Sole-Wielders
Sole-Wielders, also known as ‘Sunshireans’, wield their majique from the sun.
The sole-wielders were the first and original majique users and native people of the land of Solaris. They are rare and rumoured to have been wiped out by commonfolk and other wielders, draining their power. That was until the Solegatti siblings arrived in Selene Valley, bearing their distinctive Sunshirean markings.
Symbol
The Sole-Wielder symbol is an ancient mark bearing the sun. Each triangle represents the majique elements and directions. The circle symbolises the sole/sun and the universe, and the black dot at the centre represents the soul at the centre of the universe. It differs in design princple to the other Wielder symbols due to it being the oldest and lost form of majique.
Alignments
Cardinal direction: East, as the sun rises.
Element: Fire.
Season: Summer.
Chakra: Solar Plexus.
Characteristics
Sole-Wielders have feline characteristics, such as tufted hair resembling cat ears, cat mouths and eyes resembling cats and kittens. The sun tints a Sole-Wielder’s hair lighter, so they tend to have platinum hair or natural ombre hair. In Sunshire, they wear ivory white robes with gold sun symbols woven into them. They dress in white, yellow, orange, red and gold. These majique users tend to be warm and optimistic, shunning out any cold and darkness. They speak in the Ancient Solaris language, known as ‘Sunshirean’ language, which is a form of Latin. Ashley and Blake Solegatti learned English and Italian from their ‘commonfolk’ father, Nikolai Sabatini.
Sunshire
Sole-Wielders live separately from the modern world and technology, opting to live like an ancient civilisation. They have no need for technology because their sun majique powers their society. They live in 'SunShires', a haven for their people. They don't trust outsiders due to Dark Sortileges seeking them out for their light energy, boosting their own power and burning out a sole-wielder to lose their majique, and 'CommonFolk' discriminating against them. In Sunshirean tradition, the woman’s surname is taken, rather than the man’s, so they carry the name Solegatti, rather than Sabatini.
Majique Abilities:
Photosynthesis - Sole-Wielders can grow plants with photosynthesis from the sun’s light.
Heat - They can radiate heat with their hands to keep warm and cook food. They can also warm up a room.
Light - They can draw from the energy they absorbed during the day to cast light to guide their path in the darkness, until it burns out.
Healing - Powerful and experienced Sole-Wielders can heal with the sun’s light bouncing off a sun stone.
Fire - The forbidden taboo. It wasn’t believed to be possible as Sole-Wielders deem themselves beings/beams of light.
Fire-durable - Sole-Wielders cannot be harmed or killed by fire.
Weaknesses:
Darkness/shadows - Sole-Wielders are weakened by darkness and shadows, and that also includes metaphorical darkness and shadows with emotions.
Winter/Cold - They don’t handle the cold well and can die, so they need to rug up and cuddle up to keep warm like a cat. Many Sole-wielders gain body fat during the cold seasons to keep warm, and slim down again during the summer.
Night - With the sun out of their reach, their energy burns out into the night. They have limited energy stored up from the day they can use at night, but when it burns out, it can only be recharged when the sun rises again, like a solar panel.
Sole-Wielder staffs:
Sole-wielders craft their staffs from sacred oak tree branches that have been touched by the sun or fire. The sacred mystical tree in Sunshire is said to be the world's oldest oak tree. It is believed to be the origin of Majique, and it is where Branch got their name from.
