- Clay Mimicry: Solomon's body can become a homogeneous clay that can express various colors which enable him to look like a normal person or camouflage into surroundings.

The clay that his body turns into allows for shapeshifting, weaponizing body parts, elasticity, and many other functions.

- If the clay is hardened, his ability to manipulate it is diminished until it returns to a more malleable state.

- Solomon is a friendly person. He can be professional when required but due to the high stress nature of his work he generally tries to maintain a positive and friendly presence. He often makes jokes and gives advice when asked.
➳ What's their backstory?
- Having been around since the Glory Days, Solomon was a silent hero in a different way than the likes of Silent Knight. But explaining that would be improper. All stories have a beginning, middle and end so it is not right to start in the middle. Solomon was born into a middle class family. He never had everything he wanted but he also never starved. His mother knew what he would eventually become because she had possessed the powers when she was younger and ultimately chosen not to use them. On his sixteenth birthday, just as it had been for his mother, his body began to fall apart. It was a hard year, his entire biology was shifting to accommodate the powers. Solomon's life was uprooted and bound to a hospital bed until he finally managed to pull his body together at the end of the year. He went back to school and eventually college. He moved away from his parents and with that new found independence he made the decision to become a hero. He wanted to make the world better. Solomon set out to stop a rising villain, Bloodstone.
He didn't know the man's powers or his real identity but he was able to narrow down the villain's targets. Bloodstone had a habit of stealing art and there was a new exhibit opening locally that was a prime target. Solomon disguised himself as a guard and entered the exhibit. For the first few hours there was nothing, no intrusion, no attack. The exhibit went off as expected until the last few minutes before closing. Solomon had grown tired and was beginning to doze off at his post when he suddenly realized that he could not move, it was a time before he had learned to turn his entire body into clay and so all he could do was manipulate the clay he expelled from his body. His body was full of blood and that was exactly what Bloodstone could manipulate. Bloodstone moved in, took the art, and then freed everyone. Solomon made the mistake of pursuing him. Blake managed to track Bloodstone to the warehouse where he was storing the art and found him putting the newly acquired pieces into a storage container. Solomon called the police and then attacked to keep Bloodstone where until the police arrived. The villain easily beat him but during the battle some of the art was damaged. In a rage, Bloodstone took a knife and carved Solomon's entire body. If the police hadn't arrived, Solomon would have died that night. Instead it was his brief hero career that did. Solomon spent the three years after trying to hunt Bloodstone down but he never found him.
Later on Solomon learned to control his abilities to their fullest extent and resumed his career as a hero. While he could do good, he found that his greatest gift was his ability to look like other people. He took up the name Decoy and began the work that was mentioned earlier. He became the silent hero. Whenever it was believed that someone would be entering a dangerous situation, Solomon was sent in instead. In his career he has been shot and "killed" 37 times, kidnapped 5, and dismembered 7 while posing as political figures or other heroes. His efforts have gone unrewarded but not unnoticed. All heroes know of him because he is a resource that is there to be used when needed. Yet, when the Glory Days came to an end, Solomon vanished. no one knows where he went or why he left. All that they know is he did.
➳ Anything else we need to know?
- - Solomon's body is not always clay. It can return to it's natural organic state with a great amount of focus.
- Solomon's DNA when in his organic form has strands of clay which make it unique and easily identifiable. This is both an asset and a liability.
- Solomon has worn a variety of faces during his career but none ever looked like his real face.
