[u][b]Age:[/b][/u] 90 [u][b]Gender:[/b][/u] Male [u][b]Psych. Eval.:[/b][/u] “Sam Waltz Bridge is quite an open person. He doesn’t have much to hide nor does he shy away from stating his feelings or concerns. He is very honest to say the least, more so then a lot of other people that I met. Sam has great hospitality towards friends and family, even with strangers that he has yet to meet. He’ll feed you, cloth you, and let you take a bath in his shower, if you need it. There is no sight of antagonistic behavior in his bone, albeit that can quickly change. Sam, seen in his history and in various interviews, has no heart for anyone that crosses him or anyone else in his circle. Sam has also no concerns for himself, displaying a truly selfless method of thinking to his world views. He greatly cares for others and for their wellbeing, and does great with kids. He respects those who go out of their way to aid others, akin to himself. He lacks patience and respect for people who actively harms others, innocents and likewise, and those who don’t give a damn about others and who don’t think about their actions and consequences. Sam doesn't have any kind of hidden agenda and has provided himself to be highly reliable in his words. If he is going to shoot you then expect to be shot within the next few seconds, if he is not being sarcastic that is, but he often does say that he is being sarcastic. A result that comes from his time spent with orphans with psychosocial and social disabilities. Sam is very hard to anger. We try everything from making his food the wrong way, messing up his room, and anything else, but it never gets to him. The only anger we saw from him was when he read the news on the current development in either local, national [Systems Alliance], or galactic news and politics.” - Psychologist Adam Will. [u][b]Phys. Eval.:[/b][/u] “Sam has not let up his physical health in his life span of 90 years. From our standards, he is very healthy and I don’t have much concern for his health because of it. Besides from his general health, Sam has a much higher level of endurance, able to endure multiple marathons. Strength wise, he is above average, and his vision is a 20/20.” - Doctor Oates [u][b]Biotics:[/b][/u] N/A [u][b]Qualifications:[/b][/u] “Sam has an interesting set of qualifications for himself. The man is a competent soldier, resulting from his time in the Systems Alliance Marine Corps. He understands how to handle a rifle, throw a grenade, and what have you. In the marines, he was a heavy weapon specialist. The skills from his specialisation is still with him today, as we have actively seen in his time right now in an active warzone. He can lug around a light machine, rocket launcher, and general heavy weapons with ease and speed. He can reload a LMG or rocket faster than your regular time user of heavy arms, and aim it pretty damn well too. Moving on, we will explain his political and educational qualifications. Sam has only finished high school, but he displays a great understanding of the social-economic and political situation in the Systems Alliance, and to a lesser extent other nations on a case-by-case basis. This stems from, as even Sam had said for himself, his time in the Systems Alliance Socialist Party. Sam also knows a good deal of Cerberus itself from self-study and source finding. Of course, it's nothing too confidential but it is enough knowledge to gain an edge over them. Sam has a talent for cooking as well. We have tasted his food before and it's quite good for what mounts to a budget of 3 credits for our whole group. As an added bonus, he also makes for a good janitor too. Not only that, Sam is a highly experienced veteran in combating slavery and trafficking from his 30 plus years of it. Sam also has vast experience in running radical groups and movements for some 40 or some years as well.” - Evaluation Paper on Sam Waltz Bridge [u][b]History:[/b][/u] “Sam has an interesting upbringing to say the least. He was born on the planet of Rows, just a few years before the Reaper Wars. His parents were killed in the aftermath of the conflict, and got adopted by Amelie Atkinson and Tel'no T'reava. At the age of 19, Sam was captured in a slave-raid while in transit to one of the Systems Alliance world repopulation programs out in the Terminus Sector. For 5-years, Sam labored under various different masters, traded and sold off every so often. Sam, as noted in his early interviews, did have a romantic and sexual relationship with a Quarian male named Zaator'Teerul vas Jeedir, who later died in the service of the Terminus Black Army, an organization I will explain shortly. He would have either died as a slave or likewise, but he got lucky. The Terminus Black Army, an anarcho-communist anti-slave militia, freed him on a small trade station. From there, Sam joined the Black Army, and aided them in their anti-slavery operations in the Terminus Sector for some 10 years, before the Systems Alliance caught him and mistaken him as a slaver himself. It didn’t take long for the Systems Alliance to realize their mistake. In an odd turn of events, the local Systems Alliance Marine Colonel offered Sam to join their ranks and help them in combating slave raids back in the core systems of the Alliance. Without much choice, Sam joined. For the next 16 years, Sam served as an anti-slave operator at the Local, Shanxi, and Skyllian Clusters. Sam, feeling dissatisfied with the Alliance military as a whole, joined the Democratic Military Movement with other disgruntled veterans. Their demands? Collective bargaining for soldiers, an end to censorship and intimidation within the military, the stopping and abolition of mental and physical cruelty in military brigs, correctional custodies, and basic training, higher wages equal to the federal standard, end of glorification of war, abolition of court-martial and non-judicial punishment systems, among a massive list of other demands. In short time, Sam became a vocal speaker for the Movement, and also quickly became forcibly discharged from the military. This would be the start of Sam's political career. In an effort to silence the man, the Alliance military canceled all benefits to Sam as a veteran and marked him on a blacklist. Inturn, Sam became starved of financial support and was forced to take on multiple jobs to ensure a basic living. Early on, Sam took plenty of odd jobs to support himself. Noted by Sam himself, he took on culinary jobs primarily and quickly picked up his cooking skills from there. He also earned an affinity for cleaning as a janitor too, something that resulted from his time as a dish and mop-cleaner in kitchens before he was allowed to take more serious culinary duties. In between his jobs, Sam heavily involved himself in the Systems Alliance Socialist Party and the Democratic Military Movement, advocating for radical policies against current mainstream discussion. Later, Sam became known for his anti-Cerberus speeches and aggressive rhetoric against human supremacists and the Alliance military on the Extranet and more commonly out in public affairs. Generated credits from his new found exploits in the political realm allowed Sam to pursue his own programs, most famous is his War on Poverty Society that gave the poor and homeless, free homes, food, water, and the comforts of modern life for free. Back on his home planet of Rows, Sam built the Bridge Orphanage, primarily taking in alien children and housing alien refugees. At the age of 85, Sam left his position of power to better fit younger candidates, but Bridge Orphanage was still managed by Sam himself. C-Sec provided Sam with a more stable income and better safety overall against the Alliance military aggressive stand against him. Sam applied for C-Sec and quickly became a senior officer in anti-trafficking operations, and he would use his paid vacations to advocate for his beliefs. As of now, we have reason to believe that he is on the planet of Rows, which is currently engulfed in a civil war.” - Psychologist Adam Will.

[u][b]Notoriety:[/b][/u] “Sam has a large footprint behind him. First, he was a slave captured in a raid at a young age. He worked until an anti-slave militia freed him. Sam then joined this anti-slave militia and began his exploits as a freedom fighter in the Terminus system. He was captured as a POW by the Systems Alliance, mistaken as a slaver himself. Sam, for one reason or another, joined the Marines on his merits of his former job as an anti-slave operator, and helped to resist various slave raids on stations and planets. Later, Sam opted out of the military to pursue a political life in the Systems Alliance Socialist Party. Using his funds, Sam formed the War on Poverty Society and quickly became a heavy anti-cerberus demonstrator and speaker. He even opened and ran an orphanage that still stands today. Sam then left his position of power to a younger candidate and joined C-Sec. Sam used his paid vacations to take visits to his orphanage on the planet of Rows.” - Unknown Extranet User Post.
