Leli is my girl.  <3 (Also, I know this forum has issues with Felicia Day. So just do me a favour and don't start:angry:)

 

Finally, Helloooooooooooo Solly!

 

OK. I'm done. I think I need some time to process.

First, love Felicia Day and all of your "oddities."  We're all "weird" in our own ways and that makes us interesting <3

 

Second, I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by all the new info and theories on the forums like you imply ^above^.  It has me feeling torn between wanting to read every thread on the forum, work on my DA costume, read DA books and work on Solas fan art, so instead I will do none of those.  Hopefully a little time playing something completely unrelated to Bioware will help :P

Aww thanks. That's much nicer than the  :blink: I usually get. ;)

 

I'm still trying to make my way through the Twitter thread, if you ever feel like venturing out of this thread that one seems to be a good source of information and people will generally speak about (or link to) other threads which have information worth looking at.

 

I was actually going to chug some cough medicine and go play Deadlight, but I don't even know what to do anymore.

So I've been looking at that picture of Solas and it occurs to me that we were all wrong. His hand isn't clipping.

 

Solas totally has the power to phase through rocks!!!

Nice, what a useful talent! ;)

 

 

Now about that photo comparison of Solas and Nicolas Cage? Solas doesn't look anything like Cage tbh...I now someone said earlier he looks a bit like a younger John Travolta...and he kinda does with that handsome cleft chin! :D

Wow.  I get up, nothing's going on.  I go to work, I come back and the forums have exploded.  Exploded with Solas.

 

I have to admit, I don't care much for his eyes.  And there's something "off" to me about his forehead.  But he's still cute, so we're good.  Not that it would really matter whether or not I thought he was cute, because, well, he might not be an LI and even if he is I may end up choosing not to romance him... the character is the important thing, really.  Romance is just a fun little add-on.

 

I'm triple-squeeing after seeing that Most-Likely-Cole character, too.  Because I am pretty sure you guys were aware of this, but, I totally want Cole in the party.  I can wrangle Solas into playing Cole's dad, maybe, when I am playing as the Dalish mage...

 

And I also agree that Dramatic Hands is hot.

 

Interesting that they have semi-confirmed all the party members with the new video...  Not fully confirmed due to not actually having announced them, but good enough for me.  Yay, Solas and Cole and... yay.

The way I see it, everyone in the group picture that has a weapon is a companion, and the ones without (Cullen, Scribbles and Leliana) are our different council members.

Sera's eyes look quite large, and though Solas' eyes are more normal, they still have a very large iris (and are still pretty big, just vertically narrow) We get to see lots of that beautiful color in there. In general a large iris makes the eyes seem bigger (see Koreans and circle lenses) so that might be it.
 
I agree on the sentiment of them being so tall, though. In the original game they were just between the height of humans and dwarves. If you think Solas looks tall, look at Sera in the image, she looks enormous next to Leliana.

  

I think my only issue with Solas' look is that he looks very like a human with elf ears to me. He lacks that sort of distinct alien quality like the elf who is my avatar.

I don't mind though. As long as that scar stays so I can occasionally whip out a save with a cool cut scene where he's a big Damn hero for T when he needs a reminder that us scarred folk can rock too!

I'm actually supposed to have a scar running down the middle of my face/along my nose because (according to my mom), when I was little, I managed to run myself face first into a wall with a broken tile. And I'm also supposed to have a scar running along the left side of my jaw from a horse riding incident which involved the crazy mare I was riding running me into a low tree, but my mother just wasn't having it and used cremes and such to prevent scarring (she's always told me that it's silly to have wished to have the scars, but I wanted them!) ;).
 
 
Making up stories for that sounds like a grand time to me! And it does make sense that it means more coming from strangers, afterall, I think what worries/worried him is that he wouldn't be accepted or would be looked down on for it

  

Scars are interesting things, they can take on a life of their own for people. As a fairly well scarred up person and a mother, I can't fault her. At some point you might get some epic ones, just don't hold back and have fun. If you do you do, if not, you have kept your pretty face and will never have people turn their nose up at you over it. :)

That's true, he's sure of my love as momma, but others are an uncertain quantity.

Nothing to be ashamed of! Everybody's got a scar somewhere me I have scar from having appendicitis at the age 15. Your kid should wear that like a badge of Honor " I went through something tragic and survived"! ^_^
I also want to say that if Solas is LI just remember the past 2 DA games have mostly given you a choice to let your LI live or not? so I'm sure it will be the same on this game....hopefully! But really I 100% don't want any of it to be tragic at all! But that's just me I like happy endings.

  

Well, in reality there was nothing tragic. But I firmly believe people should wear their skins with pride, no matter what they look like.

Yes. I'd love a happy "ending" too. Though it need not wrap anything up. I'd love to simply the options for the characters to simply "be." Marriage made sense for Alistair, but the devotion Zevran expresses with the earring is the same without the ceremony.

As long as it fits the character and they don't pull the bs that got pulled with Bishop where they killed him off between games. Obsidian... Rocks fall, everybody dies...

Whenever people talk about scars I always think of this quote. "What a collection of scars you have. Never forget who gave you the best of them, and be grateful, our scars have the power to remind us that the past was real." (Just pretend it was said by someone other than Hannibal Lecter and it will be more complimentary).

Agreed. Or at least... You're far from alone, I think we're all a little abnormal here, or we wouldn't be here at all, eh? ;)

I think my only issue with Solas' look is that he looks very like a human with elf ears to me. He lacks that sort of distinct alien quality like the elf who is my avatar.
 

 

Personally, I disliked the super-deformed look of the elves in DA2. Other than Fenris, Merill, and Orsino, they looked... kind of terrible. I really like the approach they seem to be currently taking, which are very distinct features that separate the elves from humans, but still make them look humanoid / from a common ancestor. Looking at the other screenshots of Solas and the image of Sera, it's fairly clear that they have similar features to Tallis--who looked very human, but still distinctly different. Kind of similar in the quality that Samara had; her bone structure and eye shape gave her a slightly supernatural quality, though she looked very human still.

 

That's my opinion, at least. I think it's a huge step forward in making elves look uniquely... well, elven, without making them look completely alien, which is fairly stereotypical in most DnD-rooted fantasy series, especially in comparison to both it's predecessors. 

 

EDIT: Also, I actually quite liked Bishop's demise as a character. I wouldn't have wanted it to end any other way on a major scale, because that was who he was--a character doomed to tragedy. He had no happy ending in store, because he wouldn't allow it for himself. He was too consumed by his own goals. Seeing him in the wall of the faithless was gutwrenching and incredibly well-done. While I desired a happy ending for him, I don't think it would do his character justice in the slightest.

His forehead is comparatively short to the rest of his facial features, that's why it looks "off".

Hm.  As others have pointed out, the War Room pic resembles the Last Supper (daVinci's).

 

If we go by who is sitting/standing where, then it looks like Solas would be a traitor.  I really hope they don't make him an LI and then have him betray us... again.  That would be way too much like Anders all over again.  And yet I wouldn't put it past them... they love doing that to us...

 

Maybe it would be smarter to romance Dramatic Hands... or maybe romancing Solas will keep him from betraying you... I have no idea.  I hope I'm wrong.
