Eli was plagued with constant ridicule since he was able to understand what words meant, mainly due to how he came to be. See, Jean Mckee was an Outlaw roamin' the west when he happened about the small stead where the Lerins' lived. Keeping the fact that he was a wanted criminal, he was welcomed with open arms and after some time, regarded as family. He'd help with the family's ranch and in turn they'd offer residence in the nearly empty ranch-house. Why is were so empty? Well both Lerin boys were killed by "Them damn Injuns" in what'd be known as the Great Raid, the singlemost largest indian attack on white cities. This left only Ma and Pa Lerin, along with their daughter Elizabeth. Life was easy, serine, and albeit a stark contrast to the Outlaw life, Jean came to enjoy it. He also came to enjoy the company of Elizabeth and soon enough, they fell in Love. It was short-lived, as news of Jean's true identity was brought to life when the residing Sheriff visiting the Lerins "Swore he'd seen that feller before". Consulting old wanted posters, it was revealed that Jean was infact an Outlaw, wanted Dead or Alive: $2,000. Once this came to light, all sorts a' lowlife began takin' chances, and at some point had the collective brainwave to ambush the stead. That night, some 50 men stormed the ranch, To which Jean responded with opening fire. Jean was subsequently killed by gunfire. Not even cold in his grave, Elizabeth discovered she was pregnant with Eli, which her parents naturally disapproved. Yet when the child was born, they couldn't find it in em' to hate the boy, and he too were accepted like Jean was years ago. Eli regarded himself a 'cursed child' due to how ostracized he was, but he soon learned to ignore them. [i]He'd show them[/i] He thought [i]He'd show them all[/i]. Working on the ranch raised Eli to be a strong, healthy youth and when he came of age, was conscripted into the Union Army. When in training, he met a man by the name of Jesse, who he befriended. After training, He and Jesse were both assigned to the Army of Georgia and both under the enlisted rank of Private. They both ever saw one battle, the dreaded Battle of Shiloh. he and Jesse were amongst the Union soldiers surprised by the Confederate attack, yet they dug in heels and held against wave after wave of "Them damn greys". The aftermath was brutal on both ends, A Union victory but at the cost of thousands of men. Eli was injured during the battle and subsequently relieved of further duty in the Army. He was granted the Campaign Service Medal and was field promoted to Sargent during the battle. Returning home, he learned that his Mother passed of Yellow Fever. He decided then to be a U.S Marshal and was readily accepted due to his military service. Years later, he learned that Jesse had also survived Shiloh, through a letter sent from Kansas. He may just visit sometime... [/color] [/center] [center][b][i][u][color=silver]♤Worst Nightmare♤[/color][/u][/i][/b][/center] [color=7ea7d8][i]Originally, it was dying at Shiloh.
