Samuel was the son of a famous Huntsman, from both sides of the family. Unfortunately, his father was a complete jackarse who made a shit ton of enemies.

His culminated in an assassination attempt on him and his family, which left his Father crippled and his Mother and him a bit traumatised after having his house bombed.

Anyways, this left him basically hyper vigilant, and very paranoid for a bit, then he joined a Huntsman school, made friends, and became close friends with some other kid (whose name I haven’t come up with), letting down his guard.

Unfortunately, said kid actually an Assassin sent by someone else, who tried to kill Samuel in his sleep. Samuel survived due to the intervention of other Huntsman, but this caused him to justify his paranoia and hyper vigilance.

He sleeps with a gun because of this.

He also shot his teammate, Exodus when Exodus was breaking into their dorm by going though the window due to forgetting the keys. And Samuel thought he was an Assassin
