strangeness thrives in the west.
where shadows grow long under the sun, people of all types lose their way in desert wastes. but we thrive here, steampowered and strong, with nothing to our names but a reputation and a gun.
we aren't the only ones this far out, and the vast expanse of the west attracts nothing but trouble.
they say that somewhere out there is a gun that is capable of killing anything, even the reaper.
a gun like that is more than capable of falling into the wrong hands, and everyone with more than half a brain is on their way to get it.
it's just a matter of who finds it first.

Characters:
Josian Cooper: A tall gangly bounty hunter with a reputation for hunting down those who have escaped death. An interesting brand of psychopomp. Does not care about gender.
Kain Eddel: A vampire, part of Cooper's bounty hunting squad. Freckly with a southern accent, twiggy with broad shoulders. A sweetie pie, it's a miracle he's killed anything.
Batilde "The Ivory Killer" Rosemary: A hulking woman with tan skin and a multitude of scars, often appearing as a large, demonic tusked beast. A longtime friend of Cooper with a mysterious, unspoken past.
Blair Rosemary: A tall but fairly nonthreatening young women, supposedly "cursed." She prefers throwing weapons or a bow and arrow over guns.
Billie Wyndham: a short, lithe young woman, Billie has a reputation for being a dangerous person to cross. She prefers to use her bare hands and a metal exoskeleton to mete out punishment. It's not clear where she got her tech, though the rumor of a deal with a demon has followed her everywhere she goes. A member of Cooper's posse and out for the gun.
Lorraine "Lori" Harris - a short, gaunt young woman with tired brown eyes and darker brown locks. she looks about a decade older than she is. to hide her features she often wears a large straw hat. a strange brand adorns the back of her neck, granting her the power to manipulate the fluids in a human body. lori claims that she uses it for "persuasion". however, if in use for too long, the brand burns hot and drains life from her. once a mindless wanderer of the west, she is now part of cooper's gang, aiding them on the search for the gun. she often wonders what it would be like in her own hands.
Jolene: a prideful woman, Jolene is a talented gunslinger, thought to be the quickest of their time. Orphaned at a young age, Jolene often found herself in the company of strange men who had nothing to their name but a gun. With deadly aim and cold calculations, Jolene has been the last sight of many unlucky men. Her shooting range is almost unheard of, rumor has it her pistol can shoot farther than the best of rifles. Her appearance does nothing to add to the notoriety of her name. She is short, with dainty limbs and soft features, but the long jagged scar from a knife that left her half blind does make her skill slightly more impressive. She has every appearance of a lady besides the y grin on her face, the men's clothes she wears, and the blood on her hands. Her wavy auburn hair is cropped to just tickle her shoulders and her green eyes are constantly measuring others for a weakness as they peer out from under a crooked, oversized ten gallon hat. Used to being a lone wolf, Jolene struggles to be comfortable around the gang but knows joining is in her best interest; how else will she get the colt she deserves to posses?
Jamie "Iron Bull" Robinson Jamie has dark ginger hair that barely touches his ears. He has a rough looking face and has green eyes. Jamie has a couple of tattoos on his back and arms. Jamie is a well known outlaw and leader of the Iron Blood Gang . He has the strength of a bull and can grow horns like one.
Alexa Jones" Alexa has dirty blonde that hair that goes well past her shoulders. She has pretty blue eyes and a innocent looking face. She stands at around 5'6 and has a curvy build. Alexa is crafty, mischievous and flirty. Alexa doesn't mind using her looks or her body to get what she wants. She is a member of Jamie's gang and treats him like a brother.
Camille: With yellow, feline like eyes, pitch black hair, and pale skin, Cam resembles nothing of the witches from modern folklore. Standing at a below average height, she is lithe, but has womanly curves in all the right places. High cheek bones mixed with rosy pink lips make her a very attractive woman indeed. She usually leaves her black, curly hair down, giving it freedom it to tumble down the full length of her back. Sarcastic and cutthroat, Cam would be the last person to get into a verbal fight with or any fight really. She uses her... unusual skills to her upmost advantage and works as a black market 'hit man' of sorts. If you ever need to curse someone or buy a love potion, Cam is your girl. She is openly vain about her looks and rebellious, but she has a good heart and only wants what is best for her group. She would go to war for her band of misfits.
Rykaer: Standing at 6'5, Ry is a tall and lanky individual. A fine layer of muscle covers his tanned arms and legs. His disheveled strawberry colored hair hits the nape of his neck, contrasting nicely with the sharp blue and green of his eyes. When he smiles, dimples pop up on his cheeks and the sharp point of his chin seems less severe. With broad shoulders and a tattoo that curls around the back of his neck, he could appear intimidating to any passersby. Half elf, his ears tilt up into a delicate point. Ry is a quiet, but confident individual. He has a cool head, but has an uncanny knack for getting into trouble. His unnatural strength and speed are his only weapons as he prefers to fight with his hands.
