Character Name: Sam Winchester
Character Fandom: Supernatural
Brief character summary: The youngest son born of John and Mary Winchester, Sam was only six months when his mother was murdered by the demon Azazel in his nursery. Not that they knew that at the time. He and his older brother, Dean, grew up with their father obsessing over hunting down the thing that killed their mother. Being exposed to the entire ‘demon hunting’ deal when he was only eight years old; Sam didn’t want a thing to do with what was “The family business”. He just wanted to be normal. Sam ‘abandoned’ his family, going to college. There he met Jessica Moore and he swore that the ‘normal’ sort of life couldn’t get any better.

Instead of getting better, it got worse. His older brother broke into their apartment, succeeding on getting Sam to go on one more hunt with him and search for their missing father. The hunt going off without a hitch. Finding their father? Not so much, but Sam returned back to Palo Alto instead of going with Dean to come in contact with the thing that haunted his father for years. His girlfriend, Jess, pinned to the ceiling of their apartment. Her blood dripping down on him before flames engulfed her. Luckily, Dean managed to save his younger brother. But Jess was a victim of the demon. He went traveling with his big brother, hunting, and more importantly trying to find the demon that murdered his mom and his girlfriend.

They found their father…only to have him taken away once again. Only this time? It was after their face off with the demon, Dean discovering from John that there was something planned for the younger of the two but keeping it to himself. Instead letting the guilt that his dad offered himself up so that he could live. Sam just kept by his big brother’s side until he discovered what was up…that there was plans for him; for some upcoming demonic war. He tried desperately after that to prove that he was good that he wasn’t a demon or evil or whatever the Yellow Eyed Demon thought until he was taken…brought to an abandoned town and pitted against other psychic children chosen by Azazel to find the strongest.

It came down to two.

Sam and Jake. But at the last moment, Sam let Jake live. Heading over to see his big brother before he was stabbed in the back only a few feet away from being saved. His older brother holding him as he took his last breath. After that? Dean pulled what their father had done for him by making a deal to live up to a year before being dragged to hell. Just so Sam could live. Instead of taking his brother’s advice to rest…Sam, now a colder person, insisted on ending this once and for all. Having a showdown with the man who killed him and the demon that made their life a living hell. Sam killed Jake even while he begged to live…Dean killed Azazel after the spirit of their father held him back.

Sam discovered about Dean’s deal he made. That he had died and Dean had brought him back in exchange for his soul. So now? Now he has been trying to discover a way to save his big brother from the fate that he has resigned himself too.


Lesson character needs to learn: Possibly realizing that not everything is something he can control. Sam is hardheaded enough to think that there’s a solution to everything and that if he tries well enough to overcome it he will. In episode 3.11 this was pushed to the brink by the Trickster who tried to show him that he was (possibly) going to fail in saving Dean. I want to further that by having him realize that without it just being his subconscious mind that is telling him that he’s not okay. That he might not succeed and push him to the edge of desperation in that realization.
