Salvador was the first character unveiled for Borderlands 2 and his class is the Gunzerker. His main ability, when activated, grants him the ability to dual wield (also called gunzerking) any two weapons in his inventory.
He was born and raised on Pandora, which is different than the vault hunters in the previous game. He has a love for blowing people and things up, money, and loot.
