Sol is a member of Element 4, one of the hired mages sent by their master Jose to capture Lucy and bring her back. He specializes in earth magic—controlling and manipulating sand, rocks, and other ground materials in combat. He's earned the nickname "Sol of the earth," which fits perfectly since his name literally means "ground" in French.
What makes Sol stand out is his personality. He speaks with a rhythmic cadence and peppers his dialogue with French, giving him an almost musical quality. This carries over to his actual combat style—he names his attacks after musical compositions mixed with French geological terms, like "Roche Concerto" (rock concerto) or "Plâtre Sonata" (plaster sonata). Beyond standard earth manipulation, he's also shown the ability to wrap his earth-formed body around opponents' limbs or even their entire bodies, making him surprisingly versatile in a fight.
