Overview
There are very few Leonine Shifters in the world. And among them Solarian is the undisputed King. The other Leonine Shifters don’t all know each other, but Solarian keeps tabs on them. In fact he keeps tabs on many Shifters throughout the world. Solarian is said to be one of the most eligible bachelors in Cape Town. He gets invited to all the best parties and often takes along any friends who might be visiting. In fact, no one seems to know why, but he is extremely well known in many exclusive circles throughout the world. He seems to be involved in many things, but no one really seems to actually know what he does. Just that he is important and to be courteous to the strange lion shifter.
In reality he is a coordinator for a worldwide information organization. They operate under the guise of the Golden Lion Heavy Lift and Transport, Ltd. Solarian is extremely well connected and has agents all around the world, in and out of the major Corps and militaries. He can often find at least a little info on most things given a bit of time to ask around. Solarian is a master spy. He operates on the same level as some of the higher up Corp agents, but is infinitely more popular and charasmatic. He speaks over 10 languages fluently. So don't try to lie to him. And especially don't try and double cross him.
Solarian is also a contributing member of Jackpoint and offers access to his Runners and agents.
GM Tips
- The man is a lady-killer. He could charm his way out of an S-K kill-box. But he is called "The King of the Jungle" by the other lion shifters for a reason. As a super-spy it is a poor decision to double cross him. As a lion, as a predator, you will probably get eviscerated for it.
- He is a spymaster on the level of the big time Corp spies. But he isn't one to use disposable assets. His agents perform the best because they receive the best in return. Solarian cares for anyone in his network and that has earned his trust. But just like out in the wild, you gotta respect the King.
- Solarian likes to get his hands dirty. He takes a personal role in many transactions. And if things get physical, he has no problem about handling it himself.
