Standing at the height of 6'2 and weighing 210 pounds, he is technically overweight. But that's only because he is covered in heavy overused muscle developed from all his extra curricular activities. Also, due to the nature of these activities as martial arts, Solomon has managed to find an almost perfect balance between strength and speed. This leaves his appearance, whilst still rather large and imposing, not some musclebound freak. To be perfectly honest, the largest muscles on his body are the ones across his back and his abdomen.
Whilst not a mountain of muscle, Solomon is quite proud of the body he's worked hard on sculpting. This pride influences his preference of clothing quite obviously. Often clad in a simple vest top, black or white generally, he wears clothes slightly too tight simply to better show off the ripped stomach he's worked hard to achieve. Occasionally he wears a casual shirt or some such over the top of said vest, but generally only when the snow is falling. And unless he's forced to by the occasion, he does have formal wear in his closet somewhere believe it or not, it's almost guaranteed you're gonna be seeing his bottom half clad in a pair of loose 3/4 length shorts, white socks and a pair of comfortable skate shoes. It's just how he rolls. Obviously, everything he wears is of a high quality and name make, but when you have the money to spend, why not?
Upon his left arm, and to be honest the majority of his left hand side, he has a tattoo. This one actually - Link. He doesn't have a scooby if it's anything important to anyone anywhere, but he decided he thought it looked awesome and got it the minute he turned 18. If nothing else, it's a talking point.
With a light spattering of brown stubble across his handsome features and the long brown/blonde hair atop his head, he's been able to pass as an eighteen year old for quite some time even before he actually turned the age in question. His eyes are also something of a mystery, perhaps something to do with his abilities but when his power was unleashed within his childlike body, they turned from simple brown to yellow almost gold. Odd.
personality:
Born and raised with a silver spoon in his mouth, and a spare tucked away in his pocket, some may have misconceptions about the way Solomon carries himself around the campus of Harring Gate. Contrary to what alot of people believe, he doesn't think he owns the place simply because his family have alot of money, he thinks he owns the place because he's worked his way up from the bottom and now sits at the top of the food chain both academically and when it comes to ability control. Well. That he knows of at least.
Whilst arrogant in his abilities, he isn't completely without humility. He might not show it straight away, but if someone outdoes him at something, he genuinely feels respect for him as it's not exactly an easy thing to do. Intelligent and proud of it, there's no chance of him attempting to hide what he knows and it's there that he has problems making friends. Whilst most people at the age of eighteen are just getting to grips with the person they are and getting to the whole uncaring of what the world thinks of you attitude, Solomon's already there, and has been for quite some time. This tends to scare off alot of the possible friends that may be out there, but if they can't handle his attitude then it probably wasn't meant to be anyway.
With his natural intelligence bolstered by his abilities, Solomon manages to top most of his classes - even the practical ones, though that's more through natural athleticism and hard work than anything else. This has caused many to be intimidated by him, which has in turn led to the somewhat unpleasant and gruff exterior he puts up, which is pretty far from the real Solomon in truth. If someone were to push past the fake face he wears, they would find someone kind and rather loyal to his friends. If there's one thing he managed to learn from his father, it was that you take care of those around you. You never know when they'll do the same to you.
As far as a sense of humour goes, Solomon likes laughter from almost any source. With the exception of racist jokes or comments, almost anything can get a laugh or at the very least a snigger out of the Harring Gate senior. His own comedy usually comes in the form of a biting wit or sarcastic comment, but he's open to any and all attempts at humour from other people.

powers:
Psychic Aptitude; The first ability to make itself known to Solomon, and his favourite thing ever, is the ability to innately understand what things do. Obviously, when this first appeared, he didn't understand how things did what they did but simply knew their function. It's taken years of practice to work out exactly how things go about functioning, and it's still not perfect, but it's there.
With this ability comes an innate aptitude for certain scholastic pursuits, all of which he excels at. Both motor mechanics and biology are simple for him as whilst vastly different in appearance and function, creations of machine and biological beginnings are simply systems. At this point in time, Solomon is able to understand virtually all non-biological systems by simply looking at them, gaining an even deeper knowledge of them if gaining physical contact with it. When it comes to those of a biological nature, he's still developing, but at the moment he's able to understand how a biological system works after gaining prolonged or repeated contact. Also, as every living thing, whilst perhaps similar, works differently, he must do this for every time he wishes to understand them.
The only exception is himself. He has a complete understanding of how his body works, and if he becomes injured, he knows exactly how and what's wrong the second it happens. After all, he's around his body with his ability alot.
Electrokinesis; The ability to both generate and control electricity is both a vastly powerful and versatile ability. Solomon has been gifted with this secondary power more recently, but this has only led to him focusing more upon it than he ever had with his original ability. Able to create electricity in a variety of forms and discharge it for multiple uses, his personal favourite use of it isn't one that anyone without his combination of powers would be able to achieve. Through his knowledge of his own body and the ability to manipulate the electricity that carry signals along his nervous system, he is able to increase the speed of his synapses which results in him having extremely quick reflexes. Basically, if he can see it, he can react to it. Although a weakness can be drawn from that very statement, he can't react to what he can't see.
At the moment, his discharges of electricity reach a voltage of 600,000 at maximum and can only reach a range of 12feet. Of course, the voltage when releasing this electricity in contact with something increases due to his not having to release it as a standard discharge and can reach up to 1,000,000volts in strength.
power levels:
Psychic Aptitude; 6
Electrokinesis; 6
strengths:
- Above average level of control on both abilities
- Naturally intelligent
- Well trained martial artist
- Has good contacts through his fathers business for pretty much anything.
- Access to large amounts of money
- Talented guitarist.
weaknesses:
- Doesn't trust easily
- Intimidates some people by accident
- Arrogance
- Pride
- Will not work directly with Dahn under any circumstances.
habits:
- When thinking something through, he always places his right index finger against his lips. It's like his thinking position.
- If left alone in a room with nothing to do, he'll begin to shadow box.
- When doing homework, or something else paperwork-esque, he prefers to play his guitar whilst doing so.
goals:
- Take over his fathers company someday.
- Ensure Amagi Miroku doesn't succeed.
- Fall in love.
secret:
- Having heard about the "True Rebellion" movement in school, he wishes to set up his own counter-movement in order to oppose both it and Amagi Miroku but is too afraid that he doesn't have the charisma to lead it.
