The eldest son of the Marrok and older brother of Charles Cornick, Samuel 'Sam' Llewellyn Cornick is the third most dominant werewolf in North America. He is a lone wolf and he is mated and married to the Fae Lady Ariana.

He has been a doctor since he was human and is a close friend and former romantic interest of Mercy Thompson, whom he now considers his sister, since her choice as mate was Adam Hauptman.

Ariana true-names him, revealing the names he is and was known by: Samuel Marrokson, Samuel Branson, Samuel Whitewolf, Samuel Swiftfoot, Samuel Deathbringer and Samuel Avenger.[1]

Appearance[]

Samuel has the appearance of a 6+ foot tall twenty-something man in his early to mid 20's. He is in excellent physical shape, has light brown hair, fair skin, and blue eyes. His eyes are deeply set, he has a long nose and a wide mouth.

Samuel's wolf is larger than most and completely snow white with ice blue irises ringed by black.

Personality[]

Samuel is usually kind, caring, and charming which has served him well in his chosen profession as a doctor. He also is known to be one of the few werewolves who truly likes humans.

Samuel has a reputation as being a very patient hunter. He is also fiercely protective of those he is fond of and who are weaker than him. After Mercy left Aspen Creek Samuel left the pack and moved to Texas where the events sent him in a downward spiral that continued until he was reunited with the love of his life, Ariana.

History[]

Samuel was born when Bran Cornick was still human.

Bran and Samuel were forcibly turned into werewolves by Bran's mother, the Cornick Witch. They were held as her captives until Bran's wolf turned berserker and killed the witch.

Samuel remained with his father most of the time, first in seclusion in Wales, later he joined Bran in the New World.

When Mercy was 16 years old, Samuel wanted to marry her, because he hoped that she could give him children whom he would not outlive because they might be born werewolves like his brother, Charles. Bran - who wanted to protect Mercy - told her about Samuel's true intentions, so Mercy left Samuel and Aspen Creek.

In Wild Sign, he entrusts his and Ariana's daughter to his half-brother Charles and Charles' mate Anna to protect her. If the fae found out the girl is a maker (capable of making great artifacts), it would be a game changer to them, so the child is safer if no one knows she exists.

Books[]

Moon Called

Samuel doctors Adam Hauptman when he arrives at Aspen Creek, and then accompanies Mercy and Adam to the tri-cities as a more dominant wolf to keep Adam in line as he heals. When Marsalia invites Mercy to the Seethe, Sam goes with her as a protector. Afterwards, Samuel becomes Moonstruck, but even in that state he does not harm Mercy, proving that his wolf views her as their mate. At the end of the book, Mercy chooses to date Adam, but Samuel chooses to remain in the Tri-cities as Mercy's roomate, and try life as a lone wolf for a while.

Powers & Abilities[]

Witchborn: From birth Samuel has been a witch and as such is capable of using magic which manipulates the spirit and will of beings. He does not use this power often, if at all, as he is untrained and because of his experiences with his grandmother, but it was noted by the same grandmother that the gift was strong in him and by Adam, that the three most dominant werewolves in North America are witchborn.

Shifting: As a werewolf Samuel is capable of changing shape from wolf to human and back.

Strength: As a werewolf Samuel is strong enough to lift a piano if he balances it right.

Speed: Samuel is faster than any normal human in his human skin and faster than any wolf in his wolf skin, though not quite cheetah speed.

Regeneration: Samuel can heal any damage done to him as long and silver and witchcraft are not involved, as werewolves have been known to grow back limbs. This also keeps him from aging past the age of twenty-five.

Dominance: Samuel can command and control the wolves that are of lesser dominance than him.

Endurance: Samuel is able to take more punishment than a human due to his healing abilities and and the willpower of the wolf.

Senses: His senses of smell, hearing, and sight approach that of a wolf, in even his human shape. Being a wolf only heightens these senses.
