SAMANTHA PORTER
Early 30's :: Human/Alliance :: Demolitions 'Expert'
Currently aboard the Novgorod






Character Background




In and out of orphanages from a young age, eventually passed from foster home to foster home.
Has a few happy memories of the families she stayed with, but they are few and far between.
Ran away at 17 and learned the hard way how to live on her own. Traded foster homes for detention centers.
Found a level of enjoyment in explosions, and the devices that cause explosions.
Began using her 'hobby' to pull bank heists.
Was captured by the Alliance on Pax, and rather than serve a prison sentence, was given the choice to enter a service rehabilitation program which she eagerly took. Three years of active service would earn her a pardon for her crimes.
Is now posted to the Novgorod under the command of Captain Quez.






Raw Material




Likes cheap beer and cheaper whiskey.
Enjoys going to swap meets whenever the Novgorod pulls into port, since that's where all the good stuff comes from.
When pressed she's actually fairly decent at defending herself, though some have described her as looking like a Kowakian Lizard Monkey in the process.
Enjoys spending time looking up useless facts, and is known to rattle a few of them off as she 'works'.
A self taught bomb maker, she's had her fair share of close calls with accidental detonator trips. So far her luck is holding, but there's no telling how long it will last.





Plot Ideas




Sam gets pulled for exterior hull cleaning duty after a row with Felcher; preferably written in reverse fashion should this be done.
Sam has to deliver a package. What's in the package? Who's it for? No one knows! Or do they?
Sam manages to sneak her way onto Jovan without an escort and meets...
Sam's luck runs out, and something very bad happens when one of her modified thermal detonators goes off.




Existing Relationships



Regan Altink - On again off again bedwarmer. She has a softspot for Novgorod's Chief Engineer and rather enjoys hearing him complain about anything and everything.
Ledo G. Prent - Sam only goes looking for Ledo when she's all out of drinking partners. Of course, after their last outing, he's not allowed to 'babysit' her anymore.
Jaden Luka - She thinks he's got a big mouth and a bigger ego, and wonders if he was dropped on his head when he was a baby.
Arnold Felcher - Hate is too nice of a word for how she feels about Felcher.
