Weaknesses and flaws: First and foremost, through no fault or signing of his own, Nicholas' soul was promised to Mephisto as a sacrifice. While hardly a sole focus, this puts him squarely in the midst of all sorts of potential problems with Mephisto, Blackheart and other powerful evil entities.
While he has mostly overcome Zarathos, he remains vulnerable as well to various black magical spells intended to bond and control or manipulate demons and he can be bound in magical circles, summoned by people performing the proper rituals, etc.
In the presence of powerful supernatural evil, he may also be compelled to transform into the Ghost Rider, whether he wishes to or not. While he has somewhat more control over this than many rookie Ghost Riders he still cannot always control the change, especially on nights of the full moon or times of mystical importance.
He cannot become the rider or use any of his powers when on hallowed ground.
While magic resistant for the most part, white magic has especially pronounced effects on the Rider, like most demonic entities, and a skilled user who has not tainted himself with use of any black magic can banish, ward off or otherwise affect the Rider with ease.

Backstory: Nicholas Salem was never intended to live long. Nicholas Scratch and diabolist Kaitlyn LaVey used ritual magic along with their coupling to ensure a child born on Halloween, promised from the same day to be sacrificed to Mephisto to resurrect and empower Salem's Seven. The plot was foiled by the Scarlet Witch and Doctor Strange, with some help from the Avengers, after Wanda was contacted by Agatha Harkness' spirit. He was put into the foster care system after that, given the name Salem in designation of where he was taken from, but kept the name his birth mother had given to him, in honor of his father. He has never known either of his parents.
He never did well in the foster system, as a troubled and willful child, particularly when he began to report hearing vague whispers when no one was about, as well as having some difficulties in the heavily Christian biased fostering system over the pentagram shaped scar on the palm of one hand from his mother's preparations for sacrifice. While never abused, he also never had a regular home, being shuffled about all his life until he was beyond the age when most children are adopted.
Between his scar, rumors of his background, and having lots of time on his hands and an otherwise inconsistent education he became a voracious reader, taking an interest in the occult whenever he was able to get his own books. The thing that really caught his attention, however, was Kerouac. He began to dream of the day he could just go his own way, free from the foster system, various odd homes and parents and all the rest. Through hard work and study he got his GED, and when he turned 18 he went to work at whatever he could get, saving and scrimping until he could afford his own motorcycle, then set out on the road, working where he could for gas money and living day to day, but free.
Until the most recent Halloween - eventually, when Mephisto needed a new agent, he sought out a soul that technically belonged to him, roaming the Earth, and Nicholas was bonded with Zarathos. However, not having signed anything of his own will, and being a strong willed individual in the first place, Nicholas battled Zarathos into near submission, and took his power for his own. This did not sit well with Mephisto, and rather than having another rogue rider, he banished Nicholas into a hell dimension.

How do you plan to introduce the character to the game?: The child of Darkstar is going to accidentally free Nicholas from his banishment.
