## Bio

Silas Nelson was born in Metropolis one year before his sister Rita. He was present when Rita was born, and as their mother died... Silas' abusive father gave him up shortly afterwards... Silas at least got to hold his baby sister one time... After that, Silas moved to a different city to live with his uncle until the age of six, when he inevitably passed away due to a heart attack. In grief and sorrow, Silas emitted a powerful solar burst... It was here that Silas' solar powers emerged for the first time. The young wolf was easy pickings for criminals and villains after that, however there was one lone solace, one saving grace for Silas. The red, orange, and white mutt with black spots called Apollo... God of the Sun.

Apollo took the young Silas in under his wing, and decided to train the young Embodiment. Silas would spend long hours working on balance, fighting against the rushing currents of rivers, cliff-jumping, and enduring intense exposure to the sun to hone his powers. Apollo trained Silas in just eight years what most army soldiers endure in the span of twenty years. After completing his training, Apollo let him go, allowing Silas to freely venture the world and protect the mythological world... Silas quickly made a name for himself, as Solar Flare, a hero who puts an end to the evil that taints society, and heals those who are injured.

It wasn't until the age of 22 that Silas reunites with his sister Rita. He had actually spent years watching over her as she endured her Assassin training. So many times he wanted to approach her, but didn't. He knew she was an Embodiment like him... The Daughter of Artemis... However he was terrified of what she would do or say to him. After Rita and Rian fight off intruders from Rita's apartment, Silas heals Rita of her wounds, and reveals himself as her brother...

The two don't get along well at first, however Rita eventually warms up to Silas and accepts him as her brother.

Shortly after meeting fellow Embodiment, Sonya Fairchild, he falls in love with her, and she identifies it immediately. The two grow closer together, and eventually date each other.

## Personality

A wise-cracking powerhouse, essentially. Silas is an overall comedic individual who enjoys making others smile and laugh, even when the world as they know it is shrouded in darkness. On the job, however, he is determined to see any mission through to the end, and is willing to lay down his life if it means another life will be spared.

On the flip side, he can be a serious individual with a short fuse. While he can be patient, if you insult his ideals or his family even once, he'll fill with rage and you'd best run the other way. In addition, some of his confidence issues from when he was little still linger, and may affect him.

## Attributes

### Powers

Silas, as an Embodiment, wields a particular set of abilities unique to him. He controls a type of fire independent from other types of fire. He has total manipulation of solar fire, flames generated from stars, as he is the Embodiment of the Sun.

- Solar Fire: Silas' particular Element is Solar Fire. It is a versatile type of fire that is resistant, but not completely invulnerable, to water. His fire can burn almost anything and can incinerate objects almost instantaneously. He can bend the solar fire to his will to create weapons, form shields and attacks, and even channel it through weapons.

- Full-Body Materialization: Unique to the Greco-Roman Embodiments, Silas can fully materialize his body into solar fire. In this state, he has complete dominion over his abilities and becomes impervious to anything that dares quench a burning flame, mostly water and metal. In this state, he is also partially less durable, and a bit more vulnerable to direct-contact attacks.

- Solar Healing: Silas can use his solar fire to heal wounds. There are wounds too great for him to heal, but that doesn't stop him from trying.

- Flight: Silas can attain flight from solar fire wings or from propulsion.

- Marksmanship and Swordsmanship: Wielding deadly aim and precision with a sniper rifle, swords, knives, and spears, Silas has his fair share of skill in traditional weaponry.

- Enhanced Durability: Silas can withstand a plethora of attacks before he begins to falter.

- Fire Consumption: Silas, with a power unique to him and Apollo, can consume fire and fire-related afflictions.

- Weakness: Like all heroes, Silas has his weakness. While his attacks are powerful, Silas doesn't do well up close. Don't be fooled, he is still adept in hand-to-hand combat. In addition, his powers are slightly less effective at night when the sun is down.

### Equipment

Despite his powers, Silas has his fair share of equipment that he wears on occasion.

Silas has a pair of elongated dual daggers that he wears, one on each leg. He has a spear with a long-bladed, symmetrical point, a rapier-style long-sword and a modified silver Barrett M82 sniper rifle with a reinforced, thickened barrel with crossbow limbs. The gun can operate as both a sniper rifle and a mechanical crossbow.
