DESCRIPTION Samuel is a wiry, ashen, putrid-smelling, disgusting little creature with a pallid head, bulging yellow eyes, bloodless white lips, sharp teeth, and a shrill scream, who is obsessed with obtaining the Sword Of Truth . Despite his size (he isn't very tall), Samuel is powerfully strong (stronger than Richard) with big, powerful hands, long, sinewy fingers, and sharp nails. Spaces between his teeth are packed with spongy, gray debris. His heavy breath reeks of rot. Dark patches cover his hairless, waxy head. His feet are as disproportionatley large as his hands and arms. His arms are so long that even as he stands erect, he often casually draws lines and circles in the dirt of the road with his fingers. His belly is round and full. There is no hair on him anywhere, and his skin looks like it hasn't seen sunlight in years. Short dark pants held up with straps is all he wears as he bounds along in his odd, scittering gait. Samuel can speak a basic form of the common language, although his voice is often more of a hissing sound, and his laughter is more of a gurgling sound. Samuel's yellow eyes often change quickly between a taunting grin, greed, fierce hate and wide-eyed fear. They shine like twin lanterns in the dark. From time to time when left alone, Samuel will occasionally snatch up a stick or rock or other item and say, "Mine! Gimme!" to no one in particular, only to soon lose interest and drop his latest find. If given the chance, Samuel will slit the throat of those he dislikes without a second thought. Samuel is the former Seeker Of Truth , the direct predecessor of Richard . He lives in the Agaden Reach with his mistress, the Witch Woman , Shota . He came to her many years before the start of the series, desperate for help, but she could do nothing for him, besides take pity on him. Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander traveled to the Agaden Reach and took the Sword of Truth from Samuel and Shota and brought it with him to Westland . To this day Samuel thinks of the Sword of Truth as his. Samuel bears a number of striking resemblances to Gollum from Lord of the Rings.. |
