Sokrates Nikon Artemisios or Sokrates is a prince of Apostolos, the second child of House Pelagios. Their Eidolon (at least during the Kingdom game) is Apole.
Personality
Wish
- The Kingdom will become a symbol of unity for the entire sector.
Issue
- They are secretly from the ruling family of Apostolos.
History and Involvement
During the Golden War, Sokrates fled Apostolos with knowledge of the superweapon, defecting from a project to build shield generators. They led the rebel ship the Callisto as part of the Kingdom.
After the war, they may have lived as a farmer on Torru for years. However, they eventually make their way to Slighter, where they slowly take over the Ethnologistical Committee for a More Prosperous Golden Branch and become the candidate of Integrity. They subsequently throw a coup of the Apostolosian Empire, and form the Golden Demarchy with themself as the Demarch.

Notes
- ↑ When Apostolosians were created in the COUNTER/Weight worldbuilding episode, their society's gender system was binary by default. The Apostolosian gender and pronoun system was invented and elaborated as play continued, and because of this after-the-fact retcon, Apostolosian characters during COUNTER/Weight are often referred to with binary pronouns. In later seasons, Apostolosians are more consistently referred to with "they" pronouns (unless they specifically choose to use others), and it has become standard practice both by cast and fandom to apply these pronouns to COUNTER/Weight-era Apostolosians as well, even if those pronouns weren't consistently used at time of production.
