Samantha James 6/?travelistaaSeptember 30 2011, 17:15:47 UTC
4. Personality: There are a few key words to note about Ms. James in regards to her personality. She’s short tempered, moody, self-involved, impulsive, impatient, vain (in regards to her work), and brilliant. Samantha knows she’s smart, smarter than you, in fact - and has no problem voicing that or showing it to you, either. She hates to be proved wrong, and will scratch and claw to find any scrap of information, some minute detail that defies all other logic and proves you to be incorrect. Her decisions are sometimes made rashly with little regard to the consequences, and while sometimes this doesn’t work out, the vast majority of the time she’s right - and that’s what drives most people crazy. She’s independent, and doesn’t particularly like having to rely on anyone else for anything. She lives alone and pays her own bills and would rather starve for a week than ask her parents or someone else for help of any kind. She’s a go-getter, and isn’t afraid to reach out and snatch what she thinks should be hers for the taking. She doesn’t accept anything less than perfection in her life and her relationships, and if she doesn’t consider someone up to par for the task at hand, be it on a dig, in the lab, or in life in general - she is quick to write someone off as incompetent or ignorant.
Despite her flaws however, Samantha can have a magnetic personality - her enthusiasm and passion for her work tends to make people gravitate towards her despite her rough edges and demanding nature. She’s compelling in the sense that she gets things done no matter the consequences, and has an unbridled love for all things ancient and old, be it language, artifacts, or a culture. She’s hard to work with, and at times is bad-tempered and catty, but she shows an immeasurable amount of respect and awe at all things archaeological. Her soft side shows when she’s absorbed in a find, delicately brushing away specks of sand from a two thousand year old piece of bone, or carefully extracting a vase fragment from a tomb that has been in situ longer than modernized Christianity.
She’s the type of woman that can survive even the toughest of circumstances alone (AKA waking up in the middle of the night to find you are not alone in your tent and your company is NOT the handsome Brazilian you met at the cantina but instead a hungry Jaguar staring you down - she started carrying a gun after that) and has the ability to come back even after the most hellish situations. In contrast to this tough exterior, Samantha is also able to play the role of a female perfectly if need be. Donning a little black dress and some heels, Samantha manages to pull herself together quite well, despite not really being what society would consider beautiful.
5. Previous Game Developments: N/a
6. Appearance: Standing at 5’10”, Samantha is tall and blonde (sometimes, anyway - this is subject to change depending on where she happens to be working), and extremely curvy. Samantha has never been rail thin like other girls, and nor is she any kind of supermodel. Her features are strong and angled, and while not a beautiful woman by normal standards, Samantha has an exotic look that tends to draw people in despite unusual features. Her hips are wide and her legs are shapely, and there’s generally a set of tinted glasses resting on the bridge of her nose. The combination of her English mother and Spanish/Italian father caused a wide array of unusual characteristics from her tanned skin that burns so easily to her expressive dark, Italian eyes and full lips.
