History: Garsin took up the job of a blacksmith in his surviving settlement. It was a small one but it was sturdy. they had fresh water from a mountain and a mine close-by that they used to mine ore and make metal. The population was only around thirty or so people, so when it came to a fight, there wasn't much for them to hold their ground on. Garsin then took it upon himself to make armor for the few people that, and himself, that were able to defend the town. It was just in time as well. By the time he had finished issuing the custom pieces, they were attacked by a bunch of bandits looking to control the mines. The residence only had 9 men who could fight , but none of them had any guns that were an automatic and they were seriously outnumbered four to one. Still they held their ground, until the bandits sent a group to flank in from behind, killing anyone in their way. Garsin's small force fell into a panic to protect to double back and protect the people, but in their frenzy they were easier to cut down and half of the bandits still remaining. The last two remaining were Garsin and his brother, Drake. Over time, and careful maneuvering between the two, they were able to kill of the last of the bandits, but at too high of a cost. Garsin was badly injured and his brother was fatally shot in the gut. There were no survivors in the town, but Garsin. He treated his wounds as much as he could, and although he needed rest, he put himself to work. He made a mass grave for the towns people and individual ones for the other defenders. He placed their helmets on poles above their graves, breaking the respirators so no one would take them. Then he gathered some supplies, and left.

As for the bandits, news travels when 40 of you men don't come back.

One note about your character, you can't start with a rifle such as that. Too powerful.

:)

[evershadow]

Howdy ONL; not yet but always on the lookout.

Jollan; Nice character. But as ONL said, that rifle has to go.

[Jollan]

Fine by me, I wan't planning on using it for a bit till he got ammo for it. it was gonna be a over-glorified club, haha. i'll take it out. I'll say it broke during the bandit fight.

point also taken, haha. for some reason during making the character I had completely forgotten about that. I do that sometimes... could still use 30-06 but still, I don't have the rifle for him now.

[salamimike]

I think shotguns would be the easiest to make ammo for. Not much perfection has to go into it. pretty much anyone can make custom loads (And looking at youtube people do)
The main difficult bit is the powder and primer but even then its a lot easier to make then handgun or rifle rounds.

[ONL]

That, or arrows for bows. Or rocks for slings. But a shotgun is better for obvious reasons :P

Top tip
How to make blackpowder
Charcoal, Sulphur and Potassium Nitrate
All can be bought in any gardening store

So grab your muskets!
When the world comes to an end we will eventually be using them!

[Jollan]

hah, my uncle brought over a musket to shoot before. it was fun...

[evershadow]

ONL; Just as a quick point, shotguns are not necessarily better than a bow and arrow. I'd pick a gun over a bow and arrow but I'd definitely pick a bow and arrow over a shotgun.

[salamimike]

Looks like we got our very own Hit Girl in the Rp
