Doctor Salamedes is a masked, cybernetic physician who appears to be talented in multiple fields. Currently they are dabbling in helping the Sleeves through the venue of a mercenary organization of Zeonic Remnants known as Crescent, but their primary activities for the past twenty-or-so years have been focused on Mars. Most recently, it has been aiding the Martian Zeonic Remnants in terraforming and by developing new Mobile Suits and weapons, and sprinkling in other test materials in order to observe performance 'in the wilds'. However, other governmental and military organizations have benefited from Salamedes' research, including those who are direct rivals with each other.

Background

• 0081: First mention of the name "Salamedes" as they arrive on Mars.
• 0082: Salamedes completes a survey of Mars and begins working on terraforming technologies.
• 0088: Doctor Salamedes completes their treatise on safe cybernetic implantation and how to prevent rejection without inhibiting normal body functions in a paper called, "Human Augmentation Devices and Medical Bio-Systems" which becomes available to the Federation.
• 0095: Salamedes contacts Tsugumi Saionji and invites her to Mars.
• 0095.5.8: Salamedes seen by Mars Zeonic Remnants in the company of Puru Ten.
• 0095.5.10: Salamedes and Puru Ten begin physical therapy in a Mars-based facility that has recently been completed.
• 0095.5.14: Salamedes leaves Mars for parts unknown.
• 0095.6.2: Doctor Salamedes returns to Mars. A second child starts being seen around the facility.
• 0095.6.20: A Neo-Zeon remnant facility in the Asteroid Belt goes dark.
• 0095.7.13: First sighting of The Twins in Salamedes' company.
• 0095.9.10-20: Additional children keep arriving at the Mars Zeonic Remnants facility. Federation forces discover Base #1772 "Revival", a Neo-Zeon remnant. Extreme violence has been visited upon the personnel, with no sign of survivors, and the equipment and records have been damaged or destroyed beyond repair. Analysis suggests a Cyber Newtype lab.
• 0095.10:30-0096.4.26: ECOAS finds more research facilities and military bases with similar scenes of slaughter. Destroyed research, no survivors, and damaged equipment. A single security camera captures 7 seconds of footage of a single hallway. The footage is placed under seal and labeled Top Secret under pressure by the Vist Foundation. The recording is labeled "Incident 7:7", but is known by the ECOAS forces who discovered it and a few intelligence analysts as "The Seven Seconds".

Awakening Interactions

Salamedes has different interactions with different levels of Awakening that can be used for RP Hooks or flavor. They are optional and are not forced upon anyone. In particular, both Salamedes and other Newtypes capable of concealing their presence may not be able to sense each other while doing so.

• Awakening 0-1: Little or no difference is perceived between Salamedes and anyone else, aside their uncanny physical appearance. Perhaps a little unnerving due to how inhuman they can seem. Can interact casually with people in this range the most easily.
• Awakening 2: Visual and/or auditory hallucinations may occur on first encounter, and Salamedes is likely to produce a poor first impression regardless. Anxiety levels tend to be high around them, and an aggressive response is not unwarranted.
• Awakening 3: Something is definitely wrong with Salamedes. The space they occupy and pass through feels "tainted" somehow. They are a persistent cold spot in any room they enter, and auditory and/or visual hallucinations are likely. A positive first impression is extremely unlikely. Flickers of past events or stray thoughts may transpose themselves in an especially receptive individual.
• Awakening 4 - 5: Something wicked this way comes. Salamedes is a grating, nerve-wracking, obviously antagonistic force that disturbs the world around them, polluting others nearby with the "static" that accompanies their thoughts and feelings. Sensory hallucinations are virtually guaranteed, and the Newtype and Salamedes may resonate with each other in the worst possible way. They are just as vulnerable to hostile thoughts and emotions from other Newtypes of this level as they are to them. Even if neither side affects the other mentally or emotionally, getting a solid impression of each other in the form of a symbolic vision is likely.
