![]() In the Capital Knot City Isolation Ward, Bridget attempts in vain to convince Sam to continue in Amelie's footsteps on a westward expedition to reconnect America, but Sam shows no interest in America's future. Later, Sam wakes in a private room in Capital Knot City, where he is tasked by Deadman with delivering morphine to Sam's dying mother, President Bridget Strand, for one last parting moment with the woman who raised him. Sam repatriates and returns to the site of the massive crater left from the Voidout, where five floating figures briefly float above the crater before disappearing. When Igor and his partner are overcome by BTs, Igor throws his Bridge baby to Sam, before he is devoured by a colossal BT summoned by Higgs, triggering a large-scale Voidout. While en route, the three are ambushed by BTs and wreck in a shower of Timefall. While delivering cargo to Central Knot City, he encounters Fragile of Fragile Express, who triggers his aphenphosmphobic allergic reaction by grabbing his arm when the two are hunted by Beached things (aka BTs) After fulfilling the delivery, Sam meets Igor Frank and another unidentified member of Bridges' Corpse Disposal Team, the former who asks for his help in the urgent delivery of a necrotizing suicide victim to the nearest incinerator. His former co-workers suspected that his resignation was Sam's own way of taking responsibility for the incident.įor 10 years, Sam worked as a freelance porter, gaining repute as "The Legend" and "The Great Deliverer". Due to public pressure and guilt, he left Bridges and became a freelance porter, isolating himself from society and cutting himself off from the living. Her death caused a Voidout in the satellite town of UCA-01-0C, leaving Sam, a repatriate, as the sole survivor in the area and the primary suspect of the incident. After being subjected to the nightmares of DOOMS sufferers as the bearer of Sam's child, Lucy committed suicide which took their unborn daughter with her. The two fell in love, married, and eventually conceived a child, a daughter whom they intended to name Louise. ![]() He met a psychotherapist named Lucy, who tried to help him overcome his aphenphosmphobia. Sam fashioned a quipu for Amelie in the world of the living, and was able to bring it with him to the Beach, where he gifted it to Amelie as a representation of their bond.Īt some point, Sam joined Bridges, and due to his DOOMS and ability of repatriation would become an essential member of the core team as the organization's mandate expanded. ![]() Always there for him in such moments, Amelie would arrive to calm Sam and help him make his way out of the Beach. In his youth, as a sufferer of DOOMS, Sam had severe nightmares and would find himself stranded on the Beach unable to find his way out. However, his revival upset the balance of life and death, triggering the Death Stranding. No longer viable as a bridge baby by virtue of being a repatriate, he was taken into Bridget's care and raised as her son, Sam Strand. On the Beach, Sam was healed and brought back to life by Amelie, who bestowed to him the ability of repatriation. Upon learning of these intentions from an old comrade and friend, Cliff attempted to abduct Sam from a Bridges facility, but was gunned down in the process, resulting in his and Sam's deaths. ![]() In an effort to save his unborn son after Lisa was rendered brain dead in an accident, Cliff willingly placed Sam under the care of Bridges scientists conducting Bridge baby experiments, but did so unaware of their true intentions: to use Sam as a sacrificial foundation for a new communications network as the first proper bridge baby. Sam was born on November 9th, to Clifford Unger and Lisa Bridges.
