Genius Bruiser: Well read with an extensive knowledge of history and archaeology, especially regarding the pirate Henry Avery.By the end of the game, they at least learn to tolerate one another. Enemy Mine: In The Lost Legacy, he finds himself working alongside Nadine, who is still furious at him for everything he did in A Thief's End.Deadpan Snarker: Just as snarky as Nate.Since he shares Nate's luck, however, their usage doesn't last long.

Big Brother Instinct: Even while breaking into Evelyn's home, he values Nathan's safety over his own.Sam tells Nate he could search his entire list of contacts and no matter how proficient or skilled they might be, he wouldn't leave his life in anyone's hands but his little brother's. This ends up being the selling point for Nate when he tries to Opt Out of Sam's offer to resume the hunt for Avery's treasure, offering up any one of his other aides from past adventures. Badass Biker: Just like his brother, Sam is an excellent hand-to-hand fighter and marksman and proves himself to be a pretty spectacular motorcyclist, too.And the Adventure Continues: Teams up with Sully in the ending, after admitting that he still can't escape from the thrill of treasure hunting.In fact he and Nate collaborated on some theories that eventually manifested as Nate's later adventures (such as Francis Drake faking his death, which is what kicks off Drake's Fortune).
