Trainer Profile
Character Name: Sami Cruz
Nickname: Sam, Fish
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Trainer Class: Fisher
Height: 5'8"
Weight: 152 lbs
Hair Color & Style: Sami has long black hair that he keeps in a ponytail. He has recently dyed it green.
Eyes: Sami has dark brown eyes that anyone rarely sees because he tends to always wear a pair of glasses over them. There's nothing particularly unique about them, though his eyebrows are considered thicker than normal. It's not too thick to be considered unattractive, if only thick enough that if he were a girl, he wouldn't need to put on anything over them. His sister has the same thickness for her eyebrows, which is an advantage for her that Sami could never understand. Those who consider themselves lucky enough to catch a glimpse of Sami's often-concealed eyes are often conflicted as to whether they contain edges of seafoam green or not.
Clothing/Accessories: Sami prefers to wear clothes he can easily take off during summer and spring like his white shorts and the zippered, sleeveless hoodie that most people who knowhim have come to associate with his general look. He is never seen without a pair of glasses and his patented waterproof watch. In colder weather, as is the case of fall and winter, Sami wears long-sleeved, hooded coats in the darker shades of blue and green. Outside of his usual fishing gear, the things he can consider his favored belongings include a notebook of filled with his "research" notes, vials of magikarp scales, seaweed, and even tentacool stingers, and a glass bottle of an unidentified slime that he managed to scoop up on the beach on a whim. He's still trying to figure out what it is, though it's most likely just remnants of a Grimer's slime. Interestingly, his "research" notes contain several doodles of a girl with flowing red hair and almond eyes.
General Appearance: Whenever he can, Sami always prefers to be as bare as he can from the waist-up, as he always prefer to be around bodies of water he can swim and fish in, anyway. He works out daily to ensure that he's always in top condition for swimming and fishing. Most people find it hard to figure out what Sami's thinking just by looking at him because of his forever-neutral expression. During rare occasions when something affects him too much that he can't maintain that expression, a small smirk or scowl would usually be found on the edge of his mouth for a few seconds. Sami doesn't have tattoos but he has a scar over his right eye from a fishing accident way back when.
Hometown: Southwind Seaport, Kroy
Personality:
Sami has always been a curious little bugger. even as a child, he’d wander off away from the rest of his peers, whether physically or mentally, always drawn to the bigger mysteries of life and the world. While he does appear cold and distant at times, more because of his terrible social skills than anything really, at his core, he just wants to better the current state of things, believing that there is always a much better way of doing things or living life than what is available to everyone at present. Sami believes that things are just as they are right now because everyone has settled for things as they are. If he can just take that one step further, and he will every chance he gets, then he can always find ways to improve, even if that means he has to mess around with the fundamental forces of life.
Having lived most of his life close to the ocean, Sami has witnessed and experienced the vastness and the greatness of the deep unknown. Massive water pokemon have always been one of his most sacred fascinations, and he believes that they hold the potential for the progress that he obsesses about on a daily basis. Humans, on the other hand, have so much creativity and imagination that could easily advance civilization if they weren’t so caught up in useless things like politics or brief romantic ventures. Sami believes the secret to efficient and effective growth and progress lies in the marriage of these two sides of the coin. He just needs to figure how to, well, marry them.
Speaking of romantic ventures, Sami has never experienced anything of the sort, always quick to shoot such ideas down because romance is “an inefficient distraction that only leads to heartbreak or stagnation.” It’s his weird way of keeping himself out of harm’s, well, way. He believes he personally has nothing to hold someone’s interest for so long, so he’s not worth the time or effort and neither is romance involving him. Still, Sami is not that apathetic, and he’s had several secret crushes here and there. He has her personal standard of what attracts him, but he will never willingly share that information with anyone.
History:
Sami and his younger sister named Samantha were born to a sailor father and a chef mother, the latter of which retired after having Sami to take care of him full-time. Their family also moved from Isda to Godai right after Sami’s birth. Although Sami's parents were originally from Tihimik, Isda, which means he can speak a bit of Isdan and Ahi on the side, he himself was born in Southwind Seaport, Kroy.
During his childhood in Southwind Seaport, Sami ran off with his dumb friends on one of their fathers’ boats and came upon a forgotten cove that he can no longer remember where, though he did almost die when a Gyarados who called it home mistakenly thought of him and his friends as attackers. While his so-called friends were quick to get the heck out of there, Sami was too obsessed, rather curious, about a giant fork (spoiler alert: it was nothing special) within that cove that he almost got eaten alive. Luckily for him, the Gyarados didn’t actually eat him, most likely because he was still too tiny that time to be anything close to tasty, and instead “swallowed” him to deposit him elsewhere. This event sparked Sami’s belief that massive water pokemon were more useful than threatening.
Ever since then, Sami has gone out of his way to explore as much of the ocean as he can, studying and sailing on several ships that even stored equipment he has never seen before. His curiosity piqued, Sami always tried his best to bring some of these things home, borrowing them from his mentors, but whenever he does, he found out that it always takes him quite a bit longer than he’d always expect to figure out what they actually do. There was only one solution for that, he thought to himself: Study some more.
Sami’s obsession with massive water pokemon and the secrets of the depths in general has only grown over the years. With each step he takes, he makes sure that he takes them towards the path he wants, the only path he has decided to pursue, the path of adaptation.
