Sam Douglas
Protagonist
Sam was born Samantha Douglas, but decided she liked the shortened version of the name better when she was 5 and stuck with it. She has noticed as well that her written theories tend to realize stronger initial adoption then her fellow woman academics. She takes a certain perverse pleasure in the sometimes spoken, sometimes not, reaction of, "you're a woman," when people meet her for the first time.

Dark blonde, though she had been known to color it on occasion in her youth. These days, she has more important issues to address, though it might not be difficult to convince her to give it another go were the right person to suggest it.
Sam is motivated by discovery first and foremost. She is a leading research into the nature of the material.
Sam is a brilliant researcher and academic on the properties of the crystalline material scatter throughout the archipelago. Her research has lead her to theorize that the crystalline material is - to some degree - aware and intelligent. This is a dramatic shift from current thinking that the material is merely chemically reactive to certain stimuli, the true nature of which is unknown. Her suggestion that this material is intelligent was met with tremendous ridicule in the academic community. Her position in Strykere was secured only through her unique contacts and position in the Arbas Gaelith government.
Sam is also an above-average swing dancer and a talented mechanical designer.
Sam was born in the Arbas Gaelith capitol. Her father identifies as Gaelian and her mother as Arban, so she has insight into both sides. She personally identifies as Gaelian. Her well-born family provided her with numerous inroads into the political elite, which is how she eventually gained support for her research on Strykere .
