Modified (Van Kleiss)
What Makes You Who You Are
Personality:
Solomon is missing a few pieces to his jigsaw puzzle. Solomon is very absent-minded and carefree. At times, he even forgets his own name, what he's doing, or anything else important. Other than his half-brainedness, he's friendly and gentle enough at face value. He smiles often, making him seem nice and friendly, but on the inside, Solomon is driven by instinct, just like Mortar. However, unlike Mortar, Solomon has some control over himself. He can function like a human being, but has an insatiable apetite for blood. Also, he appears to have no conscience, being absolutely innocent as the child he appears to be, but killing with no remorse. This causes him to be very... creepy. Solomon has the ability to resist Van Kleiss's influence as his master, following Van Kleiss by free-will, knowing it will get him more blood. However, there are also times when Solomon will ignore Van Kleiss's orders and act on his own.
Appearance
Solomon appears as average height and weight for a healthy 13 year old. However, Solomon looks nothing like a healthy 13 year old. Solomon's skin is grey, just like Mortar's. His hair is shaggy and pale green, being somehow dead, but still attached to his scalp. Solomon's eyes are yellow. He is clad in nothing but shorts and a hospital gown. But most disturbingly, Solomon is coated in stitches on most of his body. Limbs have obviously been reattached, organs have obviously been moved or removed. And, there is a large stitch scar on his forehead, above his left eye. His brain has been tampered with by Van Kleiss in a (failed) attempt to recreate a perfect servant like Mortar. Because of this tampering, unfortunately, is why Solomon can be so innocent, yet cold-blooded. Everything is one big cartoon to him.
Likes:
Dislikes:
Goal(s):
Solomon just wants to have fun. He's only a kid at heart.
Fears:
Solomon just fears dying. However, thanks to Van Kleiss, that is unlikely.
Alignment:
Darkness
Life As You Know It
Family: Living or Deceased
None. The closest thing Solomon has to a family is Van Kleiss and his Death Brigade, consisting of himself, Mortar, and a mysterious third member.
History:
Solomon couldn't tell you what his childhood was like, because he's still a child on the inside. To him, he hasn't aged a day. He can comprehend time and aging just fine, but not to himself. In actuality, Solomon was abandoned by his parents and left on his own at a young age. He was taken in by family after family, finding him themselves one at a time and all abandoning him later. Solomon never understood teh concept of a family due to this. Eventually, Solomon stopped aging, and his family hopping continued. The reason for which he was always abandoned was his facination in blood and consuming it. It was his vampirism, although not awakened, but still prominent over his humanity. After some time, Solomon was given to the owner of an underground organization. It was like a fight club for vampires. Solomon dominated. He was the best. This eventually drew attention from Van Kleiss, who seeked to adopt him as his servant. Van Kleiss found the boy to be completely immune to his powers of control. Van Kleiss was intrigued. He immediately ran experiments. One test led to another and eventually, Van Kleiss was taking the boy apart in search of how he could still resist. Van Kleiss soon realized the answer, or rather, a plausible solution. Van Kleiss was already in possession of one perfect servant, why not recreate him? Inspired by Mortar, Van Kleiss re-assembled the boy in Mortar's likeness, even going so far as to tamper with his brain. He removed the boy's limiter and several other sctions of brain in order to ensure the highest possible level of control. However, minor alteration was inevitable. After tampering and tinkering for nearly a century, Van Kleiss is pleased. Solomon appears to be as functional as a vampire can by while remaining a mindless puppet. However, what Van Kleiss doesn't realize is that Solomon is still immune to Van Kleiss, he's just much more simple.
That thing you do
Strength:
Solomon appears invincible. He is quick, relentless, strong, skilled, ruthless. He also feels no pain. Solomon is unable to die, unless by having his head cut off, or killed with holy weapons.
Weakness:
Solomon is still very brittle from his physical tampering. If he over-exerts himself, he falls apart. He also requires blood to use his power. If he uses too much, he suffers from anemia (too much blood loss).
Special Ability:
Solomon can control his blood. He uses it to create weapons, fire projectiles, create a trap or environment, or just about anything that doesn't cause massive blood loss.
How do you control your blood lust:
He doesn't.
