“I am Solomon Kane. Are you prepared to meet your God?”
Based on Robert E. Howard’s legendary character, Solomon Kane joins the One:12 Collective!
The somber-looking Solomon Kane is outfitted in a nobleman’s shirt and vest, duster coat, adventurer pants, and Viking boots. His utility belt and removable chest harness can hold his various weapon sheaths.
Grandmaster swordsman and marksman, Solomon is well-equipped to handle any malevolent forces that may cross his path, complete with the Staff of Solomon, multiple daggers and sheaths, a flintlock pistol, a dirk sword, and much more.
Evildoers beware! Solomon Kane is a man who wanders the world with no apparent goal other than to vanquish evil in all its forms. The early 16th century Puritan protects the world from wickedness and seeks atonement for his past misdeeds. Solomon believes in discipline, order, and an almost ascetic life.
