I'm just thinking about the tweet where he talks about writing a not straight white male character. And while it could be a homosexual white female character (like the Empress) or some other combination, my mind went to Scribbles as a possibility. 

I'm always confused that no one thinks this is referring to omnisexual Iron Bull. He's a Qunari, definitely not white, he's omnisexual, as far from straight as one can get, etc. It didn't have to mean a gay, PoC, female...

Apologies for being late to the party, but the whole "Solas keeps a kitten in his pants" subject made me think of this:

I found more Solas armor, and I'm loving the vest.

Yeah I was thinking that as well. It was probably Iron bull who sleeps with everything he doesn't feel he won't breakxD

I've been thinking lately he was talking about Empress Celine too, she might have a part in the game as well...or it could be scribbles like you said,just have to wait and see.

So judging from what we know of Solas so far what is everybody's guess as to what beliefs he may have? Do you think he may believe in the Creators like the Dalish, the Maker, or will his open mind will stretch him so far as to not constrict himself to one set of beliefs?

I'm going to guess that the answer to his beliefs is truly "it's complicated."  I can't see him adhering to any single set of beliefs when he has such a unique perspective.  My guess is that he will be happy to debate any set of beliefs with anyone and leave them confused about what he actually thinks.  Could be funny.

An interesting question, I'm going to go out on a limb here (;P) and say he NOT an Andrastian, but I'm not certain he'll follow the Dalish beliefs, either. Mainly because he wasn't raised in them. I would also imagine he'd have quite possibly seen things in the fade that might debunk or support them, just as Andrastianism. Hmmmm.... Such a great question.

This. He has quite possibly constructed his own set of beliefs which might be closer to Chinese Buddhism than any other real world analogue.

That sounds likely :)  Though I'm sure that he will be very one-sided about the Qun which is why I did not list it.  He seems to value the ideas of freedom so I could see much personal debate going on between Solas and Iron Bull. 

 

Edit: @Cat Lance you make a good point about him possibly debunking Andrastianism. I could see Solas being one of the reasons why Cassandra could struggle with her faith.

I'm kind of spiraling off from the religious conversation, but the thought just popped into my head is that his fade walks correlate well to near death experiences in the way they can debunk or support religious views. Could be why he is quite possibly on the Death card in the tarot. After all, who knows if the person who put it together researched or in any way was interested in traditional tarot meanings...

I can see the death tarot card as representing Solas' fade connection. Isn't that where living things that die are said to pass through? He also likes Cole who is speculated to be a demon/spirit/shade. Maybe it is his connection and interest to things not material or non-living. 

Another idea I just thought of is that he seems to like hanging around ancient places. He could just be the only one in the group genuinely interested in how things died off.

Okay I'm trying to see if I have everything for a Solas cosplay checklist.

  1. A union suit or two piece long johns (top grey, bottom black) 
  2. knee high dark brown leather boots
  3. Matching oversize belt 
  4. Jaw bone necklace
  5. Dark brown/grey vest 
  6. Two yards of fake fur to add to the collar and bottom of vest 

You think I have got everything listed that someone would need?

Hmmmmm....I am going to go nuts settling on my third squad spot, obviously.

I looked it up out of curiosity and yes, apparently jawbone necklaces are not such a strange thing to want to buy! I'm actually a bit fascinated looking through all the options!

It kind of funny that all you need to a trip to a Bass Pro shop to make a Solas outfit.

His backpack? Optional accessory perhaps but useful?

Taxidermy jewelry is rare to find, but since the show Oddities the demand for it has goon through the roof.

Oooh make sure to show us some pics once you are done!  ^_^

 

 

There could be a chance that Solas has his beliefs in the creators or the maker or not we don't know...we'll see once we play the game.  :)

You just gave me my random and interesting fact of the day. Thank you ;)

 

btw how much do they usually cost?...Actually nvm I'll look that one up.

 

Edit: Wow just looked it up, they are pricey on some sites! Think I'll pass on buying one...was not interested in buying any anyway but was curious nonetheless.

I don't know if I will cosplay him, but I found that his look was so easy to recreate in an everyday outfit. I just thought I would be fun to bring to light just easy his look would be to make. I may try to make an outfit first. I would like to go to Dragon Con, but the way my college has set up their calendar I don't think I could go. Plus, I'm saving up for a new consol for DAI.

Oh okay well it's up to you if you make that outfit or not...but if you do I'm sure I ain't the only one here who would like to see it!  ;)

 

And Good luck on getting your console. :)
