==General Info==
 
==General Info==
Jack Salem has been a member of the [[Hidden Walk]] for over a decade, and to say that he has a checkered past is something of an understatement. The rumor is that he used to be a Ronin and an Ahroun, and though he's with the Glass Walkers now, his Shadow Lord heritage is painfully obvious to any Garou who looks at him. He's been [[Satire Rite|Satired]] at least once in his life (though it happened away from St. Claire), and once was punished under [[Voice Of The Jackal]]. He is a known [[Charach]], though that news is now very many years old and the Judgement for it happened at [[Hundred Stars|another Sept]].

He is well-known to be a hellishly effective fighter, but his frenzies can be fatal; more than one Garou has died when Salem is under the grip of his [[Rage]].

He is unapologetically urrah, though for a Glass Walker seems far more interested in old technology than new. He almost single-handedly turned an abandoned five-story wreck into a liveable space which is currently used by the Glass Walkers and other members of the Sept. He's been a repo man in the past and seems to have a knack for maintaining and repairing old cars. He's been knocking around St. Claire a good long time and knows it better than most. His knowledge of Sept history is quite profound.

Also, his knowledge of Sept history is profound.
   
Perhaps the most unusual thing about him is his age. Born in 1973, Salem was in his late thirties until only a few years ago, when a month's disappearance caused him to age another thirty years or so (as well as gain a massive collection of new battlescars). Only a few people, those very close to him, have an inkling as to what happened to him; he's not been forthcoming about the experience. Since coming back, Salem spends most of his time in the city's slums, among the homeless, who know him as "Jack", "Scar", or "that scary 'Nam vet". He also spends a good deal of time prowling about Harbor Park.

Perhaps the most unusual thing about him is his age. Born in 1973, Salem was in his middle-thirties when, in 2010, he disappeared without a trace. When he returned a month later, he was thirty years older and had collected a vast number of new battlescars, many of them years old. He was very closed-mouthed about it, sharing only brief information about what he'd experienced, and that only to his packmates in The Crew and a few other close friends. He'd lived those years, as he once told [[Kevin Lockwood|Kevin]] angrily, but more than that he wouldn't say.
   
  +
He vanished again for a while in 2015, choosing to accompany [[Kavi Bhaskar]] on a task that would prove the other's worth to [[Stag]]. When he returned, he was alone and had been de-aged to thirteen years old. Salem is displeased with this new development and blames the Fae, though he claims to have little to no memory of what happened to him and Kavi on their ill-fated trip.
Although [[The Crew]] has disbanded, Salem keeps up a good relationship with Nine-Lives, the rat-spirit who acted as the pack's totem, and still venerates Rat and Rat's kin.
 
   
  +
And now he's no longer scarred. At all. Some Garou may look askance at this, but in regards to the human world, he's less recognizable and no longer looks like an emergency case for Child Protective Services.
At the February 2012 Moot, Salem announced that he was forming a new city pack, possibly under Chimera, and then later challenged Owen for Master of the Challenge. After a rather heated exchange, Owen relinquished the position.
 
   
  +
A friend asked him recently if he plans to do anything new or different with his new life and the new time he has. It was a good question, but in truth he's not sure he's got an answer to that yet.
In May 2012, along with [[Whisper]] and [[Wrong Way]], he successfully Quested for the totem [[Chimera]], forming the pack [[Sagacity]] with himself as Alpha. The pack still has yet to claim official territory, though Salem himself can often be found around the wharf, the city's southwest slums, Harbor Park, and of course the Glass Walker tenement. He patrols these areas often, usually in the Umbra.
 
   
Though nominally in charge while [[Mouse]] was off on her Athro challenge, Salem was often quite withdrawn, letting [[Kavi_Bhaskar|Kavi]] handle most of the day-to-day drama in the tribe, with [[Nieve_Martinez|Nieve's]] help.
 
 
==Appearance==
 
Salem's in his sixties (getting close to his seventies) and these days resembles a broken-down 'Nam vet. He wears his hair long and his beard full, and his clothing's typically pretty roughed-up. He's got numerous scars, facial and otherwise, and in lupine forms, is missing a good portion of his pelt to scar tissue and other old wounds. Also, he limps, favoring his right leg. Yet he does not appear infirm -- quite the opposite. The aura of rigidly-controlled violence is as strong as it ever was, enough to make most humans wary of him.
 
 
==Demeanor==
 
Salem tends to come across as surly, aloof, cynical, or world-weary, though he's usually polite when not riled (and sometimes even then). He has a dry sense of humor and is the kind of man more apt to chuckle than laugh aloud. He doesn't open himself up often, and then typically only to packmates or close friends; few are allowed past the man's considerable emotional armor.

General Info[]

Jack Salem has been a member of the Sept for about a decade and a half, and to say that he has a checkered past is something of an understatement. The rumor is that he used to be a Ronin and an Ahroun, and though he's with the Glass Walkers now, his Shadow Lord heritage is painfully obvious to any Garou who looks at him. He's been Satired at least once in his life (though it happened away from St. Claire), and once was punished under Voice Of The Jackal. He is a known Charach, though that news is now very many years old and the Judgement for it happened at another Sept.

He is well-known to be a hellishly effective fighter whose frenzies can be fatal; more than one Garou has died when Salem is under the grip of his Rage.

He is unapologetically urrah, though for a Glass Walker sometimes seems more interested in old technology than new. He almost single-handedly turned an abandoned five-story wreck into a liveable space which is currently used by the Glass Walkers and other members of the Sept. He's been a repo man in the past and seems to have a knack for maintaining and repairing old cars. He's been knocking around St. Claire a good long time and knows it better than most. Also, his knowledge of Sept history is profound.

Perhaps the most unusual thing about him is his age. Born in 1973, Salem was in his middle-thirties when, in 2010, he disappeared without a trace. When he returned a month later, he was thirty years older and had collected a vast number of new battlescars, many of them years old. He was very closed-mouthed about it, sharing only brief information about what he'd experienced, and that only to his packmates in The Crew and a few other close friends. He'd lived those years, as he once told Kevin angrily, but more than that he wouldn't say.

He vanished again for a while in 2015, choosing to accompany Kavi Bhaskar on a task that would prove the other's worth to Stag. When he returned, he was alone and had been de-aged to thirteen years old. Salem is displeased with this new development and blames the Fae, though he claims to have little to no memory of what happened to him and Kavi on their ill-fated trip.

And now he's no longer scarred. At all. Some Garou may look askance at this, but in regards to the human world, he's less recognizable and no longer looks like an emergency case for Child Protective Services.

A friend asked him recently if he plans to do anything new or different with his new life and the new time he has. It was a good question, but in truth he's not sure he's got an answer to that yet.
