Would it be poor form to reserve a spot?

You posted on the interest check, I'll reserve a spot for you, no worries.

He's hard to get to know well and very Individualistic, But is well-respected by the few that do know him for his perserverence in doing the right thing. He Can be depended on to follow through and will stick to things until they are done. Born in Virgina and raised up on a farm by God fearing parents, he learned early both the value of hard work and keeping your word and had every intention of marrying and settleing down and living the good, quite life of a Farmer. Until the War between the States broke out in 1861, and not long after they lost the crops to scavanegers both blue and gray, then finally the Farm, which Union Cavalary came and confiscated it in 1863.At the age of sixteen, he lost both his parents to fever and with no land to call his own, and with little prospects, he found himself riding with Jeb Stuarts Virginia Cavalry for the last two years of the War.After the surrender, he rode to the Territory of Texas and fell in with the Rangers chasing down, Renegade indians, Horse Thieves, Cattle Rustlers and Mexican Bandito's. When a Judge friend moved to New Mexico to become a Federal Judge, he asked Joshua to come Marshall for him.

Hmmm, looks as if ya'll might could use a Lawman in this here RP.

Go for it man, I'd be a little unhappy if everyone decided to be an outlaw/general bad guy type. We need some lawmen in it too.

I should point out that the LeMat revolver doesn't fire exclusively buckshot as far as I know. It has a nine round cylinder AND a seconday barrel which contains the single buckshot round. How one fires the second round or how one reloads tbe buckshot I do not know. That information wasn't in the postapocalyptic book I was reading.

It was on some site I checked for gun information and Wikipedia. Maybe I got it mixed up.

May I ask why the weaponry is so limited? If you like I can supply a pretty good list of weapons that were created during that year.

Those were the weapons I found right off the abtou while googling weaponry during that time period.

I'll happily see your list and see if I can add the stuff from it to the OOC weaponry list.

Well, I had considered having a map and a matching tattoo that together would find some lost gold that me ol' pa, one of those banditos I mentioned, had gathered during his crooked life.I figured that was a bit over the top :)

A little, but I'm sure you could have a great character who tries to become the head of Buffalo Gulch or something, I'll leave it up to you to decide where you want to take the character. ;)

Open World Wild West RP?

So far there's been two people who've applied with characters on the OOC, both have been accepted. If you want in, then now would be the time to apply.

I'll probably set a character limit of 7 - 8.

Username - AssallyaCharacter Name - Yasmine Torres Nickname - None as of yetAge - 21Occupation - HarlotGender - FemaleHeight - 5'1"Weight - 108 lbs.Clothing - Yasmine wears very little, letting her clients see what she offers, often while hanging from a window. What she does wear is most often tight to accentuate her curves as opposed to the wide petticoats of a proper lady which encourage a man to chaste thoughts.Starting location - Buffalo Gulch Skills - Carousing, plotting, Weaknesses - Any sort of combatWeaponry - One good knife inside of thighEquipment - NonePersonality - Yasmine has experienced a lot of loss in her short life. As a result she's become rather cynical. She does, however, have a soft spot for nearly any man who claims he adores her. For him she'd do anything. Unfortunately, most men see that as an opportunity to get a quick tumble for free and she keeps falling for it.Biography - Yasmine was born in Mexico and grew up around brigands and all manner of unruly sorts and her small town was home to two bandit gangs in particular.. When the policia ran through the town to collect the gangs shooting was wild and fairly indiscriminate. Generally, any who lived in the town were considered accomplices. Her entire village gone, the houses fired, Yasmine barely escaped with her life. She wandered for days in the desert until she was picked up by some merchants who gave her water and took her to the nearest town.Near penniless in a strange town and unsure if the policia were looking for her Yasmine had little choice but to use the last of her money to hire a coach and travelled north. There, with no money at all left, she turned to whoring. She has been doing so for a year when one of her "clients" told her of his love and desire to marry her. She moved with him to Buffalo Gulch where he promptly dumped her in favour of another strumpet. She has been whoring there ever since.

Accepted, welcome to the RP!

Post it on the character sheet page.

A prostitute could be an interesting character, especially in a near lawless place like Buffalo Gulch.
