Saleme was a huntress and assassin from Harad who served Sauron in the War of the Ring. She led an attack on the Rohan settlement of Upbourn, where her men assassinated the town's captain, Wulfhelm.
Saleme was not invented by J.R.R. Tolkien; she was created for Liquid Entertainment's 2003 game War of the Ring.
Game notes[]
- Her first appearance in War of the Ring is in the level "A Hidden Plan", in the Evil Campaign.
- Saleme's character has three special abilities: Poison Trap, Blood Mark, and Serpent Blades. Poison Trap lets Saleme set a trap on the ground that unleashes poison when an enemy comes close enough to it. Blood Mark allows Saleme to heal units over time; this power can also be attached to a war post to slowly heal any units around it for a short time. Saleme's Serpent Blades ability allows her to throw her swords at a targeted enemy and then ricochet and hit other enemies nearby damaging multiple enemy units.
- She was voiced by Mary Elizabeth McGlynn.
