TOPIC
SFC WHAT-NOTS # 50: Tropical Characters



What do you think of when you think “Tropical”? Coconuts? Surfing? Palm Trees? Well any of these are acceptable examples, but what about characters? From massive volcanoes to tiki torches and person-sized wooden masks, there is a lot of personality and culture with various tropical places. Small islands, large jungles, and often an association with tribes and water.

The question today is “What kind of tropical characters do you have?”  These can be characters born in a tropical setting, they could have some kind of tropical trait associated with them. A sentient pineapple, an island spirit, a well-known surfer, and more.

HOSTS’S EXAMPLE

A particular character of mine might be familiar to people as it’s an alternate of an official character: Solaris. This Solaris comes from a different world, having developed over multiple generations as a fire spirit meant to protect her island kingdom. Unfortunately, despite this version of Solaris not having evil intent, the planet was destroyed, and soon after, Solaris was absorbed by a giant called a “Ror Vlaseph” only to be freed quite a number of years later.
