Description Arrrrrgh, Soren, I hate how every little thing in your outfit is always a different fricking color. It makes it so hard to do.

All right! So it's 2:06 AM Pacific Time, and I had a long day at work, but I figured that I'd worked on this yesterday and this morning, so I'd finish it today. Little did I know that it was going to take so long.

Not to mention my computer was being super slow the whole time, freezing and unfreezing Chrome, Photoshop, and Yahoo Messenger, which really started to bug the crap out of me. But here we are. ^^

I did not do the lineart, nor was the idea to color this mine. XD The idea to color this was *Artxet 's, who suggested to me that I go ahead and ask about it. The artist who drew this (is still don't know how she managed to get every little detail ) is ~lazykyodaija , who was kind enough to allow me to color it after I asked!

Who knew a sage's outfit would be so dang complicated? Wait, don't answer that. OF COURSE a sage's outfit is going to be complicated and weird! Aren't they all? Marich and all of the other sages are great examples. XD Magic users must have a sort of flair when it comes to their clothes, but it begs to question in Soren's case: how does he manage to get dressed every morning during the same time crunch as everyone else, in a rough and tumble mercenary group? Does he have a Wardrobe Tome or something? It just amazes me.

My favorite parts would have to be his sleeve on the left (our left, not his), the sashes, and that book. The sleeve because the shades came out so flowy and nice. The sashes...just because. XD And that book? Well, we've been up and down and all around with that book of his. XD And he can do some pretty nifty things with it.

And that rope/spike/whatever thing he has attached to the back of his robes? What's the purpose of that, other than looking cool? XD I think he could kill someone with that if he turned too fast.

Colors were done by yours truly

Lineart done by (I'm just too tired right now to get the link )

Soren belongs to Nintendo and Intelligent Systems, but us fangirls wish we could own him ourselves. XD

Soren is my favorite mage EVER!!! And i usually like Lightning magic more often but i make an exception for the greatest mage in history. Soren could stand toe to toe with Gandalf, Dumbledore and Merlin and still come out on top. Let's see any of them counter a freaking Rexcallibur right to their FACE!!!

Hmmm, not really...
It's just the way his clothes are. And anyway, it's not his fault he looks slightly feminine!

I know he's like Europeain-Spanish.


Almedha- Looks Spanish [link] ok she looked bright in this pic. Here [link] you can't see most of her face the skin tone looks spanish. Yes I learned she's Soren's true mom. But, the poor lady lost her mind.

Ashnard- [link] here's Soren true dad. He looks europeain. He's crazy when Soren is a baby he's mad at him for not turning into a dragon so he abanded him to die. But, baby Soren didn't die an old woman got him and abused him. Then, sold him to an old sage.


[link] Here read about Soren's story. If you've heard the story already it's ok.

Merinas In reply to writerism [2009-08-02 04:44:25 +0000 UTC]

It's wonderful. ^^ When I first played FE I would protect soren at all costs and wouldn't let him fight much, Because I was afraid of losing him. But now that he's much stronger I let him fight more. XD So that shows how much I like Soren lol.

starlightmeteor [2009-07-07 03:20:13 +0000 UTC]

Magicians are always something in terms of clothes... I remember someone on DA saying that FE people in general need at least an hour to get dressed (^^' so its very plausible Soren would use magic or something.

As for the thingy at the back, it seems to be a combination of a ribbon and a hair ornament used by Japanese noblewomen back in the Heian period (except the ribbon's probably turned into leather X_x)

I kinda doubt the metal ornament attached to the "leather hairband" (I guess I'll call it that) would be heavy enough or sharp enough to kill somebody though (...then again it would sting anyone nearby)
