"all the stories are true."


for @lanabanana & @bluebirdbarnes

muse a used to be a hunter. not the kind of hunter that goes into the woods and gets some game. no, they come from a long line of supernatural hunters. muse a grew up learning how to wield weapons because that was how she was raised. her best friend was in the business too and they endured the family business and high school together. after high school, muse a decided she wanted to focus on having a real life and so she decided to quit the hunting business while her friend stayed on. muse a went to college and was doing well for herself till her friend comes into time on a particularly hard hunt and asks for help. muse a agrees to help one last time but venturing into the forest separates them and muse a ends up seriously injured by some supernatural creature -- here comes in muse b, another supernatural creature who finds muse a and takes them in to treat them. now, while muse a stays in that small cabin and recovers, she's forced to question whether she was wrong all along about supernatural creatures and the dangers they pose.

getting personal
positive traits
determined | once sam sets her mind to something, there is rarely anything that stops her. she won't allow anyone to get in her way.
loyal | it takes a bit to get sam on your side, but once that's happened, you can be sure she will never let you down. some would say loyalty is something of a fault too, since she would easily put the wants and needs of those close to her above all else, even doing the right thing.
helpful | sam may be a bit rough around the edges when you first meet her, but really, she tries to help people as much as she can. she doesn't like to see people get hurt. truthfully, she's a big softie. there just aren't many people that get to see that side of her.
negative traits
impulsive | sam tends to act without thinking and, not surprisingly, this gets her into a lot of dangerous situations, and pretty fast too. sam is not organised contract killer. if she sees something untoward taking place, she comes in guns blazing.
blunt | sam can sometimes be offensive without thinking about it because she has no filter whatsoever. it doesn't help that she's more or less emotionally closed off.
vengeful | sam is already on something of a revenge mission, and nothing can really dissuade her from her vengeful side that tends to take over every now and then.
likes
→ guns | knives | night time | alcohol | hunting | flirting | one night stands | fast food | spicy food | any food really | photography | classical rock music | playing the guitar | cars | winter | reading | horror movies
dislikes
→ most supernatural creatures | especially werewolves | missing her target | failure | getting too close to people | pity or sympathy (same thing really) | sitting still | country music | vegetables (ew) | romantic movies
talents
→ wielding guns | wielding knives | martial arts | photography | quoting famous authors or books | she also makes a mean plate of pasta
habits
→ bites her nails | fiddles with her knives when she's bored or nervous
fears
→ getting too attached to someone -- then losing them.
mental ailments
→ nothing diagnosed, but nobody who meets sam would say she's totally alright in her head. she's unpredictable.

her backstory
mother
elizabeth o'connor | "my mom was the best. she gave me my first set of hunting knives and she was probably the only one who could use them better than me. i miss her." | deceased | sam's mother died when sam was about twelve years old. it was no kind death either, but more of a very violent one considering she was attacked by a pack of ruthless werewolves. when she was alive, her mother and her were very close, and to this day, sam keeps a locket that belonged to her around her neck. it's a small flat circle, plated in gold, with her mother's initials on it -- prior to her marriage.
father
jameson o'connor | "i could tell you loads of stories about dad but none of them would involve his hunting skill. he was a funny guy. the best. i just wish he was still around." | deceased | like her mother, sam's father was also brutally killed by the same wolf pack, when both parents were at home while sam was out. she regrets ever leaving the house. it had been her way of acting out because her dad didn't take her along for a hunt, and she wanted to prove that she was old enough since she had been getting more than enough training. she came home to find them both slaughtered. before that, sam and her father were extremely close, and in their own weird way, they were a very happy family. good things never last forever though.
siblings
joseph kingston | older adoptive brother | "he's an ass but... i guess he's okay." | alive | apart from her uncle, joseph is the closest thing sam has to a family. he's a hunter that she grew up with after she came to live with her uncle. he had sort of just adopted him after he was orphaned as well, and while they didn't initially hit it off, they eventually came to see each other as siblings. joseph is older than sam by three years.
other relationships
henry o'connor | uncle | "my uncle has always had my back, and he's always been like another dad to me, even when my dad was alive." | henry o'connor didn't hesitate to take sam under his wing when her parents were killed, and like them, he too was a hunter. she just had to move out of australia and join him in america. he's the closest thing she has to a dad right now, and while they don't share emotions like normal families, both of them do love each other. sam just sort of went her own way when she began to get leads on the werewolf pack that killed her parents, and joseph had split from them long before that to do his own thing as well. sam is now out of the hunting life, since she accomplished her goals, but often meets up with henry and joseph whenever she can. both of them continue to hunt, even to this day.
extras
→ samantha has taught herself french and spanish so she's fluent in both languages.

about appearances
height
→ 1.8m
weight
→ 81kg
hair
→ rafael's dark hair is kept a little longish, often slicked back with gel any which way.
eyes
→ his eyes are a dark nut brown, and do no real favours for his resting bitch face with their piercing gaze.

getting personal
positive traits
alert | he's always been attuned to his surroundings, aware of what's going on. even before he was turned it was hard to spring surprises on him - now it's almost impossible.
gentle | as much as he can be, now and then. he never hurts people any more than necessary.
empathetic | he used to be the mother hen of his pack, always offering emotional support whenever they needed it with no questions.
negative traits
avoidant | most evident in the lifestyle he's chosen for himself, but then again he's always been known to attempt to avoid or wait out his own problems.
paranoid | he's still afraid the consequences of his old life might catch up to him, so he's always got a watchful eye out.
unfriendly | at least that's how he usually comes off to people when he goes into town once a week to buy supplies. it certainly doesn't stop the girls from thinking he's hot, though.

→ classical music + pasta + coffee + shades of blue + fruit + boots + nature +fishing
dislikes
→ crowds + attention + rain + hunting + sweets + loud music + the colour orange + modern technology
talents

his backstory
mother
→ luisa estévez garcia | alive | to luisa, rafael was her first ray of hope - having moved with her husband to america, they'd struggled as a couple to make a living for themselves, and rafael's arrival was all the encouragement she needed to keep pressing on. even as he grew up and began breaking her heart with the crowd he was hanging around with, she still held on to hope; and now that she believes him dead, she hopes that he's at last happy in heaven.
father
→ robert caldera rozario | alive | robert wasn't a bad father, he was just never... there. he was close to luisa in the beginning, of course, but as work got more demanding and responsibilities started popping up he began spending more time at work. it was always overtime this, extra that, and before he knew it he was the first out the door in the mornings and the last to return at night, only spending time with his family on weekends (and sometimes not even then). he still regrets not being there for rafael more, and is trying to do for jaime what he couldn't do for rafael.
brother
→ jaime caldera estévez | alive | younger by three years, he always saw rafael as his cool older brother; an image that rafael cherished. he absolutely doted on jaime, and always tried to be a good role model for him. as jaime got older, he became more independent, and rafael thinks perhaps this was for the better, because at least he knows jaime won't go down the same path he did.
uncle
→ alonso estévez garcia | alive | he doesn't live near his sister's family, and is a little bit of a nut - but when rafael needed somewhere to hide, alonso pulled through by offering him his old cabin in the woods. it's no holiday inn, but rafael's been pretty comfortable there, and is grateful to his uncle for the help.
