Ghost #1, Rex Salazar: César's 16yo baby brother. Earth's only superhero. He can build machines/weaponsout of his body and talk to machines, an EVO without human rights but with the Human Rights Campaign logo on his shirt. Snarky, hot-tempered, video-gaming closet weeb, deep seaexploration aficionado, ADHD poster child, is only cool when he's not trying, justice driven, full of heart, loves a good fight. His work at Providence being the only one capable of curing EVOs means he restored hope to the world.
Confident in his abilities but not when it comes to his brother. His amnesia means he had 2-3 months with César again. César didn't fully comprehend the gulf between them and start attempting to bridge it more until it was too late, and Rex was thrown 6 months into the future. Providence got new (awful, power-hungry) leadership, whom César worked under to secretly undermine her/them and save the world. Rex knows what César was doing now, but hasn't had time to process how much it all hurt. Also, Rex doesn't understand he's more alike to his brother than different.
He will need little compulsion to tell people about this once started. Try to tell him César's got a girlfriend; he won't believe you, especially because Magne's way cooler than his bro.
Ghost #2, Violeta Salazar (Mother): César will have a small and very private funeral for his parents somewhere in the Sept 1st-4th timeframe. Both of his parents were scientists, like him, and worked on the same Nanite Project until the Nanite Event stole them from the world. She's very proud of her sons, and Rex canonly takes after her, especially her fiery personality. To César, in his own words, she "meant safety, protection, caring" (partially flower language).
Sometime after both her sons' births, she returned to work. Raphael split the load so she could buck the Mexican and upper class Argentine traditions of becoming a housewife, and César pitched in heavily when Rex came much later as a "surprise baby". Raphael likely took off quite a bit of time as well. She's why César can cook. It's her and Raphael that instilled a deep sense of justice and right from wrong in both of their sons; the reasons César's a mad scientist raised right.
Also, she has something very important she needs you to tell César. (Which, be warned, is an important story beat I want to play out at least to that information is conveyed. It's going to affect César's motivations for the rest of the game.)
The Party: César will suffer from The World Revolving, because his world was left spinning after the ghostly visits. He will fall and/or cling to people for support with many apologies and aghast at how everyone else is being affected. Feel free to be VERY annoyed at him. Punch him at your own peril.
