Although they are written and themed together, they are two separate trees, one is ranged vs Fort, the other is themed melee vs Reflex.
These trees are intentionally left incomplete, they only show the abilities that Solomon has.

Solomon was once a doctor serving in the marines, and watched from the sidelines as they clashed with pirates. Over time, Solomon grew to despise violence, but he was only a doctor so he hoped that by helping people of both sides - when convenient - some might be persuaded to change their paths.

One day he helped save a pirate captain, who thanked him by giving him a devil fruit. He said he didn't have anything else of value to give him, but also warned that he was given this, the power to change the world with a curse, so he had not dared to eat it.

Solomon kept it but did not eat it, and having little need of money, kept it quietly to himself. One day hearing of an icy triangle at sea, where ships disappeared - notably marine ones - he volunteered to go in the hopes of rescuing people. They eventually found the place, but not quite the right way - their ship too got frozen and people started to freeze. Solomon went with a team to trek across the ice to another frozen ship, and he also found marines frozen in ice. Solomon was deeply disturbed that as a doctor, he could do nothing, and his own crew - himself included - was likely to die here starving to death while trapped in ice. He left the team to brood alone in certain death in the cold, and decided to eat the devilfruit. Better to be cursed and help those he could, than to die along with everyone else.

After taking the devil fruit, he felt hunger, an all-consuming hunger. Clambering the vessel he had just explored not so long ago, he cracked open the ice with his hand in the shape of a pickaxe, splintering the ice with ease. The marine moved, but Solomon was too hungry... he drained the man on the spot and hurled his dessicated body off into the snow. But then his mind cleared, and he set to freeing the others... giving them his blood to sustain them, give them strength, and send them back to his ship, but also draining one other of them dry as he needed blood.

He knew he needed to act quickly, before those he had saved perished as they had more mouths to feed back on his ship, and then moved to hack open the ice as he could around his own ship, before thirst drove him to hunt and feed. The terror of being hunted by some unknown white clad assailant in the snow drove the men to redouble their efforts to free their craft, and their combined efforts managed to get them free. As Solomon watched them leave, the snow chafed at him.

From deep inside he knew, or maybe it was what he had consumed, which told him, they would bring reports of this icy graveyard back, being the only survivors to return. And more would eventually come, and more would die. It was just a matter of time. It was all for nothing... all that effort just like all that fighting... all for nothing. And when more came, he would probably need to feed on them too.

The cold didn't bother him anymore, but the curse of what he had become did. He decided, he would find a place not far from where he was, and sleep in the ice. Maybe one day, when he woke, the world would be a better, happier place. And if he never woke... maybe that too, would be for the best.

Remarks
Perhaps the above is just how Solomon remembers it, when in reality all the frozen (effectively dead) crew he had given blood to, he had instead fleshcrafted them into clawed flesh monsters. He then directed them to break the ice (which he probably could not have done on his own) and save the crew that he had come with. And after his own ship had departed, he slew all his creations and went to sleep. His consumption of the devil fruit did not save a single frozen marine, but it did save some of his own crew.
