Alias: Samson (Public—superhero)
Sam (nickname)
Bio: Born on September 14th, 1991, Sam has lived in Crisis City his entire life. At age seventeen, he was recruited by the military to become part of a project known only simply Demi-God. He joined ninety-nine other recruits in this program.
Once at the military installation located deep in the heart of modern day Utah, it was explained to him that they would be experimented on and genetically modified to become super human. After one year of intense training and experimenting on them, that phase of the project ended.
They failed. Out of the one hundred recruits, only one survived: Sam. The process had been too much to bear for the other recruits, but he was barely able to endure. He became much stronger and had exponentially faster reflexes than the average man (as was intended by the scientists who had created the program) but something occurred that they hadn’t expected; he gained the ability to manipulate the ground beneath his feet. Yet, the project also left him scarred mentally. He soon became prone to fits of complete and utter rage and was guilty because he was the only one left alive. He had survivor’s guilt.
Though the military intended to hone his talents, he soon after escaped in a brilliantly planned escape from the instillation. He left because of the trauma and turmoil created within him during and after the project; he couldn’t take it any longer. Immediately after his escape, the government sent agents out to either, hunt him down and eliminate him, or capture him. He hid for two years in Ontario, Canada, then finally made his way back to Crisis City in January of 2013. All the while he’s been becoming stronger and learning to hone his talents.
