Really excited about all the reveals of new companions lately!  Solas sounds much more intriguing than I first had thought.  Can't wait to meet him (and the other companions).

[dragondreamer]

About Felassan tho

 

Spoiler

He *did* end up betraying his mysterious boss (who is speculated to be DA:I's big bad) at the end of TME.  So if Solas did somehow turn out to be Felassan, wouldn't that make him on our side?  Maybe he joins the Inquisition because he's the only one who knows what's going on, but he's trying to help guide us without divulging how much he's really involved.  

 

...But if Solas isn't Felassan, but someone similar to him (working for big bad, etc), then we might have some trouble... 

[Kirie]

That's what makes it difficult is that I feel like almost all of the companions (minus Cole) could be seen as potential love interests. There's nothing about any of them that really scream "LI" (unless you are basing it solely on looks), but there's nothing that really says they can't be either. Idk.

 

I see nothing about Solas that really could be taken either way, SO I'm totally staying on the Solas LI hype train. If I get burned? That sucks, but life goes on lol

[Reznore57]

I don't think he's Felassan.

 

Spoiler

  But Solas seems like an easy prey for whatever is in the Fade.There's not a lot of dreamers anymore ...possible he's been send on a mission.Or he's honest. 

[Gervaise]

I think if anything Solas is more likely to be like his namesake Mordin and do a noble sacrifice because he wants to make sure it is done right.   I must stop doing these analogies with ME3 - I've already pegged Cole as EDI.    Seriously, I think it far more likely that you will drive him off than he will turn out a traitor.   Apparently you can resolve the mage/Templar conflict pretty early on in the game.   So if you opt for supporting Templars and suggest putting him and other mages into a Circle, I think you can wave goodbye to our lovely free thinker.  Ditto doing anything bad to Cole.

[jtav]

I don't think he's Felassan, just that he's very similar. And there's just something about him I don't quite trust.

[RebelishGirl(New)]

I love how people are finally coming around and seeing dat ass-, I mean Solas for the awesomeness he is. I don't think I've ever wanted a romance so badly.. He is just 

[BlueFlame527]

Banter/scene with Solas leaving with Cole:

 

*Cole is sent packing because the inquisitor thinks he is too dangerous and he is now on the road without his hat*

 

Cole: *crying* I can't believe I have to leave. Why do I have to be such a bad person!

 

*Meanwhile at the keep* 

 

Solas: I'm telling you inquisitor Cole is not as bad as he is made out to be! If you would just give him a chance maybe-

Inquisitor: Maybe what? He'll kill us in our sleep? No thanks! Demons like him deserve no sympathy! My decision is final.

Solas: Well if that's how you feel I'll leave too. 

Inquisitor: Fine. Go on then! The Inquisition needs backbone. If you cannot support my decisions then I could care less where you and that demon go.

 

*Solas leaves slamming the door disgraced that the Inquisitor is heartless and does not wish to follow him/her*

 

1 hour later Solas catches up with Cole. Cole looks back.

 

Solas: *puts hands on Coles shoulder* Looks like it's just you and me now. What do you say we go somewhere where we belong huh?

Cole: Ok...

I'm afraid that unless we specifically announce something, we can't really answer romance questions, sorry!

[Tiuwaz]

huh, he seems to me the most interesting of the male companions to have a romance with, yet I dont get any romance vibes/hints from him (as someone else already mentioned too)

 

but then I am a hetero guy, so no Idea if the ladies feel like that too. For me he is definately a guy I would like to travel with.

i think this needs reposting solassies 

[Eagle Pusuit]

On Twitter, Patrick Weekes says he is not Danish and grew up in a small town.

[Karm]

So, I disappear for just a few hours, and then come back to find that we have a potential VA, a quote, a blurb, new screenshots, and an interview which seems to have been accidentally released early?! Is it Christmas and nobody told me?

 

 

 

I had realized I couldn't see the interview since they took it away, but then:

 

Spoiler

[DRAGON AGE]: What can you tell us about Solas?

 

[PATRICK WEEKES]: He’s pretty straightforward, honestly. Just your average elven apostate who voluntarily joins the Inquisition in the middle of the mage rebellion to lend his expertise with the Fade.

[DA]: “Average,” huh?

 

[PW]: I like to keep it simple.

 

[DA]: There’s a lot of ground to cover with Solas, so let’s start with him as an apostate—meaning he practices magic outside the Circle of Magi. Did he escape with the rest of the rebel mages?

 

[PW]: Actually, he was never in one of the Circles to begin with.

 

[DA]: Interesting.

 

[PW]: Thedas is a pretty big place, and unless you go around burninating the peasants, you may never come to the attention of the templars.

 

[DA]: Without the Circle to provide training, how did he learn to control his power?

[PW]: Solas is largely self-taught; while he can comfortably defend himself, he cares more about exploring the Fade than he does about hurling fireballs.

 

[DA]: What makes the Fade so interesting?

 

[PW]: Okay, so, the Fade—bear with me, this gets a little weird—the Fade is the spirit side of the Dragon Age universe. It’s this incredible place full of dreams and memories, imprints left behind by powerful emotions or events in our world. Solas has trained himself to do something a lot like lucid-dreaming. He goes to ancient ruins where the Veil is thin, goes to sleep, and actually experiences the history of places no one else has seen in centuries.

 

[DA]: Is that sort of vision accurate?

 

[PW]: Absolutely not. It’s based off people’s memories, right? Ask ten different witnesses at a crime scene to describe what happened, and you’ll get all kinds of conflicting information. Solas knows that everything he sees in the Fade is subjective and imperfect. It’s like a gigantic Wikipedia entry full of “[citation needed]” notes, but still, Solas has found some amazing things.

[DA]: In past games, the Fade has been a dangerous place, full of demons.

 

[PW]: Yes. Most people in Thedas think of the Fade as demon-land… and Solas believes this is part of the problem. If you go into a realm that by its very nature reflects the thoughts and fears of living people, and if all you’re ever taught in the Chantry is that the Fade is this terrible place that wants to kill or possess you, then when you get there, of course it’s like that.

[DA]: Solas doesn’t fear the Fade?

 

[PW]: I’d say he respects it. It’s still dangerous, but because Solas found the Fade on his own, he went in without preconceptions, letting him explore the area and befriend spirits without the black-and-white mentality that holds back mages trained in the Circle. While everyone else guards themselves, assuming everything in the Fade is a threat, Solas will find a brilliant unimaginable light, smile delightedly, and move in for a closer look.

[DA]: Does that extensive knowledge aid him in combat?

 

[PW]: On the battlefield, Solas’s expertise with the Fade lets him manipulate magic in ways that would never occur to most mages.

Off the battlefield, when Solas sees a giant hole open up in the sky with demons pouring out of it, he knows that he can help where Circle mages cannot. As a result, although there is no guarantee they won’t locked him up as just another apostate, Solas comes voluntarily to the Inquisition.

 

[DA]: Did you find his character challenging to write?

 

[PW]: Writing Solas had its moments, yes. I personally love characters who are intelligent, characters who don’t necessarily break the universe they’re in, but who make players reexamine their own assumptions and look at that world in a new way. It’ll be interesting to see who thinks he’s fascinating and who thinks he’s out of his ever-Fade-loving mind.

 

[DA]: One would assume that opinions vary among his fellow companions as well.

 

[PW]: Absolutely. Vivienne is as loyal a Circle mage as you’ll find, so having this scruffy little hedge mage pop in and say, “You’re all close-minded, you should be making friends with spirits,” causes her to get icily disdainful as only Vivienne can. Solas and the Iron Bull also spar over Qunari beliefs, as Solas believes in freedom of thought more than anything else, and the Qunari tend to be pretty rigid there. On the other hand, Solas and Cole get along rather wonderfully.

 

[DA]: Because Cole is a spirit?

 

[PW]: Yes; Cole is trying to figure out what that means, and Solas can answer a lot of Cole’s questions. The two of them have fascinating talks about what it means to be a spirit, usually with the rest of the party watching the two with these narrow-eyed “What the what?” looks.

 

[DA]: In addition to dealing with the world’s perception of mages, he’s also elven. How does he deal with that much adversity?

 

[PW]: Honestly, Solas hates people who look at him and just see an elf. He considers that kind of attitude part of the black-and-white dichotomy that has led to so much tragedy in theDragon Age world. Templars versus mages, demons versus spirits, elves versus humans… it’s more complicated than that. Come to think of it, “It’s more complicated than that,” may actually be Solas’s battle cry.

 

RebelishGirl, I love yo face. A lot.

 

 

Today was a good day. Yep.

[Eveangaline]

So I'm wondering if he's a little country boy
probably the best way to not get noticed by Templars is get born on a little farm into a family that won't turn you in.

[dragondreamer]

I don't think he's Felassan.

 

Spoiler

  But Solas seems like an easy prey for whatever is in the Fade.There's not a lot of dreamers anymore ...possible he's been send on a mission.Or he's honest. 

 

Like a Pride demon?  His name...

 

Spoiler

Or Solas could *be* the big bad for all we know.  Felassan was killed by someone or something else that could walk the Fade.  I really don't think so, but the thought returns once in a while.

Aaaawh that's so cute.. it really fits him too

[ilikesocks]

Me
@PatrickWeekes Uh oh, will we have to deal with unrequited love for Solas like we did with Mordin?
 
It's totally open to a really evasive answer but I was too afraid to ask it outright >.<

Nonononononononono, Patrick Weekes! NO. *flails* *frets* *makes odd noises*

[Ispan]

I've never been more interested in that romance chart than I am right now.  I'm having flashbacks to the cast list for a school play being posted and my extreme disappointment at reaching the bottom of the list without seeing my name.  Please don't let that happen with Solas

[ilikesocks]

Also, if anyone here has a Twitter, my handle is: (big shock) i_likesocks Send me a request (profile is private because of weirdos) and I'll follow you back! Also, *ahem* please pay no heed to my current profile picture because I can't change it right now. :/

That's not a teasing reply. Should I be worried?

[CARPOOL]

I'M SO OUT OF LIKES NOOOOOOOO!!!!
(Or I would like the sad sad reject banter.

But yeah! Party like it's 1999. 
(Actually, I'd party like it's 1999 if he gets announced as a LI)
 

[Cezelle]

He's not replying with a joke. Should I be worried?

 

Well it's in response to someone asking if Iron Bull is romanceable, so don't be worried for us at least yet

[Ispan]

He's not replying with a joke. Should I be worried?

 

Oh, that wasn't a direct response to my Tweet, it was actually a response to a tweet about IB as a romance but it seemed fitting here too

 

Cezelle, you're too quick!

Danish lol. I didn't understand until I went to Patrick's Twitter haha.

 

Guys Solas is not Dalish since he has no vallaslin. He has met Dalish on his travels however. He grew up in a small village, not a city.
