David (Salem)

David was an American young boy living in Salem during the 17th century. In 1692, during the Salem witch trials, the young mute was imprisoned in an underground dungeon along with other people suspected of witchcraft and befriended Dorothy Osborne.

Along with Dorothy, he was rescued by the two Assassins Tom Stoddard and Jennifer Querry, but was later abandonned by them because their priority was to prevent Dorothy and her mysterious abilities to fall into the hands of the Templars. Due to Querry resolve not to abandon the boy in the swamp, Stoddard told David to hide and later go to Ipswich, to his contact there for protection. Querry disagred with Stoddard but exhausted and unable to carry him anymore, she was forced to abandon David as the Puritans mob sent after them by the Templars caught up with the Assassins and injuried her with a pistol shot.
