General Personality: Nice, if a bit distant, always there to mend a wound or shoot a monster between the eyes. Doesn't make a lot of friends, but when she does, she is fiercely loyal, to the point that it is her fatal flaw.
Inner Personality: Anxious and guilty for running away when she was 9, abandoning her family. Sam is full of regret and self loathing, but always puts on an at least semi-happy face.
Fondest Memory: Apollo showing her the way to camp. It was storming, and she was in the middle of New Hampshire. Suddenly, the clouds parted and created a path of sunlight all the way to Camp Half-Blood. She was claimed almost as soon as she got there.
Biggest Regret: Abandoning her family and her heritage. Her parents had renamed her Faithful Star when she was 3 because of how loyal her nature was, but she had left them anyway.
Secret: No one knows where Sam is really from or her true name. The only evidence of her Native American background is her bone structure and the single feather she wears in her hair, something her grandfather gave her. Everyone thinks she ran away from a farm in Wyoming, and that her name s Samantha Johnson. She never like being Native American and always felt oppressed and like she wasn't normal. She wan't even allowed to leave the reservation. So, she ran away when she was 9 and hasn't contacted her family since.

History
Brief Biography: Samantha was born in South Dakota, on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. Her family was very highly regarded on the Rez, as her great great great great great grandfather was Crazy Horse, a great warrior of her tribe. However, this just made her feel even more out of place as she got slightly older.
When she was a toddler, Sam wasn't really aware of the differences between her and other people. She lived with her mother and grandparents in a small home surrounded by horses. Next door lived three other children around her age. She displayed such a bright, loyal personality that her mother renamed her Hantaywee Wichapi, or Faithful Star, when she was 3.
However, by the time she was 5, Sam began to notice that she didn't have a father like the other kids, and that she wasn't like the kids on TV either. When she was 6, she was hit by a car while visiting the nearby Badlands National Park, resulting in a concussion, bruised ribs, and a shattered patella. After that, Sam wasn't allowed off the Reservation. The once happy child grew resentful of her differences and ran away when she was 9, which eats at her to this day. When she was 12, she began dying her hair blonde and going by the name Samantha Johnson. If they asked, she told people she had lived on a ranch in Wyoming.
How he/she came to be at camp: Apollo gave her a path of light.
How many years at camp: 3
Present Life: She is mainly a medic, but she is in the front lines as much as she's needed to protect the camp.
