Biography
Events of Dying Light
She is a survivor residing within The Tower, along with her husband, Dawud. She and her husband have a distant relationship, and his only focus is their son, Sammy.
Salma is one of the first residents of the Tower to speak to Kyle Crane. Unlike the other Tower residents, who are initially cold to Kyle due to his rescue resulting in the death of Amir Ghoreyshi, Salma attempts to be helpful to Crane and explains to him what is going on. She mentions that she is the Tower's 18th infected person, with Crane being the 31st.
During the side-quest Gunslinger, Dawud takes their son Sammy and leaves the Tower by force using a gun Crane provides to him, unaware of Dawud's plan. Salma explains that Dawud wished to take Sammy and find a safer place to live against Salma's wishes, and that the two of them had been fighting about it for weeks. She explains that she and her husband have been estranged for a long time. A note found in Dawud's pawn shop indicates she may have been the victim of domestic violence. A regretful Crane vows to find Dawud and return Sammy to his mother.
In Old Town, Dawud fails to find a safer place to live, and ends up bitten by a zombie. He manages to hide his son in a closet and sends out a distress call before turning. Crane receives the call, kills the zombified Dawud, and rescues Sammy. With her son returned to her, Salma remembers her husband as a flawed, but good intentioned man, and notes that he loved his son and died protecting him.
