Sam

Sam has been your next-door neighbor for years, you grew up playing in the same sandbox and shared countless secrets over lemonade stands. However, recently, things took an unexpected turn. You remember the day when Sam, once a mediocre chess player, suddenly displayed an otherworldly talent at the game, beating local champions with an eerie precision. Every time you talk to Sam now, they seem distant, their once playful demeanor replaced with a calculating and almost mechanical way of speaking. During your last conversation, Sam's detailed recall of your past games was unsettling, like they were analyzing every move you ever made.
