Sal’s most prominent feature is his prosthetic face mask, which is primarily white with a light pink patch over the right eye. He has blue eyes, the right one being an ocular prosthesis. From what has been seen of his face: he has a large scar that runs diagonally across the right side of his mouth, splitting his lips and exposing his teeth; a scar on his left cheek, as well as several other smaller scars scattered across the rest of his face; a dent on the right side of his lower jaw; and the cartilage of his nose is completely missing. He has shoulder length bright blue hair which he usually keeps tied up in pigtails and two piercings in each ear. He is noticeably short, being the second shortest among his friend group. As a teenager, Sal wears a black sweater, ripped red jeans, and blue and white sneakers. In the winter, he wears a black hoodie, a pair of blue fingerless gloves, and green earmuffs while out in the snow.

Sal is an adventurous teenage boy. He seems to be resourceful and has the ability to keep his cool during stressful situations, as seen through his interactions with ghosts. He comes off as friendly and polite regardless of rude or frightened responses he may get from people who are reacting to his prosthetic and is openly affectionate of his friends. Sal frequently offers a listening ear or kind words to others, even to those who have been unfriendly to him. His compassion and willingness to help people regardless of their appearance or standoffish behavior is demonstrated time and again. Though he is a kind person, Sal is capable of snapping back at those who try to hurt him through the use of sarcasm. He does not correct comments made towards him out of ignorance rather than malice (such as when others misgenders him), suggesting that he doesn't like confrontation. He also doesn't seem to approve of violence. Whilst Sal is male, he doesn't seem to care how people perceive him, or about traditional gender roles, as evidenced by his traditionally feminine hairstyle, and how he doesn't bother to correct others when they refer to Sal as a girl upon meeting him. In addition, upon meeting Megan for the first time, she told him, "Pigtails are for girls, silly!" to which he responded that nobody ever said only girls could wear their hair in pigtails and that he liked the style, too.

On August 16th 1984, the Fisher family went on a picnic to a scenic and sunny location, where a young Sal hears a barking dog and is eager to pet it. After some prodding, his mother allows Sal to visit the animal. However, it's revealed that the "dog" was, in fact, a man wearing a dog mask and wielding a shotgun. The boy survived the encounter but at the cost of his mother's life and the right side of his face. For the years to come, Sal would maintain that his mother was killed by a man, not a wild animal, even if his psychiatrist and father didn't believe him. After a fateful visit to the hospital, Sal had to adapt to a new life with his prosthetic face and internalized the nickname bullies would later give him: Sally Face.

Wanting a brand-new fresh start, the two remaining members of the Fisher family leave New Jersey and move into the mysterious abode of Addison Apartment, Room 402 in Nockfell County and the year 1992. Halfway through unpacking, Sal decided to take a break, and, after sharing his feelings about the move to his father, left to explore the complex. After meeting the lovely Lisa Johnson, Sal is introduced to Lisa's heavy metal loving son Larry Johnson, who quickly became friends with the newcomer. After Larry confided within Sal the details of Mrs. Sanderson's murder at the hands of Charley Mansfield, the boy is quick to offer his assistance. After devising a plan of action and receiving a walkie-talkie from Larry, Sal returns to his room to await his friend's signal. After the officers are pulled away by a fake report of a robbery, Sal enters Room 403 and witnesses the carnage committed by Mansfield, the body outline of Sanderson, and an empty space between two Glitter Ponies. Upon returning to Larry, they decided that they had to retrieve the stolen Glitter Pony from Charley and turn it into the authorities. A quick visit to Charley's room made it clear to Sal that the collector wouldn't let him anywhere near his toys, so he had to find another way. When visiting the fifth floor, Sal finds old laxatives in the bathroom of Room 504 and the ghost of the young Megan Holmes, but the supernatural being is too scared to speak to Sal for long. Regardless, Sal continued with his plan. After adding the laxatives to a cup of Addison Tea, Sal managed to get Charley to abandon his watch over his beloved collection to attend to more pressing concerns in the restroom. Sal snags the toy and turns it into the Detective on the first floor. Mansfield is arrested and hauled away.When Sal leaves the apartment to see Charley off, curiosity pulls him towards a coroner's van, where Mrs. Sanderson's decaying corpse lay, bagged, and awaiting processing.

A few months into Sal's stay at Addison Apartments, he began to become plagued by nightmares. One particular dream places him at the very same picnic where his mother was murdered, and later shifted into Larry's shoes when he was fixing the toilet for Mrs. Sanderson on the day of her demise. After being devoured by the toilet, Sal meets the Glitter Pony he used to incriminate Charley, malnourished and begging for water. When the plumbing is restored, the Glitter Pony becomes completely bloated, serving as a bridge for Sal to return to the "surface" to witness Mansfield murdering Sanderson. A trail of bloodied footprints leads to a seated Charley Mansfield, admonishing Sal for his actions. Sal is jolted from sleep when Charley's skin peels off to reveal a coal-black demon with red eyes. Sal confides the details of his most recent vision in Larry, who is skeptical of the whole thing. Despite this, Larry takes Sal to his tree house to tell him the story of his past. Sal immediately recognizes the Red-Eyed Demon from Larry's story (having seen it in the apartment's kitchen on his first day) and offers to help lift his "curse". After retrieving an enigmatic Puzzle Box from a trunk containing the possessions of Larry's father Jim Johnson, the two return indoors. After a failed attempt to summon Megan Holmes from the bathroom of room 504, Larry refers Sal to Todd Morrison, the resident brainiac, and believer in the unknown. Sal, eager to show Larry that spirits do exist, doesn't hesitate to pay Todd a visit. Upon entering Todd's apartment Room 202, Sal meets Ashley Campbell. Todd agrees to help Sal by modifying his Gear Boy to better detect supernatural activity. After cannibalizing Larry's radio antennae and Walkie Talkie, the device was ready for testing in Todd's restroom. It was here that they drew out the weeping ghost of Greg Montague who is quickly scared away by the Red-Eyed Demon. Todd recovers from the initial shock of the supernatural occurrences and advises Sal to test it further while he does some digging into the history of the murders in Addison Apartments. Sal's tests lead to the discovery of various levels of a mysterious game throughout the apartment complex and the Phantom of Jim Johnson. Sal doesn't share any of his discoveries with his friends. When Megan remained hidden, even with the improved tracking device, Sal returned to Todd and learned that the officers that arrested Charley were not registered in the police database and the Charley Mansfield that was arrested looked nothing like the one they knew. Additionally, old reports of Megan's corpse being found by Lake Wendigo shows pictures of the girl when she was still alive. Sal retrieves Megan's necklace from the same lost found that held the Super Gear Boy Cartridge, brings Larry back to Room 504, and uses the Super Gear Boy and cross necklace to successfully draw out Megan Holmes. After yet another brief interaction that revealed a friendship between Jim Johnson and Megan's father Luke Holmes, she is scared away by the demon, leaving an awestruck Larry and Sal behind. They both agreed that the apartment room warranted further investigation. Larry left Sal to retrieve a crowbar from David, a former drug addict, while he returned to care for his sick mother. A visit inside of David's Room 302 led Sal to the discovery of the missing piece to Jim Johnson's Puzzle Box. Before returning the crowbar to Larry, Sal solved the box to discover an odd Computer Chip inside. When the chip merges with Todd's computer, the Phantom gives Sal a garbled message about a "red ball". When the vision ends, Sal finds the chip has somehow been replaced by a Rubix cube, with neither Todd nor Larry having any memory of the item. Using the crowbar to break into Room 403, Sal conversed briefly with the spirit of the recently deceased Mrs. Sanderson, before she too was frightened away by the demon. Returning to Room 504, Sal was finally able to enter the bedroom and summon the ghost of Stacy Holmes, who says nothing before disappearing. Further in the bedroom, Sal found a hole in the wall leading to another room. Upon entering the hole, Sal summoned the hanging ghost of Luke Holmes. When Sal attempted to speak to him, the ghost shed its skin to reveal an agitated Red-Eyed Demon. Before the demon could do anything, it was removed with a special device created by Todd and used by an intervening Larry. When the threat had clearly passed, Sal comforted a grief-stricken Larry for the "abandonment" of his father.

Whilst his name is Sal, people frequently call him "Sally" or "Sally Face", names which Sal reclaimed from his former bullies. Sal has a cat named Gizmo. It is confirmed that Sal takes medication (which is seen in his room) for anxiety, depression, and migraines. Sal inherited his unnatural hair color from his father, since his mother was blonde. Sal plays electric guitar, as shown by the guitar and amp in his room. Sal's favorite types of music are rock and metal, though he likes a little bit of everything. Sal's best friend is Larry. His zodiac sign is Sagittarius. Considering this, his birthstone could either be topaz or blue zircon. It is heavily implied that Sal's facial disfigurement may have been caused by a dog attack, although in actuality, his face was mauled from the shotgun while his mother attempted to protect him. In Russian, Sal's nickname "Sally Face" is translated as "Salli-kromsali", which literally means "mangled Sally". Sal never takes off his mask in public since he doesn't like the idea of others seeing his face. He equates the feeling of his prosthesis being taken off in public to the feeling of your pants being removed in public. In addition, Sal enjoys the moments where he is able to unmask himself and eat his food in private without having to worry about other people looking at him. When eating, he unbuckles the bottom straps, without revealing anything. Sal's favorite fruit would be applesauce because it is easy for him to eat with his mask on. However, he doesn't specifically have any favorite foods as he has grown accustomed to eating whatever is convenient. Although, if he were to have a favorite then it would probably be pizza. Sal would have to remove his prosthetic in order to take ID photos. Sal is afraid to drink because addiction runs in his family and he doesn't want to be an alcoholic. Sal hates coffee. Sal is from Northern New Jersey. His accent wouldn’t be strong, only being noticeable in his pronunciation of certain words. He wears dresses to formal events and occasionally just for fun.
