I like the idea that Salem is an extremely old Grimm. Oobleck mentioned that not all Grimm are "still mindless". Is it possible that a Grimm could grow so old that it became sentient? I've also heard theories that Grimm feed on Aura, which is why they only target Humans and Faunus; and further theories that they could eventually utilize the Aura they consume (which I find doubtful, but entirely impossible); this led to the theory that Cinder was such a Grimm, which I thought was on crack, but it's actually quite a plausible theory for Salem.
