You'll probably think the oppening stunk, but the actual game will have a lot of action, adventure, and other eliments to a good RPG. Sign up and you'll see!
Creating a Character: Max stats are between 1and10. And Charisma is only talking your way out of things here, perseption, is all of your senses, agility is your stamina, aim, timing, that stuff, and strength is... well strength, same as speed. No limits, just keep your character reasonable.

perhaps you might try a limit around 30-35 for total points on the character builds, it would do a better job of ensuring a balanced character, which would make teamwork more necessary.

OOC: Oo! Signing up for this! Should we post in any starting equipment? If yes:
Aron
Black hair, black suit, bow-tie.
Charisma 6
Perception 9
Agility 9
Strength 4
Speed 6
Aron is a sharpshooter from Boston. Famed for his abilities with all kinds of precise firearms, this man has very little actual combat experience. All his knowledge and skills with firearms are schooled and taught by tutors his wealthy family easily afforded. He arrived into town because the last bank robbed by these men was owned by his parents.
Equipment: Long-barreled Colt revolver with 7-round drum. Case with clothes, papers and parts for personalised hunting rifle with a 3-foot scope. Pea shooter strapped to left leg. 70$(not a small number those days).

Oooh, this looks like an interesting one!

Ronald
Blonde hair, green tartan suit.
Charisma: 9
Perception: 3
Agility: 3
Strength: 2
Speed: 5
Ronald is a wealthy British traveller who blew all his money on one final trip to America. He isn't strong. He isn't fast. He is a coward. He has not coordination... But, boy, is he lucky! During his stay, he has accidentally walked right into numerous robberies and become endangered. But, due to sheer luck, he manages to prevail (eg. Ducking bullets so the robbers shoot each other [img]tongue.gif[/img] ). Also, his fantastic looks make his very persuasive. All his 'incredible feats' have made him a local hero. But there's only so many times luck can save you... he's just an average man, and he can't get out of EVERY scrape...

LOL Jaradu your character cracks me up [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

hmm, I'll bite.

"Big" Jim Murdock

Charisma 4
Perception 3
Agility 8
Strength 8
Speed 2

Big Jim was a bounty hunter until a fugitive tried to slow him down, by blasting his foot off with a shotgun. Thanks to advancements in modern medicine, Jim survived, but was forced to retire from active hunting. He has tried several career paths since then, cattle rancher, saloon owner (even a brief stint as a dance hall girl), but nothing panned out for long. After being deputized to round up a band of outlaws that included Snakebite Joe, the man who shot off his foot, he decided to go back to law enforcement and became a sheriff. His peg leg slows him down somewhat, but he's very strong, and quick-witted, and great with a sixgun, although his favorite weapon is ironically the one that has cost him the most, a sawed off double barreled 8 gauge shotgun, he's not above using a rifle, or the pair of Colts he keeps on his belt.

I guess I'll join too:

Patrick O'Tool

An irishman, who immigrated to the "new continent" Patrick first tried his luck with the job he had had in Ireland and was an illegal whisky brewer. But the county sheriff found out about his business and closed it down, but Patrick managed to escape the town. He decided that to keep safe he would have to travel west across the continent. But his journey was cut short, when he got caught in a bank robbery and all of his savings were taken from him. He vowed to get back the money stolen from him. That was how he started following the band of robbers.

Stats:

Charisma6
Perception5

Some physical description: typical red irish hair and freckles. 42 years old, starting to show some excess weight, but still relatively good with his handgun, which he himself had made in Ireland. Mystically he also always seems to have whisky with himself.

Cool, 5 people. Wanna start us off, Keal?

:0 Holy Crap!!! three days and already 5 people! Let's Go!<font color=red>
Keal jumps up from his bed, and grabs a tan trench coat, tan pants, and a double barrel shotgun.He fires up into the cieling and shouts "Wake up boys! We gotta get a head start if we gonna get 'way from 'ere! Get up! Get Dressed! And get Saddled!"

<font color=yellow> Ronald groans and slumps out of bed. "Is it really necessary to cause such a racket and waste ammo like that? Still, I suppose it woke me up..."

He undresses from his nightie into his green suit and offers to make tea for everyone. "It'll help wake you all up." </font>
