Salem

"...... The Lopto order does not tolerate traitors. That's the rule..."

- Salem

Salem was a member of the Loputo Church, but he left after questioning their actions. While running away from it, he was nearly killed. Pahn found him and helped him recover from his wounds. Because of that, Salem is devoted to him. He's met in the game as an enemy, and Leaf and his friends have to capture him in order to have him in the party.

He was the first playable dark magic user in Fire Emblem series.

In-Game
Salem may not come with the greatest stats or stat growths, but he is unique among all the characters that you run across due to the fact he can use dark magic. He also can use staves and Anima Magic so he brings uniqueness and versatility to those who use him. Also, he has the potential to capture due to his build growth, so that's another plus.

Salem - The Dark Magician :

After the war, Salem retired to a small rural village and began writing memoirs of his life. His documents proved to be valuable resources for future historians to understand what the Lopto Church was really like.
