Name: Timothy (Tim, most of the time) Halcoy
Age: 52
Gender: Male
Appearance: Short and fat, almost always wears a brown apron over a white shirt and brown slacks. He is balding, with hair only on the back and sides of his head.
Occupation: General Store Owner/Mail Man
Bio: Tim Halcoy's family has run the general store in town as long as the town has been around. Halcoy's General Merchandise is a looming figure in town, everyone has heard of it, and everyone has to visit it every so often. So, once he was old enough, he started helping in the store, time passed, and his father died, and his mother soon after. So, Tim took over the entire shop. Some people objected, he wasn't exactly an angel and never has been, he is an immoral man, he sees nothing wrong with flipping through other people's mail, which he often does, as The Pony Express delivers it to his shop. He'll also do anything to get things he wants, he's a dark man with a dark past and future, but he always appears jovial in public. And to this day, he sits in his shop, waiting for a bright eyed idiot to roll through and do his bidding.
Weapon: Double Barrel Shotgun under the counter, Revolver concealed on his body when he walks around.

If nobody plays the sheriff I would be willing to step down and make a new sheriff character.

Everyone who has submitted a sheet is accepted except for imacharginmehlaz0r and freebiewitz.

Laz0r you have to have a town occupation, you can't just be some punk kid wandering around loitering and causing trouble.

Freebie your character sounds to powerful. All the bombs you have would make you near invincible. I'd appreciate it if you ditched the bombs.
Thanks

Name: Jon Shannow
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Appearance: Tall and lean, medium length brown hair. Well muscled (for a priest). rarely wears any kind of vestment, preferring casual-smart cloths
Occupation: Assistant priest (chaplin?)
Bio:appears in Hope falls on a horse one day, and joins the church the very next day, giving no details as to where he comes form. However, most folk are content, as his zealous and fiery approach to Christianity brings many converts. However, some frown on his non-pacifist views when it comes to the raiding Indians (the Lord says 'smite them hip and thigh'!")
Weapon: none usually, though he has been seen wielding both pistol and shotgun during raids

Edit: this is assuming I can still join the church...

Anyone mind if I pop this in? I apologise if I'm treading on someone's toes!

Name: Sheriff John ?Dead-eye? Drummond
Age: 47
Gender: Male
Appearance: A lawman past his prime. A combination of steak and whiskey has expanded his waistline and his shaved head gives him a look older than his years would suggest. Sunken green eyes betray a man who would prefer his life to be quieter than how he finds it currently.
Occupation: Town Sheriff
Bio: A stern, well-built lawman in his youth, Sheriff Drummond has relaxed into his role in Hope Falls. A former prospector, Drummond became a sheriff after arriving too late on the gold-rush and finding himself with nothing but his late father?s pistols. He trained his eye and found himself as a small town deputy in a backwater mining community. Since he arrived in Hope Falls 14 years ago he has made a number of good friends among the town?s inhabitants and worked closely with the old mayor to keep the peace. Since the mayor?s death, Drummond has watched with concern as the power vacuum opened up. He doesn?t want a war and is getting too old to fight, but he is still a mean shot with his pair of .45 Colt revolvers.
Weapon: a pair of .45 Colt revolvers, ammo belt.

Name:Jimmy "The Tooth" Buck

Age:37

Gender:Male

Appearance: Very bony and slim, his ribs are barely visible when undressed. He is heavily unshaven and looks to be poor. He sits behind one of the many buildings in town and occasionally tries to steal, procure or otherwise gain a beer from any nearby taverns.

Occupation: Filthy Hobo

Bio: Many years ago (About 15) Jimmy Buck was an outlaw. He rode about the lands, stealing, raping and partaking and otherwise no-goodery with his evil cohorts. He was the guy who could shoot stuff- REEEAAL good. After riding for three days, Jimmy had come upon this town, with thoughts of robbery in his head. His cohorts had gone off, to the south, to plunder ahead of him, claiming they'd meet up back at thier hideout. His thoughts of thievery turned to 'None at all' when his horse suddenly bucked, and his head slammed against the hitching post as he was jettisoned from the saddle. When he awoke after his horse'd ran off, he couldn't remember a thing, besides the fact that he liked two things: Beer and being lazy.

Weapon: Unknown, could retain some marksman qualities.

You are still recruiting, right?
I assumed Jimmy could just use his enviornment as weaponry, y'know? I don't think he'll live long.
I wonder how many times I can stack this.... Neat...
The tags get confusing after a while.

A few posting notes
I would like to update the story every 2-3 days, which means I want everyone to post every 2-3 days if not more/sooner.
Since there is a lot of people at the start of each of my updates, I will have a summary of what happened last round to keep everyone up to date, in case they don't have time to read it all.
In addition I would like all in character posts to be 6+ lines, so preview and make sure that it is that length.
Map of the city and the start of the game will be up this weekend.
Until then converse with each other, and ask all final questions.

And NO more character sheets please. If you still have interest to join PM me.

Something tells me that currency will be the least of our issues in this RP. I think it's more going to be focused on the showdowns between the priest and barkeep (and his faithful assistant!), and possibly conflict between the sheriff and local ragamuffins.

Oh, speculation!

Currency isn't the primary concern of this RP.
The concern is going to be the tension between the city, since it will be divided in two, and also with dealing with outside problems.
There will be the side of the Barkeep and the side of the Priest, and both parties will be fighting for control of the city.

The Barkeep and Priest NEVER agree, and the Sheriff always trys to compromise the two.
If the Barkeep says its rainy outside the Priest will say it is sunny and the Sheriff will say its rainy with the suns rays beaming through.

And with that I'm off to work on the town map, and will post it when it is done.

Note: I suck at photoshop, so this will be a horid map.
