"No matter how you drop me, I'll always land on my feet."
-Solomon's catchphrase
Appearance
Solomon's fur is a brick red with a black streak of hair going from between his eyes to the back of his head. His hair goes off to the side of his head, like most other bobcats. He has a skinny build and is a bit tall for his species. He wears a brown fleece polo and a pair of black cargos. Solomon's shoes are a pair of simple white sneakers. His tail and ears are constantly in motion, instinctively scanning the area. His eyes have been known to be a blue/grey/green, a rare shade. Unlike other Mobians, he wears no gloves
Personality
He is dedicated to the defense of his homeland, even if most of the populace hates his kind. His main goal in life is to see that his home is free of any hatred towards his people by unconditionally coming to the aid of the inhabitants. His calmness and restrain make him the polar opposite of his best friend, Jason, who wants the humans to pay for making him a pariah. Some say his silence is with reason, as it seems Solomon holds a great weight upon his shoulders.
History
Solomon was born on an island far away from the rest of Mobius, where humans treat the intelligent animals of Mobius like trash. He lived in a secluded village far away from the main city and was raised by a loving mother and an overbearing father, who wanted to train Solomon to become the greatest killing machine of his kind. When Solomon failed to deliver, his father cast him out to die in the slums of the city. When he went back to confront his father, the village was being burned to the ground by his own father, who went on a rampage after he exiled his son. This fired claimed Solomon's mother and the rest of the village. Solomon, fuelled by anger and his father's aggressive teachings, he beat his father within an inch of his life and left him to burn.
He was lost. Solomon felt that he had no where else to go except the military life. At the young age of 14, he faked his age (he was tall enough already to pass as an adult) and joined a group of Mobians dedicated to bringing down human rule. Solomon kept quiet about it, but he saw no difference in this faction and the humans. Two years later, in his first and last battle, he found a wounded human, who did not show any hatred for Solomon or the Mobians. He and the human hid in a cave for days, telling each other stories about how they got into the military life. Solomon related to the human. He also had an overbearing father who forced him into the military. When they were found, it was by a human scouting party. Solomon knew then that the rest of the Mobian army was gone, either dead or captured. He surrendered, only to find out that the soldier he hid with was a high ranking officer. The officer pardoned Solomon and offered him a home in the city, an apartment where other Mobians lived. Solomon agreed and adapted to the city life. The apartments is where he met his best friend, Jason The Echidna. They immediately became good friends, mainly due to the fact they shared a room. Solomon did odd jobs while Jason worked taking out garbage and doing other shady business. That was when Solomon encountered Doctor Tangent. Tangent waged a personal war on the city with an army of robots, but the attacks were small and not commonplace enough for military action. The mayor of the city, the very same officer Solomon rescued, gave Solomon the job of dealing with the Doctor's scattered factories. Solomon accepted the job without question.
Other than protecting the city, Solomon got another reason to continue his "work" when Jason was arrested for assaulting a human after being the recipient of a racial slur. When Jason was put under house arrest, the mayor promised to release him after Solomon has dealt with Doctor Tangent. Solomon still fights Tangent, and Tangent recognizes Solomon as his nemesis. They stop at nothing to find who is the other's better. Around this time, Solomon decided to tinker with some of the garbage Jason brought home, even making twin grapple hook that can be shot out of his sleeves, amplifying his agility.
