Some other fun facts:

  • Solace has The Echo, which — beyond its normal boons of tempering resistance and understanding different languages — allows him to briefly glimpse the future by a few seconds, at most. While he is unable to control this aspect of The Echo, it manifests in life-or-death situations, leaving him with a story behind a new scar instead of being a cold, lifeless body.

  • Solace's 'gunclub', Kaminari, has a unique barrel that alternates between Astral and Umbral cartridges. Whichever one he uses dictates whether Solace adopts an offensive (Umbral) or defensive (Astral) fighting style.

  • Solace is best associated with the element of Wind, from his cheerful, free personality to his fighting style. In the rare moments he becomes serious, he acts swiftly and decsively, adopting more of an association to the element of Lightning.

Hooks:

Cooking & Tea:

One of Solace's slightly odder quirks is taking an interest in what resources a defeated monster can provide and finding some way to prepare a meal or dish from the monstrocities he defeats. On top of this, he enjoys making radical tea blends with a variety of herbs, spices, fruits, and even sometimes the aforementioned monster resources compliment a good blend!
Solace will always find common ground with those who are open to making, eating, or simply enjoy exotic dishes. While he is often seen with his own personal spiced berry tea blend, Solace also makes for a good drinking buddy, so long as the drinks "taste good and get ya drunk, when you need them to"...

Adventuring Reputation:

Despite being a jovial and charasmatic soul, Solace is no stranger to combat and conflict. Some may know him from having been on both the Ala Mhigan and Bozjan warfronts, or his heroic acts defending smaller settlements outside of Thavnair with his wife, Ariale, during The Final Days. Others may know him from his personal endeavors of relic hunting or escorting vital supplies to places in need. Solace's reputation as a steadfast adventurer and defender of the realm has grown in recent years, earning him titles like 'The Cobalt Serpent'. If you are a fellow adventurer or participated in any of the above world conflicts, you may know him or have heard of him...

Oschon's Compass:

As one of the founders and leaders of Oschon's Compass, a freelance company and network of close friends and allies, Solace is constantly looking to meet new people, find exciting jobs, and help those seeking their company's aid. If you have some work that piques his interest or are looking to make connections with powerful and varied individuals, Oschon's Compass might be available for recruitment or hire...

If you wish to know Solace better, the best thing to do is ask! He's usually an open individual and will quickly warm up to people, especially if you find or share some common interests with him! Get to know him well enough and you may even find out a secret or two about him...
((After all, that's what RP is all about!))

Bonds:

Ariale Albilon:

Solace's wife of two years was a known contributor to the Ala Mhigan Resistance, as well as one of the co-founders of the Oschon's Compass freelance company. While current public knowledge of her is limited, it is known that after the Ala Mhigan Resistance, the two were seen defending Thavnair's smaller settlements during The Final Days...

Rivian Dragonclaw:

As the youngest of the five Dragonclaw siblings and a fellow member of Oschon's Compass, Rivian has a very strong bond with Solace, affectionately for her older brother and both cooperative and competitively as a fellow adventurer.
As both grew up from a young age in Ishgard and went through knights training together, Rivian and Solace have been the closest of their siblings, even more so than their older twin siblings. While the two still act like they are children in their unending sibling rivalry or have a child-like wonder about the incredible things they see on adventures, they truly want what is best for the other and will go through hell to make sure the other is safe and happy.

Rayven Dragonclaw & Oda Tenshiro:

As the only son and third child of Rayven Dragonclaw and Oda Tenshiro's six children — two renowned adventurers and "retired" explorers — Solace tries to shy away from his family name so his accomplishments aren't simply attributed with their reputation or legacy.
With Rayven being a high ranking knight in Ishgard's military forces and Oda being a master swordsman, Solace always rides the line between being inspired by them and worried he won't make something of himself like they did.
If you know one of his family members though or their exploits, it's likely you've heard of him...
