We don't actually know for sure if the Quizzy has changed. No origin story playthrough kinda brings it into question on whether they changed or not.
Agreed. I'm not sure if my quizzy changed and it makes it harder for me to know a proper answer to it and I had a hard time answering Solas especially when he
He can dominate me if he wants.
While I don't exactly find it in-character, dom!Solas is my new Dragon Age guilty pleasure 
More in-character, I think what I found appealing about Solas's early flirts (especially the class-based ones) is that he's so confident without being domineering. He's attracted to Lavellan, and that's that. He doesn't feel the need to make it a big deal; he just declares it and leaves the ball in her court.

This may have been deliberate, so they could leave it up to the player to determine how much the Inquisition changed their PC (Anchor notwithstanding).
I wonder if Felassan is to Solas as Abelas was to Mythal?
Felassan has vallaslin, though. Solas isn't fond of those or what they represent. I don't think Abelas is a slave in the same way Fenris was or other Arlathan elves probably were, but I don't think Solas would differentiate much.
I wouldn't be surprised if they worked together in some capacity though considering his name.

I don't find it in character either but I like Solas out of character. 
My dears,
Felassan was killed by Flemeth in the Fade. Prior to finding Morrigan, we know she was hunting them down and simultaneously carrying out Mythal's plan for vengeance.
Remember Felassan said to the figure in the Fade that he/she was once powerless like Briala was, Before Flemeth became what she is, she was a powerless woman.
Plus I am sure Solas would have known the password for the Eluvian if it has his name on it.
I know that a third party has been brought up before, but I'm wondering if Felassan had another master that he didn't have much of a choice but to follow, but his true loyalty was with Fen'Harel? Maybe by betraying whomever his master was by not giving them the passphrase was him living up to the name Felassan because it's part of a plan he and Fen'Harel cooked up a long time ago and it's just now bearing fruit (can I stop with the plant talk already)? Maybe Felassan's betrayal was something his master never saw coming (like the beast and the slow arrow yeah).

I think that would be far too out of character for Solas. He may kill people by mistake or (mages who are really stupid and don't listen), but he's no cold-blooded murderer. And there is no way he'd have a slave, which is what Felassan's vallaslin signifies.
Unless Solas is a dual-personality or has play-acted the entire time we knew him, of course. (Which I think we can probably write off.)

Not a great fan of Ed Sheeran, but the video reminds me of Solas and Lavellan. I know it's just a videoclip and they are acting, I find it so sweet though. The way they dance, so sweet and intimate, their lips never meet. You can see they are both smiling, he never looks away, his eyes are always on her.
This is how I see them, and it hurts. 
(This doesn't mean I can't appreciate some good fanfics, though).
I'm sorry, I'm all emotional today. I played through the ending with my mage Lavellan and all the feels are back.
actually he doesn't say she reminds them of whoever they are, he say "she reminds me of..." and never finishes that sentence.
Yeah, but it's strongly implied.

The mages was a good example of what he can do when his passions are up. We know he puts his mission above everything else, if he thought Felassan had betrayed all the people, I could see him becoming angry enough to kill him. Not cold-blooded, but hot-blooded. And I don't believe Felassan was Solas' slave, but he does appear to have been an ancient elf. That's why I believe he was originally one of Mythal's followers, although I think he was working for Solas. For more perspective, a Lavellan who drinks from the well also becomes bound to Mythal, but she still continues to live her own life.
I know it isn't a popular view, but I just see Solas as being very shades of grey. I don't subscribe to the idea that he's all goodness or that he's just a secret villain. Look at the rest of the companions, some of them have done terrible things, even moreso than Solas supposedly killing Felassan for being a traitor. I don't believe anything we've seen of Solas has been a lie, but I don't think we've seen everything either, at least not entirely.
Come to think of it, I recall that Felassan's blood writing was specifically pointed out to be... odd. It would shift and change to suit his mood, if I remember correctly.
It's possible that Felassan's valassin wasn't true blood writing but a kind of disguise Solas gave him so he could travel among the dalish more easily, or manipulate Briala more easily.
Former Fiend diiiiid point this out in another thread.
I'm not so sure Solas would kill someone in cold blood, but if Felassan was working for him and he betrayed their big, super important cause which Solas probably deems righteous than he might have killed him. Though it still doesn't seem to be Solas's style.
I can see Solas killing someone believing he was in the right due to betrayal, but I can't see him owning a slave. That has been my biggest concern with the Solas killed Felassan idea. If the above is true than maybe Felassan isn't really a slave.
Just thought I'd share! I don't know how to post pictures from my phone, but his we will call him Fen for short and will use his full name when we're angry! He's a mutt but definitely has husky in him and he has blue eyes! okay I'll stop yapping about this!
I don't know!!! I never go anywhere else but here. I see some stuff on Reddit, but nothing terrible (surprisingly?) i just thought that the most popular romances were Cassie and Josie, and Solas was down at the bottom? And two of my friends who play are like "Yeah, whatever, that bald elf guy."
Actually, Solas is the most popular romance in the informal poll that's being done in spoiler scuttlebutt.
http://forum.bioware...nce-vote-share/
From my browsing of BSN (not just the character threads), tumblr, and reddit, I'd say that Solas is quite a popular character. Especially after people see the ending and replay the game. I've seen so many people say stuff like, "well I didn't think much of him until I saw the ending and then I immediately made a female lavellan to romance him because it seems really interesting." So I think there's hope. But I think we can also make a difference by being very vocal in our desire for DLC and closure with our Lavellans (and hoping for a happy ending). Bioware listens to their fans, and they've explicitly said that they're going to be taking fan demand into account when planning DLC. So if Inquisition is successful, and Solas is popular, then I do think we'll be getting more content.
GUYS GUYS I JUST FOUND A THING THAT I THINK YOU WILL REALLY LOVE VIDEO COMING SOON!!!!!
OMG
Oh, somebody likes teasing 
With all the talk about TME, is it worth reading?
The only other book I read from the series is Asunder.
I'm sorry, I'm all emotional today. I played through the ending with my mage Lavellan and all the feels are back.
Solas has me on an emotional pendulum. There there, have some sappy happy headcanons:
Lavellan hates sleeping in a tent. More often than not she winds up sharing with Sera, who snores to wake the dead. So she eventually gives it up as a lost cause and starts sleeping outside under the stars, only to find that Solas does the same thing. He likes listening to the sounds of the night, feeling starlight and night wind on his skin. The first time she joins him outside, he seems almost gratified that he's not alone any more. He tells her stories to soothe her into sleep, stories of gods and kings, heroes and ancient rebellions, stories of the People of old. Their bedrolls move closer and closer together each night, until they're near enough to feel each other's warmth.

The first few chapters of Orlesian stuff was a little slow for me, but once it gets going, it's a fun read. There's a lot of elven lore stuff later in the book which was really interesting. I liked it as much as Asunder, though the writing style is very different.
HEY OKAY!
I was playing around while editing videos and heard this weird part when drinking from the well of sorrows. I cut it out and put it in a new file. I reversed it and it does clearly say things when played backwards. YAY FLEMETH IS A CREEP!
I thought since everyone kept looking at the codex entries on the translated temple of Mythal writings, this would be cool.

I don't see Solas as being all sunshine and rainbows. He's capable of doing bad and destructive things and having beliefs I don't agree with (like stereotyping people that aren't from an Ancient Culture as ick). However, he is also compassionate and a strong voice for freedom. He cares about the refugees in the Hinterlands, the people of Crestwood, etc. He is moral.
What makes someone good, a villain, and gray? I'd say his moral character makes him lean more towards good while some of his actions and beliefs lean the opposite direction. The problem I have with seeing him in shades of gray is that it makes it seem like he morally grey or doesn't see things as right and wrong. He appears to think many things are objectively right or wrong.

I dont know if its him inthe story or not, but as far as being out of character... id say it depends on how central to his task it is. Solas wouldnt kill without cause and certainly takes no pleasure in it. But will he sacrifice something/someone for a cause he feels necessitates it? I think he would.

Thanks for answering!
Ah, ok, the orlesian stuff was the reason I didn't want to read it at all (I mean, I'm not into that so much and it's called Masked Empire, right?)... But I guess I can deal with a few chapters. I hope.
What I do find very out of character if it was indeed Solas, is when Felassan enters the fade to talk with him and tells the entity to let her give it a try
"Behind him, there was only silence. There would be no debate, no logical argument or impassioned plea. Felassan had known that when he sat down before the campfire"
Now I believe Solas could be many things that we haven't been made aware off but this just sounds like Solas on opposite day..If this is really him than I'm just gonna give up on the dude because that just throws my favorite qualities out the window 
Retour en haut
