**Sola** (real name **James** **Henry Flint**) is one of the few protectors of the world. Created by Vortex, James has dedicated his life to being a kind and noble protector. He protects the planet and the universe from powerful threats, all while inspiring hope into others.

## Origin

### Childhood

James’ mum left when he was 7 months old, leaving him with his dad (who was a firefighter) as he grew up he spent a lot of time in the fire station with his dad and the other firefighters, they became his family and taught him selflessness. He went to college and graduated with a masters in nuclear engineering. He went to work at a new solar nuclear plant when he was 20 and took pride in helping his fellow workers.

### Nuclear sola plant

One day when he was 21 his dad came to visit and look around the plant, and as James was showing him around the plant it went into meltdown. He and his dad were in the reactor as it exploded and were unable to escape its solar nuclear energy.

This explosion trapped James and his dad in rubble. James was stuck there for 2 days with his dead father 30 feet away from him, and all the energy he absorbed gave him his powers.

### Vortex

He was saved by the vortex company as they searched the rubble. He was tested on and developed his powers within their facility.

At the age of 24 he was sent on his first test mission where he crashed into the flat of Matt and Tom (they were stoned at the time) they let him stay and he went off of vortexes grid to live a normal life with his new friends.

### Hero

He got a job teaching in adult classes and lived normally for 4 year, until he decided he couldn’t continue to stand by and watch people to get hurt. He created the name ‘Sola’ and was reborn as the hero.

Now at the age of 37 he is a well-known hero. He still lives with Tom and Matt and they now have a German Shepard called Scraps.
