He hasn’t shaved in a couple of days. He’s good looking, but doesn’t go out of his way to look like a model.<br/><br/><strong>Hair:</strong>dirty blonde<br/><br/><strong>Skin:</strong>fair/pale<br/><br/><strong>Eyes:</strong>light blue<br/><br/><strong>Height:</strong>6’1”<br/><br/><strong>Weight:</strong>~165 Lbs<br/><br/><strong>Body Build:</strong>Slim and lean<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Samuel is opinionated, educated, and at times, condescending.

He achieved that, but because of malpractice, he lost his medical license. Now, he wants to stop the anti-virus vaccine for killing him and everyone/everything else.<br/><br/><strong>Outlook:</strong>Samuel is neither a straight pessimist nor an optimist. He would self-describe himself as a realist. He looks at every situation logically, but can certainly come across as a pessimist in certain situations.<br/><br/><strong>Sexuality:</strong>Heterosexual<br/><br/><strong>Interests/Hobbies:</strong>Science and medicine, obviously. Samuel also has a particular fondness for political music, like Rage Against the Machine. In his spare time, he likes to take apart old appliances, computers, or any sort of machine, and then try can put it back together again.<br/><br/><strong>Likes:</strong>Loud music, puzzles, intellectual challenges<br/><br/><strong>Dislikes:</strong>Boring conversations, rules and those who enforce them, dying<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong>Samuel’s parents are both Swedish, but they moved to the U.S.A. shortly after his birth. He grew up in New York City. He was always smart, and found that he preferred his school work to sports. In high school, he found a love for science, especially biology and chemistry. He decided quickly that he wanted to be a doctor.<br/><br/>While studying medicine, he also became a doctor of biochemistry as well. As an MD, Samuel was always motivated by looking for cures for sicknesses, rather than simply looking for ways to treat symptoms. This meant that he wasn’t exactly popular with drug manufacturers and pharmaceutical companies, since they couldn’t make any money if nobody was sick.<br/><br/>Eventually though, Samuel lost his medical license. One of his patients had been found to be terminally ill with cancer, and with no chance for a cure. Samuel had an idea though. With the patients consent, he gave the man more cancer, trying to control where it would manifest. He believed that, if he could control how the cancer would manifest and where it would appear, that he would be able to find a reliable cure, or perhaps even a way to use cancer to heal severe physical injuries.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, Samuel was caught. The only reason that he wasn’t sent to prison was because he had consent from his patient. Still, he lost his right to practice medicine. Only a month later, the anti-viral super drug was dispersed into the atmosphere…
