Biography
Samos comes highly recommended as both a gunner and a sailor, having been repeatedly blind-jobbed for her Gunnery expertise. Despite the fact that Samos can load four cannons in one round and reverse-circuit with the best gunners in the Midnight Ocean, her beloved ultimate still evades her -- but only on the Cerulean Ocean. Samos achieved ultimate guns on the Meridian Ocean in December 2012.

Many know the darling Samos by her alternate character name, Lexicon/Karpathos.

Samos has partially retired from the game, returning regularly from September to April so that she can blockade and play politics.

Factoid
Samos loves all things Greek. She can read/write Ancient Greek; she follows a Greco-Roman pantheology; and she corrects announcers on TV and people IRL when they mispronounce both Greek and Latin words -- usually from the other end of a Nerf Gun.
