- - - - loathes: politics, criminals, the government officials (especially the snobby ones), his parents, and selfish individuals.
- - - - strengths: As a detective, Salem excels in crime scene investigations, research, interrogations, manipulating suspects, the whole shebang, and he’s not bad with a handgun either.
- - - - weaknesses: talking about his parents, guilt over lives he couldn't save. One of Salem's weaknesses is when his superiors pull rank on him. He's loyal to the code, so he will (reluctantly) stand at attention if someone reminds him of his place. (This mostly happens when he thinks a superior is making a stupid move, and he won't hesitate to voice his opinion)
- - - - dreams: bring justice to whatever evil corner of the earth he can find.
- - - - fears: failing a mission, losing a partner, being unable to save a life when it's in his hands, facing his parents (but he won't tell anyone that), and losing his job.
- - - - overall personality: Salem likes to be the comedian of the group, always cracking jokes and making a few wiseass comments, even during an investigation, but underneath all that humor, he's as serious as anyone else is. When things get real bad, such as the risk of lives, he puts all joking aside and becomes Detective Mathers. He tends to be careful when handling a life or death situation, no matter whose life is in danger, even if it's a criminal. He thinks the only punishment for crime is imprisonment, not death.

- - - - overall history: Salem's father is a well known drug dealer, a fact he tries to ignore. Samuel Mathers was, however, recently caught and put in prison, after many years of eluding arrest and selling drugs. It's all over the news, and people make an immediate connection once they hear Salem's surname. His mother wasn't any better than her husband, encouraging him in the drug-selling business and actually using the drugs for her own pleasure. Salem was and still is ashamed of his parents. When he was finished with school, he immediately signed up for the police force, knowing that he could stop crimes like his father's from getting any worse. Salem's been in the police force for nearly ten years, dedicated to saving the people and stopping crime. He's seen many things in his line of work as a detective, from brutal murder, body mutilation, and even rape. But he's gotten used to such things by now. He won't let a sick stomach get in the way of his work.
- - - - motivation: to bring justice to the world.
- - - - other: Salem likes to accompany officers on their missions, and when on his own investigations, he prefers to have someone tag along. He may be capable of handling some situations, but you never know when you need someone to back you up.
