He really likes Solomon, wants him to succeed, and trudges through the trenches of Solomon's emotional morass from his childhood without being any worse for the wear. Name: John Charles ("J.C.") Westerling Age: 55 years old Occupation: Retired police officer, who is just a few years into his second career of Baptist minister, serving his first church Relation to the main character: a long-time friend of Solomon's dad, David, who is aware of Solomon's childhood abuse, and is therefore both confidant and counselor to Solomon Rough physical description or image: Medium height (5',8") with curly salt & pepper hair of biracial background (Father - African descent, Mother - Japanese descent) His personality is warm, but not bubbly. He is serious about Solomon's need for healing, and is therefore supportive to the Nth degree. Name: Timothy James Golden Age: 30 years old Occupation: Physical Therapist Relation to the main character: Good Friend, via their mutual friend, Joe Handsome Rough physical description or image: Medium build (5',10"), Blond Hair, Southerner, like Solomon, but Timothy grew up around the Mocassin Bend of the Tennessee River, making him a hometown boy, wears a genuine smile and a buddy demeanor. He likes Solomon, too. He is there for Solomon when his younger friend needs him. ------------------------------------- Enemies: Name: Dodgy Whispers (Ephesians 6:12, KJV) Age: Unknown Occupation: Dispenser of Personal Torment to his personal assignments Relation to the main character: The demon, who is assigned to harm Solomon in every possible way. He attached to Solomon during his Mom's first abuse incident when Solomon was too young to remember. Solomon needed an ally against his mother's assaults, and Dodgy became that friend and protector, early on, but it changed into a constant irritant when Solomon sought help to get free from the effects of the abuse. Rough physical description or image: a wispy, darkish cloud, that follows Solomon around everywhere he goes, but in times of intensity and need, Dodgy becomes an angelic human form with a yellowish, orange glow, that ranged from 4' tall when Solomon was a child to about 6' in height when relating to Solomon, the man. Name: Betty Draper Age: 23 years old Occupation: still a college co-ed Relation to the main character: She's a bit of a flirt, open to casual kissing, and tries to tempt Solomon off "the straight and narrow" for her own good pleasure. Rough physical description or image: Shorter than Solomon (5',4"), Dusty Blond Hair, nice tan for a young lady, who was born in the Northeast, finding her way south after high school, wears a sweet, and sultry smile, that is warm enough to accomplish her purposes. She likes Solomon, but really likes what his looks have to offer (in her opinion.) Name: Jerry Jangles Age: 24 years old Occupation: Still a college student Relation to the main character: He's a frenemy to Solomon because it is his mission in life to prove, that all Christians are phonies. Rough physical description or image: Medium build (5',8"), Strawberry Blond Hair, porcelain skin, that is light as the clouds on a sunny day, due to the fact, that he is of Scotch-Irish descent with a brogue, which is still quite noticeable, wears a mischievous smile. He really dislikes Solomon and his beliefs but wants to be liked by Solomon so he can get in close enough to trip him in a truth statement. Jonathan ("Jon") Daniel Cross is Solomon's best friend from childhood. However, Jon still does all the meanness, that he and Solomon used to do together back then. The fact, that Solomon became a Christian, infuriates Jon to the degree of trying to follow Solomon around to slap down and destroy everything, that Solomon creates. He doesn't understand anything about the "so-called Christian walk" as he puts it. Therefore, it becomes his mission in life to prove, that Christians in general, and Solomon in specific are all frauds. "There's nothing to it!" he screams, often. Jon is the kind of guy, that believes, "Christianity is a damned lie!" He tries to prove his belief with every fiber of his being, until his last breath, or until The Lord "knocks him off his high horse," too. (Acts 9:1-9) by Jay O'Toole on October 14th, 2022   |
