Let's Dig A Little Deeper
Personality:: Sam is a motivated, crafty, determined individual, striving to reach any goal they set out for themselves. If he gets the desire to do or have something in his head, there's barely any swaying him. He's competitive by nature, wanting to be the best at whatever he does and if he's bested he is persistent, until he reaches a point where it seems like there's no hope for him to be the best, which ends up making him crash and burn. He can't stand the thought of being beaten, and he gets very emotional when he's hopeless. Sam goes to great lengths to do what he feels he needs to do, and isn't above being harsh, manipulative or cruel to get to what he wants.
He's witty, crass and sarcastic in his speaking, as he's usually rather blunt, but he knows how to make appearances if he has to. He can be seen as somewhat rude at times, but he just tells the truth and doesn't care about what anyone thinks. Sam has never been in love, and feels as though he may never be, unless someone can catch his attention and keep it long enough. And he feels as though he's met a person who can do that...Spain. Though he'll never admit it, he may be in love with him...or maybe he's just so interested because he's someone he can't have. He's unsure, but he wants to find out, and his competitive nature may drive him to do anything to get with Spain over anyone else.
History:: Sam was born to a relatively wealthy family. At an early age it was apparent that he had talent, he wasn't a genius or superbly athletic, but he was very artistically gifted. He could draw and paint quite well, and was quite the virtuoso. However, perhaps his greatest lied in his dancing. He was very fond of ballet and practiced dancing more than he did any other art. His passion soon turned his family to getting him classes to hone his skills, and honing his skills soon led to more professional endeavors. He loved the competitive spirit of many of those he worked with and enjoyed working together with such spirited individuals, all working together but trying to best the other in the end.
However, there was a lot of pressure to do good for competitions and shows and such, and the large amount of press attention he was getting was extremely stressful which caused him to get a great deal of anxiety. Eventually, after several breakdowns and panic attacks, Sam's parents got him psychiatric help. Despite the anxiety medication Sam was still under immense stress and eventually tried to kill himself by od'ing on pills but the attempt was failed and his parents took him out of dancing and thanks to the fact that it was during his school year at Le Rogue the press didn't find out. Sam was extremely upset over this and felt as though his parents were punishing him by taking him out of dancing. But despite not being able to do any professional dancing he continued practicing it diligently in secret, not letting his parents know because they had associated the thought of him dancing with him trying to kill himself, and got mad at him if they ever saw him dancing.
Other: He speaks Dutch, French, and English.
