Each ending comes with a different associated reward for Solaufein.
I'm personally curious about which route people are taking. What did you find at the end of the romance? Were you role-playing yourself or a particular character?

Sola asked to go out in the woods away from the city. He was visited by his Goddess and received an AWSOME sword... The moonblade. Is that a custome job, by the way? Then he professed his love and loyalty. That was near the end of SoA. Now we beat Iranicus and are in ToB and he hasn't spoke a word to me yet... =(
As for my roleplaying, all my characters have something of me in them. So I'd have to say both roleplaying myself and my char. I played a Kensai/Theif, NG. I think I roleplayed kinda close to that alignment.
So, is this the end or will he talk to me more yet? I liked our little dances... walks in the woods... oh, sorry... ahem.
Great Mod Westley! Thanks for making it! [!-/Text-!] [p]

At least two others have gotten the Moonblade (because they reported a bug in it). So far no one seems to have gotten the Moonray and Memorization reward (perhaps pragmatism always wins in real life).
Anyway, yes it's a custom job. It appears "awesome" so that you will at least consider using it, but careful inspection will reveal that it probably pales in comparison to, e.g., Carsomyr, Foebane +5 or Ravager +6. I had to make it sufficiently powerful that you would still want to use it in ToB and sufficiently weak that it is not the best item in the game. Did it work?
There should be at least one more dialogue with Sola -- it takes place at night and out of doors. He'll offer some nookie :-). If you never ever see this, you may have an old version with the SoA-]ToB "freeze the romance bug", at which point you should upgrade and then talk to solaufein directly by clicking on him. He'll say "I have nothing to say" but he will "unfreeze" and talk to you later.
Is this the end? Well, just today I completed a final Solaufein "challenge" (to take place after the nookie but definitely in ToB). I've also upgraded my dialogue compiler to make banter easier, and I have the Mazzy and Edwin banter completed. The bottleneck now is actually coming up with ideas for things to say, so I'll probably solicit advice on the main board.
Assuming that I release some new banter-ful version before you complete ToB you'll be able to take advantage of all of his banter and this final challenge in your current game. [!-/Text-!] [p]

My char took the more aggressive approach. After being visited by his Goddess he said that she 'healed the weak', but I didn't know exactly what he meant or where to look for a difference. Which one was this?
Actually, that is why I said it was awsome. It is not overly powerful where I'd rush him into a hack/slash combat nor is it wimpy to the point where when I do need him in hand to hand that it is useless. It works fine for me. No probs at all.
Thank you for adding to it!!! =) I'll just keep the game I have on hold until you release it. It wouldn't be any fun going through ToB with Sola being all quiet and all. [!-/Text-!] [p]

First he gains two extra spell slots in each level (making him more like Edwin). Second he can gains an innate Sunray-like ability that he can use thrice a day. It heals the party and smites nearby foes (even non-undead ones).
However, I have no idea if the two options are equivalently powerful (mostly since I haven't heard from anyone who got the moonray one). I may have to run through the game once with it to make a comparison. [!-/Text-!] [p]

I've completed the romance and am just sad that it's over! I've been putting off going to deal with Bodhi until the romance was done. If she doesn't take Solaufein, I will be very disappointed, but aside from that, the romance has been excellent.

I know that you Wes are fond of though fights (I'm starting appreciating them as well...) and that Solaufein's romance is really unique just because it's universal (no gender specific, no exclusive, no SoA/ToB strictly related...) and I DO IMAGINE HOW BUSY YOU ARE.
But.... :-) ...there will ever be any chance to add some romance dialogs in order to continue the romance in ToB?
Just considering that if you're willing to:
- get your fav character as soon as possible,
- play with him in the group part of the underdark/2 chapter quests,
- have him abducted from bodhi and so on...
...the romance will (almost) always finish in SoA?
??
No doubts, no quarrels, no questions, no crisis during all ToB adventures?
I personally gave up my latest game after beating Irenicus for this very reason...

Sure.
It's actually very easy to add romance content (especially the just-talking kind), provided that I have something to say. For example, I was able to whip up the Solaufein-Vampire commentary (which I actually like) in about the time it took to write it down.
The problem is that my muse seems to have deserted me with respect to other things to say. If you (or anyone else) could make some more concrete suggestions about things you think Sola would talk about (e.g., "quarrels" about what?) that might suddenly gift me with the inspiration required to write something up.
Thanks again for your continuing interest in the Sola mod and your stellar translation efforts.[!-/Text-!] [p]

? It could have a philosophical component that would touch on the earlier child rearing conversation, and it could also possibly serve as the basis for a disagreement/quarrel.
Or possibly, make "committment" a bit of a crisis for some reason...maybe Sola still feels remorse about Phaere..or fears once again exposing himself to the raw emotion of being in love, of making himself vulnerable, since due to the perils of the adventuring life...his new love could also be snatched away.
Maybe even a combination of the above would work?
Just thoughts

No. They could pray for divine intervention or research a special spell (c.f. AD&D simulacrum). When you're epic enough to challenge the gods, this sort of thing is not a big deal.
[font SIZE="-2"][font COLOR="0000ff"]There are lots of things that are odd if the PC was male.... [/font][/font]
Not that I've noticed
in the dialogue itself. The Solaufein romance is gender neutral. May I respectfully submit that any oddness you detected was carried along with you?

A child would be a fun thing to pursue as well as formalizing their relationship or discussing it at least. Another thing which might be fun to see would be more surprises. I enjoyed Solaufein's reaction to the group being taken from him at one point. It was great to see his concern for my character. Perhaps there could be other opportunities like this where circumstances might bring them closer together.

Imp. Yaga has a bug/conflict that sometimes causes a crash. Not sure but I think the conflict is with the Imp. Gromnir.

Nowadays, I install Imp. Gromnir before Yaga.
Um... technically, I use the WeiDU patches included in the WeiDU-Ascension, so I'm not sure if there are any problems with it as I've yet to play a game into ToB since the newer WeiDU mods came out.

Hmm. Well, you have to be outdoors (not in a city/dungeon) at night with no non-party members around for him to try to ingratiate himself into your sleeping bag.
I think neither the pocket plane nor Saradush qualifies as "outdoors, not a city, not a dungeon". Keep going.

I read in another thread that you are thinking of writing an epilogue for ToB where Sola falls out of love with the pc.
I think this would be unfair for the ladies. In many aspects you have created an intellectual, noble and much loveable guy -- which led many ladies, Anomen's ex-fans, to admit that, Yes, Sola is my type. I'm wondering, then, why would you want to break their hearts? ;-) Isn't real life cruel enough? Hey, games are for fun and pleasure, not for crying over lost loves!
And that's the reason, I believe, why your idea seems to be so "unpopular". Think it about.
Just my two eurocents.

It would probably be "unfair" for the gents as well, but it might be a tad more realistic. However, I am also of the opinion that we can strive for higher aims in fantasy "literature" (and similar venues). Real life is cruel enough, as you say -- why celebrate that in a game where we're out to have fun?
The thread you are reading is old, and the upshot was that I came to the same conclusion you're advancing here. Solaufein has 5 possible epilogues depending on your choices. None of them feature Solaufien falling out of love with the PC.[!-/Text-!] [p]

That's true, but who wants realism in a game's plot? Not me, that's for sure.:-)
]Real life is cruel enough, as you say -- why celebrate that in a game where we're out to have fun?
Actually, we shouldn't celebrate cruelty --social or sentimental-- in real life either. But this is off topic.
]Solaufein has 5 possible epilogues depending on your choices.
Now, that's what I call "realistic romantism" (I know it's oxymoron). :-)
]None of them feature Solaufien falling out of love with the PC.
Seriously now, should pc's choices have been somehow stupid or silly or whatever, he could. As *I* perceive Solaufein's character, he is far above average Joe. You expect Anomen to stay with you as far as you are sweet, and you hear his constant whinning, and accept to do a little of "baby-sitting". In other words, as long as you are a wife --because that's what Anomen seeks: a wife.
But Solaufein is a completely different story. He's an inquisitive mind, a bit of philoshopher, a bit of poet, a bit of fighter, a bit of everything. He's a cosmos, and this is his beauty. Such a man would stay with a woman (or another man, or whatever), if she was one of his kind: an equal.
Yet, when he says, "Hush now, X, you know I will travel with you to hell and back, if necessary. I would not desert you", you know he tells the truth. Solaufein is an introvert person, he thinks a lot before he speaks. And such a person is trustworthy, because you know that he won't change his mind so easily.
Maybe I'm rambling here, maybe I'm right. Sometimes even writers themselves are not fully aware of their characters' true nature before they finish the book. :-)

You're not the only one to find Solaufein ... "smarter than the average bear", shall we say. Most people are concerned with his sword and sorcery prowess, however.
If your character makes "stupid decisions" in the game (to a degree), Solaufein will "fall out of love with you" in that the romance will end. In that case the epilogue does not talk about Sola falling out of love -- that has already happened. Instead, it talks about what Sola does once the PC is gone.
[font SIZE="-2"][font COLOR="0000ff"]Maybe I'm rambling here, maybe I'm right. [/font][/font]
Well, it's certainly on-topic for this board. You're also right, in my opinion.
[font SIZE="-2"][font COLOR="0000ff"]Sometimes even writers themselves are not fully aware of their characters' true nature before they finish the book. :-) [/font][/font]
A number of literary analysis classes have lead me to that conclusion. :-)
One of the reasons that I have not "fleshed out" the "romance ends badly" actions and dialogue is that most people never see them. It's rare that you download the Solaufein mod, have him as an NPC, string him along and then dump him. I try to put my effort into things that every player will see.
Many people do download and use Solaufein but eschew the romance bit (e.g., "you must have misinterpreted our friendship, Solaufein"). But in such cases it's not really a "the romance ended badly" sort of deal -- it's more of a "it never got started". Some of the epilogues are well-suited to that situation.[!-/Text-!] [p]

I suppose everyone understands that. When I wrote "he could", I was thinking of the dialogues to come, if any, and I rather meant some dialogue options which could make Solaufein to change his mind about the pc, and which would be not quite clear for the player to understand what she/he did wrong. For, when you are romantically involved with a NPC it means you are interested in the romance, you spend a little time to think the dialogues you have with him/her and your decisions are not exactly light-hearted and.
In the next paragraph, however, I rejected my own suggestions. For, by speaking the specific lines, Solaufein seems to have already made a serious decision about his own feelings for the pc and what he wants to do. And those decisions go back at the end of SoA -- at least for my game.
And that's the end of my "analysis" :-)
How long do you think it will take you to finish the rest of the Solaufein project? and taking into consideration the little time you spare? :-)

Is the Romance finished with the talk about childern?
He spoke about children with me, after that we had a romantic night together .... Thats all?
*ÄRGGLLTGTL*
Please .... NO [img SRC="http://manju.cs.berkeley.edu/~weimer/discus/clipart/sad.gif" ALT=":("]
Its really a wonderful Romance.
Even Anomen says a few words at TOB. Couldnt Solafein say some words in TOB, too?
Couldnt you please just write some "short" interactions for TOB? PLEASE ......
I dont want to play TOB (again) without having your really GREAT Sola-Mod implemented in it. [img SRC="http://manju.cs.berkeley.edu/~weimer/discus/clipart/sad.gif" ALT=":("]
There are some posibilitys:
- Having a child (if the players wants, little baby in the inventory [img SRC="http://manju.cs.berkeley.edu/~weimer/discus/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":)"] With a child, they have a lot to speak.
)
- Phaere is coming back
(but she is still evil and wants to trick Solaufein OR she is good and Solaufein have the possibility to choose between Player and Phaere.)
- Just some "Romantic Talk" (like Anomen with the flower in SOA)
- Talking about the future (where to live, what to do)
- Flirt Pack just like in the Kelsey Mod.
I tried the Kelsey MOD .... but .... [img SRC="http://manju.cs.berkeley.edu/~weimer/discus/clipart/sad.gif" ALT=":("] ... After having talked a bit with Solaufein: Kelsey is a bit to "soft" for my personal taste and he talk to much about his family, sorry. Is just my personal taste.
By the way: The Kelsey Mod is of course a GREAT Mod, too.
Westley, its a compliment, that so many people wants to read more "Solaufein Romance":
"A bit personality from the writer is always in his heros."
So, you are a bit Solaufein. So ... a lot of women and men just loves you
... couldnt you write a book (a samll one of course)
