Backstory: Born on the outskirts of Driftveil, Salem started his life as a small Zorua, his parents unknown, and roaming aimlessly, superstitions about his species were common around Unova, especially on Driftveil, and absolutely no one helped him, until a pair of Psychic-type Pokémon appeared, seeing the weak Zorua, they adopted him as their son. Salem's life went a bit better, his parents were always caring, understanding and not blinded by superstitions, his life with them was filled with joy, but we can't say that about him in school… In school, no one wanted to be his friend, or to trust him, no matter how hard he tried, everyone was thinking that he tricked or lied, he just passed school with pure determination and the support that his adoptive parents offered. Talking about them, they were powerful psychics and psychologists, and Salem, illusioned with their powers, always tries to imitate them, they even somehow teach him some telekinesis and mind reading abilities, always saying to him that “he needs to use them for good” and he was ok with it. Years later, Salem got accepted on a University, in the camp of Psychology, the subject interested him, to understand why others feared him, and to maybe, one day, make them understand he was a good guy… That day never happened. When he graduated, he went happily to where he lived,wanting to show his parents how far he went, to make them proud of the Zorua he was, until he saw his house in ruins. He rushed to his home,wanting to see if his parents were safe, until he found them dead surrounded by the other villagers who claimed to have killed them for raising a “monster”, something inside him snapped. The frustration, the anger, his rage…all of this made him evolve into a Zoroark, they wanted a monster? Well, now they have a monster, He erupted in range, and soon everyone’s vision faded to black. Salem showed them illusions of their worst fears, intensifying his power for these illusions to almost become real entities, and one after another, fell down in terror, in a chilling silence, Salem took His parents’ bodies and buried them, wishing them for a good afterlife. He did it, he defeated them, made them pay, he used his powers for “good” in his mind, but still felt alone, and fled the place, he became an outcast, a criminal, what the others always said he was, and if the world is against him, he will show them what true terror is.
