Solan Solo

"Your heroic deeds send ripples spreading through the Force."

- Jabitha to Solan

Solan Solo was the eldest child of Jaina Solo and Zekk, the younger twin brother of Shmi Solo, and the older brother of Alona. Even before he and his sister were born, their parents, Jaina and Zekk, could sense something special about the both of them. He and Shmi shared an inseparable mental bond.

Solan showed immaculate Force powers as an toddler when he helped his mother defeat a group of mynocks immersed in dark side energy. As he grew older, he eventually developed an affinity and sensitivity towards the Living Force. At the age of thirteen he started his formal Jedi training at his uncle's Jedi Praxeum on Ossus. There, he excelled, becoming one of the best students. He also got into many adventures with his friends Tira Qinn, Korin Elric and his twin sister.

As one of the pivotal players of Tenloss Hyperspace War and the Sith Reborn Crisis, Solan learned to participate in major battles by developing various tactics against the enemy. Due to his actions, Solan was hailed as a galactic hero.

Early Life (42 ABY–54 ABY)


"I have a feeling these two are going to grow up to be something special."

- Jaina Solo

Solan and his older twin sister Shmi were born in 42 ABY near the Maw to Jaina and Zekk soon after the rise of Jacen's Sith Empire. However, after their birth, Jaina and Zekk sent the twins along the Great River where the other Jedi refugee children were to keep them safe from their uncle. The children were taken care off by her mother's friend, Winter, and their father, Zekk, while Jaina traveled to locate the missing Jedi on Belsavis. As time went by, Solan and Shmi gained a special mental bond.

Due to the great instability at that time, Jaina found herself split between visiting her family and leading the rebellion against her brother. However, no matter how hard she tried, Jaina found it difficult to prevent Solan and Shmi from being in constant peril.

Abduction
A year later the Empire discovered the Jedi safehouse on Maw. Imperial stroomtroopers surrounded the place, although most of the Jedi managed to escape to the rendevous point, Zekk and the twins were some of the Jedi that did not make it, and were trapped. Zekk did his best to protect the infant twins but he was shot by a stormtrooper with stun blaster, knocking him out cold. The twins watched in horror as the only home they knew was destroyed. Jaina rushed to the station as quick as she could, but it was too late, Solan and his sister were kidnapped. Fortunately, the twins left behind a trail of pain and grief that was easily sensed by their parents.

When Shmi and Solan awoke they were greeted by none other than Jacen's right hand man, Heol Girdun, and Grand Admiral Jak Nebulax. Girdun explained to them that their parents died in the raid and that he was their guardian. The twins, especially Solan, did not adapt well to the luxuries of the Empire and would frequently use their powers to anger the guards.

Soon afterwards, a mysterious man rescued them and reunited them with their parents. Later the mysery man was revealed to be Ben Skywalker, son of Luke Skywalker, a relative of their's. After the raid on Maw, their parents and the rogue Jedi moved their operations to New Alderaan. As a result of the kidnap attempt the twins were sent to Yannibar to live with their grandparents and C-3PO, who were also hiding from Jacen.

Reunion
"Solan, get down from that tree or else I'll come after you!" "You can't get me!"

- Zekk and Solan



When they were two-and-a-half years old, Solan and Shmi returned to New Aldeeran to live with their parents. Because they had lived away from Zekk and Jaina for quite a while, Solan and Shmi viewed C-3PO as their guardian and Jaina as a stranger. Therefore, they were quite apprehensive during their reunion. By this time, Solan and Shmi demonstrated an ability to move objects with their minds from time to time, an ability known as orbing. They also had further developed the mental bond that they had been born with and had a tendency to use it to complete each other's sentences or getting into mischief. Not long after their reunion, their younger sister Alona was born. As Solan grew older he and his mother grew very close. As a result, he gained his mother's cockiness and temperament. Unlike Shmi and Alona, Solan would find ways to test their father's patience, though Solan loved him very much.

Because Jaina was gone most of the time, Zekk found himself trying to keep a precarious balance between his duties as a father and his duties as a Jedi. To keep himself from being overwhelmed by the tasks that confronted him, Zekk enlisted C-3PO's help. The team of Threepio and Artoo would typically take care of the twins and their sister when their parents were away. C-3PO would also recite stories such as The Little Lost Bantha Cub, a story which they favored over the others.

Rebellion against the New Order
Taking Ben's advice, Zekk and Jaina fled to Polis Massa while Alona was sent to Ossus. While en route to the asteroid, they encountered Jacen's ship, but managed to evade it long enough to land the Falcon on the asteroid planet. Jacen, hot on their trail, managed to catch up with them, thus starting a duel between Ben and Jacen while Jaina and Zekk fled with the twins. The twins became seperated from their parents shortly afterwards, and were soon greeted by their uncle's deadly Sith mynocks. Using their mental bond, Shmi and Solan were able to destroy the mynocks using the Force. After the mynocks were dealt with, Solan and Shmi sensed that their mother was in danger and quickly ran to her rescue, only to find her knocked out and wounded.

Guided by the spirit of his great grandfather, Anakin Skywalker, Solan fell into a trance like state and used his mother's lightsaber to kill the remainder of the mynocks while Shmi healed Jaina. Soon after they mother awoke and reunited with Zekk. After the ordeal Solan acted like nothing ever happened.

The victory on Polis Massa did nothing to stop their uncle from purusing the twins and their mother. With Jacen hot on their heels, Lumpawarro and Lowbacca attempted to create a diversion, hoping to trick Jacen into thinking that Jaina and the children had fled Onderon. In reality, Solan, Shmi, and Alona embarked on a day-long journey to Anoth with their parents. Jacen did not fall for the ruse and managed to track his quarry right to the room where the twins, Alona and their parents were staying. They were captured by Jacen and whisked aboard his flagship, the Anakin Solo, named after their late uncle.

The twins and Alona could do little more but look on as their parents, Kyp Durron, and Skywalker fought their uncle. Jacen was thwarted in his attempt to kill the children and their mother, but it came with a large price; that of Kyp Durron's life. After the new Galactic Alliance had retaken Coruscant, Solan, Shmi, and Alona were finally allowed to live with their parents on ecumenopolis.

New Rebellion
"This is intense! Way better than the hologames!"

- Solan

After his uncle's defeat aboard the Anakin Solo, the New Galatic Alliance was formed and Ben Skywalker rebuilt the New Jedi Order, which once again bringing peace and justice to the galaxy. However, peace would not last, as seven years later a criminal organization called the Imperial Alliance, headed by Admiral Niathal Nebulax, began to make trouble for the galaxy.



In 51 ABY, Solan and his siblings accompanied their mother on a diplomatic mission to Coruscant while their father stayed to run the new Jedi Praxeum with Ben on Ossus. They attended a huge reception, in which the children wondered off, causing quite a bit of panic. To Jaina's relief they were found by Jagged Fel, a friend of their mother's. After the reception, they moved into Senator Pooja's Naberrie's house, who was, unbeknownst to them, a distant relative of theirs. The children were the left in the care of Threepio and Artoo while Jaina went to the conference with Senator Naberrie. While they were, there Solan and his siblings befriended the Queen of Naboo. During the first night of the trade summit, while their parents were away, the three children overheard a conversation between their mother, Pooja, and one other senator. They learned of a plot which involved the destruction of entire star systems.

Solan, Shmi, and Alona wound up cooped up in "Aunt Pooja's" house with R2-D2, C-3PO and their tutor. They watched helplessly from their apartment as the enclaves on Coruscant burned to the ground and bodies piled up in the streets in the first stages of what would come to be known as the Imperial Rebellion. When the house came under fire, Threepio decided that at this point it was time to leave, piling the children and the droids in the Millennium Falcon. Threepio decided that the best thing to do was to visit the Queen on Naboo. By the time that they reached Naboo, the Falcon's old hyperdrive was rendered obsolete.

Solan, Shmi, and Alona were happy to accept the hospitality of the Queen and received a lesson about Nubian traditions as well. The following morning after breakfast, Solan and his siblings related to the Queen their experience at Coruscant, relaying the conversation and recording that they had seen and heard.

Right after they related to the Queen their findings, Solan and his siblings were kidnapped by Admiral Nebulax. After they effected some repairs with the help of the droids, Shmi flew the Millennium Falcon out of the mouth of the ship with the Admiral in hot pursuit. Though they didn't have much experience in flying ships, Shmi managed to evade the Admiral while Solan used his gunnery skills to destroy Nebulax's lasers. While they were busy Alona contacted her father at the Praxeum and informed them of the attack on Coruscant.

Soon after Zekk arrived and rescued Jaina, who was on Coruscant at the time. With their help, Jaina and Zekk were able to capture Admiral Nebulax and end the Imperial Rebellion.

Jedi Training (55 ABY–62 ABY)


"I prefer straightforward methods."

- Solan Solo to Ben Skywalker

In 55 ABY, at the age of thirteen, Solan and his sister were allowed to attend Ben's Jedi Praxeum on Ossus and begin their training. At the praxeum, he and sister gained many friends, including Korin, Tira, and Connor. While his sister gained an affinity for ships, Solan wanted to gain knowledge about the Force. Like his uncle, Anakin Solo, Solan believed that the Force was a tool to be used at a Jedi's disposal. In addition to this, Solan adapted the view of the Living Force. At the praxeum, Solan honed his impressive talents in the Force, becoming one of the Academy's most powerful students. This would later add to his ego, making him extremely arrogrant and somewhat aggressive. However, in later years he would come to understand the consequences of his agressive actions, and become more reserved and serene.

It was also during this time that Solan, Shmi, and their friends were tasked with building their first lightsabers. Solan created a ice green lightsaber using a green gem he found near a river during one of his travels. During his time at the Academy, Solan, Shmi, Tira, and Connor would go on exciting adventures and learn valuable lessons that would eventually ill-prepare them for the dark days ahead.

Brush with the dark side
During their training, Solan, Shmi, and their friends encountered the remnants of the old Sith Order of Darth Bane. On a field trip to Ilum, the twins, Connor, and Tira were kidnapped by a man in dark robes. After reversion to realspace, a Sith soldier told Solan, Shmi and their friends that they would be trained to become Dark Jedi once they arrived at their destination—the Sith temple.

Solan's training at the Sith Temple began with exercises in which he had to defend himself from holo-remotes. Solan was later put in a variety of sadistic scenarios which involved him unknowingly dueling his sister and another where he was forced to disable one the Sith soldiers.

After Solan survived the latter scenario and learned how visualize objects in the Force in the process, he, his sister, Connor, and Tira were informed by the Sith Lord of his plans to kidnap more "recruits" from the Praxeum. Solan decided that it was time to attempt escape. After their training exercise Solan escaped his cell using a stolen lightsaber and rescued his sister and friends. Soon afterwards, Ben and Alona arrived to rescue the group. They escaped to Ossus using the Imperial ship, Night Stalker. Solan and his friends then went to Coruscant for a month-long vacation. After his experience with the dark side, Solan would question his own beliefs about the Force.

The adventure at Stars' End
"This thing's older than grandpa!" "Watch it kid. Keep talking like that and you're going to find yourself floating home!"

- Solan and Han upon arriving at Stars' End

Not long after their trip to Ennth, Solan and his sisters accompanied their elderly grandfather Han Solo and Lumpy on a trip to visit their grandfather's longtime friend Lando Calrissian, who resided on Bespin. However, trip turned out to be a disastrous one when Lumpy went missing during a tour of the facility. The twins looked around the theme park while Han, Lando, and Alona began their search in Cloud City. Hacking into the city's central computer, Solan and Shmi discovered the existence of the asteroid Stars' End, which was believed to be the place where Lumpy was taken to. Armed with this information, the Solos and Calrissian set out for Stars' End.

During their search for Lumpy, the Solo twins were joined by their mother, Jaina, and their great aunt, Mara Jade Skywalker. They searched the asteroid's last known locations, which stretched from ancient ruined worlds to the Wookiee planet of Kashyyyk. Meanwhile, members of Stars' End, believing that Lumpy was his father Chewbacca, proceeded to try to kill the Wookiee. Things went badly for the Jedi when they learned of the Imperials' plot to destroy the Galactic Alliance and get revenge on Solo for betraying the Empire. The Imperials planned to use artificial toxins to poison whole populations. However, they first needed to test it, and chose to test it on Han.

Realizing the danger of the toxin, the Solos infiltrated the asteroid only to be arrested by the Imperial authorities and put to work in the dangerous mines of Stars' End while their grandfather was taken prisoner by its commander. Fortuantely, he, Shmi, and their grandfather were saved by Alona. The young Jedi then discovered that the Imperials were stockpiling weapons for an impending war against Alliance. The group was eventually rescued and taken off-planet by Calrissian, Tira, Alona and their father.

Back at the Galactic Alliance Senate on Coruscant, Leia requested that an inspection team be sent to the asteroid to investigate reports of illegal weapons and toxins. After recording an encrypted message to his wife explaining their plan, Lando, Shmi, Solan, Alona, Lumpy, Allana and Tira flew in Ben Skywalker's ship, Skywalker's Legacy, with the intent of using its superior firepower in order to destroy the asteroid base. Meanwhile, a Galactic Alliance fleet under the command of Han and Jaina Solo defeated the Stars' End Imperial fleet. After discovering the existence of the weapons and chemicals, the Alliance proceeded to capture the Imperials, thus beginning the battle. The battle ended quickly when Solan and his siblings managed to destroy the asteroid. After the incident Solan and his sister were promoted to apprentice Jedi Knights. Solan was apprenticed to the brash Valin Horn.

Tenloss Hyperspace War
"Don't get too cocky Solan!"

- Jaina Solo to her son



His greatest test would come during the devastating Tenloss Hyperspace War that exploded in 58 ABY. On a mission to Fondor, Solan and his master discovered the remnants of the Tenloss Criminal Syndicate, a criminal organization thought to be destroyed in the Clone Wars. Soon after, Solan learned that their leader, Crion Exel, was in league with the Sith. After barely escaping death Solan and Jedi Master Valin Horn raced back to Coruscant to warn the Galactic Alliance of the coming danger.

Following the discovery Solan joined his sister in Rogue Squadron, and participated in the Battle of Fondor under the command of his mother. Using a Force meld with his sister and mother, Solan managed to destroy ten ships. During the battle Solan attempted to defend the flagship of the Galactic Alliance fleet, Skywalker's Legacy, though the enemy succeeded in destroying it. The explosion destroyed Solan Solo's X-wing, though he managed to eject himself into space and was later retrieved. Fortunately, Solan suffered only minor burns to his body.

Solan soon recovered and was made into a Jedi Knight, the ceremony being performed by his own father. However, tradegy struck when Shmi went missing in an explosion during the Battle of Kalabra the next year. The whole family was devastated by the news but Solan assured himself that his sister was alive somewhere. To make things worse Alona chose not to fight, a decision Solan was displeased with. This solidified his cause against the Sith and The Tenloss Criminal Syndicate.

Hero of the Galactic Alliance
As the war continued, Solan became a hero of the Galactic Alliance and the galaxy at large. Many regarded Solan as the Hero With No Fear, a title previously given to his great-great-grandfather during the Clone Wars. Once his sister returned to Coruscant, Solo was charged with orchestrating a ground assault on the planet of Neimoidia, a pivotal member of the Tenloss Criminal Syndicate and the newly revived Trade Federation. With the help of Mandalore Merc Gev and his Mandalorian soldiers, coupled with his leadership of a group of Jedi, the Galactic Alliance was victorious.

Solan also participated in the Battle of Hapes. It was his idea to use his starfighter to place concussion charges on critical weak points of the Trade Federation Dreadnaught-class cruisers. His plan was a success, and helped to achieve a GA victory. After the battle, Solan returned to Coruscant, where he was ambushed by a Sith in one of Galactic City's industrial sectors. Solan managed to defeat him and gain information about the mysterious pilot Shmi was talking about. According to the Sith he went by the name "Reaper" and like him, this Reaper was also a Sith. But before he tell Solan his true identity the Sith was killed by a blowdart to the neck.

Later, Solan helped thwart a Techno invasion of Mandalore and the Reaper's attempt to take the weapons factory on Bespin. She also helped in the defense of Chandrila,leading a fighter squadron which consisted of the newly built XJ9 wings, the new models created by his sister. The battle was a victory for the Galactic Alliance partly due to the intervention of Mandalore Merc Gev and his Mandalorian attack force. Shortly afterwards, it was discovered that Alliance was prducing a chemical agent that would wipe out both of the Ten and Techno armies. Despite the threat of the bioweapon, Darth Krayt kept pressing the attack. However, when the Ten armada received word that the weapon was operational, Krayt ordered the fleet to withdraw from their advance.

Attack on the Temple
The war was becoming one the most devastating that the galaxy ever faced. Each day many were dying. Worse, many people were beginning to lose faith in the Jedi.

In 61 ABY, the Jedi Temple on Coruscant fell under attack by Darth Krayt and his Sith forces. During the battle Solan hijacked a TIE fighter and took on the Sith fighters. With Artoo and Tira's help, Solan faced off against the Trade Federation and Sith armies.

Sensing that his sisters were in trouble, Solan exited the battle and headed for the planet. He arrived to the Jedi Temple, which was now in flames. Solo was confronted by two Sith, each holding two lightsabers. He managed to kill one and overpower the other but before he could finish the duel a detonator was set off. Fourtnately, he was able to make a crafty escape.

Solan regrouped with the others on Ossus where he and his family learned of Darth Krayt's kidnapping of Shmi. To make things worse he learned that the "Reaper" was actually Connor, his best friend. Enraged at this revelation he vowed that the Sith and Connor were going pay for kidnapping his sister.

War's end


Though enraged that Connor was welcomed back into the Jedi Order, Solan nevertheless joined in the attack against the Tenloss Syndicate and Trade Federation in hopes of rescuing his sister. Gaining the rank of Commander, Solo participated in Operation Jedi Strike leading Team Wampa on the Trade Federation planet of                            Geonosis.

Once they arrived on Geonosis, where the remains of the Trade Federation was believed to be located, the group split up. They hoped to catch Haako Rendir, leader of the Techno army. A heated but short battle followed, during which Solan and his Team destroyed the Trade Fedration Base, killing Haako. Eventually, Alona and Ben were able to destroy the Techno army's starships, causing the droids to shut down.

Once again the tides of battle seem to shift in their favor. Shortly afterwards, Solan and his family were reunited with Shmi. After their sucessful win on Geonosis and Neimodia, Galactic Alliance Intelligence discovered that Darth Krayt had another Sith temple on the planet of Dantooine. As a result, in 62 ABY, the Battle of Dantooine broke out. After they managed to enter the temple with Shmi's help, the Solo kids, Ben, and Connor, fought their way through the legions of Sith and made it to Darth Krayt's chamber. During the final battle Solan dueled Krayt but was knocked out trying to save Alona from his attack. He eventually awoke, using telekinisis to pull his lightsaber to him, managing to throw it to Alona. Using his lightsaber, she wounded Krayt's right eye, catching him off guard. Shortly afterwards, Solan witnessed his sister encase Krayt in his armor by using the Force, abruptly ending the battle.

Solan and the others were later congratulated by Chief of State Leida Mothma and the Galactic Alliance. For their efforts, Solan, Shmi, Connor, and many other apprentices were knighted.

Sith Reborn Crisis
"Just when you thought things weren't going to get worse, this happens."

- Solan

Dark future
In 66 ABY, Solan, his family, and the other Jedi received a distress call from Zonama Sekot. Venturing off into the Unkwown Regions with Tira and the others, Solan reunited with his younger sister and befriended Magister Jabitha Hal. According to the Magister, the Sith weren't destroyed as everyone was led to believe, in fact, they were able to regain more followers, continuing Darth Krayt's Order. It was also learnt that newly reformed Sith, or the Sith Reborn, lead by Darth Tanis were after Solan and his family&mdash;particularly Shmi, who was now pregnant with twins. Feeling that it was best for his sister, Solan chose to stay with Shmi and Jabitha.



Later that year, Solan and Jabitha ventured off into the caves of Zonama Sekot where Hal showed him a prophecy relating to twice-blessed children who were born with unnatural powers and were destined to lead a group of new Jedi. At first he thought of himself and Shmi but as Jabitha continued to explain, Solan came to realize that the prophecy was talking about Shmi's unborn twins. After spending much time with Jabitha, Solan returned to Coruscant for a gathering at the Temple. At the gathering, Solan learned that the Sith Lord they had killed was no more than a double for the real one that still existed somewhere. Solan was then chosen to lead a search team that was assembled to locate the Sith Lord; much to the dismay of his sister, Alona. Like Shmi and Jaina, Solan also sensed Alona's inner conflict and began believing that she was falling to the dark side. Their search ended up being a dead end as all traces of the Sith disappeared. After returning from the Outer Rim Territories, Solan was contacted by Jabitha, who warned him that the Sith were growing in numbers.

The war begins
Things became ugly when Tanis and the Sith Reborn invaded the Galactic capitol of Coruscant, asking all Jedi to stand down in order to avoid war. Refusing to agree to such an offer, the Jedi stood their ground against the Sith invaders. Meanwhile, Galactic Alliance Intelligence arrived to help evacuate the city, sending reinforcements to aid Master Skywalker and Solo. Despite the help, the battle ended with a huge loss of civilians and the possession of Coruscant by the Dark Lord. It was here that Shmi gave birth to twins, Anakin and Amara Solo. Shortly after their birth, the group was attacked by Sith apprentice Krea Kaan, who managed to tracked them to their apartment. He defeated the Sith by catching her off guard with a Force push. The Solos then fled the horrific scene via the Millennium Falcon, arriving at the refugee camps set up on Mandalore.

The news of the Sith's occupation of Coruscant reached to worlds in the Mid Rim and Outer Rim Territories, sending them a wakeup call that danger was headed their way. Now more than ever the galaxy needed the Jedi, completely trusting their safety in the hands of the Jedi Order.

Immediately afterwards, Solan accompanied Shmi on her diplomatic mission to Csilla, where they were expected to see Chiss officials. The mission ended in a violent ambush, in which the Jedi were nearly bombarded by Chiss ships. Unfortunately, their chances of escape were futile once the Chiss fleet bombed their transport in hopes of destroying them with it. They managed to escape to an abandoned military base where they reunited with their younger sister, who had brought along help in the form of GA Intel troops under her command. Not long after the reunion, the group was attacked by Krea Kaan and her newly built Jedi Hunter Droids, droids designed for fierce combat with Jedi.

Succumbing to fatigue, the group made a hasty retreat, escaping Kaan and her JHDs. Luckily for them, Master Skywalker arrived and took them off-planet. En route to the rendezvous point on Duro, Krea mobilized her attack on Hapes. Shmi rushed off to rescue Anakin and Amara without Solan's knowledge. After learning of the situation, Solan and Alona boarded the Soulless and hurried off after her, defying Ben's orders as well. They managed to find Shmi despite their constant bickering, interupting a duel between Shmi and two Sith Reborn. The two Sith managed to escape before Solan was able to question them. The Battle of Hapes ended in victory for the Alliance due to the timely arrival from Hapan forces from Terephon.

A shocking betrayal
In the following months Solan divided his time leading campaigns on various worlds. Solan and Shmi were called upon by Jedi Master Dania Garrett to aid her on Bastion. After hearing the call, the two headed for the planet on the Falcon. However, when they reached Bastion the Solos were greeted by an angry mob. To avoid the chances of anyone getting hurt, Solan quieted the crowd by using a Jedi mind trick. The strange response to their arrival had both Solan and Shmi puzzled as they believed that the inhabitants of Bastion were stern believers in the Jedi Order and the Alliance. After evading mobs, the two Jedi discovered a laboratory which contained a mind influencing serum. Figuring out that the serum was being used to influence the minds of the inhabitants, Solan and Shmi sabatoged the lab. Before they could administor the antidote, they were confronted by scientist Tono Garbon and Master Garrett, who was under the influence of the serum. Shmi was able to coax Dania out her zombie-like state while Solan captured the scientist.

After the disastrous Battle of Raxus Prime in 67 ABY, things got worst for the Alliance when Leida Mothma was forced to resign after a vote of no confidence was called for by the Imperial faction. It wasn't long before Solan was able to figure out that Alona was also a target. His insight also led him to believe that there were still Sith Agents in the G.A Intel. After trying numerous times to convince his sister of this, Solan requested that Alona be suspended from duty, an act that infuriated her. An angry Alona vowed never to work with her brother again. Solan didn't have time to contemplate his actions but he still kept a closer eye on Alona as requested by his mother, who was also worried. Within a year, the losses of many began to weaken the bond forged by many during the Galactic Civil War. One such loss devastated the Solo-Skywalker family. While defending Rhen Var, Jedi Knight Zayne Arkel was slain in battle by enemy forces. Alona, with whom Zayne was extremely close with, was most devastated by that loss. A mournful funeral followed as everyone gathered on Coruscant to say their final goodbyes. Solan tried to make amends with his sister at the funeral but couldn't bring himself to tell her that he would always love her. Solan didn't have time to grieve once he and his family were summoned to defend Zonama Sekot from the Chiss and the dark siders, the Rakata. While his parents and Ben were flying Sekotan ships in space, Solan, Alona, and Syah Lon went on-planet to join the other Jedi in aiding the inhabitants. To their suprise, they had not only discovered the planet in ruins but a group of rampaging voxyn, thought to be destroyed nearly four decades earlier. During the encounter, Solan and Syah became separated from Alona. The two eventually defeated their predators and helped reactivate the planet's massive hyperdrive. Solan and the others were forced to retreat while Zonama Sekot, weakened as result of the battle, once again vanished into hyperspace. The invasion was thrawted but it was at a heavy price as it costed many Jedi their lives. Meanwhile, Alona became what the Jedi feared the most – a Sith.

Personality
"Child, you have your mother's fire but you also have her lack of common sense."

- Tarq Niathal to Solan

Solan was perhaps the most troublesome of the Solo children, especially from Zekk's point of veiw. As a child, Solan strongly resembled his mother in personality. He was always not without a temper, and always getting upset when he was insulted or hurt. As a child, Solan would often play jokes on Threepio and Artoo, such as turning them off and venturing into the forests of New Aldeeran. However, he was saved before any harm befell on him. Solan was often seen as a bully to his younger sister, Alona, though he cared for her very much. He was very much the opposite of his twin sister, Shmi, who was 'the good twin.' Though he often caused his father the most trouble, Solan still loved his father very much, viewing him as a hero.

As he grew well into his adolescent years, Solan matured, leaving behind some of his playful traits. During his training at the Praxeum on Ossus, Solo learned that his agressive actions were danger to himself and his friends if he let them consume him. After the disastrous experience at the Sith Academy on Korriban, Solan became more reserved but still clung on to his ideals. During the Ten War, Solo proved himself to be a good leader, and his leadership played a pivotal role in defeating the enemy. As a result, he became a hero of the Galactic Alliance, just like his great uncle and great-grandfather before him.

Talents
Solan was considered a very powerful Jedi by many, including Ben Skywalker. He was a very gifted Force user and talented duelist. At the tender a age of three Solan was able to save both his mother and sister from harm, with a helping hand from his great-grandfather, Anakin Skywalker. Like the rest of his family, Solan was also a very gifted pilot, his skills on par with his sister though, she was clearly the better flyer as evident in their training sessions together.
