[b]Personality[/b]
As the leader of this group, he stays calm and collected, but always focused, and hard working, ensuring the survival of his group. Knowing that almost all hard decisions are put on him, he is mostly very stressed out, trying to pick the right one, knowing one could lead to something good, or at least survival, and the other, certain death. The calm side, and stressed side of him often clash, trying to put one above of the other, causing him to take longer times with his decisions, and sometimes lash out. Even while being the leader, there are some people that do not have hope, he, almost being one of them. Right and wrong, life and death, confidence and insecurity, all trying to get the best of him at every turn.

[b]History[/b]
[b][u]Pre-Apocalypse:[/u][/b]
Samuel was in college for most of his years, studying in the prehistoric time periods, his favorite being, the ice age. Having a strong confidence in himself, he opened up a small company, called Hawthorne Inc. From there, he funded archeological dig sites, and research expeditions all over the world. His recognition for his intelligence grew, and he became a famous scientist.

Because of his fame around the world, and recognition in his field of study, NASA recruited him to help predict, and help reverse the Ice Age. When his attempts failed he was in the worst position when it started.

[b][u]Post-Apocalypse[/u][/b]
When it hit, he was in the center of it. Viscous snowstorms, deadly blizzards, and the most cruel climate. Samuel banded together with a small group in f scientists and employees at NASA, so they traveled in a pack. Staying on the move, they were able to make it past such terrible weather, and into more calmer places. Going from place to place, they lost, and gained many people in the cold hell that lied before them. Since Samuel was the most qualified, and experienced, he was voted the leader, to keep them safe, and know where to go, and what to do.
