Personality:
Sam is a very bright and in your face kind of girl, what with her colorful clothing choice and her loud voice. She is the first to try and make friends with people and hates to make any snap judgements about a person, often giving them way to many chances before she finally cuts ties, and even then she has never believed anyone to be truly dislikeable.
She often comes across as this very ditzy and loud girl who is more interested in music festivals, getting wasted or high, and having sex than anything else. Although there is a side to her that enjoys spontaneity and the freedom that comes with drinking and dancing the night away, Sam does have her head put on straight and has never let herself get into any serious trouble like a run in with the police or doing drugs.
Whether surprisingly or not, Sam is a very intelligent girl and was accepted into the Yale School of Medicine, although she keeps this mainly to herself, the only other person who knows being her brother Thomas. Sam isn't intelligent in the classic way, where she excels at a multiple things. Her intelligence is pretty much limited to biology, chemistry and medicine, with her often finding physics and mathematics annoying at best.
History:
Sam was born to a pretty normal, middle class family, and was one of two fraternal twins. The other being her brother Thomas. Sam and Thomas were very close and they grew up and had a happy childhood together, however everything started falling apart between them as they entered teenagehood.
Thomas has always been an intelligent and overachieving boy, and he maintained this as he went into high school, immediately being labelled as a 'Nerd'. Sam, on the other hand, decided to bury her passion for medicine, and instead decided to focus on socialising and making friends, where she soon found a place with the 'Preps'. Though there was some tension, the two basically chose to ignore each other for the majority of the time.
Sam was happy for her Freshman and Sophomore year with her group of friends, however after accidentally listening in on a conversation between them, she came to the realisation that the people she called her friends did not carry the same sentiment. However, instead of making a big deal of out it, she instead chose to just phase herself out of that group and look for new friends. This was went Sam began to go to parties and started drinking a lot, much to her brothers disapproval, and it was through these parties that she found her way into the skater crowd. It didn't hurt that she also knew how to skateboard as well.
It was after finding these new friends that Sam and Thomas relationship broke down. Thomas did not approve of Sam's friends and he wasn't afraid to vocalise that. When Sam found out she had been picked for the Camp Tolerance thing along with her brother, her only comfort was the idea that she wouldn't be completely alone throughout the ordeal.
