Samarie

"'I'm no one... Just a lonely caterpillar waiting to shed her skin...'"

Samarie is a character and NPC encountered in Fear & Hunger: Termina.

Lore
A dark priest apprentice from the Vatican City. Doesn't tell much about her life beyond that...

Samarie is one of the contestants of the Termina festival. She is Marina's childhood classmate (at least that's what she states), but Marina doesn't recognize her. She seems to be in love with her, pushing her love to the limits and even stalking her. She kills Marina's father because she says Marina hated him.

Hexen
If a player character kills Samarie in combat, they will absorb her Radiating soul, which unlocks the Blood sacrifice and Masturbation skills at the Hexen.

Location
Samarie is first encountered inside the train that transports the Termina contestants to Prehevil. You can encounter her at Day 1 before Marina leaves the train, near where the protagonist woke up (you have to check up the previous cabin). After Marina leaves the train at Day 2, you can no longer interact with her at this location.

If you arrive at level 2 of Church of Alll-mer, you can find her again in front of a pillar of flesh, which is found by interacting with a premade Rher's ritual circle right below a shackled pillarman enemy. Depending on if you have Marina on your team or not, her dialogue will be different. In any case, you will fight her after the conversation if she turns into Dysmorphia.

If you can reach this area on the morning of Day 1, Samarie will be on the room to the left of the altar. She can be spoken to and convinced to return to the train. You can then later find her in the second car of the train.

If the player happens to kill her in her human form, her body will have a Chalk, a Coloured Blouse and a Soul Stone on it.

Strategy
In her human form, Samarie is a moderate threat: her right arm will cast Hurting at every single turn, but it is her only form of attacking. This is unless you're playing as Marina, who she will only talk to and not fight back at any point.

Dysmorphia is a tough opponent, having a high pool of HP. Take care of the arms first since she can use Hurting twice per turn; in addition, she can summon up to two Ghouls which will aid her during the fight with attacks and dangerous status ailments like Bleeding and Arm/Leg Infection.

The player can't run and kite this monster, so it is wise to forget about that strategy.

Trivia

 * In the demo version of the game, Per'kele doesn't count her as a participant on Termina, even when the player kills her. This is probably related to changes in storyline or unimplemented features.
 * Using Steal on her human form may result in Soul Stone Shard and Fly Amantia.
 * Talking to her in the church during Day 1 Morning has her imply she actually killed Marina’s father in self defense.
