Background/Bio
Solstice Jones is a young man with light brown skin and not-quite-curly hair pulled back in a messy ponytail. He wears large round glasses - his eyesight is extremely poor without them - and a handful of small items of jewellery made from parts, such as bracelets woven from wires.
The third of four children, Solstice has with two older sisters (Epiphany and Wednesday) and a younger brother (Sunday). When he was growing up the family lived near a spaceport, and Solstice was obsessed with the ships that came in and out every day. His parents were the typical "poor but hard-working" sort and, seeing his interest, apprenticed Solstice to a mechanic where he turned out to have an aptitude for machines.
