Soris

Soris is the cousin of the City Elf Player Character and a temporary companion. He presumably belongs to the warrior class.

Involvement
Like the City Elf PC, Soris is engaged to be married. When the PC's betrothed arrives early it is decided to hold the two weddings together. However, the wedding in interrupted. If the Player Character is male, then after the nobleman Vaughan and his friends haul off the females from the wedding party to their estate, Soris will offer his help in getting the women back. If the player is female, she will be taken along with the other women. As the Player Character is about to be bound by the guards, to be brought to Vaughan, Soris comes in and slides a sword to her. The two slay the guards and make their way to save the women. Soris will help the PC in fighting their way through the estate. After the business is concluded and the City Guard arrive, the Player Character has the option of either taking the responsibility of the whole matter upon him/herself or to blame it all on Soris, in which case Soris will be arrested and executed. If the Player Character takes responsibility Soris decides to settle down with his betrothed, but this happiness is short lived. After the events at Ostragar, the Alienage is shut down from the rest of Denerim. People plagued by the Darkspawn flee to the Alienage. Out of fear of an epidemic, the alienage is put under quarantine. When you return, much later, it seems the arrival of the guards is blamed on Soris. The elves know he helped in breaking into the Arl's home and slaying his guards. You will find him in your home by the fireplace, but his betrothed has been taken to the Hospice.
