Gender: Male Height: 6'4" Weight: 220 Body Type: Athletic/Muscular Eyes: Hazel/Green Hair: Brown - Kind of shaggy, sometimes more than others. Sexuality: Straight Personal Style: It's all about comfort. Jeans, t-shirts, flannel shirts, hoodies. Comfortable shoes or boots maybe. Nothing fancy. Sam does tend to let his hair get a bit shaggy and Dean gives him nothing but grief for it. Unique Features: Tattoo of Solar Pentacle (anti-demon possession/protection from evil) on chest above his heart. Best Feature: Sam doesn't think about that much. But, He has a lot of good features, his eyes, chest, shoulders, arms. Nice ass. Shall I go on? Worst Feature: Mostly being a freak with demon blood. Sometimes his hair. Face Claim: Jared Padalecki
Powers: Psychic, telekinetic and precognitive abilities. Can excise demons with his mind while not killing the host. Other: Trained since he was a child in hunting demons. He can fight hand to hand. Good with practically all weapons. Knows pretty much everything there is to know about the Supernatural and how to fight it.
Sam possesses many abilities that are frowned upon by law, including, but not limited to: lock picking, computer hacking, disguised conning, and car jacking.
Sam commands vast knowledge of the supernatural and is considered an "encyclopedia of weirdness". He is proficient in reading and recalling spells written in Latin, which can be used to exorcise, summon or vanquish demons. More often than Dean,
Sam is stuck with the job of researching the supernatural for their hunts. He has a great sense of direction and time, being able to find a vampire's nest while blindfolded by keeping track of the time and the turns of the car. Due to these traits, it can be said that Sam is more intellectually driven than his brother.
Sam has shown immunity to certain demonic powers. Sam can sense the Supernatural, he describes this as a "vibe" where he's able to get impressions or a sense of supernatural presences.
Sam is a very smart guy and mostly approaches things from an intellectual angle. Though since Dean's death and re-emergence from Hell Sam has changed somewhat. While Dean was gone Sam became reckless and uncaring which is very un-Sam like. Sam likes to know a lot about something before he jumps into it so, he is always doing research. Dean is the one that jumps head first into things and Sam is the counter balance to that most of the time. Sam tends to be more serious getting a bit frustrated with his brother's antics though he has learned to deal with it for the most part. Rolling his eyes, pouting and sighing a lot.

Season 1
Sam is 22 and about to enter Law School, when Dean turns up unexpectedly at his apartment in Palo Alto. The two have not spoken for some time. But their father is missing, and Dean asks Sam to help find him. After a weekend of searching, Sam returns to the apartment he shares with Jessica only to find that she has been killed in the same manner as his mother.
This spurs Sam to embark on a journey to find their missing father and get vengeance on the demon. While John Winchester is missing, he occasionally contacts the boys to leave them new missions to complete. The boys fend off mystical creatures such as the Woman in White, the wendigo, folklore's Bloody Mary, and shapeshifters. Through these missions, Sam begins experiencing episodes of precognition and once displays telekinesis.
The season finale concludes with Sam, Dean, and their father John escaping from a clash with The Demon in Salvation, Iowa. While Sam is driving the Winchesters to a hospital after Dean and John were hurt, a truck crashes into them, causing massive damage to Dean's Impala with the Winchesters inside.
Season 2
In the beginning of the second season, Sam takes a more active role in the hunting. He tells Dean that this is what their dad would have wanted him to do. The Demon's plans for Sam are still unknown. Dean and Sam meet with three people that John once knew: Ellen Harvelle, her daughter Jo, and their computer genius associate Ash. They assist the brothers in their hunting. In the episode "Simon Said", Sam displays immunity to Andy Gallagher's power of mind control. He is also immune to the demonic sulfur virus in the episode "Croatoan".
Since "Hunted", Sam has learned what his father told Dean moments before his death: that the Demon plans to cause Sam to become evil and use him and "children like him" as soldiers in an upcoming war. Dean was told that if he could not save Sam, he would have to kill him. Sam is convinced that he must save as many people as he can in order to change his destiny, as he drunkenly states in "Playthings".
In the episode "Born Under a Bad Sign", Sam is possessed by the same demon responsible for Meg's possession in Season 1. It becomes clear that if the time comes for Dean to shoot his brother, Dean would not be able to do so.
In the episode "What Is and What Should Never Be", Sam and Dean aren't close in the alternate reality created by a djinn. Neither Sam nor Dean had ever hunted, and Jessica is Sam's fiancee.
The first episode of the season finale of season two, All Hell Breaks Loose, Part 1, Sam is trapped in a haunted abandoned town in South Dakota with "Others" of his kind. It was revealed that there is demon's blood in Sam and his mother Mary Winchester knew who the demon was, much to Sam's surprise. He is stabbed by a soldier named Jake and dies in his older brother's arms just as he and fellow hunter Bobby arrive to the rescue. In the second episode of the season finale, Dean made a deal with a "Crossroads Demon" to deliver himself to Hell in one year, in exchange for Sam's life. Sam doesn't know of what happened while he was dead, and is in fact unaware he was ever dead in the first place. In the following battle to prevent Jake and the "Yellow-Eyed Demon" from unleashing a demonic army, Sam shoots and kills Jake, unloading over ten bullets into his body. This is the first time Sam kills a man, or someone that isn't a demon, and seems to show no remorse. The "Yellow-Eyed-Demon" questions Dean if he is sure that what he brought back in Sam is 100% pure, a statement that will probably be elaborated on during the third season. Sam figures out that he was dead, and tells Dean he'll get him out of the deal he made, no matter what.
Season 3
Throughout Season 3 Sam's quest is to find the loophole in Dean's contract with the Crossroads Demon in order to save Dean from going to Hell. For a while, Sam is quietly and fondly exasperated about Dean's hedonistic tendencies, but Dean's borderline suicidal behavior is bothering him a lot. Sam tries everything in his power to save Dean, he even goes as far as to summon the Crossroad Demon and shoot her with The Colt.
He receives unlikely help from Ruby, a demon who reveals that not everybody in Hell is opposed to Sam, that in fact, there a demons who are very much behind Sam. Sam also learns, that he holds dubious fame as the "boy-king" or rather "The Anti-Christ", something that brings fellow hunter Gordon Walker to pick up his trail and hunt him down. In the episode 3.07 Fresh Blood Sam kills Gordon using nothing but his own two hands and a wire.
A notable episode is 3.11 Mystery Spot, in which, after having lived through a groundhog-day like setting for over 100 times in which Dean is killed and Sam can't save him, Sam has to fend for his own with Dean in Hell. The episode shows what will become of Sam when Dean goes to Hell - namely a single-minded, dead-inside hull of a person.
To save Dean, Sam even goes as far as to consider using a questionable scientific method which helps a homicidal doctor, Doc Benton to stay "alive" in a Frankenstein-like body.
Ruby, who claims to know a way to help Sam save Dean - but who revealed to Dean that she was lying in episode 3.07 Fresh Blood - is trying throughout the season to get Sam to embrace his demonic powers.
In the season finale, 3.16 No Rest For The Wicked, Sam still hasn't found a way to save Dean, and has to watch, helplessly and powerless, Lilith sick her Hellhounds on Dean and tear him to pieces.
Season 4
Season 4 begins with Dean waking up back in his own body, in his coffin, alive. Four months have passed, and he does not know why he is alive again. He experiences first suspicious, then joyous reunions with Bobby Singer and Sam (and the Impala). He and Bobby Singer try to summon the force that brought him back from Hell, and discover that it was the Angel Castiel, on orders from higher up. Throughout the course of Season 4, Sam's activities while Dean was in Hell are slowly revealed. Sam was in despair after Dean's death, and tried to make a deal with a Crossroads Demon, but no demon would deal with him. He drinks to excess and acts recklessly, he has a death wish, until Ruby makes contact with him and begins to teach him how to use his demon-given powers. Ruby possesses the body of a comatose woman whose soul has already fled. In a short time, Sam and Ruby become lovers, and Ruby is able to shake Sam out of his depression to some extent. Together, they hunt demons and Sam exorcises them and sends them back to Hell using his powers. Sam is overwhelmed when Dean returns from Hell, but the two quickly begin fighting. Castiel informs Dean of Sam's use of his powers, leading up to a minor fallout between the brothers, as Dean tries to get him to stop using them and stop hanging out with Ruby. Sam, who is religious, is delighted to find that angels are helping he and Dean, but is severely disillusioned in "It's the Great Pumpkin, Sam Winchester", when he finally meets Castiel and another angel, Uriel, and the angels attempt to destroy an entire town. Also a shock is that Uriel treats Sam with complete disgust, threatening to kill him as soon as Sam is no longer useful. Sam promises Dean to stop using his abilities, but quickly breaks the promise.
Meanwhile, Dean lies to Sam, claiming he remembers nothing of Hell. But in "Wishful Thinking," he reveals that he does remember, but does not want to tell Sam. Finally, in "Heaven and Hell," Dean reveals the awful truth about Hell to Sam, the four months he was there were like forty years, and Dean was tortured for three-quarters of that time under the ministrations of the demon, Alastair, until he finally agreed to himself become a torturer. He confesses he wished he couldn't feel at all, because thinking of his past actions in Hell is tormenting him.
In "Chris Angel's a Douche Bag," Sam had a short-lived fight with Ruby about his powers. She argued that he shouldn't be going on these meaningless hunts and go "cut the head off the snake." He says "It's not the psychic stuff I have a problem with." which may mean he hasn't revealed everything to Dean about what is going on and why the angels want him to stop. Eventually he relents and is seen leaving with Ruby, saying when she asks him what made him change his mind, that he didn't want to be hunting when he was old.
Season 4 shows a Sam much changed. He's a colder, less emotional person. he blatantly lies to Dean and to the spirit of a young boy, promising him that he can be saved from the Reaper who is there to take him. Whether it's living without Dean for 4 months or his demonic powers that have caused the change is uncertain.
Role Play Sample:
Sam
Sam suddenly stopped as he saw Dean do the same inside the vault. He saw the changed expression on his face and the puff of misty breath and his eyes went wide. Before he could react the heavy vault door slammed shut.
"Damn it! Not again, I'm really getting sick of friggin' ghosts."
Sam tried turning the handle and tugging on the door with no luck. Then he heard a muffled Dean voice coming through the thick door.
"Sam, can you open it from out there?"
Sam rolled his eyes. Like he wouldn't have tried to open the door first thing or something.
"Uh... Yeah Dean sure. I can open it. I just CHOOSE not to at the moment. Jerk."
Sam yelled back. Taking a deep breath and a heavy sigh Sam looked around trying to figure away to get the door open. Then he heard Annali's faint voice come through.
"Do you see that antique cabinet over in the far corner? Inside the top drawer, there is a false bottom, where you'll find a fingerprinting kit. Do you know how to use one? Because I'm thinking maybe you'll have to somehow fool the scanner if you're going to get us out of here."
Sam turned around and looked in the corner. Sure enough there was a rather ornate looking cabinet setting there.
"OK. Yeah I see it, hold on I'm going over to get it."
Yelling back through the door again before he moved to the corner. As he was just about at the cabinet he felt something push against him. He moved forward again, reaching out to open the cabinet and was forcibly pushed backward.
"What the Hell!"
Sam yelled out as he realized what was happening. Great, now the ghost is after me. He thought to himself. Thinking that the ghost didn't want him getting into the cabinet. They had brought salt with them, but a protective circle wouldn't help him right now. He needed to get too the cabinet and the ghost was there keeping him away.
Sam needed something iron, something he could use to force the spirit back while he got into the cabinet. He looked around again and spotted something against the wall. He moved quickly over to it and it looked like and old fireplace tool set. He picked up the poker and it was definitely iron. He shrugged his shoulders. He'd held off a ghost with an iron poker before so maybe it would work again.
Striding back to the cabinet he held the poker out in front of him. He could feel the ghost's energy around him so he kept thrusting out with the poker. He was able to get around the ghost, then walking backward he kept the ghost at bay as he made it to the cabinet. There was no time to be gentle about this now. With one hand keeping the ghost away he opened the top drawer with the other and punched through the bottom of the drawer, breaking it to pieces. A bag fell out onto the floor. Still keeping up the ghost poking he picked up the bag. It was the finger printing kit.
Now he made his way back to the vault door. Fighting off the ghost the whole way. He stopped to pick up the bag of salt he had set down when they first came into the basement. Sam finally made it to the vault and set the bag of salt down.
"Ummmmm, OK. Well... The good news is... I got the finger print kit... The bad news is... I'm fighting off a pretty pissed off ghost."
Sam yelled as loud as he could through the big steel door. Now he just had to figure out how to get the door open. Not even sure if this plan was going to work.
