What do u think about that solas quote "They called me the dread wolf, what will they call you once this all over?" It striked me a bit odd but I saw someone say on Twitter that it might suggest he's not the main baddie in da4, that the protag and solas are more alike than we think. It's interesting cause the devs say our protag is someone without power who's trying to make changes that ppl in power aren't addressing. Solas understands that better than most

corseque:

The very first line Solas says to you alone is, “Every great war has its heroes. I’m just curious what kind you’ll be.” It’s key to the thematic material of the series about people making difficult choices for understandable reasons. So now he’s saying it to another hero. Solas himself is like a hero from a previous Dragon Age game walking the earth, and you can’t control what he does or what difficult choices he makes. “Not unlike Inquisitor, I suppose,” as he says in Trespasser.

What I hope this means is that the new hero will have to make AS difficult a choice as Solas had to, and I hope that new hero will be reviled for it as well.

I have actually been preaching this whole time that Solas is… at worst a Thranduil figure in a series where Saurons and Melkors VERY MUCH exist. Like, he’s an antagonist, and so he’s there to portray another facet of the same material as the protagonist, but people misunderstand him and simplify his character’s probable narrative function and complexity because they had an emotional reaction to him. Every single piece of new material makes me double down on this. I think that the concept art of him, plus his appearance in Tevinter Nights, is all very 👀👀
