I often wonder if that's just how he's always dressed, like a vagrant... or if he's purposely "dressing down" because he doesn't want to show off his Elven Glory????
Both?

Awwww! He wears all the clothes he owns? I bet he's happy whenever the Inquisitor hands him some gear (even the crazy plaidweave one)
What're some good Solas related tumblrs to follow?
*busts in door, breathing heavily* YOU GUYS, I figuratively ran here to say hi, because I've been busy, and haven't even touched these forums since... a few days ago. I guess it seems like more time in my head... no matter.
HI.
Also, um.. @Colonel, get your guy out of my game, kthx. ![]()

It looks like a combination of camouflage and practicality. Like you said, partly to dress down so he appears humble and beneath notice, and partly because many thick layers is just practical for outdoor wilderness survival. (As one major killer is hypothermia.)
Someone has probably mentioned this song before but just in case...my friend showed it to me and I've been dying in feels ever since.

What're some good Solas related tumblrs to follow?
Hmm, I don't really follow Solas-related tumblrs despite the fact I share a lot of Solas-related fanarts from Tumblr (believe it or not). I tend to follow artists and screenshot blogs so I could share to you some artist blogs and screenshot blogs that have a lot of Solas in them. ![]()
These are some of the blogs I could remember off the top of my head.
Some awesome artists on Tumblr who do great Solas or Solavellan related art. ![]()
Blogs that have great Solas/Solavellan stuff but can get NSFW.
Beautiful screenshot blogs with lots of Solas:
Lafaiette writes a lot of great Solas and Solavellan headcanons: http://lafaiette.tumblr.com/
And of course if you want to dive into the dumpster and have some crazy fun times, Vhenantrash is the blog for you!

EDIT: Added in some more artists. I'll add more if more comes into mind.
EDIT2: Roguebait does some awesome Solas-related artworks, poetry, and fanfictions: http://roguebait.tumblr.com/ ^__^

I defy his camouflaged humility and put him in some of my finest fabrics.

You don't know!? That's his laptop bag! He RP's as a 25 year girl on the internet and writes smutty crack fiction - here - http://vhenantrash.tumblr.com/

Same. I wind up putting him in the ancient elf armor with fancy brocade. You can't fool me, silly egghead ![]()

I put him in those the first time I played the game because I was like 'eh, he's a nerd. maybe he'd like them.'
And then afterwards I felt like the worst person ever. like. hey everyone and everything you cared about is dead, wear this constant reminder of that everywhere. lmao!

But he looks hot in them! And I can only worry about Solas's feels for so long before I have to go back and take care of my Lavellan's feels. And you know what she needs? EYE CANDY. Suck it up, egghead, because after you leave, it's open season on Avvar ogling ![]()
But he looks hot in them!
Well that is definitely true. I'm not saying I never had moments of weakness and just made him wear them anyway.
Legit tho: why do all of his outfits have to look so… not good.

I find him so hot in the blue fancy silk brocade. Not quite a fan of the elf robes, as I currently have him in battlemage armor, but that blue is now like my canon Solas color.

LOL, lemme tell you about not good. I picked up a set of armor that was an upgrade, but had the ugly yellow plaid. So I didn't wanna inflict in on Viv or Dorian, but it had the best stats, and I figured Solas wouldn't mind.
Then I got the Fade Kiss. In the F***ING YELLOW PLAID. I considered switching the armor, but it made me laugh so hard at Solas. It was like, "You're gonna kiss her like *that* wearing *THAT*?! Oh Solas you sexy loser."

He wears this to get chicks to feel sorry for him and bang him. Works dunnit?
"Bae, I'm poor. Throw me a bone, here." Badum tsss. "Arooooo!"
Going back to bed now...

I want to deny it, but part of the initial charm was the pathetic understated dorkiness. I am trash.
So when I was lying in bed last night, in that awesomely comfortable state between wakefulness and sleep, I had a chunk of Solas' dialogue repeat in my mind, and it occurred to me that not a single one of GDL's deliveries of Solas' lines fell flat for me. I honestly can't think of anything Solas says that sounds anything but good, as far as the voice acting is concerned.
So I fell asleep thinking, hot damn, we really hit the jackpot with voice actors in general in this game, and doubly so for Solas. GDL is just so spot on for Solas' character. I feel like a good 80% of my affection for Solas is caught up in what he says and how he says it. So. I might have to build a co-shrine to Patrick Weekes and GDL: the former for writing the best character and accompanying dialogue ever, and the latter for having a wonderful voice coupled with the ability to convey metric ****-tonnes of nuanced emotion.
*fan-girling hard*
P.S. - What's everyone's favourite Solas dialogue? Romance, general, antagonistic, party banter or otherwise. Tell me plz, so I can read the dialogue back in the voice in my head. ;3
