Sol (Dimensions)

Sol is a playable character in Final Fantasy Dimensions. He is a boy from the small country of Lux, and is childhood friends with Diana and Glaive. He dreams of becoming a soldier of the Avalon Empire and flying an airship. He is one of the four Warriors of Light chosen by the crystal of Lux.

Story
While traveling across the forest to the Checkpoint to welcome back Aigis, Sol sees an Avalonian airship fly over Lux before being surprised by Glaive's attack. After the fight, Diana joins the two and Sol learns that they too are wanting to welcome Aigis back. But once reaching Lux, Sol unknowingly hurts Diana's feelings before he joins her in infiltrating the Castle Lux to find how the reason for Aigis being called for. Sol and party later joins Aigis on a mission to check on the crystal of Lux. Along the way, they meet a wandering prophet named Elgo. In the crystal chamber, Sol gets defeated by the guardian of the crystal, and later four people appear with the mission of stealing the crystal.

After a huge explosion, Sol is separated from Glaive and Diana and is instead joined by Dusk and Sarah. He then learns that he, Sarah, Dusk, and Aigis are the Warriors of Light. The warriors of light then travel with Elgo to Lux, only to find it gone. They decide to travel to Castle Liene. Along the way, Sarah and Dusk reveal that they were sent by Avalon to steal the crystal.

Starting abilities
Sol comes equipped with the counter ability, for which the in game description states that it "sometimes counterattacks when hit by a physical attack". This ability tends to become evident even as early as the first battle, as Glaive only strikes with physical attacks. The counters will be for less damage than normal attacks, however and the ability takes up one of four available slots.
