Sumarry
Samuel Parris, or also known with the alias Samuel/Sam, is an ex soldier who now uses his old skills to protect the others. He is the son of Anderson Parris, a math teacher and Johanna Parris, a journalist. Samuel is also the younger brother of Olivia Parris, a half deaf woman who works as a secretary of a famous businessman.

He is the husband of the now deceased Marina 'Marry' Parris and a best friend of Ann Rose, who later develops a romantic relationship with her.

Appearance
Samuel is a man in his late thirties, thought he looks a bit younger from his age. He has a medium built and tall with muscular body.

He has messy, wavy black hair with bangs framing his face and the rest are pulled into the right side with some gathered between his eyes, and bright green eyes. One striking feature of him is that he has two scars on his face, which he got from traumatic accident when he was a child. The first scar runs diagonally from his right cheek, to the bridge of his nose, and ends on the left side of his forehead. Another one runs from his left jaw and ends just a little bit below his left eye.

He wears a long sleeved white shirt which collar is unbuttoned, a neatly tied black tie, a black vest, a long black pants, and a knee length black leather boots. Over his attire, he wears a long black trench coat which belt isn't tied. When he is on a bodyguarding mission, he wears a black sunglasses and a black hat with a dark grey hatband, he does it in order to keep his face stay hidden.

Outside of his usual attire, he wears more casual clothes and a pair of glasses with thin white frame. It is revealed that he wears it because it is a memento of his deceased wife Marry, not because of his myopia.

When he was younger, he used to wear a school uniform consisting of long sleeved white shirt, black tie, black pants, black shoes, and a black suspender.

Personality
Samuel is notably calm and collective, not panicked easily when facing an enemies that attempt to attack the person he protected. He doesn't speak a lot to the point some claims that he is "a man of few words", but in reality he always proves what he is going to say through his actions, because according to him, actions are more important than sweet words. He also very confident on his skills, but doesn't talk much about them near people.

Due to his traumatic experiences, he keeps all of his problems to himself. He tends to work alone and doesn't trust people easily, resulting his rash and foul mouth attitude. Samuel can also be very impatient and gets angry easily; whenever someone made him impatient, angry, or disagrees with him, he will resorts into violence, often beating them down and throwing tantrum. Only few people can calm him, for example Marry and Ann, otherwise they just need to give him a plenty of time to calm himself down.

He can also be merciless, showing no remorse or guilt towards the people he killed in order to keep his clients safe. At some time, he even admitted that he enjoyed the sights of blood splattering and the faces of helpless people who can't do nothing but hoping they'd be put out of their misery, hinting a sadistic side of him.

When Samuel was a children, he was very introvert and antisocial. He was suspicious about others who tried to come near him, mostly because of his PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). He was paranoid around people, often seen biting his nails to beyond nub point and scribbling "help me" on his notebook. But the place he very afraid near him was trains, where he left behind with his scars and his sister who became deaf totally.

Despite his introvert and unstable mood swings, Samuel is a kind and faithful person, refusing to leave someone behind, one example he breaks an order from his commander just to save Ann, who was kidnapped that time. He also very polite towards his clients and people who he trusts the most. When one of them died or gravely wounded, he immediately blames himself, proving that Samuel cares a lot of people, thought he never shows it clearly.
