Character Description
Physical form
-
Sam can transform between human form and takir/nemato form. With the human form you know what to expect but his other form is quite bizarre.
- Nemato:
First of all a "nemato" is a creature from my Albion universe that's based on nematoida, a parasitic worm. In Albion they can be as long as anaconda and can tangle themselves into the rough shape of other creatures, somewhat like stick figures.
In Sam's case he's the roundwork variety anisakis which is a parasite of fish, which often transfers disease into people when they eat raw fish meat. The roundworm type in Albion is coated in hairs which they can weave to create a shell similar to a furry cushion in consistency. Combined with the stickfigure making ability they can immitate the form of certain animals especially since they can bind them to make more sold shapes such as claws, horns, hooves, antlers, beaks, scales or feathers. In Sam's cast the form he chose was that of a Takir.
Sam can shift his narrow threadlike body around within the cushion shell to avoid penetrating attacks and in his case the woven fabric-like shell is so strong it can resist cuts unless they have a lot of force behind them and Sam isn't pushed away by it. Not to mention having a cushion-like shell around you obviously absorbs a lot of blunt force. He also has a skull built from the hair that can withstand huge amounts of force such as a ton of bricks falling on it.
- Takir:
The takir are an extra terrestrial race from my Albion universe based on the now extinct north American takin. The American takin has some traits of the Chinese variety but more closely resembles the north American mountain goat. Takin are descended from a transitional stage of evolution between goats and antelope and so share features from both families such as expert climbing ability and tough scratch-resistant skin.
In Albion the "soldier" and "civilian" varieties have the build of the animal but they can perform actions like a more anthropomorphic creature such as standing on their hind legs and using their hoof digits like fingers since they have unusual mobility in their shoulders and hips and flexible hooves.
These varieties are also often around human height though there's marked difference in height between sub-race. Due to his dwarvic traits it's unclear which of the two Sam is though he's obviously not the wild variety which are much larger in size and don't have anthropomorphic features.
- Pituitary Dwarfism:
Sam stands just under 3 feet tall which is short even for certain takir sub-races. This is because he has pituitary dwarfism which is different to regular dwarfism in the fact that the body is properly developed however never went through adolescence and so he resembles a child even at adult age.
This doesn't mean that Sam acts like child however so it's obvious from their behavior that they are an adult except at first glance. Their mannerisms, turns of phrase, expressions, flow of speech and interests reflect that of an adult. Even if he pretends to be a child he looks more like an adult pretending rather than being realistic.

World/Setting
Main canon
-
The real person obviously exists in the real world, the character lives in a very similar world to our own but anthropomorphic creatures live in hiding taking human form as a disguise where fictional abilities and powers may exist but have to be kept secret, however Sam can travel to other existences via portals including worlds where anthropomorphic creatures and/or magic powers are accepted as the norm.
Sam's hometown which is never named resides somewhere on Scotland's coastline and consists of a few key locations such as the police station, the small park area, the rolling hills, the occassionally visiting fairground, the cinema, the harbor, The Lounge, which is a nightclub Sam is joint owner with Phil, The HORS Hotel, which is a hotel Sam runs where multiple members of the Sam fandom work, the butchers Sam owns, local shops and markets, Sam's bean farm where his soylent comes from (see items), John's apartments, which is where Sam and numerous other characters in the Sam fandom live, and occassionally aboard the Antigone Maru, which is Sam's cruise ship where Chu works as a waitress.
Side canons
-
Sam has appeared in other settings often with slight changes to his character and/or his name. Those universes don't intersect with the main canon except for when the artist is interacting with their creation. Though baring similarities they should be treated as separate canons to the main vein.
Fan canons
-
Though fan canon universes often take place in universes just like the other canons they are not canon and events that happen in these will not affect events in the other canons even between fan canons unless they are a collaborative work by the authors.
Body
Takir/Nemato form
-
from purely appearance, he's a 3 foot tall pituitary dwarf digitigrade mountain-goat-morph with white fur and black hoof digits and horns. His insides are emerald green including his organs though only the inside of his mouth is visable normally. His iris are also the same color. This is not common for takir or nemato race and so far it's believed to be unique to him. See character description for more details on his physical form.
Human form
-
Though not a pituitary dwarf, his human form is rather short in stature and has a young adult appearance. Of mixed Asian race he has some elements of Chinese and Indian race such as brown skin, brown iris, short black hair, slightly slanted eyes, a slightly shorter nose, large bushy eyebrows and a mild curl to his hair.
Clothing
often a green woolen sweater and black harem pants.
outfit subject to change depending on situation however.
Accessories
Backpack
-
Sam has a green and black backpack he can use to carry items in, most often his laptop, polehammer, some soylent and an extra set of clothes for emergencies.
Contract
-
Sam tends to carry around what he calls an Expendable Contract (see submission description) in case he finds something he wants.
Laptop
-
Sam's trusty 90's laptop may be the size of a thick book but it's designed to be used underwater which is a bonus.
Polehammer
-
Sam has a green and black striped cast iron polehammer with a telescopic pole and cloven hoof hand shaped head. He can use this to extend the reach of his palm skills and switch his stats, reducing his endurance but increasing his applied strength.
Soylent
-
Sam often carries a custom brand of soylent made from the beans on his farm. It has the same nutritional make-up of a person and he can abuse that to unabsorb, undissolve, respawn or create people.
