The year is 1860. America is at the brink of civil war as tensions in the East between the North and South begin to come to a boil. On the other side of the country life is a little different. Vast expanses of open land between small mining towns, cow towns and ranch estates dominate the landscape. Railroads have connected the East to West giving rise to cities along the tail lines. With the cities come new people. "City Folk" naive to the law of the land. It wasn't called the "Wild West" for no reason. The strong ruled out here. Most hoped the local sheriff was the strongest, but that's not always how things worked out. Roving bands of train robbers, cattle thieves, and deserters plagued the land as well. Government hadn't quite made its way out to these parts and if the bandits didn't catch a bullet they were likely to get away Scott free. It was plain to see why the allure of an easy score attracted many to the outlaw life. ---------------------------------------- So this is where we come in. We will all have some sort of sordid past leading us to a life of crime. All small time criminals coming together to pull off a big bank job in Tombstone, Arizona. So I'm looking for 4 other people to fill out the gang and then maybe a 5th to play a pursuing sheriff/deputy. I think that could be a fun twist. If no one wants that role I may take it myself. So anyways feel free to post CS's here. I'm not too nit picky I've marked the RP advanced but I don't need insane backgrounds or anything. Here's a template Name Age Appearance Role (strategist, marksman, cat burglar, etc) Weapon/gear Background (criminal background and what lead you to crime)
