Name & Supranym
His name was given to him by his English mother Constance Grace, his father having died in a military skirmish before he was born. If he'd survived, the normal tradition of using his personal name (Abay) would have likely been used instead. The couple had agreed on Solomon, though. Constance perished during the Italian invasion of 1936 when Solomon was 18 years old.

Description

Towering 6'7" man of indeterminate age (he's only 22 in 1940, but his lifestyle and powers make him look older than his years), dressed in stereotypical "expedition guide" garb, never found with less than two high-caliber firearms on his person. Going by his English he's apparently of British descent but his weathered skin has been burned so dark he could almost be mistaken for a native. Also speaks Amharic fluently and broken Italian, with a smattering of pidgin trade dialects.

(Secret: Solomon is actually of mixed Amharic-British descent, although he's content to let Europeans believe he's simply a Englishman who's been in Africa for a very long time. A survivor of the fighting in the Second Italo-Ethiopian War who fled west to survive after the nation fell His loyalties still lie very much with Ethiopia and its exiled Emperor Haile Selassie the First, but until a chance to re-establish the Empire arises he's perfectly willing to work with British intelligence to fight the hated fascist no matter what their nationality is. A very private man, he doesn't discuss his real past and rather enjoys inventing (or borrowing) fanciful but contradictory tales of his deeds.)

He gained his powers sometime in 1937 or '38, most likely by passing through an area contaminated by excessive vril radiations. It took him months to even notice that he'd been changed, and there's still nothing to give him away as truly superhuman rather than just very tall and fit - until you see him in action. He's as fast as a nervous cobra and is a sharpshooter without peer even with the heaviest guns, but that could still be merely mortal. But no man alive should be able to outrun a raging water buffalo, let alone with an injured man slung over each shoulder - and he sure shouldn't be able to knock that buffalo out with his bare fists and then carry it off into the bush afterward.<BR>
