Haha well we all seem pretty fond of DHMG in here (except maybe Nefla :lol:

 

As for the LI debate, weeeeeell it won't be pretty if Solas is the bi option and Dorian the gay. We're going to see a LOT of complaints about that, I predict. Such as: eeeew bald people  :sick:

 

And yet, to me it seems most likely that Solas will be a bisexual option, not only because he's an elf and "everybody" (the quotation marks added to mean not really everybody, but, you know...) is supposed to want the elves, but because he appears to be one of the first people we'll run into, in most playthroughs (he is shown in-party with Cassandra and Varric, whom I presume will be the very first companions we get).  I somehow doubt they would want to lock out the LGBT community from one of the first characters we meet, because those are usually the main ones.  Anything less than letting everyone have him, is basically saying their preference is not as important...

I actually love Dorian's vivid blue eyes in the fan art.  <3

 

Solas has pretty interesting eyes, too, though. I'm still thinking that violet might be some kind of tie back to Felassan. Definitely a big coincidence that they'd both have violet eyes when it's something we haven't seen on another elf that I remember before.

 

I thought maybe they were making the elves have odd eye colours in an attempt to make them a little different from humans now that they no longer have giant eyes.

Yeah we definitely meet Cass and Varric very early on then I think we'll meet Vivienne next and Solas after that. They'll be our first four, which makes sense considering I think they'll be the four most important companion characters.

If I had my way the male LI's would be Solas, Iron Bull, and Varric (or Beardy). :bandit:

Yo DHMG fans, on a scale of 1 to fan sobbing how disappointed will you be if Dorian doesn't end up actually having blue eyes? That seems to be a popular idea!

 

Personally I would be fine with it. Brown eyes would go well with the tall, dark, and handsome thing he's got going.

 

Scratch the tall part actually. He's amusingly short in the trailer, which I hope is a thing. He's shorter than Solas, and approx the same height as Sera. Lol.

I guess about a 5 if fan sobbing is 10. I really do love the striking look of them in the fan art, but he's still really attractive in the war table scene without a clear view of his eye color. He looked way better than I was expecting, so I'll still be happy if he doesn't change much otherwise. lol

Meh, f*ck 'em. I could care less if they don't like Solas. The whole "eeeeeww bald people" is dumb in my opinion. They can complain all they want. I'm just gonna enjoy looking at all the hot guys I get to romance. ;)

 

True that! The bald thing is really striking to me though. I can't help but think that if Solas had a full head of curly black hair, nobody would be saying a word (well much less people anyways. There will always be someone who looks at even the most attractive character and somehow manages to call them ugly).

 

What if....what if threesomes were possible in this game? I highly doubt it but oh the glory! The glory! I would be all over that!

I'm about the same! Only because a guy with dark hair and blue eyes is my real life ideal and if DHMG has that, then he'll have it goin' on even more! Though I wouldn't be opposed to a warm brown or a striking green. I think green would suit him too.

Considering how big IB is, two people are probably needed  ;)

 

Oh the possibilities! Solas/Dorian/Inq would be my ideal. But Dorian/Cullen/Mage!Inquisitor sandwich, oh gosh. Maybe squeeze Cass in there somewhere...

Well to be fair, their eyes, according to the novels, were always meant to be unusually intense.  More vibrant colors, and maybe larger than human eyes, and more reflective (they see particularly well at night, compared to humans).  And yet, Fiona had brown eyes, but they were just as intense as Katriel's green eyes.  Felassan's are violet, which--I'm like Mort--I suspect may connect Solas to Felasan somehow.  Related, or something, or... maybe their eyes become violet after being in uthenera?

 

I have no idea...

Their eyes are violet because that's the color of the laser-beams they can shoot out of them. Duh.

 

But really I think if Solas's eyes ARE violet (and it's up for debate because I swear I see a different color every time I look at them) I would think it would have to be connected to Felassan in some way. Thats too much of a coincidence.

The dark hair/light eyes combo is my boyfriend's type and the fan art I showed him sold him on Dorian since he wasn't digging the 'stache. (Blasphemy around these parts, I know!) So, I don't want to be the one to tell him it's not happening. lol

Well, it wouldn't HAVE to be.  Violet eyes in human beings are pretty rare, but with elves having unusually intense eyes, it might not be so uncommon within the elves of Thedas.  But then again, for all we know, it might have once been the mark of nobility in elves in ancient times.

 

Still, while I feel like it is a striking coincidence, along with his being a Fade expert and having heavy dark circles under his eyes (as Felassan was described as having), there may very well be no connection whatsoever.  Sometimes, a coincidence is just that.  And yet, if there's something to that coincidence, I suppose we'll know it the moment they tell us that Weekes wrote Solas.  If anyone else wrote Solas, we can just mark it out as a coincidence and nothing more.

Maybe it is connected to him. I am not a Felassen fan though, so I hope not. :P

Well, I didn't like what he ended up doing in the novel, but you can't argue that he wasn't mostly decent to Briala.  Mostly.

 

I don't think they would be the same person, unless, you know, demons.  But they may be connected, via nobility, or blood relation, or something else.

 

I kind of have a weird theory that elves would be human, if not for magical influence--because elven traits like eye or hair color can be inherited, but anything distinctly elven disappears forever from the children of an elf with any other race.  If that theory held true, then something like violet eyes could just as easily be due to magical influence.

I want him to be tied to Felassan, because I think it would hint he's more complex and tied to the story. Just being a normal apostate is.. I don't know, I don't want to say boring. It's just not as interesting to me, I guess.

It's late and I'm tired and now I'm giggling so much imagining Solas stepping the wrong way and just completely tearing the back of those super tight pants. It's bound to happen eventually, let's be real.

 

Also, how do you think Solas would dress if he was here in modern day? Maybe he'd be wearing really tight hipster skinny jeans!

What if, though, that idea about violet eyes = nobility turned out to be true?  And elven nobles have been planning from the Fade, or the realm of the eluvians, to retake what they lost?  What are a few hundred years, if you're immortal, anyway?

You might want to spoiler tag that first line, because it implies something happened and Ispan hasn't finished the book yet.

And while having Solas connected to Felessan would be interesting, I find the concept of someone in Thedas doing their own research and being unconnected to anyone more interesting, though that is more than likely not going to be the case.

 

Edit: Mort, I think I covered your comment with what I said despite not seeing it until after I hit reply. :)

I dunno, he seems like an outdoorsy type.  Part of me thinks the tight pants are probably because it's all he could find/acquire.  Or maybe he made them himself and just isn't very good with sizing things.  Because let's be honest, those would not be very convenient or comfortable traveling trousers.  Actually tight leather is about the worst kind of thing you could wear for armor, if you were heading into combat... it would restrict your mobility horribly.  Not to mention the things it'd do to your circulation.

 

But the tight pants are yet another point in his favor as a romantic interest.  You notice Cassandra, a confirmed LI, also has tight pants.  They're more than likely showing off that elven behind for a reason, ladies and gents, and it's not because he's secretly a body builder.
