Description

Sam is a ten foot tall dragon-like fire demon. Her true demonic name is Morynenth, but she doesn't like using it. She is covered in heavily armoured red scales and lava plates which have saved her behind more than once. She has a pair of leathery wings which she uses to fly, her full wing span reaching twenty feet in diameter. With pointy horns, teeth and claws Sam is relatively intimidating. She suffers from 'permanent resting bitch face' and emotes very rarely. Although she is fairly androgynous and doesn't care for petty mortal constructs such as 'gender', she uses female pronouns so as not to confuse the human members of the party.

Sam has a human form she uses to blend in and not cause alarm on Earth. She refers to it as her 'flesh prison' and uses it as little as possible. This secondary form is a tall Hispanic woman with long curly dark brown hair and solid gold eyes with slit pupils. She claims she was never able to get the eyes right and just gave up trying to disguise them. Sam is very picky about how she dresses her human form and won't settle for anything less than the latest fashions. She buys new outfits often, as shifting back into her true form will destroy whatever she was wearing.

Backstory

Sam was born in Hell to her parents Oisinania (a fire demon) and Erkalthroth (an incubus). It was quickly apparent that Sam couldn't control fire, she could only create it, which is an utterly pointless ability in a place that's eternally burning. This disability put her in a poor position, as she was unable to train for the same job as her mother. Sam was ostracized by most of her own kind at a young age, including her own father who moved on very quickly during her childhood. She has a very close bond with her mother, who is the only thing she still misses about home. Sam found herself at the bottom of the demonic hierarchy and was trapped in, literally, a shitty job for the best part of six hundred years.

While living in Hell, Sam had a (relatively) brief relationship with a higher ranking demon named Denath. This relationship ended abruptly after an explosive argument, wherein Sam told him she never wanted to see him again. Shortly afterwards Sam was summoned to Earth by inept Spanish cultists. They had managed to botch the ceremony, and as a result Sam wasn't bound to them and could do whatever she wanted. She killed them all after they attempted to fix their mistake and send her back.

With her new found freedom, Sam spent the next three hundred years goofing off. She 'borrowed' one of the cultist's human forms as a disguise and wandered around the world doing various things including:

  • Terrorizing Spanish peasants
  • Exploring most of 17th century Europe
  • Being a pirate, then living on her dirty pirate money in the Caribbean
  • Pootling around revolutionary America
  • Convincing rich old men to write her into their will, then waiting for them to die and taking all their stuff
  • Opening a speakeasy
  • Appearing on TV as a quiz show contestant

Sam moved to Gotham during the 1960s, where her child Azazel was born. This was, fair to say, a surprise. Sam concealed his existence from the wider world, fearful of religious types or other demons discovering them. They moved to Bludhaven after the fall of Gotham, where Sam hired a live-in nanny named Melissa Mcree to keep an eye on Azazel for the rare occasion she had to leave him alone. It was during one of these periods where both Melissa and Azazel vanished, leaving a note that simply said 'The hunters found us'.
