**Enoch Solamen** is a character in Belkinus Necro Hunt played by Arron "Yaroshien" Pleitner. He is an accomplished inventor, including of his own magical metal arm. Enoch wields a pistol named Objection and a rifle named the Gavel, and has a homunculus servant named Kuro.

Enoch can manifest mechanical wings, which appear in a burst of copper-golden light and allow him to fly.

## Personality

Enoch is motivated be a desire to help others, and holds a strong hatred of deception and ruses. Samuel Braxton describes him as being very stubborn when working for the betterment of others. This stubbornness, along with his strict beliefs, often put him at odds with the rest of the party.

Over the course of Belkinus Necro Hunt, his personality softened, though he remained fiercely principled. This change was driven in part by his evolving relationships with Mirth, Serene, and Thyrmelius Cog.

## Religion

Enoch worships Erathis and her domains of innovation, law, and knowledge. He follows the Church founded by Ceatora Solamen, and objects to the monetized approach of the Temple of the Eternals. He initially saw necromancy as an unforgiveable transgression of the law of Erathis, but adjusted his position after meeting Mirth and Serene.

His presentation reflects Erathis' mechanical motifs, including his gear-shaped eyes and mechanical wings.

## Childhood

Ceatora left Enoch at the Church of Erathis in Chester City when he was young, in an effort to keep him safe. He was under the tutelage of Samuel Braxton from then on.

When he was seven, saw a man at the docks with a pistol, which made him immensely curious. He lied to Samuel and said he was running and errand on the church, but instead went back to the docks to learn more about the firearm. The man turned out to be a pirate, who attempted to capture and sell Enoch.

After several hours, Samuel realizing Enoch was missing and came to find him. During the ensuring battle with the pirates, Samuel's eye was cut out and the pirate sliced off one of Enoch's arms. The event left Enoch traumatised and determined to never lie again. Enoch's possession by Alter Enoch fomented an even stricter rule against dishonesty in any form.

Enoch has a history of vigilantism, resulting in run-ins with the authority of Belkinus Proper. These run-ins occurred sometime before being hired by Chandrelle Miharian,

## Possession

For most of his life, Enoch shared his body with another mind he called Alter. He attributed fits of invention to Alter, and had full conversations with him. Enoch told Juliana that this other mind came to the forefront when he relinquished control. He described Alter's presence as more celestial than fiendish, but did not appear to fully understand its relationship to Erathis.

During the party's raid on the abandoned warforged factory, Alter left Enoch's body to possess Magnus, one of the Protectors. After killing Magnus, Alter assumed his own form, revealing himself to be Thyrmelius Cog.

Since Thyrmelius' departure, Enoch's morals absolutism has softened, including his more accommodating stance on necromancy.

## Retirement

As Enoch began to share Ceatora's story more widely, her legacy drew more people to Erathis. Nathaniel's donation to the Church helped it grow, though Enoch eventually paid him back.

Enoch splits his time among Belkinus Proper, Cloveway, and Rugawood, always offering to travel with Mirth if they want to go between cities. He also tried to start up a romantic relationship with Juliana, hoping to start a life together and have children with her.

He retired from adventuring after the Necro Hunt, and gave up making weapons to focus on building prosthetic limbs. He also took the sailing trip he had always dreamed of, inviting Juliana and Mirth. The only time he comes out of retirement is when Renee and the Witchtakers need help.

## Relationships

### Juliana

Juliana was considered to be the first romantic interest that Enoch had, before she banished him from Rugawood for protecting Mirth. The two have since rebuilt a relationship, and both expressed affection in their own way. After Belkinus Necro Hunt, Enoch hoped to start a life and family with Juliana.

### Mirth

Mirth is an aspiring alchemist who was given an apprenticeship offer by Enoch during the party's time in Rugawood. Enoch was even willing to forgive Mirth's experimentation with necromancy and keep them safe in town, before they absconded through a portal with Bloodstride. During an emotional reunion in Verteheim, Enoch proclaimed his full acceptance of Mirth and their necromancy before Mirth decided to leave for Cloveway with Kara Miharian.

### Nathaniel

Nathaniel and Enoch tended to butt heads due to their stances on treating necromancers. However, over the course of Belkinus Necro Hunt, Enoch and Nathaniel have been able to agree that the necromancers can be reformed for the better.

### Kuro

Kuro is Enoch's homunculus servant, who takes the appearance of a small corgi with mechanical wings.
