Appearance: Sol is a thin young man of median height for his age. He has light brown hair, that could be described as chestnut in color. His hair could also be described as shaggy in quality, but not overly long. It occasionally falls into dark brown eyes and obscures them, thought he is careful to keep it out of his way. He has no noticeable blemishes, at least on the parts of him that are likely to be seen. His skin is a healthy peach color.
Sol prefers to dress simply and without fanfare. This includes, mainly, basic shirts and the like, paired with long pants of either black or gray color. Occasionally he will don a jacket, or even dare to accessorize if he is feeling particularly flamboyant.
Backstory:Sol, like many of his peers, was born in Twilight Town. However, he did not grow up in the standard nuclear family. No, instead, his story begins with a sacrifice, his mother's life for his. There is a reason that the act of childbirth is occasionally referred to as the blood bed, and Sol's birth was a stark reminder of this. Shortly after he was born, his mother succumbed to the harshness of it all. And this initially left Sol alone with his elder sister, Stella. His father was not in the picture, having left for reasons unknown to Sol shortly before his birth. Luckily for the two children, their mother happened to have a brother in Twilight Town, their Uncle Mercurio. Mercurio quickly took the two children in and raised them as his own. As such, Sol has never known a parental figure other than Mercurio.
Life under Mercurio was good enough. The man, and by extension the children, lived comfortably, as Mercurio kept a small shop that dealt in various baubles that did well enough. For a time, his life was simple enough. Of course, it was not perfect. Stella, as she got older, began to argue with Mercurio about any number of things. What she wanted, what her parents would have wanted, that Mercurio wasn't their parent... Trying times, indeed. Eventually, Stella took to spending most of her time away from the home, leaving Sol to his own devices for a great deal of time.
As such, Sol began to read. Mercurio kept a great deal of books, and as a child, Sol had little else to do, so he began to read. And, as it turned out, he quite enjoyed it. He fell in love with the knowledge, in love with the other worlds that books spun, of the stories they created and told. He was content to spend all his time reading back at home. But Stella was not.
In her time outside the home, Stella had taken up fighting, as many people do. But as it turned out, Stella was taking it up for her own reasons: to gain the strength to leave home. And, in time she did. Before long, she announced her intentions to both Sol and Mercurio. Mercurio, in his concern, argued with her, attempting to convince her to stay. Safe to say, he was unsuccessful. Sol, however, was actually a little jealous. Having immersed himself in books, Sol wanted his own adventures. He begged her to take him with her. She refused. He begged again. And once again, she refused. But eventually, he must have worn her down some, as she eventually agreed to teach him to fight, so that he might leave on his own someday. The two trained for some weeks, until Sol had grasped the basics of both magic and swordplay.
Satisfied, Stella took her leave, making Sol promise to keep practicing and to find her again one day. Sol eagerly agreed, but before she departed, he finally asked why she wanted to leave. And her answer was simple: 'To find him.' Their father, she meant, the one who had run away before Sol was born. The two had shared a silent moment of resolve, each knowing that he was out there somewhere. Sol had never met the man, but some small part of him still desired to. Blood and blood, he thought. Before long, Stella finally left them, leaving young Sol with only his rapier and books, and a few years worth of waiting.
Finally, that brings Sol to today. On the precipice of his own journey, Sol has strapped his rapier to his belt and has finally left the safety of Mercurio's home and struck out on his own. It has not been long, and he has not gotten far, but his resolve is true. He wishes to find both Stella and his father. And, maybe, write his own story. Now, if only he could make it outside of Twilight Town. But even the greatest journey starts with small steps...
