Sam grew up on an Indian Reservation in Montana.He spent a lot of time with his father who taught him to hunt, fish and trap. Sam became good at it and picked it up naturally. He is a skilled hunter and likes to track big game. He is good at finding animal signs and tracking them. He only hunts for food and neverfor sport. He only kills what he needs to survive.

When the plague hit and the infected started to appear. Sam and his family took refuge in the hills. Unfortunately his family fell victim to the plague and he is the only survivor. Sam is on his own but has the skills to survive the rugged land.

He is a friendly person and he is willing to take the risk to help a stranger. He would give them the shirt off his back if asked.

Sam left Livonia and headed to Nyhiem to see if there were any survivors. He has lived off the land on his journey. He is ready for a new adventure and to meet new survivors.

Sam prefers a long range bolt action weapon. He believes these are the best for taking big game in the wild. He believes they are more accurate than semi-autos. He likes lining up shots and taking his time and then squeezes the trigger when ready.

He prefers to have a couple sharp knives and a hatchet handy for cleaning and skinning animals. He likes warm hunting clothes and backpacks for his journey. He also likes carrying a couple canteens and matches to start fires. He likes the Boy Scout motto “Be Prepared” Sam is prepared for anything Nyheim may throw at him.
