Trivia

 * Salem and Vesryn have the highest Charisma scores of all player characters of the second campaign.
 * Salem is the youngest member of the Motley Misfits, excluding Ori.
 * Salem has a fondness for apple pie and apple cider.
 * The village of Salem is famous for its witch trials between February 1692 and May 1693. The term warlock is often used as the male equivalent of witch (which can be male or female, but is used predominantly for females).
 * The surname Vatras is derived from the Bosnian word Vatra, meaning fire. Tieflings are linked to demons and devils, who typically reside in the planes of hell and are thus linked to fire.
 * Celestial Warden is a homebrew invocation. In-game it was presented as a gift from Salem's patron because he is extremely opposed to killing anyone.
 * Salem is the first player character of the second campaign to die. He is also the first player character of the second campaign to be resurrected.
 * With his second death, mere days after his first resurrection, Salem is also the first player character of the second campaign to have died twice, and to have been resurrected twice.
