Saltman

Saltman's History

About 5,000 years ago, when he and his tribe were crossing the desert, they were invaded by nomads. With no choice but to flee, he entered a nearby cave when he suddenly fell into a salt mine and died as a result of collision with the mine floor. After separating from his body, his soul could not cross the salt walls and got stuck in the mine. while the salt mine also prevented his body from decomposing and gradually turned into a mummy. His soul was forced to return to his mummified body after centuries of trying to escape. This did not help him either, because the walls of the mine were so high that he could not get out and his body needed food. So out of desperation, he began to eat the salt walls of the cave and that would cause him to die again. This cycle lasted for several thousand years, gradually turning his body into salt, and eventually his body took on the form of salt crystals. Now that his whole body had turned to salt, his soul could no longer leave his body, and he had become an immortal being. Staying in the mine gave him another special ability. He was able to break down salt crystals into their constituents. He did not know these elements but realized that they were less hard than salt so he started to decompose the mine so that he could destroy the walls with his salty body and get out of it. After years of trying, he managed to find a way out of the cave.

It was after leaving the cave that he realized the capabilities of his body. His salty body was able to absorb the water of a large lake and after absorbing water, his ability to break down molecules multiplied. His body was resistant to fire and high temperatures. He learned the properties of the constituents of salt and realized that he could use one of them (sodium) and its combination with water to blow up obstacles and the other (chlorine gas) to quickly eliminate large numbers of enemies.
