I don't think that single tweet implies anything. Even though I'm not with Team Optimism anymore, I don't get the feeling everything will end badly. If it does end with no options to even have a happyish (some form of not horrible) ending I'm going to take up drinking. Thanks Bioware!

 

On a side note, I watched all of Sera's romance cutscenes. She's hilarious and sweet and I love her, but I was COMPLETELY turned off  when

Spoiler

Damn you Sera! /shakes angry fist

Sometimes I really feel like I make no sense like her /sigh

I just want him to realize my Lavellan is totally ready to jump on the crazy train and go with it. I'll take that as a happy ending even if it ends up in some hot mess.

 

Herald of Andrate? My Lavellan hated being called that.

 

Herald of Fen'Harel.

 

My Lavellan is down with that.

 

Same. It wouldn't be the first time that one of my DA PCs jumped in on the crazy train. My Hawke let Anders live and ran away with him for goodness' sake. xD 

 

If I made Hawke go down the path of ruin together with her crazy apostate lover, what makes people think I wouldn't do the same with my Lavellan and Solas? :whistle: (Assuming the game allows us to go down that path at least.)

Simple. For the tragedy. Together in death and all that jazz. :P

 

I've posted this ages back on how I headcanon things going down with Solas and Lavellan if ever they were to fight each other and then Solas gets killed.

I'm selfish, I want Solas and Lavellan to be together so badly, even if it means killing her off as well.

Plus, killing off my Lavellan is probably a reflection of how I'll be feeling if Solas dies. (I'll be dead inside...)

 

 

Ah yes, I remember this now. Sigh. :(

I think it would depend on how the death was played out. I guess for me....

 

Lavellan has to kill Solas for whatever reason=Lavellan kills self or sends herself into the Fade or some craziness

 

One person kills Solas=Lavellan kills said person

 

Organization of some sort kills Solas=Lavellan crushes organization with Inquisition forces somehow and has a giant wolf carved into the mountains surrounding Skyhold

 

Solas dies because of the whole world being against him= Rampage. Like, "Release the Herald!" rampage.

 

Edit:Oh, and if it was the last option, part of the rampage would probably be Lavellan tearing down the Veil herself with the Anchor because I'm totally assuming that is possible. Last good bye present to the world before a rampaging mage gone wild death.

Yes, it would totally depend on how his death goes (if ever that is what Bioware intends for Solas' story to end). I have other sad headcanons ready for whatever Bioware throws at us at this point.

 

EDIT: I feel bad for doing this to my Lavellan because between her, my Mahariel, and my Hawke; my Lavellan is actually the one with the happiest backstory. :(

See, I thought of it the opposite way :)  I already did the crazy train tragic romance that ends horribly with my Hawke and Anders.  Killing her in the Fade only sealed the deal.

 

I'm ok with Solas's story being sad.  But he is not dragging my Lavellan down with him.  She's young, bright, resilient, and she actually WANTS to make Thedas a better place.  Despite all the heartbreak of the Solas romance, I'd say she came out of her game much stronger and less jaded than my other PCs.  I am not losing my only truly heroic Dragon Age PC to tragedy.

 

EDIT: And if Solas dies and Lavellan survives, I already have a bittersweet headcanon in place.  I may have thought too much about this right after finishing DA:I  :lol:

My biggest worry is that they're going to make him do something really OOC, like "SCREW THIS WORLD IMMA RELEASE ALL THE GODS EVEN THOUGH LOCKING THEM UP WAS PROBS A GOOD THING". Or "I KNOW WE JUST SPENT THE WHOLE GAME FIXING THE VEIL BUT I'M GONNA RIP IT AGAIN JUST CAUSE!!!!"

I just watched it too and now I'm jealous of all the lovey parts you get with Sera. I'm really fine with the amount of content for romance with Solas, but with her it seems like a lot more. I think it's sweet how she's genuinely scared to lose her Inky. But yes, I agree about having to deny being elfy. That's not really fair since being elfy was all Lavellen knew before the conclave, presumably, and it's just part of who she is. (Unless your headcanon is otherwise. I haven't ever really known someone who played an anti-elfy Lavellan, but then again I usually stick to the blanketfort.)

 

*waves shrinking team optimism flag* I am not sure if I'm truly optimistic about any future for Solas, but I'm open to all ideas and speculation. But I have faith in the writers. They worked so hard on his character that I really doubt they're going to just have something ooc happen to have an ending. They have plans, I'm sure! Something well written is going to happen!

Then your Lavellan is a much stronger person than my Lavellan. She did come out somewhat stronger from the heartbreak but a bit more jaded. (People have said that they became more positive about things after playing Jaws of Hakkon, but the JoH DLC is still not up on the Playstation Asia store so I haven't played it yet.)  -_-

 

I'm totally ready for my baby girl to follow the footsteps of my Hawke and go down the path of ruin and tragedy with her lover. :P

 

And on Hawke, didn't Weekes say that Hawke might not be dead?  :huh:

That sounds like some of the villains Blizzard has from the past.  Now all we'd need is Solas screaming, "LOSING THE ORB WAS MERELY A SETBACK!"

My Lavellan might consider helping him if the option is there, the reasoning/methods are valid, and certain truths emerge, but if things end sadly, she'll manage to go on somehow, with her friends and responsibilities, and the life she has managed to forge. All of her experiences are worth something.

 

My biggest worry is that they're going to make him do something really OOC, like "SCREW THIS WORLD IMMA RELEASE ALL THE GODS EVEN THOUGH LOCKING THEM UP WAS PROBS A GOOD THING". Or "I KNOW WE JUST SPENT THE WHOLE GAME FIXING THE VEIL BUT I'M GONNA RIP IT AGAIN JUST CAUSE!!!!"

 


I highly doubt this will happen, given a few things. One, they spent so much time seeding his character in the first two games and also through DAI before the reveal. They made him a highly layered person who genuinely cares very deeply though he carries complex emotions from all of this. He's self-denying, regretful, and even a little bitter to some degree, but he also can't keep from caring about others, despite trying to keep them at arm's length.....even attempting to teach or help the Dalish in some way, the people who utterly revile him (in their misunderstanding).

 

What Weekes said about making sure that Solas doesn't lie much, and that he treats the Inquisitor, especially a romanced Lavellan, with respect and isn't coming off as using her, these are important. And not signs of someone going cheap OOC villain or anything.

 

While his dedication to his goals could see him forced into an antagonist position, with Weekes taking over as lead writer for the series and the love he clearly has for Solas, it might wind up sad, but it will, IMO, remain true to character.

EDIT: With that said though, I'm still holding out for some hope that Bioware would at least give Solas a chance at a happy ending. I despise the thought that a sad ending seems to be what people feel is the "best ending" for Solas.  <_<

Bioware likes giving us options. I'm really confident that Solas will have a chance for a happier ending. I, too, despise that so many people think an ill fate is the only one awaiting our egg head.

If Solas dies or went in to uthenara, you can bet my Lavellan would physically go in to the Fade searching for him! But then it'd be sad, because she wouldn't know if she found him, or a reflection of him. ;(

 

Then your Lavellan is a much stronger person than my Lavellan. She did come out somewhat stronger from the heartbreak but a bit more jaded.

Even if Solas doesn't do it, I have to admit I would not mind seeing the Pantheon descend upon Thedas.....I mean....even if they are crazy and would probably be the bad guys.....

 

Plus, let's all admit. They would be hot. Right. I mean......I'm not alone in thinking this?

I mean, he really hints that he intends to carry out one or both of those ideas ... I must quote: 

 

*waves shrinking team optimism flag*

 

But we can keep telling ourselves "Solas wouldn't do that" ... I don't knoooow! How well do we really know him? How much of him have we truly seen?

The longer we don't have DLC the more faith I lose in Solas and read more fan theories. 

He has a lot to answer for... 1) the breakup (The real answer), 2) Orb to Corypheus (Really? Sure he thought it would kill him, but really? It was foolish), 3) Wtf did he do to Flemythal?

He's tried and failed how many times to right wrongs and just made things worse? Just go home, Solas.  

He's going to flub up again and there we'll be forced to judge him. 

Yep, there goes any shred of optimism.

As for the Veil, we did fix it, but removing it entirely is a different subject. It's metaphysical and what the tears and Breach did was to basically stress spirits out and drive them kind of crazy to the point of corrupting a whole lot of them, leading to more death and destruction.

 

Removing the Veil, as hinted when you talk to Solas at Haven, as well as

 

JoH spoiler

 

Spoiler

 

hint that if Solas is going to try and tear it down, repairing it first keeps spirits safe. To Solas, the pure nature of spirits is admirable. He doesn't want the Breach or violent tears in the Veil. He talks of forms of coexistence if people would just be more open-minded.

Yes! Options, Bioware, give us options!

Aww, that's pretty sad too. :(

 

Great, now I'm thinking of drawing out a picture of my Lavellan's death one day. I did have another sad headcanon in mind which doesn't involve her committing suicide but it's still a downer nonetheless.

 

Wow I sure quoted you a lot! xD

 

LOL! You sure did. :lol:

 

EDIT: Top again.

Whatever Solas does I expect it to be big, he seems to be a fan of a grand sweeping change that fixes everything rather than small changes that slowly start to make things better.
