Biography
Zasalamel, is a character in the Soul series of fighting games, a man with no allegiances except to himself, though his actions may reasonably be defined as evil. Zasalamel is one of the three starting new characters included in the fourth installment of the saga of video games, Soulcalibur III, alongside Tira and Setsuka. He first appeared on the first promotional trailers of the game as a darkened silhouette, under the titles of both The Enigma and The Mastermind before his real name was revealed.

Soul Caliber was the first fighting game I played when I was a teenager in the 80’s. I liked it because the fighters used weapons. When I got my Dreamcast in 2001 Soul Caliber was one of my first games and I love it! When I learned about Zasalamel by reading this page I was very surprised. I’m 52 now and don’t have the reflexes I had when I was 31 to play this game. Even playing Shenmue during the fighting sequences is hard. Thanks for the information – ten years later 😅!
