Samuel Luthor

"*Let it go? Are you fucking serious?! I’ve only gotten this far because I don't care. No, you know.. When you saw Earth you probably sat and cried. I got to work. I found a fresh start. Loneliness is good. It shields us. We have no baggage. No one can get to us. We have nothing to loose*!" - **Samuel J. Luthor, speaking to Anderson Winters**

Samuel James Luthor, portrayed by \_\_\_\_\_\_, is the deuteragonist in the Original YouTube Science Fiction Programme, known as 2024. He is usually seen accompanied by Anderson Winters [*Aiden Caufield*], an Ex-Time Agent from Earth.

### Background

Samuel James Luthor is a magnum-toting, ruthless, and highly skilled mercenary who serves as the Bluemoon’s Planetary Surface Operator within the Galactic Regions of the 2024 universe. He appears as the deuteragonist in the 2024 YouTube Series. Born in 1997, Samuel Luthor rose from an impoverished childhood in the North East of Britain.

### Early Life

Before the Collapse of the British Banking system, as a child, Samuel lived with his abusive father, a former factory worker, and his cynical but loving mother. Being an alcoholic and abusive parent, Samuel’s father was unreliable as a provider for the family.

Instead, his mother turned to her son, Samuel, for support, while also teaching him that relying on others was foolish, and that the only thing he could depend on was himself and his own gun. Luthor eventually ran away from home and joined the British Military.

From here, he was indoctrinated into the Newcastle Smallworlds facility, where he joined the Military Path, and was eventually tricked into Cryogenic Storage, alongside Anderson Winters, by Director John Netherwest. After leaving Cryogenic Storage, he made his way across the Wastelands of Earth through pure survival, heading East.

Here he discovered multiple mutated creatures, along with Nightkin, and eventually met a Bluemoon Squadron where he fell in love with Captain Gene Avery. Though Bluemoon Operatives were not permitted to have a loving relationship, as it was believed to disrupt work arrangements within the field, Samuel J Luthor and Captain Gene Avery would later have a child together in secret, a daughter named "Alex Ridley", of whom, would later grow up not knowing either of her parents, and end up joining the Black Mark, by force.

From here, he was able to secure himself a seat upon a Bluemoon Shuttle, and joined the Bluemoon under the eyes of General Turken Kadler. After the death of his wife, Gene Avery, whom he married without consent from the Bluemoon, Samuel Luthor became more bitter in retaliation and relied more on physical combat.

### Appearance

When first encountering Anderson Winters, he wore a mask to cover his face so that he would go unrecognized from the enemy, Sometimes he wore a black balaclava, if necessary. As for weapons, Samuel carries around a sniper rifle at all times, alongside a plasma based pistol, and a customized combat knife.

Samuel Luthor has a beard, which grows out over the period of Series One. Samuel is a muscular man, with little time for idiots.
