overall personality:
as the son of rita skeeter and gilderoy lockhart, sam tends to have red flags raised around him before anyone gets to meet him. unlike his two parents, he is rather the opposite from them for the most part. truthfully, he does enjoy staying up to date with everyone and will listen for any of the new gossip going around the wizarding world. it was one of the small details that kept the idea of being an auror in his mind through those years at school. being an auror meant that he would know everything first before any journalist would. as much as he enjoys knowing things before his mother, he is not the type to spread the newest news to anyone that should not know it. while he loves the gossip, he is not the type to betray the trust of others by spreading it around. one of the attributes most likeable about sam is that he is loyal to any of his friends or even strangers that he has heard rumors about. if he doesn't know the person and is hearing vicious rumors spread about them, he has no problem going up to them and telling them what is being said behind their back. if someone is spreading rumors about his friends, he certainly has no problem defending his friends. along with the fact that if his friends confide in him over something, he isn't going to be that person to spread the secret around like wildfire. clearly a few attributes as to why sam could never inherit his mother's job.
having grown up around a very social woman, sam is very outgoing. he was one of the first years that walked up to the seventh years with no problem, asking for their help on how to get to classes. sam has always been the first to approach others when they look lost as well, willing to help them out in a time of need. this is something that he has inherited much from his father, always knowing everyone. as a youngster, sam showed another attribute that would have easily landed him into another house. bravery. since he was a small boy, sam was the type to climb the trees around his house. he was the first one to volunteer to do a dare and successfully complete it. he was the first student in his first year of flying classes to volunteer to ride a broom despite never being on one before that class. while his bravery still remains, sam held an attribute quite stronger than all of the rest to land him into the ravenclaw house. with a job at the daily prophet, rita often had sam help her read through articles or anything containing words for that matter, as a little assistant to her. reading so early in his years, he definitely grew to have book smarts and took a strong interest in books from the beginning. while some may not view him as the smartest due to his bravery sometimes outweighing his decisions, he is actually quite intelligent and often appears to come off as less, so his enemies don't think much of him.

history:
About a month before Gilderoy Lockhart lost his memory, an affair occurred between Rita Skeeter and the great wizard himself. Rita was mainly using him to gain information for more news articles for the Daily Prophet. Lockhart was using her for the fame and attention thus neither of them held any real feelings towards each other. A month later, Gilderoy Lockhart lost his memory and Rita was all about reporting the nastiest news possible for his downfall. She felt ashamed of being with him after learning of his fake 'greatness'. She looked to put her past affair behind her and began another affair shortly later with another wizard for more of the latest gossip in the wizarding world. The idea of putting her past behind her did not last long as she ended up finding out some news. Rita Skeeter was pregnant, of all people. She had never wanted children nor did she want to be the center of gossip herself, the main topic of that being who the father was. The world would have wanted to know who the father was, of Rita Skeeter's child. No doubt they would ask questions. She took it upon herself to hide her stomach as the months went on because she knew deep down who the father was. Gilderoy Lockhart. Rita had planned that when the child was born, she would leave him or her at an orphanage, not wanting a child from the man who had ended up being a fraud. Someone who would bring shame to her own name.
It wasn't until January 3rd, 1994 when her son was born that she completely changed her view on giving him up. Rita settled for the boy's first name to be Samuel after her father with Finn as the middle name, a name that she had always admired. The last name of Sam was not decided for several days though she had decided upon giving him, her own last name. Skeeter. No one knew of the boy's birth except for her family whom looked after the boy for her. For the first few years of his life, Sam lived with his grandparents in their home, barely seeing his mother. Rita was still too busy with reporting the latest gossip to pay much attention to her son. It wasn't until he showed magical ability at the age of six that she began to pay attention to him. It was a spectacular display of magical ability with him causing a set of fireworks to go off from a box of them by merely getting excited over a new toy from his grandmother. This act led Rita to believe that perhaps the boy would prove to be someone that everyone would pay attention to, being greater than his so called father. Growing up, Sam questioned about his father though had been told nothing of him. Rita simply stated that the man left her when she was pregnant and she was not sure who he was. After the showcase of magical ability, Rita began to acknowledge she had a son to the world, letting everyone know of her son that no one had known of until that moment.
When Sam turned eleven, he received his letter from Hogwarts. It was a happy occasion for mother and son, both who had grown to have a bond finally after several years of not having one. He left for Hogwarts that September and was sorted into Ravenclaw. When he had been growing up, Sam had taken to reading a lot of books. As he read more books and became smarter, Rita would often have the boy accompany her to the Daily Prophet to help read over articles. To make them more intriguing by having a second opinion. When he was sorted into Ravenclaw, his mother sent him the newest broomstick to use for practice in flying classes. It was mainly a gift for him being sorted into her former house. It was during this year that his fellow classmates would ask about his father, having heard about his famous mother. During the Christmas break, Sam began pestering his mother's family about his father. Without her permission, they took their grandson to St. Mungo's to meet his father. His mother showed up later at the ward, angry at her parents. However, the angriest person in the room was Sam, who had been lied to for years. He left the hospital that night and demanded that Rita had his last name changed to what it should have been. He spent the rest of his first year, learning about his father and ignoring his mother for a good amount of the year.
It was in his second year that his last name was changed to Lockhart to match his father's last name. In his second year, he was added to the quidditch team for Ravenclaw as the keeper for the team. It wasn't until his sixth year that he became the captain of the quidditch team. During his years at Hogwarts, he proved to be nowhere near as bad as his mother with gossip. He loved to hear it though would keep loyal to any of his friends. Some people did judge him on his last name change after hearing that his father was Gilderoy. Even his mother has had to deal with criticism over being with Gilderoy. Still to this day, Sam visits his father daily despite him not knowing who he is. Also after his years at Hogwarts, Sam has gone on to be an auror with hopes of being the head auror some day.
