If Ozpin is the old wizard, then her personal history with him would also make sense. My problem with Salem being a Maiden is that we were told Maidens pass down their powers when they die. You think the Brotherhood would have noticed that there were never any new Winter Maidens.

Unless Salem is some kind of undead. "Ash vs Evil Dead" style.
