Description Solomon Kane is a public domain character. This (copyrighted) interpretation was realized with HeroMachine3.


Solomon Kane is a sombre and gloomy man of pale face and cold eyes who wandered the world of the late 16th/early 17th century with no apparent goal other than to vanquish evil in all its forms. After decades of adventures that took him from Europe to the jungles of Africa and back, he found his final destiny in 1612 in colonial Massachusetts at a village called Salem when he followed a lead to the lost colony of Roanoke. Once arrived in Salem he heard the legend of a witch that lived in the nearby woods and was allegedly responsible for the vanishing of three young girls.

Solomon took up the pursuit of the putative witch, and eventually led the men of Salem to a cabin deep in the woods where they encountered a young beautiful herb woman that lived alone in reclusion. The men took her to the village and after a very short trial she was declared guilty of witchcraft and sentenced to death. Although he was not really totally convinced of the guilt of the woman, Solomon watched idly by as she was finally burned at the stake.

But because of this inaction he owed the curse of the burning woman who condemned him to "restlessly wander the earth to all eternity solely in the hope of redemption from his sins on the "Judgment Day". It took him just a few more decades to realize that he was now immortal...


Powers:

Due to the curse of the "witch", Solomon is immortal in the sense that he is resurrected after each death by external causes. That also means that he can't die of natural causes since he is immune to all known Earthly diseases and infections and doesn't age beyond his current form. But that doesn't make him invulnerable and so every lethal injury leaves a mark on him when he rises from the dead. He is also immune to any form of magic.
