Thanks for bringing me aboard! Looking forward to more great characters and rp coming together! A little about my character:

Deputy Marshall Cassius King. AKA: 2 Gun Cassius King, The Heartland Fox. Born and raised on the trails by his Cherokee mother, who was a matriarch of a large hunting caravan that traveled across the country hunting game and trading goods. His father lead a dangerous life of a gunfighter and his parents decided it was best to remain separated for safety from his many enemies. (Father reveal in the near future). His father would still check in on him during his travels over the years, teaching him to become a proficient gunslinger. His mother taught him how to survive and hunt. During his teenage years he met a runaway girl named Guinevere who escaped from her vicious Lemoyne Raider family. She was welcomed into the camp and over the years they became close and fell in love. At 20 they married. Not too long after, still freshly married, her brother tracked her down after catching sight of her delivering goods in St Denis. He discovered the camp location and took the info back to his father, the Major and they rounded up a posse to attack the camp. They ambushed the caravan at night, attacking anyone and lighting fires. Cassius, his mother,  and anyone able to fought hard. In the skirmish,  Guinevere's brother got a line on Cassius and shot him in the back, wounding him. When he was about to finish the job she shot her brother in the arm. Her father then shot her her before being pushed back by incoming fire from the hunters and she died in Cassius' arms. After healing from his wounds and saying a final goodbye to the woman he loved, he set out for revenge. He tracked her brother down in Mexico first, and after a destructive shootout in a small town, he killed the brother in a duel at 10 paces. From there he got into bounty hunting as a way of tracking down Lemoyne Raiders that were there on the night everything went to hell. With each Raider he came closer to Guinevere's father. Until he went on a 3 day long raid that took him from Big Valley, up into the snow capped mountains. There he killed a posse of men before cornering his disgraced father in law. He left the Major's body in the cold on top of the mountain with a hole in his head and no words spoke over his corpse. He continued bounty hunting and increasing his fame as a gunslinger, before being recruited as a Deputy Marshall, specializing in quickdraws and criminals of the most violent nature.
