Occupation: Sol Warrior & Heir to the Throne

Personality: Sunburst comes from a militaristic society. For that reason, Sunburst has a very military minded persona. He rarely smiles, tends to be serious most of the time, is stubborn, hates to be wrong, hates being told what to do, hates being corrected by other people and loves to train and fight. Though he can come off as a bit harsh, he is a natural leader and he can be pretty respectful to those around him.

Biography: Sunburst is a prince and elite warrior from Solra, a planet that is 6 galaxies away from our Milky Way Galaxy. Sunburst grew up in a very militaristic, yet highly developed civilization. His planet is a patriarchal society, and they have males and females on his planet. The people of his planet believe that survival is everything. They believe that the strongest man is the last man standing. His people spend many hours building advanced weapons and warships for battle. They also train their young to be exceptional warriors at a young age, and the kids go to school in order to learn how to fight and become warriors. During his lifetime, Sunburst has proven that he is worthy of his elite warrior and prince status. He has led his people into war against an enemy planet and drove that species into extinction. Because his people have a no nonsense attitude, many species are afraid to engage them in battle. Going to war with his people usually means extinction for that species.

Note: Despite the fact that they spend their entire lifetime fighting and preparing weapons for war, they are not evil. They only go to war and use their weapons their advanced weaponry if they feel they have to. There have only been two instances where they had to obliterate 2 species, but they felt it was necessary for their survival. His people will only attack if they are provoked. Because of their ways, Solranites are one of the most feared species in many galaxies.

Hobbies: Sunburst enjoys building weapons, training by himself or with his comrades and coming up with battle strategies.

Dislikes: Laziness, people who are unwilling to train and get stronger, being corrected by people and being told what to do by anyone but his parents.

Powers: As his name may suggest, Sunburst and his people obtain their power from the sun. Within his galaxy, his planet is surrounded by 4 suns. His people can harness power from the suns and use it for battle.

-His people have much more durable bodies than humans.

-His people have slightly greater strength levels than human. For example, it is not uncommon for an infant Solranite to have the ability to lift 80 lbs.

-They have the ability to fly.

-His special ability is something his people called the Sun Aura. The Sun Aura is an ability that comes from the power of the sun. When their auras are engaged, a yellowish tint appears over them. This aura is what makes them very dangerous and fierce. They have the ability to melt objects in an instant with this powerful aura. They have the ability to blast the energy of this aura at their opponents, either making their opponents catch on fire or melting them. They can also enhance their melee attacks with this aura. This is just a small list of abilities they have with the Sun Aura.

-Solranites have the ability to deplete and steal body heat from other species. In the case of Fire Spin and Tar, Sunburst could easily steal the heat from their powers and render them temporarily powerless.

Weakness: -Solranites are pretty much rendered powerless if they are not near a sun source. The farther away they are from a sun source, the more their powers weaken.

Family: Father (King of Solra) & Mother (Queen of Solra)

Inspirations: The Solranites were inspired by Saiyans (DBZ) and Kryptonians (DC). I always enjoyed the fact that the saiyans were an elite race of warriors, who were feared by many species. I also loved the fact that they loved to fight and train. As for the Kryptonians, I liked how their powers were correlated with the yellow sun. Both the Saiyans and Kryptonians inspired me to create a race of people that loved to fight and also had powers related to the sun.
