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 Debts/Favors: None Allies: None Enemies: None Health Status: Healthy Fame/Infamy Status: Unknown
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 stop and lay down facing it quietly(yes, that is correct). However, you do not think you can take it down; after all, you don't yet even have a gun.

You see a small rabbit dashing past. He'd be a tasty mutton stew, but it seems a waste of shot to kill something with so little meat

BTW I just found out Poseidon ***** Medusa LOL idk why I just said that :P
Totally random, but now you've got me started on Greek myths... Technically it's uncertain if he raped or or if she consented to it, but yeah, that there is a pretty famous myth. They did it in Athena's temple and Athena got all mad...that's actually why Medusa was turned into a monster.
