Campaign
Salzalon exists best in a campaign where the ultimate goal is the quest for Agartha, or one concerned with uncovering knowledge and secrets. A heavy-action, "fight the Secret Societies" campaign probably wouldn't be a good choice for the character without a party composed of numerous more martial-oriented heavy-hitters to help protect him.
