Appearance: Samuel Vickers is a former member of the S.A.S, and as such as a relatively athletic build. His eyes are a stormy grey color and his hair is a pale blonde. Samuel has several scars across his body due to his time in active combat, mostly across the arms and legs, one scar in particular runs along his left cheek, a souvenir from CQC training when he was practicing knife drills with his commanding officer. Samuel is of average height, topping out at about five foot six. Samuel's taste in clothing is rather casual for a former special forces operative, he is usually seen wearing a pair of black denim jeans, tan leather work boots, and a grey or black short sleeve shirt. He also has a preference for bomber jackets, to the extent that he had one made with Kevlar weave when he got his first paycheck, the jacket is made of sheepskin and is a light brown color, the Kevlar weave also makes it resistant to pistol calibers up to 9 mm.
Personality: Samuel is rather reserved, giving off a sense of control even in the most difficult of circumstances. This is partly due to his extensive military and police training, which have given him a great amount of confidence in his abilities. The confidence does not manifest as arrogance however, Samuel is rather soft spoken and humble, downplaying his accomplishments as simply part of the job. Samuel is known for having a dry wit, often making a snarky comment about the abundance of absurd and near impossible things that his job presents him with on a daily basis. Samuel is also known for having a somewhat macabre hobby, he enjoys collecting knives and short blades from around the world, he has over 150 knives that range from old WWII Bowie knives to Indian Kukri's. Despite his dry sense of humor and somewhat cool demeanor, Samuel is, at heart, a decent man. If a person needs help, or is suffering in any way, he will be one of the first to help.
History: Samuel Vickers was born into a middle class family in London, England. Samuel was rather solitary growing up, preferring to keep to himself as opposed to having a large group of friends, the few friends he did make however, were extremely important to him. This often led to him getting into fights on his friends behalf, on one occasion he was actually arrested for smashing a local bully in the back of the head with a large rock after he stole a doll from one of his friends.
Over time, Samuel learned to channel his aggression into more constructive pursuits, he joined a boxing league at a nearby gym and at the age of 15 he placed first in a local boxing championship. When Samuel graduated from High-School at age 17, he enrolled in the Royal Marines, where he showcased a special talent for close quarters combat, especially with combat knives and other bladed weapons. After serving in the Royal Marines for two years, Samuel took part in the Special Air Services selection, and was one of only 20 men and women to make the cut. Samuel served in the S.A.S for four years, and served in several classified counter-terrorism operations.
At age 24, Samuel was transferred from the S.A.S to the at the time newly militarized United Kingdom branch of the NPD's Net-Ops division. Samuel served in Net-Ops for five years before his wanderlust got the better of him, he requested a transfer to another branch outside of the country, and the NY-NPD, after seeing his qualifications, immediately granted his request.

His gear, aside from providing the standard amount of ballistic protection and storage for a variety of ammunition in it's various pouches and pockets, includes a M-13 special operations gas-mask. This mask is a newer model that was adopted by the S.A.S only within the last year or so, so the manner in which Samuel acquired it is a mystery. The mask has integrated infrared and night-vision lenses that allow the wearer to see in low light or poor weather conditions, these lenses are powered by two small power cells that provide approximately 12 hours of power, these cells can be removed and charged with any standard power outlet. If the battery dies completely, it takes 4 posts for them to recharge completely.
