Skills:

Main Skill: Rugby – Sam plays Left Prop on the school’s Sixth Form rugby team. It is an outlet for his anger and he is a prolific player, notoriously brutal. But he’s good and enjoys it. He has been playing rugby since Fourth Year when he tried out for the Upper School team and was accepted. Before that, he played football and loathed it. He is much better suited to football.

Secondary Skill: Leader – Sam is a natural leader when he can get his temper under control. He’s a good public speaker, he’s very confident and self-assured. He’s good at holding authority, organising large groups of people and would make a good, encouraging manager when he’s older.

Third Skill: Business – Sam is naturally good at business down to his authoritative and charming demeanour. He’s smart, as sharp as a pin and because of his charm and charisma, he’s good with people and making negotiations. He understands business. It’s in his blood.

Main Weakness: Anger – Sam has notorious anger issues which stem from his childhood. He has been in numerous violent fights with his peers, especially with Damien Ashcroft. He’s unable to contain it. It’s probably genetic, given his father’s history.

Secondary Weakness: Alcohol and other substances – Sam has an unhealthy relationship with alcohol which he uses as a way to soothe his emotions instead of feeling them. He becomes aggressive when drunk but can’t seem to kick the habit. He also has the same relationship with most drugs and smokes cannabis daily.

Third Weakness: English Literature/Language – while a good public speaker, Sam is not a strong writer and has a complete disinterest for writing and reading. His spelling isn’t fantastic and he lacks the concentration to read books.

Driving Capability: *

Academic Strengths: Business, Sports and Science

Academic Weaknesses: Music and English Literature

Hobbies: Sam enjoys playing sports, specifically rugby and working out in the gym, which seems to help tame his temper and subdue his anger. He also likes listening to music, going to gigs, hanging out with his friends, going to parties; smoking weed, drinking alcohol at the pub and going to raves. He likes to jog to clear his mind but he also enjoys playing Xbox and watching television in his underwear, ‘slobbing’. Sam’s idea of a good night is with his friends, hitting a bong and eating a kebab with a beer in his hand and an Xbox controller in the other. He also enjoys masturbating frequently.

Other Skills: Sam is rather charismatic when he wants to be and this aids him in being a successful leader. He also has a determined streak which is a plus to being a leader. When he sets his mind to something, he nearly almost always achieves it. Furthermore, Sam is a strong public speaker, even if he isn’t good at writing the script. Amongst various other skills, he’s a strong fighter and easily beats his opponents. He can also burp the Simpsons theme song and swear colourfully.
