Sam

Sam is one of the main characters from High School Sucks. She is a 17-year-old high school student.
== History ==
Sam was born male, but has felt like a girl her whole life.
From what has been mentioned of her past, when she was younger she would play with dolls instead of doing "guy stuff" with Felix.
== Personality ==
Sam is described as cool and rather girly. She loves her best friends and would do anything for them, although she can be rude to them sometimes. While she is more lenient towards Janet than Felix is, she can still get annoyed with her.
Sam is supportive of Janet's crush on Derick at first. However, she does not hesitate to get violent towards Derick, slapping him after he harshly rejects Janet. He later warms up to Derick or at least stops hating him when Janet reveals she's engaged to him, and cares enough about him to worry when it turns out he was in a car accident.
Sam likes being seen as cute, asking whether she would be cute as a girl, and later enthusiastically commenting that a friendship group with two girls and a boy is "kawaii" ("cute").
Sam gets upset when confronted by a teacher after transitioning to female, but nonetheless stands up for herself by yelling at the teacher. She in confident in her belief that there's nothing wrong with "changing genders" and that people are always themselves regardless, but backs down when the principal threatens to expel her.
Sam is implied to be rather smart, always having straight As. Her academic intelligence doesn't show much, but she is shown to be emotionally intelligent when she empathises with Janet even after getting brutally bashed by her.
== Chronology ==
--TBA--
== Relationships ==
Janet
Sam and Janet have been best friends for a long time, possibly since childhood. She is supportive of Janet but can get annoyed with her. She is shown to be very protective of Janet.
Felix
Similar to Janet, Sam has been best friends with Felix for a long time, possibly since childhood. When they were younger, Sam didn't do "guy stuff" with Felix, which supposedly made Felix lonely. Even so, they seem to trust each other a lot, with Sam being the first person Felix tells about the situation with Jessica and Brandi.
Derick
Sam is initially sceptical of Derick but nonetheless supportive of Janet's crush on him. However, when Derick harshly rejects Janet, Sam quickly gets violent and slaps Derick, and continues to be defensive of Janet when Derick is around. From that point forward, Sam dislikes Derick and sees him as a jerk. However, when Janet reveals that she is engaged to Derick, Sam is very supportive. It's implied Sam no longer hates Derick, or can at least tolerate him, because she is very concerned when he doesn't show up to the wedding and turns out to have been involved in a car accident, going out of her way to confirm whether he is okay.
Jane
Sam meets Jane after the latter informs her of Derick's situation. Jane asks for Sam's phone number, which she gives to her. Sam says Jane seems nice and that she might invite her to her group's Friday coffee meeting.
