HEADCANON 001 - SOLAS’ PAST   /   RANK   /   INVOLVEMENT WITH THE EVANURIS.

in my personal opinion, after talking it out with sam, is that solas was a general in the great war he speaks of during trespasser. he joined the future-evanuris in battle because he believed they had noble intentions. he truly believed in their cause and their purpose. due to this strong faith, solas name himself fen’harel referring to ‘’ noble wolf ‘’ rather than the popular future idea of ‘’ dread wolf. ‘’ solas comments on the title when in the dlc, saying it was ‘’ an insult i took as a badge of pride. ‘’ I SEE THIS AS SOLAS ADMITTING THE NAME IS NOW AN INSULT, whereas at the time it was something to be prideful about. he believed to help the people. he believed arlathan was the end all beauty   ;   the dream come to life due to the efforts within the war. the godhood and worship that came after? merely a side - effect. however … in time, the others, the evanuris, began to change. their intentions shifted, their attitudes no longer their own. it was as if they were being corrupted from the inside out, the newfound slavery, the demands. solas looked down upon it. he said no, this isn’t right. this wasn’t why we fought. he began to rebel. he began to tell the evanuris that they can’t do this to their people. he ended up growing closer to mythal as, once again explained in trespasser, due to her kindness   /   respect towards her followers. he felt connected in that regard. in the end, he ended up going against the evanuris ( minus mythal ) in the regard of starting to free their slaves, acting on little acts of rebellion, etc, etc. he wanted them to stop, but knew he could only sabotage so much. he began to be looked down upon the others, began to be shoved out of their pantheon. HE WAS STILL A GOD TO THE PEOPLE. he was a god of freedom to the liberated, a god of betrayal   /   deceit to the evanuris. when mythal was killed BRUTALLY, he has enough. we know solas is an angry man, though i’d say he’s simply very emotional over all. anger fuels his actions on more than one occasion within the inquisition. my best example of this is with the quest all new, faded for her, when he begins to deal with the mages, slaughtering them with the inquisitor’s approval. HIS NATURE IS TO BE EXPRESSIVE. he’s wild   ;   truly a wolf in sheep’s clothing. her death causes his anger and sorrow to drive him forward, to become drastic. he seals them away because his emotions told him it was only fair. he didn’t kill them based on his principles. mainly those of ‘’ i won’t stoop to your level of deceit ‘’ and ‘’ now you will have to live with your punishment. ‘’ this last straw was what truly showed him the corruption. he saw how the evanuris truly thought, truly felt. it was time for change. the evanuris weren’t good for the people. they never were. he regrets not seeing that sooner.

hey y’all! it’s me again zam! though others know me by kylo. since these things get around quicker than promos, and im in need of a new one, would you mind spreading this around if you’d like to interact with solas from bioware’s dragon age: inquisition? i haven’t been here in over a month since i’ve rebooted, adding another year to my absence from my original blog that is now archived also doesn’t help matters. kiss kiss! thank you.

█ ▌◆ —— the civil wars lyrics sentence starters

that’s the least of all my fears.

please forgive me.

devil’s gonna follow me wherever i go.

i’m a dead man walking.

you only know what i want you to.

i know everything you don’t want me to.

you think your dreams are the same as mine.

i wish you’d hold me.

i don’t have a choice but i’d still choose you.

you’ve been lonely too long.

let me in the wall you’ve built around.

let me hold your hand.

you’re like a mirror, reflecting me.

i never meant to get us in this deep.

i wish you were the one that got away.

oh, if i could go back in time. 

i wish i’d never seen your face.

he’s hidden his heart away.

all he really wants is for someone to want him back.

what i choose is my choice.

the killer in me is the killer in you.

you’re sunlight.

you’re my favorite song, always on the tip of my tongue.

look what you’ve done.

you own me with whispers like poetry.

your mouth is a melody i memorize. 

oh lord, what have i done?

i’ve fallen in love with a man on the run.

don’t take that sinner from me.

i’ve fallen for someone who’s nothing like you.

i just want to take him home.

he did what he had to do.

give me the burden, give me the blame. i’ll shoulder the loud and  i’ll swallow the shame.

don’t care if he’s guilty. don’t care if he’s not.

he’s good and he’s bad and he’s all that i’ve got.

i saw heaven every day.

don’t you fret my dear, it’ll all be over soon.

i’ll be waiting here for you.

i don’t want to talk right now.

for all that we’ve got, don’t let go.

i can’t pull you closer than this.

it’s just you and the moon on my skin.

just hold me.

she’s in love and she won’t be again.

i’m going to go home.

why are you so far from me?

in my arms is where you are to be.

how long will you make me wait?

i don’t know how much more i can take.

i’m still waiting patiently.

i wanna leave you.

i wanna give up.

i’m gonna say it if you won’t.

stop saying those sweet things you know i like to hear.

you’re right here with me.

you can’t blame me.

haven’t you noticed me drifting?

i’ve got to let you go.

i just keep losing myself.

one glance was all it took.

give me one more chance.

won’t you please let me into your heart?

i was blind to let you go.

i want you back.

trying to live without your love is like one long sleepless night.

i’m coming home real soon.

i love the best i can.

whatever you do, keep it with you.

sometimes i can’t tell where i am.

through it all we still remain.

all the king’s horses and all of his men couldn’t tear us apart.

i gave you all the love i’ve got.

this is no ordinary love.

i gave you more than i could give.

you’ll always be the only one.

i could get over you but please don’t ask me to.

you always said you want me to be happy but happiness was having you here with me.

you’ll always be the one that’s standing in my way.

To what extent did he directly organize the agents of fen'harel ? Does he rely in part on reputation and allow some autonomy and personal discretion, or does he organize their movements more like a general?

HEADCANON 002 - THE AGENTS OF FEN’HAREL.

we’ve talked about this slightly, as i was getting my thoughts down. his agents, as he calls them ( rather than followers, as that refers to the idea of his worship which he despises. ) have always been there, even while he slept and then came back, i’m sure of it. back in the time of arlathan, when he was rebelling against the evanuris, his agents were those who chose to go against what society demanded of them, deciding to stand up and be their own person. they aligned themselves with fen’harel and began to insight rebellion of their own. small acts, though they added up as time went on and his so-called following grew. however, solas directly organising his agents? i think at first, he was very ... agonised, if you will, over the idea of people serving him. perhaps he never really did organise them, never really commanding them. we can attribute this to the facts that solas did what he did to help, rather to expand his power   /   following as a god as well as the idea that solas was more than likely tired of commanding their people. war can do that to someone. either way, both play into my idea of solas more or less ignoring the agents at first until, when some time has passed, he began to utilise them more and more   ;   he truly does have a commander’s mind, a general’s strategy.that shift was perhaps when it became obvious the evanuris were not going to change with his small attempts at rebellion, though it did result in himself being ostracized. that was when he took over. he isn’t a man who forces anyone for anything. his agents do what they do on their own free will and choice   ;   to do otherwise would be exactly what the evanuris do. HE IS ABOVE THEM. he is better them. so while he may gain more control of his agents rather than harboruing an ignorance towards them, he still lets them decide what to do, when to do it, and how. he will simply suggest means of accomplishing them and tasks that may very well be the best option.he does not organise their movements in the traditional sense. like mentioned previously, he suggests tactics. he says ‘’ this route would be safer ‘’ or ‘’ the body can be placed here by so - and - so. ‘’ his agents simply take it upon themselves to do so. this can be blamed on their pride in fen’harel or their commitment to such a cause. it eases solas’ conscious to not command them or order them, yet still play a vital role in their actions as he is the supposed ‘’ battlemaster ‘’ of it all. his agents within the inquisition who report back to him? they do so on their own free will and choice. they hear something he may think prudent and speak it back. THIS IS WHY HE IS VERY CLOSE TO MOST OF THEM. he harbours a deep love and respect for every agent under his guidance. they risk everything for him. he has to make their sacrifice worth it.
