Samuel Montero

== General==
Saturn Samuel is a main character in The Michaelverse. He is SolarSaturns interpretation of Sammy Emily from Five Nights at Freddy's.
==Appearance==
Samuel is Afro-Colombian with longer curly black hair that he keeps tied back. His eyes are gray, usually portrayed as black, and usually described as "lifeless". He has a horrible case of RBF, making it near impossible to tell if he's mad at you or not. Samuel tries to keep good posture to avoid looking smaller than he is, often having to force himself to stand up straighter.
You'll almost never see him without his detective attire on, more specifically his coat. He favors wearing anything with sleeves or takes the time to bandage his arms. Most of the time he'll wear black leather gloves to hide the bite marks on his hands when they get at their worst. Concealed under his clothes and bandages he has a tattoo on his upper left arm. Unseen underneath the sleeve on his left wrist, he'll be wearing the blue friendship bracelet Ruth gave to him.
This next section contains mention of self-harm. 
===Notable Scars=== 
*One older scar over his left eye. (Springlock Incident)
*Numerous small older scars along wrists (Self inflicted)
* Bite marks over both hands and his left arm. (Self inflicted)

*One long scar along his right forearm (Attempt)
*Four long scars mutilating his face (Burntrap) [MV Exclusive]
*Faded long scratches on his back (Sarah) [MV Exclusive]
==Personality==
Outwardly, Samuel presents as a very quite and private person. He prefers to remain silent rather than to socialize, often finding it just as hard if not harder to talk with people he's acquainted with usually resulting in what he considers the "social script". Samuel is a better listener than he is anything else. He's extremely selective on the personal information he gives people, not afraid to tell lies about himself to push people away. He's not the type to beat around the bush and keeps it straight with people especially when it comes to doing his job. 
Inwardly, he's extremely self destructive. He suffers from severe depression and anxiety. He believes he is undeserving of any meaningful relationships and anything he does just "isn't enough". He heavily repressed his anger issues from when he was a teenager, when he gets mad it's pretty bad. He doesn't really seem to take care of himself often forgetting to eat or sleep and taking up unhealthy habits, like smoking. As much as it harms him physically, these habits usually make his mood worse or dampened dependent on the day.
He's always found it hard to connect with people. Preferring if everyone would just leave him lest he grow a genuine attachment and end up embarrassing himself or inevitably getting them killed.
Samuel never really talks about his interests because he believes he doesn't really have any. This, of course, isn't true.
He's always had an interest in movies since he was a teenager, him being inside a lot has only fueled this interest. While he has a preference for horror he'd watch just about anything.
Samuel also has a passion in music. Him being in a band as a teenager sparked his interest in bass guitar which led him to joining a real band as a young adult. He has a large variety of bands he enjoys, metal and rock being his favorite genres. He doesn't talk about it much but his bass guitar is extremely valuable to him. He takes very good care of it, becoming restless if he doesn't know exactly where it is at all times. He used to have a collection of varying guitars and is well known in the art of restoring them.
Samuel has an extremely hard time openly rambling or speaking about his interests in length but if one were to indulge him he could go for hours.
==Backstory==
Reworking. . .
==Michaelverse Lore==
Samuel suddenly showed up after drinking himself to sleep and was rudely awakened in Michaelverse. Initially, He tried to be as stand-offish as he could to the other characters becoming borderline hostile if they overstepped their boundaries. Samuel was never okay with the notion of Michaelverse being a second chance. He knows these people are dead. He's seen them all die. It's not fair.
Samuel at one point used to be on okay terms with mostly everyone. He participated in most of the rescue missions at the risk of what was left of his dwindling mental state. Actively going outside to make sure things were running decent enough. These days? Samuel is finding less and less reasons to leave his apartment. Preferring to isolate himself like how he's used to. The places he used to enjoy going have been getting more and more tainted with things he wish he could un-see. Samuel has been finding himself enjoying things less and less. He can only really trust a handful of people. He can't really give a fledged opinion on leaving and going back to his universe for good. Is it even really worth it? He's going to die one way or another.
On his more off days, Samuel will consider the idea that Michaelverse is actually hell. Like biblical hell. He might play this off as a stupid idea to himself but sometimes he can't help but consider it.
His place of residence in Michaelverse is a near exact replica of his apartment back home. You can't actually find it under normal circumstances by wandering around. You have to specifically be looking for Samuel to find it. It's often regarded as an uncomfortable and empty place to be, more by Samuel himself.

==Relationships== 
*Red Gregory - -
*Ruth - While not a duo you'd expect, Samuel considers Ruth a friend. Probably even a best friend. He thinks highly of her and cares a lot her safety. He does his best to go out of his way to make sure she's at least content. Although her implications of "higher beings" make him slightly uncomfortable he doesn't let it show. He is painfully aware that sometimes his..outbursts scare her. He tries not to get like this when she's around. Samuel finds that in certain aspects ring is easier to talk to. This is because Ruth has no counterpart in Playback and thus, has not been forced to see her die. It feels like he made an actual friend, something he has not been able to do in a very long time.
*Gamer Mike - Samuel is well, fond of Gamer. But in a completely friend like way. You wouldn't get it. On the top 5 list of people he would walk in front of the bullet for at least. He believes he's funny and nice to talk to even though most of the time he has no idea what Mike is talking about. Samuel likes hanging out with him even if they're just doing nothing. Being around him is nice. While Samuel tries to be casual he often finds himself overthinking when trying to talk to Michael which often causes him to pull away in his actions. 
Ever since Samuel met Michael's dead counterpart he can't shake the feeling that he stopped Michael from being genuinely happy. 
**Qwerty - FUCK you.
*Nori Mike - Samuel thinks Nori Mike is pretty alright. He respects Mike's ability to multitask, taking care of others while still seemingly having respect for themself. Although Samuel has an ability to read through these things, he feels it's never his business to pry into how someone is actually feeling as that would be hypocritical so he does his best to not look into their life. Samuel has a difficult time talking to Nori Mike and believes he probably doesn't like him.
*Rus Mike - Samuel is on okay terms with Rus Mike. Like with most people he has a difficult time referring to her as a friend but he has nothing directly against her. Samuel can't shake the feeling that Rus Mike doesn't really like him. Rus Mike's closeness to Rosario sets him off slightly, believing that she could easily pull a 180 on him. 
*Rosario - Samuel hates Rose. Rosario jumping to conclusions and threatening to kill him without hearing his side of the story is all too familiar to what he grew up around. Especially the fact that Rose found family in Miller, someone Samuel will never forgive. Maybe he doesn't value his life that much to care that Rose wants to murder him but he also threatened to kill Gamer. If he wanted to be threatened with his own live or his loved ones he'd just go back to his own damn universe.
*Blue Gregory - Samuel thinks Blue is a good kid. Despite what Samuel has gone through for Blue's sake he still wants to help him live a better life here in Michaelverse.
