Welcome all!
When I find more I will bring them again here.
Some I know is being made - in touch with the artists and they doing it for me, so excited to see them completed :'D
And a way to keep the thread alive and "active". :>

Fics - Abelas/Lavellan - Sort of NSFW - implied
http://archiveofouro...hapters/7094669
I recommend all heartslogos' Abelavellan stuff. Most of them are SFW. They make me happy.
OH, my. That fic is awesome.
People who release pictures of their own attempts at recreating Abelas in the CC but don't show the sliders MAKES. HULK. ANGRY!!!!!
Sliders would be ideal. I have a save sent to me by rach-mel90 on Tumblr. http://impossicatbug...rach-mel90-if-i
If you are on the PC I can upload it for you. It's default World State and he is a mage.

Sure!
rach-mel90 perfected her Abelas and sent me his sliders. She gave me permission to share them too! So here it is. I uploaded a back up on media fire as well.

I don't have time to load up the game and take pics so this is just a quick one from the rar.

NOTHIN BUT LOVE MAN, NOTHIN BUT LOVE
And it seems I got an answer from our reclusive elf after all:
Original question:
Mythal'enaste. Abelas, if I may be so bold, lethallin, can you tell us (your loving and devoted fans) your age?
His answer:
Mythal’enaste. You are too bold, but duty compels me to answer. I am ancient, but even all among the People were born from a mother’s womb. It was during Arlathan’s height — what petty squabbles yet existed were not enough to pry loose the stones of the towers we built.
I will not dredge the bones of Elvhenan from the mire of time. But know only that I am over four thousand years, by the reckoning of the People, and I have seen empires ground to dust and memory.
My comment as I reblogged:
His answer was so perfect and impersonated Abelas so divinely I read it in my mind in the character’ own voice. Glad there’s such an amazing tumblr devoted to our beloved guardian. ![]()
Thank you, lethallin! May the Dread Wolf never hear your footsteps. ![]()

Just... precious. ![]()
His tumblr is path of sorrows, if anyone is interested to follow.
I know them very well, they are an excellent writer.
One of my art was inspired by their reply of my question and also to treasure their dedication I drew one Abelas for them by their request in theme "Temperance" which they using as avatar on their tumblr :>

When we finally get a way to change our Inquisitor's appearance in the game, I will share my sliders of how I designed my Quizzy Abelas. I have the PS3 version, but I don't think anything is so different between the last gen consoles and the current gen in the CC. I can't make scars, but that seems to be about it.

I remember seeing this artwork! It's beautifully done! ![]()
Is Abelas a mage? I have been thinking that he is a mage but I can't find any information to confirm if that is true.
His name means sorrow:

I'm pretty sure he is because he will attack you if you don't solve the puzzles at the Temple and just barge into it, instead. He uses a blast of blue energy from his hands that can only really be interpreted as magic. I think the Quizzy and Morrigan will get shocked and fall backwards from it, too. It happened to me the first time I played Inquisition because I didn't want to solve those elaborate puzzles.
According to lore, everyone in ancient Arlathan wielded some degree of magic. Now, is Abelas a mage the way Fen'Harel or even Flemeth are mages, not likely. But, compared to circle mages in the Dragon Age - I think it likely he would be on par, at least in some respects. I would guess in Arlathan he might have been an arcane warrior as it seems a suitable spec for a temple guardian, but I could be wrong.

Because of that blue energy I thought that he is a mage but he doesn't have a mage staff which was confusing. Although I don't see him carrying any other weapons either.

So he could have been a normal elf in ancient Arlathan or maybe not that normal because he became a sentinel. But not necessary a mage. Although arcane warrior seems to be suitable specialization for him but for some reason I just keep thinking that his specialization is elven priest and he is a mage. I don't know why because that kind of specialization doesn't exist. But then again so much information about ancient elves has lost so they could have had classes and specializations that don't exist anymore or nobody knows about them.
I started to write fan fiction about Abelas. Here is the first chapter

Solas essentially says that all elves had magic "once upon a time", so it may be less that he's a mage and more that he's an ancient elf.
By that I mean that he may have the same sort of magic everyone had in Arlathan without being what we'd consider a mage, just someone who has access to abilities that most people don't with the Veil firmly in place as it is now. I think Arcane Warrior makes perfect sense for him, with more fighting skill (where else did he get those thighs if not lunging with weapons?!) and less spell-casting skill beyond a few defense and offense boosters.

I agree on Arcane Warrior for Abelas. I also think he could be a Spirit Warrior (from Awakening) since it's all about warriors with magical buffs.
NOTHIN BUT LOVE MAN, NOTHIN BUT LOVE
I posted my Abelas-like save file on nexus, if anyone was interested. http://www.nexusmods...sition/mods/226

So maybe he really isn't a mage after all. Maybe he is just an ancient elf who guards the temple of Mythal.
Maybe he has trained his thighs or statis has some special side effects to his thighs ![]()
