Alon (a.k.a. The Silver Ghost)
He’s fabulous. He’s amazing. He’s The Silver Ghost
Physical Description
His caramel blonde hair and his violin case which he carries around. He sometimes wears a cowboy hat.
Mental characteristics
He was born in the country known as Slaria. His family was working class. He had a younger sister called Aqua who he valued. When he was six, he heard music for the first time and it inspired him. Two years later he picked up piano lessons. His mentor was Hakeema Chen and had taught many fabulous students. They taught for thirty years. Alon played for seven years before his mentor encouraged him to play violin. His family couldn’t afford it and talked to his mentor about it. He said that he knew a great friend who would help.
He and his mom went to the location given to them. They introduced themselves and managed to get a violin for a cheaper price. Alon practiced everyday and got into a music class in school. He was the best in the class. His teacher and his family were impressed. When his first concert rolled around he was nervous about playing in front of people. He managed to get over it and discovered that he liked having an audience. All throughout his elementary and high school years he increased his skills and his family was right along with him.
When he was in college he studied music at Providence Institute and got his degree. He started playing in his hometown and he expanded into random towns and cities and just played. There was no announcement and his music always had a light, eerie tone to it so people started associating him with spirits. Whenever they talked about him they would mention him as “The Silver Ghost” and this became his nickname after a few months and he gladly embraced it. Once he saved enough money he got a new instrument called the
Stroh Violin. Alon fell in love with it within a year. The sound was amplified and it made for a greater experience. He made up songs on the fly which were calm and relaxing.
He played for a few decades before his fans started to disappear. He wasn’t expecting the sudden drop off in fans but he had his family help him through it. The genre started to get old and a new style replaced his. Only a handful are loyal to him to this day. He has inspired others to play music and continues to play.
Making Songs
He had a few friends who worked in the sound industry and asked them to help record some of his songs. They started working on it and it took a few years before they were released to the public. They also created music on CD’s for younger people. They started arriving at music stores and they gained little attention for a few months before some of his remaining fans found them. He also made some newer songs which he also played live. He has over 30 songs to this day. Alon took a break from music for a few years to take some time to reconnect with his family.
I taught him and he became a legend. He was called the silver ghost but to me he’s just Alon - Mentor
Becoming a famous musician and having a good mentor and family to support him.
Personality Characteristics

His mentor, fans and friends.
Mom and his sister Aqua.
You can do it, Alon. You've been doing this forever and I don't want to see you give it up.
Just because they don't like it anymore doesn't mean it's not good. I still enjoy them.
I appreciate it, Aqua. I need a little break that’s all.— Conversation between Alon's mom, Aqua and Alon
Nice article. The stroh violin sounds super cool. I'm wondering why people started calling him the Silver Ghost. Is there a story behind that?
Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it, He always appeared randomly without anyone knowing. His music always had a light, eerie tone to it and people started associating him with spirits. Whenever they talked about him they would say “the Silver Ghost”. It became his nickname after a few months.
