Overview

Lord Solandrin is the blazing heart of the Summer Blaze Court. A radiant and tempestuous figure, he rules over passion, valor, and conflict. Known for his unbreakable will and dazzling presence, Solandrin inspires admiration and dread in equal measure. His arrival is marked by sudden heat, golden light, and the sound of battle drums.
To mortals, he is the fey lord of war and love—unforgiving in pride but generous in triumph.

Appearance & Depiction

Solandrin is often depicted as a tall, golden-skinned warrior wreathed in a cloak of fire and adorned with a crown of burning laurels. His eyes shimmer like molten gold, and his voice carries like a war song across the battlefield. He wields no blade, for his very presence is a weapon.

Personality & Presence

Dominant, charismatic, and fiercely honorable, Solandrin respects strength in all forms—martial, emotional, or spiritual. However, he despises cowardice and indecision. His court flourishes under his passion but trembles at his fury.
While he embraces duels and contests, Solandrin holds no love for cruelty. He believes power must be earned, never stolen.

Beliefs and Ambitions

Solandrin champions the idea that passion is the truest expression of life. He encourages his followers to pursue their desires boldly and to never let fear douse their inner fire. His ambitions, while grand, center on inspiring greatness, not conquest.
He views mortals as flickering flames—fragile, yet capable of brilliance.
