Joseph Solaris was a scientist of the Kingdom of Levan  and the first director of Project Miracle. After brainwashing the witch Maria Midrise  to fall in love with him, Joseph used her for the project's experiments. Although Maria was unable to bear the twin gods, Arte  and Ares , Joseph fell in love with her and agreed to run away with her to  the Mysterious Forest , where the two married and later adopted the twins Hansel  and Gretel.

History
Born in PT 022 as the son of the Queen of Levan, Joseph felt resentment at a young age because of him not being considered a prince by the others. He grew up to be an excellent scientist in the Kingdom of Levan. At some point, the Senate and Noah Midnight took Joseph's mother away from him secretly. Uninformed of this event, Joseph announced that he would be the one to lead Project Miracle.

After the first batch of candidates, Joseph was able to find Maria Midrise, a famous witch in Ruyashi village. Once she passed the tests, he gave her a "medicine" that was thought to help deliver the twin gods into the world.

As part of the project, Joseph oversaw the procedure as Maria was inoculated with the god's seed and, once it was confirmed that she conceived twins, awaited their birth. However, the children  were stillborn and the project was a failure;  realizing he had miscalculated the medicine's effects, Joseph became distraught over the revelation. With all his hopes and ambitions lost, Joseph grieved over what he had done to Maria and then realized that he had truly fallen in love with her.

Beginning of the Virtues
Fleeing with his lover to Diraska, the two hid in a small home  in the Mysterious Forest as woodcutters. He married Maria, telling her that he loved her and she reciprocated the sentiment. Some time later, in VC 001,  Joseph saw Maria return home one night and came to greet her. However, when he saw her hold two infants in her arms, a boy  and a girl, he was horrified.

As he tried to keep the fear in his voice, Joseph explained to his wife that their children were gone and that she had to return the ones she held back to their mother. After Maria screamed at the realization, he told her she could fix it if they do it now. However, Maria retorted, saying that it was too late and that  outside their home was a woman Maria killed who had a glass bottle of milk with her: the mother.

Now that the children had no parents, the couple had no choice but to raise the children as their own. In VC 014, a year after the Levan Catastrophe, they both reluctantly agreed to abandon the children, Hansel and Gretel, within the forest to survive the famine. With a sorrowful expression, he and his wife led the children and abandoned them, returning home soon after.

With Maria devastated by the event, Joseph comforted her while she sat in a chair crying. Soon after, they heard a knock on the door and answered, horrified to see the manic expressions of their abandoned children at the entrance. Suddenly grabbed by the spectral shadows the twins spawned, Joseph's foster son happily implored his father to praise him for defeating the wicked witch's henchman. While their children laughed, [22]  Joseph was murdered by the shadowy arms. [23]
