The Solarian Imperium Characters

Starter Player Character — Solarian Imperium

Kaelith Sunborne

Race: Aasimar
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Class (Suggested): Paladin, Cleric, or Divine Sorcerer
Faction: Solarian Imperium

Appearance

Kaelith stands tall with a lithe, athletic build. His pale skin glows faintly in sunlight, and his golden eyes shimmer with an inner radiance. Silver-gold hair falls to his shoulders, and faint celestial markings trace along his forearms. He wears practical travel garb accented with sun motifs and light armor suited for both combat and exploration.

Personality

Devout yet inquisitive, Kaelith is guided by a strong moral compass but questions blind obedience. Charismatic and earnest, he inspires allies through conviction, though he can be stubborn when confronted with hypocrisy or injustice.

Backstory

Born under a radiant prophecy within the Solarian Imperium, Kaelith was trained in both martial and divine disciplines at Dawnspire Citadel. Though loyal to the Imperium, he believes faith must be tested through action rather than doctrine alone. Now traveling beyond imperial borders, he seeks to uphold the celestial mandate, investigate shadow corruption, and uncover threats that may challenge the Imperium’s understanding of the light.

Abilities

  • Radiant magic and divine smiting

  • Minor healing and protective blessings

  • Sensitivity to shadow-tainted corruption

She wears flowing white-and-gold ceremonial robes embroidered with solar sigils, layered over polished armor when required. A radiant circlet floats above her brow, etched with celestial runes and glowing brightest at sunrise.

Inspiring and charismatic, Caeloria rules through faith and vision rather than fear. She sees herself as a living instrument of the celestial mandate—compassionate toward her people, yet utterly unyielding against shadow and corruption.
