Ok, the OP has been updated with some fan stuff. I will head to bed as it's 3:30am here, but please keep this going! 

 

Other topics to muse upon-

• what exactly is his class (mage, warrior, etc)? I never got to fight him so I'm unsure. This could probably be remedied by google, but I'm sleepy. 
• Myers-Briggs personality?
• How could you see BW incorporating Abelas into future DLC or DA4?

Additionally, any good quality videos you could contribute would be great! That way we could see all the possible conversations one can have.

 

Perhaps him getting a new name?  If there is indeed a story that deals heavily with the ancient elven gods coming up, it wouldn't be far-fetched for him to be involved in some capacity.  Whether it be as a companion (please Bioware  ) or in some other way.

It would be such a nice story. I know that in some people's games they did not side with the sentinels, thus Abelas did not survive...but Leliana, Anders...sometimes people die and they come back to life to play important roles.

Even if not Abelas, it could be some other survivor of the Sentinel Elves.

 

Honestly, though, the Sentinel Elves made me think there are probably other ancient elves out there, hidden away.  Remember Felassan from Masked Empire?  ... Yeah, I am pretty sure he was ancient, and I'm also thinking he was no servant of Mythal.  Who precisely were HIS clan?  Or am I wrong, and he was, in fact, from there, too?

I didn't know he could die in other scenarios, though I'm not surprised.  He's such an interesting character.  I'd hate for him to not make a comeback.  Since he's one of the ancient elves, perhaps they could come up with a way for him to survive?  I don't know.  If he proves to be popular enough, they might go the way of Leliana and bring him back into the story regardless of whether or not he died in someone's playthrough.  (Then again, that might just p*ss some people off as it already happened two or three times before in the series.)

Solas did say that Abelas's people yet live.

 

"Elvhen such as you?"

 

"Yes, such as I."

 

I think that's how it went. And Abelas got a cryptic look on his face.

Uggghhh this is probably going to be my second favorite thread on here! I just can't resist elves and why oh why am I out of likes now!? I'll come back later and like a whole bunch of posts, promise; also thank you for this OP.

Although I haven't seen a play through where Abelas dies it doesn't really mean anything to me, because they can pull up any reason for him surviving and still have him be a companion. Also I would actually prefer it if they made a game where you do actually get a companion based on whether or not you decided to kill or not kill them on a previous play through. I love when those kinds of decisions really effect the outcome of a game. I know that can take up a lot of resources for a companion that you might not have but isn't that what they essentially did with Mass effect 3? I mean Garrus or Tali can be dead in that game right?

I just want to find out more about ancient elves and see if the Dalish and city elves can gain their immortality back.

You know I never really gave Abelas a second thought after leaving the temple but after coming in here...

Damnit, OP, you've put many thoughts (non-pg thoughts) in my head and now I have to wait 4-5 years to see if maybe I can jump his sexy, Elven bones. Sigh, off to fanfiction.net I suppose.

I am now writing fanfiction with Abelas in it thanks to this thread.  While I have a bunch of Solas plot bunnies running around.

 

This game.  It's destroying me and it's so gooooood.

[LightningPoodle]

I want him as a companion.

[Cosmia]

I'm back! Thank you to everyone who commented for preventing this thread from dying

Do it!! I loved that one Solas fanfic you did... it's my favorite so far. Make sure to post it so I can link to it in the OP

Teeheee Feel free to link any decent fic you find! The more the merrier.

Aside from the fact that he totally looks like a sith lord to me, Abelas has such an intriguing and attractive design.   I wish I could have been able to make an elf that looked even remotely like him, aka, the tarot cards.

I really hope we get to see him again. Or even get him as a companion in a dlc or future game. A girl can dream.

I think it would definitely be fascinating to have him come back as a possible companion, though I wonder if DLC or DA4 would be better? I feel like if he came back from DA4 it would give them an opportunity to expand on him more, but I suppose that depends a lot on where they're going with DAI DLC. Time will tell, and we will wait and see.

I wonder if Abelas is the reason male elves in chargen get an extra skin tone option at the end of their slider that female elves don't get.

Oh, that's a good question! I haven't played around with the character creator, is the extra skin tone similar to Abelas'?

[nightscrawl]

I fully support this thread .

Looks the same. There's even a male preset with that tone. The sad-looking face.

I was thinking actually,considering the next game might take place in Tevinter,didn't he tell Dorian "will the elves of your lands listen?" or something along these lines?What if decides to try and this is how we see him in the next game.That would be an interesting scenario and he would certainly make an interesting companion.Plus his connection to Fen'harel who now appears to have absorbed Mythal's essence.

Ohh, where did you read the next game could take place in Tevinter? That would be amazing!

I've heard speculation,that the next installment will take place in the north of Thedas.I believe one of the devs said so as well,although I'm not 100% this will be the case it will be highly possible.Maybe Tevinter will be one of the locations we get to visit.

Someone needs to make an Abelas character and get the Arcane Warrior armor and record everything :|

[Jaron Oberyn]

He reminded me a bit of Haldir from LoTR. It'll be cool if we see him again in the future, given he survives. 

[nightwolf667]

Abelas is so great, he's like a cross between Fenris and Javik with that awesome vaccum-sealed armor. First NPC in game to steal my heart. I would love to see more from him. A non evasive ancient character would be a first in this game. Looking at you Solas/Flemythal.

And it could be done without breaking the lore.  How much could a slave know of what the gods really plan(ned)?  If he really wants to integrate into modern society, he's going to have a lot to learn, and I can totally see him stepping out on his own only to come to the realization that the Inquisition is a better ally than the scattered elves.

[Atmostis]

I am here and ready to appreciate! Also this thread has been active for less than an hour and already on page three I love you guys. And...I really like Abelas' fashion sense and I WANT THAT BOLERO IT IS A BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF CLOTHING ^{I am too excited about it but it is the best}.

 

 

 

 

Do they deteriorate? I've never understood the whole uthenara thing tbh.

 

Here are some close ups!
