Callous, cold, quick to anger, and quick to the trigger all describe Westley. Westley’s Irish blood runs strong in his veins, and his anger and rage have typically landed him in hot water that he’s rarely been opposed to fighting his way out of. He wasn’t always so brash, but Westley has endured things no man should have to and has long since grown to believe his attempts at leading a decent life will lead to naught but ruin for himself and those surrounding him. As a result he’s grown into a selfish and aggressive man who tends to stick out only for himself and is motivated purely by greed and self interest. Once upon a time, in a younger man's day, Westley could have been called idealistic, kind, courageous, even perhaps a hero. In fact, on the day he turned 18 Westley left home to join the Union. Westley’s service record was remarkable, and the medals he’d brought home supported this. But it was the darker things that he brought home that left more of a mark on his life than medals or valor. The things he’d experienced in the war left scars too deep for any to see, scars that would twist and distort how Westley would see the world and navigate its choices. The boy who’d left was far from the damaged man who’d returned. It was definitive to say the least that going to war had changed the trajectory of Westley’s life in ways that not much else could.[/color][/indent][/indent] [sup][color=Gold]______________________________________________________________________________________________[/color][/sup][sub][sub][b][h3][color=black] " D E S C R I B E Y E R S E L F F O R M E , Y E A H ?

He wears an eye patch over his left eyes from an injury he suffered during his time as a soldier. He has long blonde hair and sports a medium length goatee and a slightly pointed mustache. Westley’s gear and clothing all show age and wear with much of his clothing itself being patchwork. The two most well maintained possessions would be his trusty rifle and the revolver he keeps at his side, both of which shine in the light but also sport signs of generous usage. Nothing else on Westley’s person indicates any sense of value, even his hat is worn and ragged from the many years it’s protected him from the sun.[/color][/indent][/indent] [sup][color=Gold]______________________________________________________________________________________________[/color][/sup][sub][sub][b][h3][color=black] " S O W H E R E Y E B E E N , W H A T S Y E R P A S T ?

"[/color][/h3][/b][/sub][/sub] [indent][indent][color=gray]Westley was born in 1844 to two parents of Irish immigrants who settled in the greater Cincinnati area. He was the youngest of two and his family was catholic and as such struggled with many aspects of immigrating to the US. the Mastons were a family of simple farmers who tilled the field and spent the majority of their time handling the responsibilities that came along with their small homestead and as such led a simple life. In 1846 Westley’s father left home to participate in the Mexican American war, it was his belief that it was their duty as aspiring citizens and immigrants. Unfortunately two years after he’d left to fight the Mastons received news their father had fallen in battle. Westley was only 4 when he’d lost his father and the Maston family’s course took a turn for darker roads. Growing up without their father made life difficult, Westley’s older brother, William, had to step up and assume many of the responsibilities left behind by their father. Westley himself was also required to step up and share this burden with his brother as soon as he was able. Their mother unfortunately struggled with coping with the loss of their father and the relationship between the three grew tenuous over the years. Westley grew resentful of his mother and the responsibilities thrust upon him from such an early age and constantly found himself at odds with his brother who had more sympathy for the plight of their mother. All the while their mother had become a shell of a person after the death of their father. As the years grew so did the divide growing between Westley and the rest of his family. In 1861 at the start of the civil war Westley demanded to be allowed to serve. It was always his belief that his father’s sacrifice had been him doing his duty and believed likewise that it was his duty to serve as war was once again breaking out. His mother and brother were in stark contrast to this opinion, having blamed the late Maston’s sense of duty for his untimely death and the burdens that were left behind. What little semblance of a familial relationship they had soon began to fray under the tensions created by these differences. Westley was not allowed to join the Union until 1862 after he turned 18 and declared that his family no longer had any say over what he chose to do. Westley felt no need to look back as he left home behind to join the Civil War. War, duty, hell. Westley was abruptly humbled upon his enlistment with the Union. Life as a soldier was far from what he’d grown up romanticizing as a kid and it was hard to imagine how his father had determined that this was what mattered. Regardless he put his all into it and turned out to be a remarkable soldier, but the things he was forced to witness would forever retain a place in his soul. Westley remained with the Union until its eventual victory and was discharged with a handful of accolades and medals, but also a handful of injuries and a fractured mind. On returning home he’d expected the reception of a war hero, instead his mother and brother demanded he leave. Words were exchanged and things escalated, to this day it’s hard for Westley to explain just how his brother ended up dead, but he did. After that Westley left, as far as his mother was concerned both of her sons had died that day, she’d said so herself. The years that followed were remarkably cruel to Westley, any endeavor he attempted often ended in failure and he found it difficult to maintain any sort of relationship with people. For years he merely wandered from place to place doing whatever he needed to keep himself kicking. Eventually, as things grew harder, the list of lines that he once told himself he’d never cross was steadily growing smaller and smaller. Eventually he picked up a gun and took to bounty hunting when necessary, sometimes an outlaw would be at the end of the barrel, other times maybe a lone unsuspecting fool that would provide Westley the resources to get by for a few more days. Westley tried to be moral when he could but when survival was on the line he found himself often willing to sacrifice those morals to keep himself kickin’. Regardless he did his utmost to keep things quiet, avoiding the idea of any sort of large crimes or extensive robbery. As time has marched on Westley has found himself spending more time bounty hunting and pursuing security or mercenary work. For the most part he’s merely traveled like a nomad, refusing to place down any sort of long term roots for fear of the chaos and calamity that tends to follow him.

The recent caravan he’d been traveling with had been uneventful, lucrative even. But they were growing familiar with Westley, attached even. Both of these things spoke to a darker anxiety deep in Westley that drove him to quickly determine that at their next stop he’d have to find alternative employment. Westley was adept in many skills that were invaluable on the road and thus typically had no trouble finding a caravan hiring protection. Alternatively he might spend a few days resting his legs, give his horse some time off the long road, and check up on the local bounty board for some short term work. All in all Westley found himself in Amistad by chance, convenience, fate perhaps? An inexplicable pull westward had been drawing Westley further and further west but it was hard to really determine why. And so Westley found himself in Amistad awaiting the fingers of fate to work their way across the threads of destiny.
