Appearance: [Samantha](http://i1136.photobucket.com/albums/n494/lalliman/bb1fd2b1438ef01489e56c365cd75560.jpg)
Personality: Cocky, impulsive, reckless and easily-bored. Quick to laugh, slow to anger and unlikely to take anything seriously.
Powers: As the apprentice of the legendary [Buck Lorris]( http://static.fjcdn.com/gifs/A+flaming+roundhouse+kick+to+the+face_b19f18_4463329.gif), Sam specializes in close-combat fire magic. She can create fire from any part of her body and is completely immune to the fire she controls, but her ranged control is poor. She can only effectively control fire within about three feet of herself; when it passes beyond that range, it briefly continues moving in whatever direction it previously was before snuffing out like fire without a fuel source would.
Instead of focusing on ranged control, she was taught the Warrior’s Flame technique, where she envelops a part of her body in flames in order to increase its strength, speed and durability, to the point where she could, for example, punch through a steel plate without hurting her fist. When used on her legs, she can kick with even greater force than her punches and run at incredible speed, leaving behind a trail of fire on the ground. She could ignite her entire body to get all benefits at once, but that tends to drain her energy too quickly, so instead she switches the fire on any given body part on or off when needed.
She’s also trained on expelling the fire she does control as explosively as possible. The main purpose of that, beside being a prerequisite for some of her advanced techniques, is to achieve flight by producing powerful jets of flame from both hands and both feet. She can go very fast that way and has fair maneuverability, but it leaves her without many ways to attack as long as she wants to sustain flight.
Aside from her basic abilities, there are several advanced techniques that are more powerful if properly executed. To do any of them, she needs to loudly announce the name of the technique, otherwise it doesn’t work. Don’t ask why, she doesn’t understand either.
Dragon Punch! – She briefly charges her attack before going for a punch that, upon impact, releases a directed explosion from her fist that can send people flying with ease. If her arm becomes completely stretched without hitting anything, the explosion will go off as well.
Barrage of Flaming Fists! – Activating this gives her arms a significant speed boost that allows her so throw punches so quickly that her target may think she has half a dozen fists. A powerful attack, but fairly easy to interrupt and it may exhausts her pretty quickly. Can be altered into Barrage of Flaming Feet.
Crimson Meteor! – Can only be used while airborne. She covers her entire body in flames and uses her fire jets to fly towards her opponent at full speed. On impact, her excess kinetic energy is transformed into a fiery explosion, larger and more powerful the faster she was going. Due to the Warrior’s Flame, self-damage is minimal. Very powerful, but needs some acceleration time to reach full effect.
