Archived:Solomon Solitaire

Solomon Solitaire is the child of Indian-Born, Victoria Solitaire, and Apollo, the god of the sun. Solomon's neighbor, Mr. Greene, is a satyr and introduces him to Camp Half-Blood.

Personality
Sol is usually playful and happy but when provoked, can be a fierce warrior. After he is claimed, his personality is changed drastically; he is more serious and is easily angered. When he went to school, he would be made fun of because of his race and he solved this problem by not getting angry and "jokingly" makes fun of other races when they make fun of him. But, unfortunately, this has gotten him in many fights.

Fatal Flaw
Solomon's fatal flaw is curiosity. He always wants to see what is over there what that is, and what happens if he does that,etc. This gets him into trouble a lot.

History
Solomon was born on August 7, 1996 to Victoria Solitaire and Apollo. When he was first born, he started to glow radiate like light. Also, his father Apollo received unsettling visions about his child. According to his prophecies, Solomon was supposed to live a regular life, happy and care-free, until the age of 14, when he's supposed to go to Camp Half-Blood and be claimed by his father. Unfortunately, after his claim, a great, dark, evil event was supposed to take place that would affect Solomon, his mother, the world, and Apollo himself. This is why Apollo left. Not just because of this but also because he couldn't interfere too much with the lives of mortals. He explained his reasons to Victoria and she understood. Victoria was left to raise up Solomon by herself. Solomon is intelligent and gets pretty good grades. He is diagnosed with ADHD and can barely sit for a minute. He does not have dyslexia and excels in writing essays and stories.

Demigod Discovery
Mysteries Revealed

Mr. Greene is Solomon's neighbor and he (Solomon) sometimes goes over his house to help him with his "garden" under persuasion of his mother. One day when he goes to help, Mr. Greene asks Sol to help walk his dog, Laelaps, and Solomon reluctantly agrees. At the local park, nobody is there except for Sol and Mr. Greene..

Mr. Greene suggests they go back but as they are about to, a monster-a very big snake-attacks. During the fight,

Mr. Greene defends Sol and gets hurt. Later, somehow, the monster is defeated and slithers away. Mr. Greene reveals that he is a satyr and tells Solomon about Camp Half-Blood and that he needs to get there ASAPand contact his mom. He gives Sol a watch and tells him to use it only at times of great need. After that Mr. Greene passes away from the Python wound and leaves his dog, Laelaps, into Solomon's care.

Battle of the Manticore/ The Watch's Secret
On the way to Camp Half-Blood, Solomon, his mom, and Laelaps are attacked by a manticore. Solomon uses his watch for the first time. He presses a button at random and it transforms into a discus. He throws it at the Manticore and the monster disintegrates. The discus returns to Solomon's hand and transforms back into a watch. Finally Laelaps leads Solomon to Camp Half-Blood. His mom goes back home, safe and sound, while Solomon is introduced to the demigod world.

Abilities
As a son of Apollo he:


 * Can Heal himself and others.
 * Can curse others to only speak in rhyming couplets that can take days or even weeks to wear off (depending on strength and number of people in the spell).
 * Is an expert in archery and other missile items
 * Might have photokinesis, the ability to control light since there father is the god of the sun, and may also possess vitakinesis, the ability to heal or harm the human body, since their father is the god of medicine and diseases.

Weapons
Solomon's main weapon is a discus. It can be transformed into a watch and back. He also uses a bow and arrows. He keeps the quiver of arrows on his back and to mortal eyes look likes a backpack. He straps his bow to his thigh like a sword, which can be transformed into a sword. It is one of the gifts he recieves after being claimed by his Father.

Gifts
After he is claimed, Solomon inherits some gifts from Apollo. He recieves a bow that can transform into a sword, a laurel wreath, and a sun dragon which he eventually successfully tames and names as Orion. Just like Blackjack is to Percy Jackson, Orion is to Solomon.
