Physical Description
Personality
History Salem can't recall what his family was like as a child. He can't remember the deep bass of his father's voice or the smell of his mother's perfume. He can't recall if he was an only child or if he had siblings that held and adored him. The only thing he does remember of them is their absence from his life and his lack of a true home. What Salem can remember are the bustling streets of New Morilanta and the group of urchins and pickpockets that banded together to survive. They called themselves the Orphan's Guild, a silly name thought up by kids looking for a place to call home. From what the older children told him they had found him mewling like a kitten on the side of the road with a massive wound on the side of his cheek. They took the child into their group and together raised him with whatever other children they could find, as well as children can raise children. In his youth Salem went without a proper name until he was a young man. Instead, the other children called him Scar because of the mysterious wound he had when they found him.
Salem learned a startling amount from the other children, mostly how to survive on the harsh New Morilanta streets. He learned that coin and power bought food, respect, and most importantly safety. The fastest way to earn coin was to take it by whatever means were necessary. For Salem and the rest of the guild it meant turning to petty larceny and theft. They were no Thieves' Guild, but the children all had a knack for it. They had to. In New Morilanta urchins and pickpockets who got caught were usually sold into slavery. Any member who didn't have a knack for the more unscrupulous arts often got picked up in a matter of weeks.
