Sohl

Sohl is a mixed-man victim of Teil's cruel experimentation.

Personality and Appearance
Sohl's a wiry fellow, with beady eyes and a thin suggestion of a beard. Despite his light build, his limbs seem to not be proportioned as expected.

He's not an example of Dissociative Identity Disorder, as many characters believe. DID has much more dire effects. Further, it's shown that Sohl actually does have four different souls living in his single body, and he's also fully aware when one personality or another takes over.

Each of his individual souls has their own personality. Simon, an ex-priest, is calm and mostly peaceful. When the other personalities create issues or arguments, Simon often steps in to keep the peace. He's very skilled at talking out of situations.

Orel, the ex-soldier, tends to be more aggressive and cause more drama for Sohl than the other personalities do. There's some undertones that he and Lynel met and became gambling friends.

Henry, the scout, is more soft-spoken, similar to Simon. It's not known what type of scout he was, but he has a relatively thick Buckport accent.

Lynel, the Lycanthrope, tends to be fairly negative and hasn't smiled in a long time. He's rather embarrassed about the fact that he turns into a wombat.

History
Sohl doesn't elaborate in Shadowed Peregrine as to why he was imprisoned and experimented on. Lynel's mother teaches at the university in Ephesis.

Activities
Sohl encounters Artemis and Rinir at the Dancing Heifer in Riverscross. He seemed to want advice, as not many Mardocians pass through the area and he wasn't sure if he should go east or west to seek a cure.

Later, Rinir notices a wombat in Chesma's waiting area. Sohl had come to the embassy in Therick to petition to travel to the hospital in Pinchfish to seek treatment for his affliction. Unfortunately, the full moon hits before his meeting with Chesma, but he is able to establish a mental link with Rinir. She discovers that he actually does have multiple souls, supporting his claim that it's not Dissociative Identity Disorder but something else entirely. Chesma agrees to allow Sohl to accompany Rinir to Pinchfish, noting that it will help cover Rinir's actual reasons for crossing the border.
