I really think this is worth a dlc and would be more than willing to pay for it - like, a lot, bioware. I can't help but feel that the ending left us on a cliffhanger, and you just can't do that. Please don't go the way of Mass Effect 3 Thane though - better to leave it a cliffhanger than bring us back in just to kill him - that's just cruel.
Solas romance and a request of the bioware developers

I've never made a post here before, but I felt it necessary considering the impact the Solas romance had on me. I've never gotten so emotionally invested in a game before. This is also my first Bioware game (can you believe it?) and I was so, so impressed by the powerful storytelling and character development. The voice acting for Solas is superb. I also love Cole! I've had them in my party whenever possible.
I am in complete agreement that we need a Wolf Hunt DLC! I really hope Bioware can ease my pain somehow. I want more Solas... no wait, I *NEED* more Solas! ![]()

Yeah I'm joining this as well. Still upset over Lavellan's heartbroken little face when he dumps her. She needs a wolf hunt. We NEED a wolf hunt. :'(

Add me into the mix that wants this as well. However I don't want to find out more about Solas with another protagonist in a sequel. I don't want him mentioning our inquisitor in passing with a throw away line. That is why an expansion or a really well done DLC is a must for my Lavellan; I as the player have a good idea what's going on with the situation (or at least I think I do) she doesn't. I will be satisfied if he's in future games as long as he gets DLC, like how I was extremely satisfied with how they handled Morrigan.
Agreed, I also hope for some kind of Solas DLC/expansion with the Inquisitor. I'd hate to only find him with a new protagonist.

I *need* this to happen. The Solas romance was the best romance in any game, book, show, or movie that I've ever experienced. I absolutely fell in love. That being said, I can't help but feel even a little bit devastated at the end, I just kind of feel like I was in ecstasy with that romance, then I promptly fell off a cliff and died on impact. I was honestly crushed at the end, because the pessimist in me says this is the end for the inquisitor and Solas, but I need more! I neeeeeeeed it!
And to reiterate what others have said, it needs to be with this inquisitor. It wouldn't feel right if after all they'd been through that was how it ended just for him to end up in the arms of another person. No.

I think the cruelest thing they could do would be to go into the next game without the ability to have closure for our Inquisitors. I'm still holding firmly to my belief that the Dragon Age series is better off with new protagonists each and every time. However, if keeping the Inquisitor going forward is the only way to see the end of Solas' story then I'd be alright with seeing Crythwen again in another game... I really want an expansion though, even though people say it's too expensive.

I don't think this is limited to just one character or romance arc. Your first playthrough will always be unique and special, because you know what you get with that romance arc you want to play that story again or you don't want to disappoint that character etc. Alistair was much like this, he sounded so much like a baby if you tell him you are interested in someone else that you just had to dump the other person to sleep with him >.>.

I vote for a Wolf Hunt Expansion or even another game centering around the Inquisitor. Bioware, you don't know the amount of money I will throw at you for that to happen.

I accidentally posted this in the wrong thread so I'll just paste it here...(I blame working at the time...)
"I think what stings the most is that a Solasmancing femLavellan Inquisitor is the only one to be left alone, as far as I know it's possible to keep all other LI's through choices, I know it's very plot relevant and there was no choice, but it still hurts."

I support this wholeheartedly. I tend to loftily consider myself reasonably rational when it comes to how severe I allow my fangirling to get, but this character really got to me. On a ridiculous level. It feels silly to say, but I would honestly feel sort of betrayed if this was handled badly. I'm so emotionally invested in this that it's bordering on pathetic. It is my firm belief that it would be utterly pointless to revisit this amazing character with a different protagonist; insulting, even. The inquisitor is significantly connected to Solas (regardless of what kind of relationship they developed). It would matter to him or her what Solas is doing, regardless of whether they might want to stop him, join him, kill him or make out with him. The relationship is what makes him so interesting. Encountering him with a new protagonist would feel so deeply disappointing. I'd spend the whole time wondering what could have been, and I would possibly even be reluctant to buy a sequel to this game if it meant encountering Solas with a different character. That would be a first for me too, because I usually can't get my hands on Bioware games fast enough. ![]()

You see so much more to Solas when you romance him. I would hate to be forced to play a new character and not have that connection with him. For what little we got in the relationship, it was definitely the most emotionally captivating in the entire series. There's so much more I wanted to know about Solas. If he's included in any DLC or expansion packs at all, I'd hope we get the chance to spend more time with him.

I also want that the Solas romance could continue in future DLC because if it's possible then there is a huge chance that it's the best romance ever and I'm including all the TV series and movies in this. So more Solas please!

When I bought this game, I was like "omg, why does it cost SO MUCH", but now I'm willing to pay at least the same amount of money for DLC with Solas, 'cause - please, he promised to explain *_* He can't just leave Lavellan like this, it doesn't feel like an end, and it keeps hurting so much ><
Please, please, please give us more Solas.

I unintentionally fell in love with Solas. I thought at first I would ride the bull, but started a Cullen romance instead. Not a big deal, no huge setback. I'd just start a Bull romance in my next game. Then I got to the Fade and saw the tombstones... 
And I just couldn't... I was all "aww, poor babu" and immediately made a new Lavellan (I had been romancing Cullen with an elven mage inquisitor). I thought he was going to be a boring fade nerd egg man, and instead he was a sassy, kinky fade nerd egg man who breaks more hearts than the inquisitor seals rifts. Like what the heck, Weekes!! Now I can't bring myself to romance anyone else.
Friggin' Bioware be all like
Anyway, as a side note I looked through this forum and kept seeing all the posts about Solas being manipulative and how the romance isn't going to end on a good note. I don't believe Solas was manipulative at all. He always respected the Inquisitor's decisions, though he might not have always liked them. Like any real person, he has his own beliefs and convictions. That doesn't mean he's manipulating you. It's natural to feel like he abandoned you and your inquisitor. I personally feel like he had every intention to explain everything, but he didn't expect the Foci to break. Lelliana's report even says he was clearly distraught when he was last seen. So perhaps he intended to use the Foci to explain everything to Lavellan, but felt like he just couldn't when it was broken?
Anyway, I am totally on board with the Wolf Hunt type of DLC. Because it just seems like Bioware is keeping it open for something like that. Lelliana even says she is keeping her men on a search for Solas. Mostly because I think she doesn't like that she fumbled with him and who he truly is. But still, I feel like Bioware is keeping that option open for later DLC.

There seems to be a lot of exposition I missed, despite talking to Solas at every opportunity. How much of his dialogue is dependent on romancing him? I don't recall him saying that the elves were once immortal, for instance.

Damn. I wasn't planning on playing a female elf, but after reading this thread I'm really tempted now.

I actually romanced him in my second playthrough because I thought I could handle the inevitable end, ugh I was so wrong, and I can't reroll and romance someone else because Solas' is the best ![]()

There is no freaking way that Lavallen can just go back to being a leader, ruler, or to her tribe life... etc...
She's has physically walked the fade (it's been 1000 years since that happened)
twice, knows of the old elven "roads" and was taken there.
Is loved romantically by an "immortal" .
Loved immensely, by the people (or hated and feared).
She held the power of old elven Magic in her hand.
I'm insistent on the thought that she is not, a normal, to even the elves.
I don't think a normal could have held the anchor.
On my second play through, in wicked eyes and wicked hearts, the entrance to the
*starts tearing up* dance scene. Morrigan and Solas give each other... A look.
Like they know each other, there is pause.
I don't know, it just saw it like they ... Did that .... hi I know you nod, but I'm keeping my mouth shut.
I just cannot help but feel, that Lavallen is on her way to roam with the elven "gods".
I just don't see a return to what's normal, for her (in the romantic play through).
Everything she did (if you play good girl) was opening old elven ruins, open wards to protect, taking on the secrets from the runes,
Releasing the spirits trapped by the stupidity of the followers... Even the damn castle, lovely Solas leads you to, is built on sacred elven ground. ... "Where the earth meets the sky". Full of old elven Magic.
The quote that sticks out with me, so much this go around... "Your God is really looking out for you, little wonder".
The whole time, I'm guided by Solas, for Falon'Din, or Dread Wolf, or who ever his spirit is...
He fell in love with Lavallen...
And he is a sad sad adorable lil sad elfy when he has to break it off.
Lavallen is too big to just have a normal ending.
She may have set the world straight, but the elves are not done yet.
And she does need her, perfect, beautiful, magical elfy to help guide her
Further to rebuild what was lost.
And I still feel, that Cole plays a large role in their communication or wolf hunt.
He is the spirit of compassion, and I let him remain a spirit, I feel that choice does have
Impact later. As with Iron Bull, sad to kill off his chargers? Yes, but it opens up a powerful
Ally with the Qun. Which will be needed, the elven dream will need protection.
Everyone will need to come together, the Tevinter and easily corrupted warden types are still out there.
~Fin~
Jeeeeez I'm wordy ... Lol

Little off-topic, but I'm curious about something.
How many of you allowed Solas to kill the mages and how many of you drank from the well? I've been considering doing both in my playthroughs but I'm genuinely afraid of what would happen if I did. I figure the killing part might just be him being Fen'harel... but the well part makes me nervous since he's all "no, don't do that. I won't do that, either. She shouldn't do that. **** everything!"
