Dr John Samuels, AERT Alpha, The Grosvenor Hospital, England

Born in Hove in 2084, Samuels trained as a medical doctor at Cambridge, at about the same time as Previte-Orton but without ever meeting. After the emergence of the Proxies Samuels immediately tested for latency and was found to have a very strong potential. After the Prometheus effect, Samuels continued to excel, developing quickly in his psionic aptitude. It was at this point that the similarities between Samuels and Previte-Orton were beginning to be pointed out. At first Samuels was mild-mannered about it. But the media were so persistent that the pair were both thrust into the limelight side by side. Samuels and Previte-Orton ended up applying for and getting jobs in the highly regarded Grosvenor Hospital, with Samuels just on top. This riled Previte-Orton so much that at first it seemed unlikely that the AERT would get off the ground but due to the high levels of professional pride at stake the pair hastily buried the hatchet. So far the animosity between the pair has not flared up in public but it is just a matter of time.

Image: Dr Samuels is a fairly attractive, tall, english gentleman, his blue eyes contrasting with his thick, dark hair. He is rarely seen out of his standard issue med suit as he likes to be on call 24/7. The doctor remains fit and healthy through exercise and thus is very slim. A clean shaven and tidy appearance is the norm however, despite the long hours you put into the job.

Roleplaying Hints: Be straight as an arrow, never lie and reserve all emotion for the cretin Previte-Orton. Be polite at all times in public and private. Only order the AERT if absolutely nessecary as they all know what to do. You are not sure why they picked you for the team leader. You have the credentials but you feel you are lacking the certain leadership abilities to effectively command the AERT. However never communicate this to any of your team members and especially not Previte-Orton.
