Though she is wise, she can sometimes be naive and is quick to believe people's good intentions. She is mostly optimist and good-natured, he smile never fails to warm even the coldest of hearts. 

[b][color=00aeef]History:[/color][/b] Samantha was orphaned at a very young age and hardly remembers anything about her biological parents. Though from her appearance and name Samantha guesses that one of her parents was a westerner - maybe both. She never lingered on the though long enough to do more than wonder haphazardly; her heritage is and will always be from the land of Daokai. 

The orphanage in the city of Udai was small, mostly run by the local unemployed women. Samantha wasn't particularly social and was often pegged as shy and introverted. She would get angry but never showed it, having no outlet for it she decided it was easier to stay away from people instead of using them as punching bags, literally. 

She rarely joined the other orphans for any activity or gatherings and instead chose to spend most of her time at the neighbouring dojo. She expressed a particular interest in martial arts and fighting. Masimoto, her sensei, sensed a great power within the shy young girl but saw how her anger set her back. Before even showing her anything, they practiced meditation until she had full control of her emotions. Masimoto trained her for years to come and as he had not married, or had any children, her took on a paternal role with Samantha early on. On her 16th birthday, he gifted her a hand-crafter Dao sword, which she still carries with her to this day.

When Masimoto passed away, she left the village and travelled around the continent, finding great peace in helping others. Samantha did everything from bringing thieves to justice to smaller tasks like finding lost horses and bringing them back to their owners.
