Welcome to the Wild West RPG. Set in 1868, just recently after the end of the American Civil War, you can do just about anything you want to. Play as anything or anyone from that timeset, really. From outlaws to sheriffs to gamblers to pioneers to merchants to immigrants to politicians...well, you get the idea.

OK, now because this RPG is going to give its players so many freedoms, it is going to be a little different from the others.

Name: Whatever you want, although I request you have both a first and a last name.
Age: An age. Be reasonable.
Gender: Male or female.
Class: Make your own class; anything you can think of.
Skills: Only two for the entire game. You can fill this out, if you have a specific idea or two for it, or I can, after you've made your class.
Description: A physical description and background; optional.
Location: Where you are at right now. You can start out anywhere in the United States of 1868; that includes territories.
Equipment: None
Money: None

This is a very flexible RPG. Because it does not have a lot of storyline or character interaction, it does not require for its players to have a strict attendance, however it will be very complicated and you need to be imaginitive; remember, you have a lot of liberties in this game that you wouldn't in most others. In this way, it is very different from my other RPGs. However, I think that this will be very fun; just life in the Old West, yanno?
Anyways, so....
Let it begin.

You'd be good as a hunter, really. If you're on the city's payroll to help supply food to the citizens by shooting animals and keeping them away from the city, then you'll get a rifle for the job.

You head out on your first job. After a few hours, it's getting dark, but you haven't reached your first stopping point yet. It's hard to see, but you think you can make it.

You go to camp and go to sleep. The next morning, you wake up to the sound of gunfire.

Get up in a crouch, get my pistol and check to make sure it has ammo in it. Then I'll try to detect where the sound is coming from, and how far away.

Anyway, you are going to kill all the Canadians; your general assigns you to be commander of the attack force. You don't know where the enemy is yet. What will you do?

Your pistol has two bullets in it. You can't pinpoint the sound.


I'll be leaving sometime later today; I won't be back until Sunday night.

The nearest village is five miles away, not three leagues. Will you still go?
Can't make up the terrain...

You hijack the place you're working at, and you have control of the building, however the sheriff gets wind of it and comes down with several other police officers, all armed.
