[Other FULL] Gunpowder (M) (OOC)

[Foxrally]

Also, reading through the JP, I love how Jeb calls Colt a kid, while Jeb himself is only 27 and Colt 25.

XD I never checked through their ages but I think Sonata meant that Jeb is more experienced than Colt in bounty hunting/the wild west. I'm not sure though, you're gonna have to ask him :P

Also up next shall be a JP of me and Sonata, featuring Jeb, Sophia and the newly-inducted member of team badass Alice :D

(this is why I love being an outlaw ^^)

{:3}~_~ So do I just tell where my character was at just before he joins the story itself. Part of his journey from North to south perhaps?
But, I wont get to that for at least an half an hour; watching football (European for the sake of any Americans) and my team are 3-0 up against a very good side.

You could just do a stand off between him and another character, or something in the Chasm. GP hasn't introduced us to the outside world yet. Maybe just have him go to Janet to ask for the bounty he has to hunt down next, or have him use his powers to hunt down for food. Don't do something you want to explore in your other posts, as not everyone is going to read your RP sample.

Thanks, for this and the PM. I'll start now and PM it to you when I'm done. I'll probably just post what I'd planned for my first post

If anyone is looking for a partner for a JP, feel free to hit me up~ I've purposely set Virginia up in places where she can meet other people.

Also, looks like I made my 1000th post in this roleplay~ xD

Emmett is like, on his way to Larkin now, so I see opportunity,

I'd like to see a JP of Virginia and Emmet :D They're technically both heading to the same place, the tavern (which is where the Culebras are). I'm interested in seeing what a double-outlaw JP would be like though :O

Owh, now that you say it, I wonder what they can get up to. Maybe Emmett will just drag her into some high jinx, against her will.

Update​

Sophia Hartmann, a known member of the Culebra clan operating out of the Larkin Area, has been becoming increasingly active and violent showing no qualms about attacking populated public areas. This aggressive behaviour has resulted in an increase in her bounty from $500 to $580.

Small time outlaw, Owen Wright seems to be following a similar path in increasingly aggressive actions having been a part of a severe shootout resulting in several casualties. As a result of this his bounty has been increased to $175.

These events seem to indicate a disturbing rise in the aggression of criminals in the Great Chasm. Is a storm brewing in the Barren Lands?

In other news, Janet's Bounty Hunting Agency is being fined $532 dollars due to damages caused by one of her employees, Jebediah Sanders (Just something I'm throwing Jeb's way, might be a good reason for him to end up chasing a bounty as low as Scrig's).

Okay this is my sample, I hope you enjoy,

Spoiler:

Down in the Dumps
Achilles Nimbus
Element-Electricity
Sorcery Rank-1
Status-None currenty
$2000
Achilles sat in the moonlight; with his face hidden, on the edge of the Great Chasm. His arm was rested on his cropped up knee with the other leg laid flat on the floor, as he peered down at towns beneath him. It seemed ironic to him that he should be forced to venture into the lands which he had viewed as filthy for the majority of his life.
"You seem to be hesitating." Stated the translucent blue figure behind him. The being's dress and hair seemed to billow unfeasible in the gentle breeze. Achilles sighed. He looked slightly to his left, without letting his cloak unveil his face.
"Shocked?" The blue figure seemed to tilt her head to the right, with a surprised grin on her face. Achilles stood up with another sigh, instantly regretting his response. He walked over to his black HORSE as the blue figure approached him eagerly.
"If you're going to use my jokes, I can pitch you more material. Maybe something like, umm...I'll get the JOB done lightning quick. You should definitely say that to the bounty hun...." Achilles hopped on his steed, ignoring the ongoing monologue.
"Onyx...ride." He interrupted as the horse took off down the chasm. The blue figure sighed, as she followed behind him.

The next day Achilles arrived in Spider Hollow. He looked around, disappointed by the small town, before jumping off of Onyx's back. When walking through the town he noticed the meek small HORSES before looking back at his powerful ,well fed mustang.
"Achilles, I'm hungry." Stated the blue figure. Achilles looked down at his stomach. He bit his lip, regretting not having brought food with him. After a moment of contemplation, he looked back at the blue figure.
"Shillace, we're going to have to eat here!" Shillace simply grinned. Achilles walked into a tavern and sat down at the counter. The bartender turned her attention to him.
"Anything I can do for you sir? She smiled pleasantly at him. He made a conscious effort to keep his face as hidden as possible, under his cloaks hood. He then looked down at his satchel and uncharacteristically rummaged through it before pulling out $12. He slid the MONEY across the table, leaving it in front of the woman.
"I'd like a Salmon and Lettuce wrap, please." The woman stood with a senile expression on her face. She appeared unsure as to what her response should be.
"Umm...how about a rabbit sandwich?" She said chuckling awkwardly. Achilles simply nodded. The girl returned a few minutes later with the sandwich. "That'll be $6 sir." Achilles sat awaiting some sort of tool to approach his food with. Shillace appeared and gazed apathetically at the sandwich.
"We're not going to eat that are we?" Achilles put on the face of a victim. Shaking his head, he reluctantly picked up the sandwich-trying to stop it from making contact with any parts of his body that it didn't have to- and ate the sandwich.

Still heaving after his previous meal, Achilles finally arrived at an tavern. He faintly tapped his knuckles on the door, three times. He stood patiently awaiting some sort of response. After a few moments he again tapped at the door. All of a sudden a cluster of clangs, jinks and bangs came through the door. The door quickly flung open, and a seemingly enlivened old woman stood at the door.
"Something I can do for you?" The woman looked keenly at Achilles, who was rather overwhelmed by her pleasantness. She greeted him in, before staying behind to man the locks behind him. Upon reaching the kitchen the woman offered Achilles a cup of tea which he happily accepted.
"So..." Achilles decided to shift the woman's attention from the tea after scanning the obnoxious brown substance inside his mug. "I wish to become a bounty hunter, I require your blessing" The woman looked confused. Noticing her expression, Achilles CONTINUED to explain. "You are Janet the bounty hunter, correct?" Janet raised her mug and took a sip, before folding her arms in contemplation.
"Why would a rich kid like you want to become a bounty hunter, especially in these parts?" Achilles nervously removes his hood. Trying to think of some kind of believable story.
"These clothes are stolen." He looked up at her to see if she was convinced. Shillace shook her head. Janet took another sip of her tea and thought for a second. She headed towards the door to show Achilles where to collect a wanted poster.
"You should probably change your clothes if you're in disguise, you can pose as a bounty hunter in the south at you're leisure as long as you do the work I give. You may also want to consider getting rid of some of that cash you're carrying." Achilles took time to consider what Janet had just said. He unhooked his satchel from his leg and took a large clump of money out of it. With a click of his fingers, the paper on the table was burned to a crisp. Janet turned around in response to the flash of light behind her. Her face was distraught, as she rued her failure to trick Achilles into giving her his money. Shillace grinned.
"That was certainly, quite electrifying."

In the mean time I'm going to continue catch up with the IC, I've gotten pretty far

I'm just adding you to the character list, feel free to start posting

 

[Sonata]

You would have to write a day in the life of the character, I did the same. It's basically you're first post, and it helps a lot to get to know the character before you really throw him into the world.

Also, reading through the JP, I love how Jeb calls Colt a kid, while Jeb himself is only 27 and Colt 25.

It's just as Fox said. Plus Jeb looks like he's about 40-50 rather than the 27 that he is and he feels like he's about that old. He's lived a rather stressful life and already has grey streaks in his hair.

He's going to look a lot worse once Janet gets her hands on him :P

He was just trying to help, and if anything he should be praised. He got bullets over three years old dug out of that bar. :( And Colt did most of the damage anyways. -whistles-

 

[Shak]

Since its canon, should I post my sample in the IC thread?

 

[Ice1]

You could if you feel like it is a very important part of his story, instead of just a prequel. If you were to post it though, I would add some new paragraphs, as this one has been posted already. You could also pick up from this point, and let this serve as only a introduction. All information about your character probably get apparent in the rest of the story too, so unless you feel that this part is crucial, I would leave this here, and write a new post for the IC.
