Alright! Back home. Some character ideas -- let me know if any of these concepts resonate, conflict, or just don't work with stuff that's already pitched...

â—» Bounty Hunter - a member of the Explorer's Society. Specializes in monster-hunting. Has a Sharps Buffalo rifle.

â—» Law Dog - young lawman (or woman) on their way to pin on their first star in a rough western town...

â—» Outlaw - on the run from both the law and his former gang for his double crossing ways...

â—» Soldier - female Union soldier from the Northeast with a (probably fake) deed for a property way out west, where she intends to farmer and live a peaceful life...

I guess Outlaw might cleave a little close to my repentant enforcer who left the gang life because they made him do something that was a little too far out there…

And isn’t Windy playing a Sharpshooter type? I think I’ll settle between the Law Dog and the retired Soldier / settler today. Q, either of those a better fit?
Feb 29, 2024 4:36 pm
Those are both solid options. It's an adventure that does have some opportunity for both investigating and fighting.

Cool. Leaning Law Dog, will brew them up tonight. Thanks for waiting, and sorry for the delays.

Don't forget to share your sheet! 🤣

A girl marshall? Is that allowed?

INDEED.

Also, she does come from a long line of famous lawmen...

I tinkered with giving her Fame instead of Charisma. Also looked at Attractive and Reputation. All kind of apply but MAN SWADE is stingy with the Edges! Just one standing Edge, right, from being a hooman?

That's right, one free. You can get more by taking Hindrances, and then there are the four Advances for starting as Seasoned.

Yep, got it then. I took one for being human and one each for the third and fourth advances. Used the Hindrances points for bumping Attributes... and the first two Advances for bumping skills. Tried to design / mod the sheet so it would track all that.

We only need decide one thing before starting:

Choose for your character. If you don't all choose the same then we'll start you off as two groups, for the first post or two anyway.

How do you arrive at Barlowe Station? Public

By traincar
By horseback

There are four buildings here, right? The shack B and Windy are at. The train station that we looked through.

Nezz mentioned a stables. We could look there. What’s the other building?

The man and the poop are currently baking in the hot sun. Do we bring him with us on the train as proof? Leave him here for the lawmen to roll up on?

Suggest we bury him if we have time, or wrap him up and leave him somewhere out of the sun.

If the train has room / a cargo car, we should wrap him up and take him with us to the next stop.

I say bring him with us.
Mar 20, 2024 1:48 pm
Let's leave him at the back of the train with Nezz. 🤣

Interesting development, while Varney Mercantile is described well in the text, it's not on the map. So I placed it on the bottom right of the map, where the wooden sidewalk kind of leads between the saloon and Gentry's Guns to nowhere.

Not that it matters, just curious.
