Son of Ares: Being the son of the God of War has it's perks, even if Salem doesn't realize it. Because of his innate ties to combat and destruction, Salem has an incredible aptitude for skills that fall into the aforementioned catagories. Martial art forms and styles come easily to Salem, picking them up quicker than your average joe.

SuperHuman Strength: All Olympians are superhumanly strong with the average male being able to lift about 30 tons and the average female being able to lift about 25 tons.
Superhuman Speed: All Olympians have the potential of being able to run and move at speeds much greater than the finest human athlete.

SuperHuman Durability: The bodies of all Olympians are considerably more resistant to physical injury than the bodies of humans. Olympians are capable of withstanding great impact forces, exposure to temperature and pressure extremes, falls from great heights, etc. without sustaining physical injury.

SuperHuman Stamina: The musculature of all Olympians produces considerably less fatigue toxins during physical activity than the muscles of human beings. The average Olympian male and female can exert themselves at peak capacity for about 24 hours before fatigue impairs them.

Superhumanly Dense Tissue: The skin, muscle, and bone tissues of all Olympians are about 3 times as dense as the same tissue of a human body. This contributes, somewhat, to their superhuman strength and weight.

Regenerative Healing Factor: Despite their natural durability, it is possible for any of the Olympians to sustain injury. However, if injured, their highly advanced metabolism enables them to recover with superhuman levels of speed and efficiency. As with most of their other powers, the speed and extent of these powers varies from one Olympian to another. Most Olympians, for instance, are not able to regenerate missing limbs or organs while a small minority can.

Longevity: Being only half Olympian, Salem ages at an extremely slowed rate instead of being immortal. If left unhindered, Salem will live around 250 years. Upon reaching 22 (Human Years), Salem will cease to age normally, his physical appearance peaking at someone in their mid 30's at the end of his lifespan.

Rage Plasma: Red Lanterns can vomit plasma, which has been described as napalm and acid mixed together; it burns away at anything. These flames burn even in space. The effect it has on living beings allows it to ignite the flames of rage in a victim's blood and has the effect of burning through energy aura's of an opponent, as well as corrupting other power rings, depleting them at an accelerated rate and greatly weakening the structures they create. This plasma is also one of the only substances in the universe that can destroy a Black Lantern corpse faster than it can regenerate itself.

Energy Projection: The ring can be used to fire blasts of Rage energy. This power is unique, as it takes the form of rage-energized blood. The ring can project this blood as a blast that has the effect of a concussive blast with high destructive capability. The weapons power is more an indication of the Rage of the user, rather then their willpower.

Energy Constructs: The ring can form constructs of Rage energy. The primary function of the Power Ring is to provide a weapon capable of transforming the wearer's thoughts into physical constructs through the wearer's rage. A Red Lantern can create any particular items or construct that they can imagine as long as they have the appropriate amount of rage necessary to will it into existence. The constructs are made out of red energy, which is a tangible form of pure rage, and they exist only as long as a Red Lantern is fueling it with their rage. Items created by the rings are not indestructible and are only as powerful as the rage of the Red Lantern creating them. The types of constructs usually reflects the ring wearer's personality.

Force-Field: The ring can create various forcefields of various sizes and shapes to protect the wearer and others around him or her. In space, a red ring creates a force-field around the wearer, protecting him/her/it from the hazards of the void, including filtration of stellar radiation and microscopic particulate matter which would ordinarily be fatal should the space debris strike the ring wielder at high speeds. An atmosphere appropriate to the ring wielder's biology is created inside the force-field, body temperature is maintained and waste products are removed. Gravitational stresses which could cause injury are stabilized for the ring wielder.

Universal Translator: The power ring can translate virtually any language in the universe, facilitating diplomatic encounters rather than violent confrontations.

Thought Relay: Otherwise known as a telepathic link.

Flight: By the manipulation of anti-gravitons and directed molecular movement, the ring allows the user to fly at incredible speeds.

Rage Infection: The Red Power Ring is capable of infecting others with the rage of the Red Lantern, which can lead to them being converted to the the Red Lantern Cause.

Rage Empowerment: The Red Lantern ring is unique in that its base of power, Rage, can be manipulated by the ring user. A Red Lantern can detect the rage in the heart of others and by connection the blood that pumps that blood. The rage and hatred of an individual red lantern empowers their abilities as well as the rage and hatred of others.

Life Support: A red power ring allows the host to survive a fatal removal of the user's heart, as they replace it.

Security Protocol: The rings can be programmed. They are coded to the wearer to make them unusable if stolen.

Weakness:

Life-Support Dependency: As the Red Power Ring assumes the functions of the heart, a Red Lantern cannot remove the ring without risking death.

Hope: the Blue light of hope is seemingly the only power that can extinguish the red flame, it can also reverse the effects of the ring and free them.

Love: As it is the opposite of Rage, the Red Power Ring's connection to the weilder will be severed and they will die, if they feel Love or made to feel it.

Recharge Protocol: Formerly, the Rings needed to be charged after a period of 24 hours, regardless of how often it was used.

Lack of speed: While Salem was lucky enough to gain full powers in most respects, he didn't inherit any super speed. He can still run as fast as any olympic track runners though.
