Thanks to in-game development, Solomon can see souls!
He can't (yet) see details that explicitly impact people; ie he can't see someone's deep, dark secret. His ability to distinguish actual in-process patterns is in the works, and even though there are things he can see, he doesn't always understand their causes/impacts.
Primarily, how his sight works is no different to noticing someone's physical description, except that a person's soul doesn't lie, so he'll be able to see major scars/missing bits, and things like that. So far he's documented differences between things like:
- species/cultural upbringing (ie kedan are family-orientated, but can shapeshift, which gives them a unique 'soulprint' human family-oriented cultures wouldn't have)
- some kinds of emotions, particularly strong ones
- lingering scars vs actual missing bits.
SO if you have a description of your character's soul, please let me know here! If there's something that would show up but you'd rather he not see details for at any time, even after his sight progresses, also let me know! Souls are wibbly-wobbly things and it's easy for details to be lost.
(NOTEbecause Am: No need to actually use the above dash-points as a guideline for how to describe your character's soul. Unless you want to, in which case go ahead.)

(NOTE
no subject
-He's been a vigilante in Gotham since he was thirteen, with all the attendant emotional baggage that comes with being one of Batman's junior partners--i. e., a belief in justice, and a heck of a lot of repression.
-He's actually experienced quite a bit of loss in his life (lots of friends and family have died, and while some have come back since, it doesn't change the fact that it happened). So he's probably got lots of emotional scars from that.
-Happy to answer any other questions if I'm not thorough enough!
