He also has made it a point to be unfailingly polite to Bartenders in every club he goes to. He also tips them very well. Nobody in the Chantry knows why he does this.

House:A 2-bedroom apartment which is very stylish, and somewhat lifeless as Sam is rarely here. He also possesses numerous "safehouses" with ready stashes of guns,coke,and cash. The apartment is also home to an Italian Coffin that is being used as a coffee table. for some inexplicable reason this coffin is a node.

Library:Hidden behind a false wall in a closet is a semi large library of disparate materials all concerned with the study of Demonology.

Mentor:Considers Jerome to be his mentor. Chantry: Les Innocents

Quintessence source:The coffin mentioned above.

Magickal style :Perverted hermetic with satanistic touches.

 Story: Daryl Cussler was a bad kid. He did bad things. He was a bad seed. He was a typical 'Burbs kid, bored,looking for cheap thrills and cheap drugs. He and his running buddies got into Satanism and eventually found that you could intimidate people and thrill underage girls with the mystique. It was inevitable really that they should meet up with those freaks from the Children of Antichrist. Daryl and his homies joined up. Some cracked up. some O.Ded. Some really liked it. Sam the Cham(as he now began calling himself) really liked it. it appealed to his dark nature in all the worst ways. Casual Sex,Drugs,Rock,Violence and any other perversity you could name. and Sam liked it fine....Until he saw his first Demon. Then it all came apart.

See he never really believed in any of that shit. it was a rude Awakening to say the least.

Sam lives a double life now. on the surface he's still the same as ever. a low class gigolo with pretensions to mystick power. a sex addict and kind of immature and petty. he's also manipulative and something of a coward. to potential bedmates he seems smooth and crafty but eventually cold and uncaring. However, under the surface. Lies a very scared young man willing to do or say anything to keep safe from the real dark forces.

While none of his Chantrymates knows the whole story, Some have intuited what is really going on and they figure that they can protect him. Sam, for his part, has shown time and time again that he knows what side his bread is buttered on. While his tireless reindeer games tend to get on everyone's nerves he does support the chantry when push comes to shove.

Make no mistake. Sam is an olympic caliber scumbag. His sole saving grace is that he's seen the face of true big evil and he realizes he's not it. His cool pose is just that, a pose. If there is one thing that most of his chantrymates are thankfull for it is that he knows when to lay off and occasionally knows how to get things rolling when a good time is desperately needed. His knowledge of Demonolgy has also occasionally paid off handsomely.
