I need that necklace.. NOW *_*
That would be awesome.
I would love to have those Inquisition pins that they put on the higher tier armours , like the Prowler armour.
Also there is a guy standing by Cullen's room talking to 2 other guys, he has exactly the same armour and the hood from wallpaper that graces our forums. If I was allowed weapons in Skyhold I would totally loot them from his corpse
Would kill for sentinel armor, too
I feel like it's missing alot of funny stuff from being an assquisitor.
Introduction of All new, fade for her quest:
Inquisitor: "I thought you didn't have any friends"
Solas: "I don't"
Later at the scene:
Solas: My friend!
Solas: Groans
Inquisitor: Wisdom Spirit my ass.
Ah I was never assquisitor.. that's why I don't know those haha I only have seen the punching part. I will make that one too haha.
I'm living with my sister and her three children under the age of five, so no valuable collectables that can be mistaken for playthings for me.
With that said, BioWare definitely needs to start creating the Solas merchandise. I want a Solas romance T-shirt! Or better yet, a blanket!! Then when people ask me what it's from I can be like "This is my pixel boyfriend from the video game Dragon Age. He broke up with me so now I'm going all stalker ex girlfriend on him! No I'm not weird!!!!"
YES!! A Solas blanket! So I can cuddle with him all night long!! It needs to be really soft and fuzzy. I want a Solas poster too...to hang over my bed..and his wolf jaw necklace. I'd wear that thing every day..I don't care!
Hmm... Solas figurine, Solas blanket, Solas T-shirt, Solas poster, the wolf jaw necklace... If we had all of that, we could make our very own Solas/Fen'Harel Shrine.

They really should capitalize it like the japanese and their francises. Make keychains, pillows, stickers, whatever of their charcters. Extra money to the developers pockers, commissioned artists, potentially fund more money into unrelated projects beyond just business investments.
Haha. I love the bonus ending.

When I first saw this, I was expecting the wolf to eat the halla. Why not? free breakfast, lunch and dinner. You see wolves chasing and killing halla all the time in the exalted plains.

I knew I should have chosen the Ghilan'nain vallaslin... but I have Mythal. So my Lav is not a halla, but... a tree? 
I wonder who she is because she looks like my Lavellan.. only with longer hair and no elf ears lol

That's another thing I love about this game. You run around and see behemoths fighting with giants or a wolf pack fighting some bandits. I just stand and watch and take all da loot.

I've too impatient to wait it out. I'd rather jump in and kill them both. If the fight is interesting because it's unusual, I do watch a little.

HA! Nice one. I would have likes to be an assquisitor , but I'm not sure I would get the amout of satisfaction as being full renegade in ME2. I stil have a huge crush on renegade FemShep. Pushing mercs through windows, snapping their necks...ahhh good times. I got the Malcolm Reynolds vibe.
From what I have gathered assquisitor is totally taking the fun out of it, in other words , she/he is just a bloody ****, narrow minded.

I was also renegade on mass effect but I don't find my lavellan to be mean.. she is just too kind :3 she is so innocent haha

I can't see my Lav as a bear... they're usually associated with maternal stuff right? Or am I making that up?
Definitely as a wolf though. What other scarey things live in the woods? Cougars? Wildcats? Hawks? So many different Lavellan interpretations! I like the Halla one, but It'd be cool to see other ones too.

The Solas Tower t-shirt sold out in S and M on the day it was released. WITHIN HOURS. Why EA is sitting on that kind of demand I have no idea.

Yeah... assquisitor has nothing on Renegade shepard.
I'll never get over renegade Shepard+Mordin. That was so messed up.
Ehhh, I totally understand and sympathize with Solas's anger. One of his oldest friends was essentially tortured and killed in front of him. I don't think it's fair to judge him as a whole based on his actions in a moment of extreme grief. He wasn't thinking clearly. Plus, I think if he had been in his right mind he never would have condoned killing the mages. It was a brutal display of power, and he hates those. He always approves of more complex judgements rather than simple executions (except in cases like Erimond, where it's the most just solution). Even though he disapproved of you stopping him in the moment, I think in the long run he's glad if you prevent him from killing the mages. And it's not like it's difficult to do. All the Inquisitor needs is a word. It reminds me of Garrus's loyalty mission a lot, actually. Albeit taking place in a very compressed timeframe. Really, all of the characters are capable (and willing) of brutally murdering someone for revenge. Even Alistair, who's usually really sweet, is all about executing Loghain himself.
I do understand Solas' anger. Still it shocked me that he would actually burn those mages to death if not stopped. It's more disturbing when people who are so calm and controlled snap and do something horrifying. Everyone has these triggers, it doesn't make them bad people. Solas' anger is the flip-side of his sensitivity and compassion. It perfectly fits his personality to lose control like that and let his idealism turn dark in that moment. Solas is not as in control of himself as he likes to be. And often those who are so repressed and deliberate in everything they do are in greater danger of snapping and doing something a lot more horrible than those who vent their emotions frequently in small bursts.
Idealism is a wonderful thing but it's also dangerous because it blinds us and can even make us quite biased and intolerant of everything outside our own moral framework. Solas' quest upset me so much because I want him to NOT let his idealism corrupt him. A person like Solas will always have to fight down his rage at the injustice of the world and learn to have better control over his tendency to look down on everyone who disagrees. Yes, it was a heat of the moment thing that he would regret doing, but I can easily see Solas turning into a villain eventually if he doesn't learn to deal with reality. Solas is stuck in a vision of the world that may not be feasible. He is short-sighted and too fixated on his goal that he fails to see that it cannot simply be forced. He's a great dreamer, his vision of the world is beautiful. But he makes poor choices because others don't have his mindset nor his pure ideals. Part of him knows this. And that's part of the reason why he is in so much pain. He messed up and doomed the elves. The guilt is eating him up. But here he is, making more grave mistakes because he wants his vision to become reality so badly...
And whenever people are this passionate about something, it more often that not turns bitter and dark. Many tyrants probably started out as good people who wanted to change something for the better. But you cannot force change on people externally. People need to reflect on their own and come to the conclusion themselves or they will only resist it. Society as a whole needs to change not be forced to change according to one person's vision of what's right.
I see Solas at a crossroads. He has a race supremacist streak that he needs to watch. He's more biased than some of the other characters. He's compassionate but mostly within his moral framework. He can be really cold and arrogant. Lavellan has a good influence on him and helps him become more understanding and open-minded. He was asleep for a long time, so he's still a bit stuck in the past. He needs to let go of elven glory and focus more on what benefits all races. Lavellan is his link to the present in a way. And she is the future. She shows him that not everything about current Thedas is bad. That not only his people are worth restoring. So in a way she makes him doubt himself and his plan. Makes him reflect more on what he really wants the world to be like. He knows that his plan will not be a gentle one. This transition will not go smoothly. And he can't even predict what will happen when all the magic will come back. He admits that a world without the veil is a dangerous thing if not met with proper precaution. He knows how to interact safely with spirits but others do not. He is aware of that. Still he holds on to his plan. But now there are people from this era that he cares about and it creates a conflict.
One big theme of Dragon Age (and Mass Effect too) is being blinded and corrupted. Everyone, even the gods, let vengeance or lust for power compromise them. OR idealism. Pretty much all groups follow some sort of vision blindly. The chantry zealots, the rebel mages, the rebel templars, every single villain and even the companions (except Cassandra of course 
).
I like Solas the idealist. But I worry that he'll get so wrapped up in his emotions concerning his spirits and the ancient elves, that he turns into a villain. And his personal quest was a scary glimpse at his darkness that he must fight against.
As I said, there is a lot of Solas in me. So *I* get a bit emotional too about it all. I want him to be a hero and do the right thing in the end. But I'm worried, especially now that he has absorbed Mythal who's already corrupted and set on vengeance. That can't be a good influence on him...
*clears throat nervously*Ah, not to worry anyone, but I think I may have figured out what’s going on with the Andrastean Maker (or actually “Makers”) – the how, what, and why of the neutral-but-blighted Sun trapped in the Void vs the evil-but-False Sun trapped in the center of the earth, how the Sun, lyrium and the blight maps into the sundered Song, and how the whole mess of known history ties into the Freaking Neverending War for the Soul of Thedas, but I need some help making sense of the veil and we have some crazy good brains around here. Heavy on the crazy, but that’s a good thing.So the veil is really dang old. Not just ancient elfy old, but Primeval Old. Kind of an obvious thing to start with, I guess, because it’s what made pre-veil-“Elves” into flesh-and-blood-Elves, but… and this is the hurdle I can’t wrap my mind around- why does its age seem to be patchwork? Thick and thin I would understand. But why are some places older than others?Crap. Unless that’s what that means. Thick is old. It’s been wearing away in spots over time, because spirits pressing and thinning- OH.OHHHH. Maybe.No, wait. It would still all be the same age, though. Unless the writers just wanted to avoid using the phrase “the veil is thick here”, because that’s… a strangely odd image.And even if you wanted to draw the tempting Veil Goes Up = Rebel Angel-Spirits Get Kicked Out of Eden, Enjoy Your Free Will Suckers connection, that ends up requiring two primeval rebellions: one to fail and cause the Veil to be raised, and a later one to succeed, because Sun in the Void. But then you lose the whole motivation for the second. Because He just gave you what you wanted. Right? Even if it wasn't exactly how you wanted it.*clutches head*Or maybe that wasn't what Elgar’nan actually wanted, even way back then. Not free will, not choice, but power. But if that's the case, how the hell did he convince everyone else to get on board with rebellion #2?Stop. Wait. Sorry. Not getting distracted. Back to the veil. Do we have theory on why it's older in spots? Suspicious spots like Skyhold? Where maybe we might otherwise expect it to be thin, because Fortress, and Fortress generally means war and fighting and spirits?
... I feel kinda like I just read a post by Sera, there. Most of that conversation seems to have gone on in your head instead of on the page, madrar. Expound a little?
Okay.. someone just started saying how Solas reminds them of Loki.. I can imagine him as Loki.. so well.. tricksters haha clever..

Spoiler
The renegades got scary in ME3. It was bad with Mordin, but if you got Wrex alive you put him down like a rabid dog in the middle of the Citadel.....you even space his body, because no one can know what you did!!! ****, ****, ASS!!! GODDAMN IT!
But the Citadel DLC made them fun again, like they were in ME2.
Anyways...how about dat Solas lol.
Hmm. Someone made a Fen'Harel vallaslin, right?Hmm... Solas figurine, Solas blanket, Solas T-shirt, Solas poster, the wolf jaw necklace... If we had all of that, we could make our very own Solas/Fen'Harel Shrine.

Oh, I'd definitely see my Lavellan as a wolf. It would fit her since my rogue Lav's card is a wolf. 
EDIT: Also, the whole "hunter" thing. Yup, a wolf would fit her just fine (why did that sound so dirty?).
