An ape who shows maturity and intelligence level beyond the understandings of his human counterparts of the same age group. His intelligence was an effect of the drug, that he inherited from his mother. Raised at a Scientist house, he grew more and more intelligent but was a violent figure for the neighboring human beings. When he was locked at a private shelter, he came out of there as a leader. In The Rise of the Planet of the Apes Ceaser was born at a lab but raised by a human, his knowledge and intelligence would make him the leader of his Apes army who led them out of the captivity.

Background

Born in the San Francisco biotech company Gen-sys laboratories to a female chimpanzee Bright Eyes. In the laboratory his mother was fed with a drug called ALZ-112 to increase her mental capabilities, his mother died protecting him but the researchers thought it was after effect of the drug. Ceaser was then taken home by a Will Rodman. Ceaser, however, inherited the effects of ALZ-112 from his mother ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"Ia3P7kL7","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(\\uc0\\u8220{}Caesar (CE)\\uc0\\u8221{})","plainCitation":"(“Caesar (CE)”)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":65,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/KfR9yuY2/items/NMCZAFIL"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/KfR9yuY2/items/NMCZAFIL"],"itemData":{"id":65,"type":"webpage","title":"Caesar (CE)","container-title":"Planet of the Apes Wiki","abstract":"Caesar was the main protagonist of the Planet of the Apes reboot series.

Upon bringing him home, Will discovered that just at 2 days old Ceaser was drinking milk from a bottle on his own. At the age of two, he was completing puzzles designed for human children of eight years old. At the age of three, he was a perfect chess player. Much to Will's amazement, Ceaser continued to show cognitive abilities that far exceeded his human counterparts. After will started taking him out, Ceaser saw a dog on a leash and questioned his identity and after knowing the fact that her mother died in the laboratory he started resentment towards human beings.

Awakening

One day Ceaser saw a violent and hot-blooded neighbor harassing Will's father, Charles. This enraged Ceaser so much that he bites off his index finger. This incident led the court to order to give Ceaser into the captivity of San Bruno Private Shelter. At first, he was treated cruelly by the staff there and was also harassed by the alpha male chimpanzee known as rocket. Ceaser stole a knife from one of the staff members and later used that to free himself. After freeing himself he attacked rocket with a gasoline canister and proved himself to be the alpha male. Ceaser emphasized on the unity of Apes and told his fellow apes to unite. One night he ran away from the compound and returned to will’s house to steal a more advanced version of ALZ-112 named as ALZ-113 ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"SqsWodFg","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(\\uc0\\u8220{}Caesar (CE)\\uc0\\u8221{})","plainCitation":"(“Caesar (CE)”)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":65,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/KfR9yuY2/items/NMCZAFIL"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/KfR9yuY2/items/NMCZAFIL"],"itemData":{"id":65,"type":"webpage","title":"Caesar (CE)","container-title":"Planet of the Apes Wiki","abstract":"Caesar was the main protagonist of the Planet of the Apes reboot series.

He exposed himself and other fellow apes to the medicine in order to gain more intelligence. One of the defining moments of Ceaser's character came when Before the freedom Ceaser shouted "No" for the first time out loud when he was asked to go back to his cage.

Rebellion

Ceaser after his freedom, freed all the apse from San-Francesco zoo and Gen-sys Lab, he then led this army of apes across the golden gate bridge terrorizing the citizens while they were moving to the redwood forest. The height of his intelligence came at a point when the police tried to block his way. Ceaser split his forces into three groups, one would climb over the suspension bridge, the second underneath the bridge while the third marched straight towards them. Ceaser then called the gorillas to use a bus as a shield from police's gunfire and ordered the rest of the groups to attack from the sides. This intelligence of his overwhelmed the police and they ran off. After defeating the police, he led the army of the Apes to the forest. After Will witnessed the accident he followed the apes to the forest and immediately was attacked by other apes but Ceaser arrived and ordered his fellow apes to stop. Will pleaded him to come back home as forces will come to haunt them. But Will got a shock when Ceaser replied, "Ceaser is home".
