Appearance: As in image but without the ear piercing
Name: Samuel Sarot
Alias: Sam
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Powers:
Snake Physiology: Sam shares some physical characeristics of snakes, such as scales, sharp fangs and colder blood. He can
use his tongue to smell/taste scent particles in the air, allowing him to keep track of living beings even in pitch
blackness. Sam can twist and contort his body to fit into spaces that most people cannot go and is very flexible like it's
namesake. Sam can solidify scales on his skin which help to maintain internal tempreture equlibrium and offer some
protection against the elements and slight protection from physical attacks. His body can hold water and food much longer
than most during the summer and has excellent heat protection, though due to his colder blood he is extremely vulnerable
during the winter and can die quicker than others without heavy protection from the cold. Sam otherwise has every physical sense and power commonly found in most ophidian species.
Enhanced Reflexes: Sam can react far faster than most human beings and can dodge high speed projectiles like throwing knives, arrows and baseballs, though even he has a hard time dodging bullets.
Enhanced Strength: Sam is marginally stronger than a human at peak physical addition.
Tension Control: Sam can store tension into his body and release it explosively when it is time to strike. This greatly
increases the penetration power of his physical attacks beyond what would normally be possible and can grant him a
tremendous boost in speed and leaping for charges and escapes, though the storing and releasing of this energy drains
Sam's energy quickly, thus he has to be careful not to use it too much least he face tuckering himself out.
Camouflage: His skin and scales can change colors to match his environment, making him completely invisible to the naked
eye, though thermal sensors and creatures with strong smell receptors can still detect him.
Venom Fangs: Sam possess two sharp canines on his upper jaw which he can use to pierce through flesh with ease. Sam can
generate within him a powerful neurotoxin which he can expel out of him through his fangs. Once in the bloodstream, the
venom targets the nervous system, which can cause paralysis. The potency and effects of the toxin can be altered by Sam depending on the contents and chemicals in his body at the time. The venom can be tampered by Sam to be lethal or non-lethal.
Alien beings or creatures with unusually high constituition can resist it, though the average human being will be
paralyzed in a matter of seconds by even a small amount. Sam's venom can be turned into a powerful painkiller by a skilled chemist. Sam is
immune to his own venom, though he can still be mildly affected by the painkiller part.
Strong Immune System: Sam is immune to most forms of snake venom and is highly resistant to most other forms of venoms and
toxins in comparison to the average human being.
Weaknesses:
Cold-Blooded: Sam's blood is significantly colder than most mammals and as such can be in very serious danger should he be
exposed in a cold area or hit with cold attacks. He gets frostbitten quicker and cannot live for long in such envirements
without serious protection.
Easily Fatigued: While Sam is better at storing energy for longer periods of time than most, due to a lack of warmth in
his blood any prolonged physical activity like running for extended periods or fighting can tire him out much faster than
others.
Personality Weakness: Sam has tremendous confidence in his intuition and his ideals, but it can sometimes blind him to
other people's concerns.
Skills:
Esoteric Knowledge: Samuel has spent a large portion of his life studying philosophy, astrology, mythology, psycology and
other abstract concepts like Justice with zeal, thus he has a promising potential for a scholar.
Mixed-Martial Arts Training: While only a few months worth of training in preparation for becoming an active hero, he does
know some of the basics regarding martial arts and self defense. His fighting style prioritizes striking vital areas such
as the eyes, neck and groin areas, placing emphasis on precision and speed over brute strength alone. Sam prefers to fight
only as a last resort, but should he need to he prefers to end it as quickly as possible.
Knife Proficiency: Has an uncanny skill for wielding knives and small blades.
Bio:
Samuel Sarot lived on the outskirts of San Diego, close enough to see the glitz and glamour (however much there
was)
of the city though still dwelled in the rustic neibhorhoods. Unlike very many metas who were gifted or sometimes cursed
with their powers in the middle of their lives, Samuel was born from the start with his. While his parents were thankfully
the understanding and nurturing kind, this drew ire from the people around him growing up, as well as from other metas who
thought he did not "earn" his powers as they were just gifted to him. While his parents were thankfully the understanding
sort, this often left young Sam alone and isolated throughout much of his life.
Despite the cold distances these experiences have caused within Samuel, he still felt within him a strange form of
fascination and curiosity with humans. He thought perhaps if he studied humanity, he can learn to become more human
himself. He studied his subjects with fervor, and soon fell in love with stories of knights, loyalty, and justice. This
drew from the detphs of his soul a burning desire for justice in a world he felt needed more of. In preparation for
becoming a hero to bring justice to the world, he spent some training in the martial and went on a spirit journey with a
shaman into the desert. After days of intention meditation, Samuel knew he was ready to rejoin the world and bring hope to
the hopeless.
Samuel admitatly has a hard time engaging socially and can be reclusive. Though he does not have many friends, he
is very
loyal to the few he does call friend. He has a respect for life and freedom, and has great disdain for those who would
take either away from another.
Other:
Sam always carries a copy of Sun Tzu's "The Art of War" on him at all times.
Note: Sam heard that there a series of problems that especially plagues La Vida and heard tales of metas emerging from the shadows and making a difference.
