!! Third Chromosome/Ghetsis Harmonia
The leader of Section Three and the only Sacred Helix member to not wear a mask. He was the leader of Team Plasma in its affiliation with Polaris but it was folded into the main group after his failures in Unova.
Today, he is planning to overthrow the Sacred Helix and seize full control of Polaris for himself. To that end, he has jailed Concordia and Anthea and set them to work deciphering ancient texts the other Chromosomes do not yet know about. In addition, he has ordered the Shadow Triad to hunt down his son N and the Tenganist prophet, though for what ends is currently unknown. As part of the Sacred Helix, he is Polaris's spokesman, delivering their message of revolution to the people via his influential speeches.
