Mr. Salem MR. SALEM At one time, centuries ago, the marshlands held a great deal of promise. One family swooped in and purchased the entire area that became Salems Marsh. But ignorance and cruelty changed the atmosphere of the land. It began with the burning of the witches. They were innocents, condemned by the lies of others and unfairly tried and burned at the stake. A century later the Salems built the Insane Asylum. More cruelty, attrocities, and many deaths happened there. All of this pain, suffering, and madness leaked into the soil. Something deep under the swamp was feeding off all of it. And yet the Salems maintained dominion over the swamp and everyone who had the misfortune to come into it. Mr. Salem was a corrupt businessman. He was brutal in his dealings with anyone wanting to open a business in the town of Salems Marsh. They would never own it and it would be operated under Mr. Salems rules. Anything you needed would come from his stores, at his prices. The longer you stayed in Salems Marsh, the more money you owed to Mr. Salem. You could not leave unless you paid in full. So you say "run away" - if it were easy then they all would leave. The swamp is deadly and transportation is essential. Of course, all transportation was supplied only by Mr. Salem. Anyone attempting to stand up to Mr. Salem did so at their own risk - and life. Mr. Salem was an evil man overseeing the swamp of the damned. Return and choose another character.
