Silver

• Sawyl¹⁸
• Samuel Healer⁴⁸
• Samuel Silverheart⁴⁹

Moon Called

• Built like a Chippendales' dancer⁹⁴
• Eyes were deeply set, his nose was too long, his mouth too wide. His coloring in human form was much less striking than his wolf; light blue-gray eyes and brown hair, streaked just a bit from the sun⁹⁴

Blood Bound

• His wide mouth was soft under his long, aristocratic nose²⁰
• Ash brown hair covered his eyebrows²⁰
• Pale blue eyes²⁰
• Grey-blue human eyes⁹⁶

Iron Kissed

• Looked like a person you could trust- something about the hint of humor that lurked in the back of his deep-set eyes and the corner and his mouth⁴¹

Silver Borne

• Tall and rangy¹²

Cry Wolf

• Almost as tall as Charles, his features a rougher version of Bran's. That roughness made them not so bland or young-looking as his father. He was oddly compelling, but not handsome. His ditch-water brown hair was cut carelessly, but somehow he managed to look neat and well dressed anyway⁴⁷

Silver

• His eyes were some shade between noon sky and moonlit waterfall⁴⁷

Werewolf

• Sam doesn't fit in Montana anymore, he can't join a pack without becoming Alpha–something he doesn't want; he's already responsible for all his patients^2007-05-20

Moon Called

• Smells like earth-and-spice musk⁸⁴
• Big, even for a werewolf. His fur was winter white, and his eyes appeared almost the same shade, an icy white-blue, all the more startling for the black ring that edged his iris⁸⁵
• Least volatile male werewolf Mercy had ever met⁹²
• Funny and charming; lightheartedness is not a gift often given to werewolves but Samuel had it in abundance⁹⁷
• Has none of the traits of older wolves; drove a car, had a stereo system and a computer⁹⁸
• One of his jobs had been teaching the new wolves control so they could be allowed to live¹¹²
• His instinct to heal was not as strong as his instinct to kill. He always made certain to eat well before performing any kind of surgery¹¹⁸

Blood Bound

• Calmest, most even-tempered werewolf Mercy knew²¹
• Smelled of the river, desert and fur-and of the familiar sweet scent that belonged only to him²³
• He was so close to turning that the distinctive black ring around the outside of his pupils was clearly visible⁴⁶

Iron Kissed

• Had no desire to be Alpha. He said that being a doctor gave him more than enough people to take care of⁴²

Silver Borne

• Samuel the man regularly overlooked breaches of etiquette that his wolf could not⁵³
• Had forgotten that his wolf could take over; had been so long since they had battled for control; he let his wolf out to play when he chose to⁵⁴
• Wolf is white and fluffy⁶⁴

Cry Wolf

• Age had never seemed to touch Samuel much-until he'd come back a few years ago after being gone on his own for over a decade⁶⁷

Hunting Ground

• at least 700 years old–was alive during the Black Plague circa 1340⁸⁷

Wild Sign

• Samuel was the healer- Bran's mother's magic took that path in him. Samuel wasn't a miracle worker; he couldn't raise the dead or cure old age or heart disease. But he used his magic to help people¹⁵¹

His wives miscarried eighteen children between them; a handful died in infancy, and only eight lived to their third birthday. One died of old age, four of the plague, three of failing the Change.

Iron Kissed

Bone Crossed

Moon Called

• Good judge of character²⁷⁷

Iron Kissed

• Plays the violin, guitar, bodhran, and an old Welsh harp⁴⁵
• Learned to write before typewriters and computers rendered penmanship an art practiced by elementary school children. His notes always looked like formal wedding invitations⁷¹
• Good cook⁷¹

Silver Borne

• Had the gift of never being out of place, always fitting in, while at the same time he conveyed the sense that here was someone special, someone important. People liked him instinctively and trusted him. It served him well as a doctor, but Mercy was inclined to think it served him a little too well as a man. He was too used to getting his way. When charm didn't cut it, he used a tactical brain that would have done credit to Rommel¹⁰

Moon Called

• Had never been afraid of change¹⁵⁶

Blood Bound

• Not a tea drinker²⁶⁰

Samuel and Mercy

• Sam can't stay with his father, can't go lone wolf. He needs someone to balance him. Mercy is his pack^2008-01-06
• Samuel is an Emergency room doctor and a dominant Both mean he has to take care of everyone. As a wolf, he needs his pack. So much responsibility over all those years has worn him out. With Mercy as his only pack – and she is very independent – he has a respite^2009-01-24

Cry Wolf

• Bran promised Samuel's mother that he would never allow him to stay in his mother's hands¹¹

Samuel and Charles

Cry Wolf

• Samuel is the elder brother and tormentor⁵⁹
• Charles could always tell when Bran was talking to Samuel in his head, something in Samuel's face gave it away⁶⁰
• Samuel could sometimes be persuaded to tell stories to his younger brother. And Bran as berserker had been one of his favorite stories until he'd grown old enough to understand that it wasn't just a story²⁶⁷

Hunting Ground

• Charles usually trusted his father and Samuel to take care of themselves¹¹³

Wild Sign

Silver Borne

Night Broken

• Samuel considers Adam his brother by marriage³⁰⁶

Samuel and Humans

Moon Called

• Actually liked people-even humans- and Bran used him to interface with police and government officials when it was necessary⁹⁸
• Samuel liked humans. I remember him coming down to play with the elementary school kids-all human- at recess. Most werewolves avoid children, but not Samuel. They all knew who he was, of course, and when they saw him as a man they called him Dr. Cornick and treated him as they would have treated any other adult. But when he came to school as a wolf, they put him to work playing pony, runaway dog, and ferocious, but loyal, wolf-friend. He did it with the same fierce enjoyment as the children²¹⁰

Wild Sign

• Samuel used his magic to help people. His da said it was the reason that Samuel spent so much time on his own out in the world with the humans-because it was the humans who needed his touch¹⁵¹
