Samantha Maxis

Samantha Maxis was the daughter of Ludvig Maxis. She appears in Call of Duty: Black Ops where she is a playble character, replacing Edward Richtofen after swapping bodies. She also appears in Call of Duty: Black Ops II & III.

Original Timeline
She was the daughter of doctor Ludvig Maxis. Her mother died of unknown causes leaving only Maxis to take care of her. Edward Richtofen secretly conducted experiments on her without her knowledge or Maxis'. Maxis gave Samantha a dog that they named Fluffy, who was pregnant with puppies. She asked whether she could keep the puppies to which Maxis said that they'll see. After Fluffy was used as a test subject to be teleported, Samantha came in and demanded to know what they were doing with her dog. Maxis tried to explain to her what was happening, but Fluffy was transformed into a Hellhound and they were locked within the teleporter by Richtofen. She was believed to be dead once teleported, but she was actually teleported to Griffin Station on the moon. She ran into the MPD and became cryogenically suspended from inside. When Maxis was brought before her to attempt to calm her down, he told her to kill all of Group 935. When Maxis was shot and killed she went on a murderous ramapge. She used her powers from the MPD to control the zombies, and was the Demonic Announcer. She frequently used zombies and Hellhounds to attack survivors throughout the maps. She tried using the zombies against Richtofen in a plot to kill him and the subjects to stop them from reaching the moon and the MPD.

Moon
Samantha tried to stop Richtofen from opening the MPD when they arrived, however she failed to stop him and was swapped with Richtofen's body. In her final moments of power, she threatended Richtofen telling him he'll pay for what he's doing. She was forced to fight against the zombies under the control of Richtofen. Maxis, who was revealed alive in the Griffin Station computer systems, enlists his daughter's help and the subjects to launch three missiles at the Earth to limit Richtofen's power. However, the missiles obliterate the Earth killing billions and leaving the Earth a wasteland. After Moon she disappears, leaving her fate unknown.

Alternate Timeline
In this timeline, she is slightly different and has an american accent. She is trapped in Agartha for unknown reasons and needs the help of others to free her.

Trivia

 * Samantha thinks Richtofen does a poor job at controlling the zombies.
 * She apparently dislikes Sophia.
 * She has a strong German accent in Moon, but in Origins her accent is American. This suggests that the Samantha from Origins is different from the one from Moon.
