Salt Baecon

**Debut** | TBA

**Salt Baecon** is the Simplicitrix/Stabilized Simplicitrix's DNA sample of a Culina Sequuntur Somnia from the planet Infernum Culina.

## Appearance

Salt Baecon is a stocky, pudgy pig-like alien with strangely shaped ears that point upwards out of the top of his head, his inner-ears exposed on the sides of his head, squinted eyes that appear to be on his ears, and a prominent chin. Salt Baecon wears a red apron, with long arms having dark gray spots down his shoulders and biceps, and long sharp digits, his index fingers the longest, short legs that bend backwards and end in cloven hooves, and a small, curly tail.

Salt Baecon wears the Simplicitrix symbol on the middle of his back where his apron is tied together.

## Personality

Salt Baecon is a short-fused, hotheaded food critic with a perfectionist attitude and a creative vocabulary when it comes to dishing out profanities and insults.

## Powers

* Salt Baecon can generate salt from his sweat glands, whenever through his actual sweat or just salt itself, where he can manipulate it with great precision. Through flexing his muscles in certain ways, Salt Baecon can discharge high-pressure blasts of salt particles from his body that can blind opponents.
	+ Salt Baecon can manipulate pre-existing salts and anything that contain them, such as saltwater and sodium-high foods.
	+ Salt Baecon can extract the moisture of anything his salt becomes coated in, which can induce dryness, thirst, and even death.
	+ Salt Baecon can drastically increase someone's pain by inserting his salt into any of their open wounds or injuries.
* Salt Baecon has enhanced strength, durability, speed, and senses, specifically hearing and smell.
* Salt Baecon is a masterful chef, with vast intelligence, knowledge, and skills when it comes to culinary arts and different kinds of cooking.
* Salt Baecon can coat himself in salt to protect himself from moisture-based attacks, such as water and ice.

## Weaknesses

* Salt Baecon's short temper and usage of profanity can accidentally set others off and trigger fights between them.
* Salt Baecon's salt blasts through muscle flexes can be restricted by those with muscle manipulation, such as Digitorum and Contorophis Muscurus.
* Salt Baecon's pain amplification ability can backfire if he has open wounds himself, although only if he uses his powers too much at once.
* While his abilities can still affect salt while in a molten state, Salt Baecon can accidentally severely burn himself or others with it.

## Etymology

* Salt Baecon's name is a play on "Salt Bae," the Internet-given nickname of a Turkish butcher who became an Internet meme back in 2017, and "bacon."
* Salt Baecon's species name is the Latin translation of "Kitchen Nightmares," one of Gordon Ramsay's TV shows.
* Salt Baecon's planet name is the Latin translation of "Hell's Kitchen," another one of Gordon Ramsay's TV shows.
