Name: Mary Rose Johnson, "Bloody Mary"

Purpose: Currently looking for any job that would earn her cash.

Description:
Standing at 5’9 and 130 lbs, Mary is taller than most women. She has a well-muscled, athletic, frame earned from many rough years traveling the West as an outlaw. Appearing to be in her mid-twenties, she has hazel green eyes and braided dirty blonde hair that she hangs over her shoulder. With delicate features and a well-angled face, Mary would be considered beautiful if not for the pale white scar running along her left jawline. Mary’s outfit consists of a yellowed long sleeve shirt, worn black trousers, a brown leather cowboy hat, and a black bandana around her neck. Around her waist are a large brown leather belt and two pistol holsters on either side.

Backstory:
Mary was the only child of a pair of farmers from Kansas. Her family had toiled the same land for generations, earning a meager but honest living. As a child, she knew it was her destiny to one day marry a strong man to work the farm as her father and grandfather did, much to her chagrin. Growing up she was very much her father’s daughter. Not having a son, Mary’s father raised her to hunt, fish, and shoot like the other boys her age. She developed a dislike for the household chores her mother forced upon her, instead finding joy in accompanying her father on his many hunting trips. By thirteen she could shoot a squirrel right between the eyes from a respectable distance.

Due to reasons unknown, Mary left the farm at the tender age of sixteen with nothing but her father’s old hunting rifle, the family horse, and an angry glint in her eye. She quickly joined up with a gang of local youths who had decided to leave their poor lives behind and set out in search of loot. They were successful for a time, robbing wealthy travelers, stagecoaches, and small-time businesses. It was never anything too big but enough to earn them a dishonest living.

One night, after a successful train robbery – their most profitable job yet, Mary awoke to the drunken stupor of one of the outlaws making his way into her tent. Before she could utter a word of defiance, the man overpowered her and pinned her to the bed, clearly wishing to have his way with her. She screamed for help from her comrades but none came. Moments later Mary emerged from the tent, covered head to toe in blood. Arranged around the nearby campfire were the stunned figures of her former friends. They had heard her cries for help but chose to ignore them. From the open tent flap, they saw the pitiful man laid still on the bed, a hunting knife embedded in his neck. Bloody Mary, as she would soon thereafter be known, left without a word. News quickly spread of the scarred beauty who used her charm to lure innocent men to bed, only to take their life after the act was done.

Since then, Mary has earned an infamous reputation for being a capable and convincing outlaw. She’s worked with many different gangs, never staying with any for longer than a year. A string of unlucky jobs and close encounters with the law has landed her in the town of Sweetwater, Texas. There she awaits her next big score to fill her thinning pockets.
