Personality

In basic terms, Sol has the body of an adult, yet the mind and pure heart of a teen. He is super energetic and naïve to the realm of Eorzea that he has not seen before. He can be oblivious and not very bright at time, but when the time calls for it, he can become serious, hyper, and hot-blooded in the blink of an eye, determined to win the fight and protect his comrades against evil.

Combat

General

Solis fights using an unique style of swordsmanship and brawling taught by his father, which he calls his ultimate moves, but really they aren't. With his mother's bare-handed techniques and his father's swordsmanship, all of Solis's attacks can give out the sensation of a burning fire, each slash and strike with enough power that leaves a nasty burn. He fights using his sword, shield, fists and legs.

History/Timeline

Birth and the Amalj'aa Raids

Solis was born in a small village on the 15th Sun of the 1st Astral Moon to Solem and Aurora Claritas, learning swordsmanship from his father, a former Immortal Flame Captain and bare-handed combat from his mother, an expert Pugilist. One day the village was under attack from a devastating force and Solis's mother was killed as a result, and the village ravaged. In the midst, Solem Claritas disappeared, leaving behind his bandana for Solis to wear. As a result of this, he swore vengeance against the Amalj'aa, wore his father's bandana as an important memento, and set off to adventure and get stronger.

A Rising Sun on a Radiant Dawn

Solis arrived at Ul'dah one day to start his adventures throughout the realm. He showed great joy and determination as he entered the city through the Gate of Nald, arriving in front of the Quicksand. One day he ran into Aaron Frostheart at his fallen comrade Niklas Gran's tribute, causing interest in him and annoying him with the nickname Ice-Boy at first, before being attacked by the nearby undead. Kinda impressed with Solis, Aaron forcibly and rather comically dragged Solis to the Ivalice Center, headquarters of the free company Arcadeus. Excited and determined, he joined the free company, having found himself a new home and potential new comrades.

Cherry Blossoms in the Sun

One time there has been reports of mysterious deaths in the Black Shroud, mostly in the central part. The deaths were mostly of bandits and other lowlifes, some of their corpses had strange burn marks and all of them had a cherry blossom petal on top of them. This caught the attention of Solis, who had been in Arcadeus for a while learning all about adventuring with them. He took it upon himself to start investigating these deaths that kept coming, even after Anelia told him not to and to leave it to the Adder. His superior, Nysarias Ylrah herself looked after Solis and accompanied on his investigation, both of them running into a Doman caravan headed by the refugee Takemaru. He said that his travelling companion left him one night and has been causing trouble in the Shroud, and asked Solis and Nysa to look for her. After overcoming many comical ninja traps set by Sakura Mitarashi, the kunoichi that was behind the deaths of the bandits, they caught her and were ambushed by Takemaru, who was revealed to be the master of a group of ninjas that want to kill Sakura for their own vendetta. Solis decided to protect her, and after Nysa getting poisoned by Takemaru and going into a coma for many weeks, Solis brought the two of them back to the Arcadeus estate, where Anelia could have discharged Solis if it weren't for Mizuho Mitarashi, Sakura's distant relative and heir to their clan. She afterwards becomes thankful and devoted to Solis, calling him Solis-san as a nickname and acting as his partner soon after she herself joined Arcadeus.
