Sam Cassius's Questionnaire

1. What town or city do you live in? Why do you live there instead of anywhere else? Describe your home.

Link Answered before Sam Cassius's first Contract.

Living somewhere isn't what I would consider in my life. I drift town to town, State to state solving problems. Kansas was where I grew up before my mom died and my dad went on his bender. I don't really have a home, but I do have my car, a nice Buick that'll never let me down. Though, if I am to say I have a home, it'd be the entire country. Personally, there is enough issues around here that it'll be three of my lifetimes before we solve these creatures and figure out why they are doing what they do. So no, I wouldn't want to go anywhere else.

2. How do you get your money right now? What do you spend it on?

I get my cash from helping people with their creatures and making sure that it doesn't get out of hand and the public find out. Other than that, odd jobs and stealing, though only if I have to. The things I spend it on are the things to combat the supernatural; salt, specific pieces of iron, salt rock buckshot, stakes, gasoline, and matches/lighters. The rest goes towards ammunition for my weapons, and the motels that I crash at when I need to stay in town for a bit. Food, drinks, and some goes into clothing when I get covered in the matter of the creatures I handle.

3. Describe your Ambition. What are you striving for? How far would you go to achieve this? Would you kill for it? How close to death would you come for it?

Oh, what is my goal? To get rid of every creature that can and will cause harm in the world. Yeah that's the goal. I know there are too many out there to think that they can't destroy humanity, but some would disagree with me. I'm willing to go the lengths I need in order to handle this; but I don't want to kill anyone; but if they get in the way or try to stop me, I will not hesitate to put them down. Killing isn't the goal though. And death? Death is apart of the job. I could die again and again, and if I am given another chance, I'd die again knowing I am doing the right thing for this world.

4. What was the most defining event of your life (before signing The Contract), and how did it change you?

My mom. I was a baby so my dad told me about this before he passed away, and that could also be it's own moment. I was a baby and she brought me home a little while ago, something of a month or two. But when she was checking on me one night, something came in and gutted her, slaughtered her and my dad was too late to save her. That hung over my head since I was able to understand what he told me. With my dad's death, he was also torn apart by the same beast, I know it to be the same beast.

5. Name and briefly describe three people in your life. One must be the person you are closest to.

My lost brother, Dean, he's probably the one I'm closest to. Ever since Dad passed, he's always been there to pick up the phone if I ever got stuck on a hunt. We travel separately in order to cover more ground, and find what has been hunting down our bloodline for the past 20 or so years. I don't know if it's after him or me, but we'll find out soon enough.

 

Bobby is our go to guy and the whole reason we have access to the databases we need in order to handle what we are doing. Having the police database let's me see what caused deaths and where, as well as when. He keeps both of us informed on what's happening in general vicinity's approximate to our location. If we're coming up on a town with cattle going missing and small children, we know where to hunt next.

 

Kim Jess is a police officer that both Dean and I have run into before. She went to go arrest us before something tragic almost happened, and saw us both in action. That was the day that we split up to cover more around and not to endanger each other. She's been on the burner ever since.

6. How was your childhood? Who were your parents? What were they like? Did you attend school? If so, did you fit in? If not, why not?

Growing up wasn’t exactly normal, to say the least. My parents, John and Margret Cassius, were both deeply involved in hunting, though I didn’t really understand it as a kid. Dad, especially, was all about keeping us safe from the things that go bump in the night, but he didn’t always know how to show love. He was tough on Dean and me, training us to be soldiers. He wanted us to be ready for anything. Mom, well, I didn’t know her for long. I was just a baby when she died. From what I’ve heard, she was kind, strong, and fiercely protective of us.

As for school, I did go, and I tried to fit in. But let’s face it, when your life is filled with strange creatures and your dad drags you all over the country, it’s tough to have a normal childhood. I did okay, but I never truly felt like I belonged.

7. Have you ever been in love? With who? What happened? If not, why not?

Yeah, I've been in love a few times. There was this girl, Jamie Mayor. She was smart, kind, everything I ever wanted. I thought I could have a normal life with her, you know? I was ready to settle down, leave hunting behind, but that was before everything went to hell. I lost her just like my mom, completely torn to bits. It crushed me. After that, I found it hard to open up to anyone. I didn’t want to drag anyone else into this life, especially when I couldn’t guarantee they’d be safe. Love’s complicated, but it’s also something I still think about.
