### Early Life

As an angel, Samuel has existed for billions of years. He served God as Heaven's chief Military commander, commanding the soldiers of heaven.

Samuel assisted Lucifer in creating Demons and took part in the War of Heaven, but was ultimately defeated by God, the archangels and the rest of the angels. For his crimes, Samuel was punished and imprisoned into Hell, a realm of eternal suffering.

In his time in Hell, more than five billion years of constant torture deep in the dungeons of Hell, Samuel became consumed with revenge. Following the unlocking of Hell's gates, Samuel managed to escape Hell and roam the earth. Now on earth, Samuel proceeded with his plan. Weak from the ceaseless torture he suffered, he rounded up the demons that escaped and got them to do perform soul deals with humans, so he could take their souls to empower so he can regain his strength. Heaven was made aware of this, and God commanded Michael to make Tim find out who's selling human souls.
