Outlaw

The masked figure stepped calmly into the middle of the dusty street, boarded up windows and hiding onlookers forgotten as the target stared back at them. 20 paces away, eyes hard as they dared each other to make the first move. Just as the bandit twitched towards his pistol, past victories etched onto the barrel like trophies, he dropped. Smoke rose and twisted out of the revolver that not a single onlooker realised had left the holster. No one saw the large grin on the outlaw's face as they swaggered over, grabbing the hat with a burned hole in the centre from the fallen amateur. Collecting this bounty would surely stir the gangs up, and they just couldn't wait.

Outlaws are duelists and marksmen that work outside the system, choosing to live life on the ragged edge, or having been cast out and forced to pick up their holsters. They heed no laws or control, only believing the feeling in their heart, the hunger in their bellys and the iron on their hip. Some outlaws are saviours, riding in to take down ruthless gangs and corrupt officials with their smoking steel and pinpoint accuracy. Others are marauders, bandits that see the wilds, wastes and peasantry as ripe for the picking.
