Ptolemaios

Ptolemaios is an unused boss from Metal Slug 5, and a playable unit in Metal Slug Attack. He is the commander-in-chief of the Ptolemaic Army.

Ptolemaios is extremely secretive, as only a few Masked Soldiers and Mira seem to be aware of where he is. In the standard Ptolemaic Army, no one, not even the top commanders, know where he is located. He gives orders to its military through messengers and rarely appears on the battlefield. He also believes that everything is pre-ordained and that it cannot be disrupted, as doing so will cause dire consequences.

Ptolemaios has an extremely negative chemistry with the Red Goblin Society and single-handedly destroyed the group. With the society's leader, renamed Red Goblin, as the sole survivor, Ptolemaios commands his army to search and eliminate the leader.

Every time Ptolemaios dies he revives himself with higher strength. He tends to swallow stones whole to gain powers. In an alternative timeline, Ptolemaios is powerful enough to be considered unstoppable as he is able to lower the morale of an entire army. It is later revealed that Mira is his daughter from the future, though his wife has yet to make an appearance.
