Samuel A. Hilton

"'Mankind will always look to Polaris, even if he leads them astray.'"Samuel Allen Hilton (June 5, 2003 - March 6, 2066) was one of the most powerful and notorious men of the 21st century. He was born to Allen Ray Hilton and Elizabeth Anderson Hilton in Danbury, Connecticut, but moved many places as a child. As a politician at the end of the two-party system, Hilton served as Congressman, Governor of Minnesota, Vice President and President of the United States. He also founded the True North United Bluejay Party, and co-founded the Big Blue Coalition alongside Praxis A. Faloon.

Many scholars have cited Hilton as the most powerful individual in the 21st century, as he simultaneously served as the executive, legislative, and judicial head of government during the Blue Republic. He rose to infamy during the Hay-Adams Affair and the Capitol Bombing. During his time as Vice President, he shifted the focus of the Master Plan towards a more Bluejay agenda, and as President he issued in a complete Master Plan package.

His reforms and consolidation of power were met with controversy, and on the 5th of March he was shot by an anti-Bluejay gunman at the unveiling of a major infrastructure project. He died in the early hours of March 6th, and after his death the Bluejay party fell apart. He is buried in Arlington Cemetery, though (per his will) his heart is buried in Groveland Cemetery in his hometown of Minnetonka, MN beneath a grave simply marked "SH".

Early Life
Samuel's parents met at Yale Divinity School where his father was a professor of New Testament Studies and his mother was a graduate student. The pair married on June 9th, 2001 and moved to New Canaan from New Haven that same year. Late at night on June 4th, 2003, his mother went into labor, and in the morning of June 5th, Samuel was born. Two years later, his parents had his brother and moved the family to Seattle, WA.

In Seattle, Samuel spent a lot of time with his paternal side of the family. His cousin, Kyle Fossum, would later report that, being stuck in a car with Hilton, he once loudly remarked "Does Sam ever shut up?!" In 2009, the Hiltons moved to Minnetonka, Minnesota. Here, young Samuel found his strongest identity, but also his deepest hardship. He once remarked that he was bullied and ostracized as a child, and that it was a very formative experience for him.

At age 13, Samuel shifted to a private online school as the family moved temporarily to Scottsdale, Arizona before going on to Austin, Texas. In Austin, Samuel met many future political rivals and compatriots, including Praxis A. Faloon, Liliana Coovrey, Jessie Lucas, and Aden Botchway.
