Solas is a very talked about Dragon Age character and will likely be the main villain of the upcoming fourth game. He is an elf mage who is a companion in Dragon Age: Inquisition. After players beat the game though, they find out he is way more than just an elf mage. He is the Dread Wolf from elf lore.
When a character is widely talked about, the memes come. Solas is great meme material because fans have a lot of information and feelings about his character. So here are ten memes about Solas.
10 Coryheus
A twist at the end of Inquisition is that Solas is at fault for Coryheus. He is the one who gave the ancient orb to the Tevinter Magister because he was too weak to unlock its power. That's when Coryheus got the idea to take the orb for himself.
So Solas knows way more about whats going on than all the other characters, which this meme is showing.
9 Everything Solas Loves
Solas's greatest enemy is himself. He is plagued by guilt but keeps making his situation worse. This is shown in his break up with a Lavellan inquisitor, him leaving the inquisition, and destroying the world.
He doesn't want to, but feels like its his duty since he made the Fade in the first place which ruined the lives of elves.
8 Also Solas
While Solas lies throughout Inquisition, the love he has for a Lavellan inquisitor is real. Despite knowing he shouldn't, he still enters a relationship with her if she flirts with him enough.
This meme is perfect for showing Solas' inner struggle with his love, loneliness,and sense of duty.
7 Dragon Age 4
Nothing is known yet about the Dragon Age 4 protagonist, but many believe they will possibly be put on a quest to stop Solas. It is likely that the inquisitor from Inquisition will also make an appearance since they plan to stop Solas as well.
This meme shows a possible situation where the Inquisitor, the new protagonist, and Solas are together and the new protagonist is just a third wheel because they weren't in Inquisition and don't know Solas like the Inquisitor does.
6 Solas Versus Everyone
Solas gets a lot of hate for his high and mighty attitude. He can be condescending, racist, and stubborn. The fact that he is successfully tricking everyone about his identity does not help.
Those who get Solas to dislike them see way more of this side of him.
5 Falling In Love
If Solas hooks up with Lavellan, it really throws a wrench into his plans. Falling in love with her means that the people of Thedas might all be pretty decent folks but he will have to kill them if he wants to stick to his plan.
This is why Solas ultimately breaks up with Lavellan. He sees her as a threat to his goals and makes the choice to stick to his plan.
4 Wolf Statue
The Dread Wolf have been a part of Dragon Age lore since Origins, and this meme is a comparison of a Dread Wolf statue in Origins versus Inquisition. The difference is hilarious.
One look more like a dog than a wolf, and like you can find it in the yard of a suburban home. The other is epic and truly a piece that looks like it belongs in a fantasy story.
3 Hardening The Heart
After Solas breaks up with Lavellan, the player can still interact with him about the break-up. Solas says this quote to Lavellan, basically explaining that they should take the pain of the break-up and put it to good use in the fight against Coryheus.
Such logic deserves the mocking SpongeBob meme. A lot of fans probably wish mocking what he tells them was possible. Unfortunately, we leave that goofiness to Sera.
2 Everything Wrong
Fans often discuss how Solas has done everything wrong and ends up doing even more wrong by trying to fix what was wrong in the first place. He locked away the elf gods and created the Fade which made the elves have no way to defend themselves against colonization.
Now he plans to destroy everything by bringing the Fade back to fix that mistake, but that is also a bad idea because its evil to just kill everyone. However, many fans still love him. That is what this meme is conveying.
1 "Ur Wrong"
Solas tells a lot of elves that they are wrong but since his identity is a secret, he never really backs up his claims and comes off as a hypocrite.
This art is hilarious because it looks like an elongated wolf talking to some goats, which is a bit symbolically sound for Solas and the Dalish since Solas is the Dread Wolf and the Dalish have a connection to a deer-like creature called halla.
