Hi there Shadow! Nice to meet you. What an impressive list. Maybe next time you should list the things you're not into - might shorten the list. ;) Still, I'm pretty sure you'll find your poison here. We'll meet for certain, as I can relate to some of the themes on your list. Have fun!
I'm pretty new here, but I'd still like to say welcome back. ^_^
Hehehe... I'll allow that, then. :D Who can ever say no to a wolf girl after all.
@POOHEAD189 - dwarf, viking, inhabitant of the local senior citizen's home, he will be anything I make him out to be (or she). I must admit my poison used to be fantasy, blood and gore. But hey, I've matured a bit - like a pretty decent and very smelly cheese. So, less blood and gore, more... other stuff. I can be poked for anything now. Since I started a couple a days ago I refound the taste for writing in here. Sparks my fantasy. The Mrs. will be happy 'bout that too.
Anyways, happy to be here and aching to get a story going. See ya!
So... this idea is kicked around for a while. It must've been waiting for me. I'll join, if you let me. My post-rate might be erratic, just like my writing style... ;) So, no worries, right?
Seriously, I'll post at least once a day. I'm certain that I can't keep my post length beneath at least five good sentences. Well, look at this intro, it keeps growing and growing. Anyways, shall I pm you first or do you want to do the honours?
Yup, start stirring up. :D I watched part of the series, and like the feel of it. As for roleplaying the story has a lot of potential. I'm sure I can come up with some interesting characters to add to the mix. I'll keep taps on this interest check, to see when it takes off. Ciao.

Backstory: Brian is the second son of Thomas O’Folliard Sr. and his wife Sarah. In his youth he found it tough living in the shadow of his elder brother Tom Jr. Thomas was a handsome kinda sort and good at anything he tried. Brian was not. His hair was unruly, bright red and he was rather gangly. Everything and anything he tried was doomed to fail.
With a bright future ahead of himself Tom Jr. decided to throw it all away. Driving his parents to despair the oldest son of the O’Foliards strayed from the straight and narrow. As a member of the Regulators during the Lincoln County War he met and befriended William Bonney, who later would be feared as Billy the Kid. As Billy formed a band of cattle rustlers, Tom joined him.
Thomas Jr. never returned home and he became a bona fide outlaw, hunted by lawmen and bounty hunters. His parents convinced that Brian should and could talk sense into Tom, send their second son on a mission to talk Thomas Jr. into coming home.
Brian finally, on the faithful morning of December 19th 1880, caught up with his brother in Fort Summer, New Mexico. As he rode into Fort Summer’s high street, he witnessed how his brother was gunned down by sheriff Pat Garret. After burying Tom in the local cemetery, Brian didn’t know what to do. He couldn’t very well return home with only a tale of, yet another failure, to tell.
Deciding that Tom’s fellow outlaws were to blame for his brother’s death, Brian started to hunt them down. He was particularly gunning for The Kid, but wasn’t very particular as it came to other outlaws he encountered. With no way to return to his parents, the only road ahead lead him towards gun fights, lynchings and many graveyards. Brian believed he had nothing left to live for and kept flinging himself at outlaws, hoping to be done with is sorry life. Surprisingly, he discovered that he had a knack for hunting down criminals and serving them bullets of justice.
Brian’s talent was discovered as he kept cashing in on the rewards set on the heads of outlaws, and some idiot made him marshal. He keeps sweeping the territories free of outlaws, but is a sorry and sour piece of s***, pardon my French.
Ack! Clock already came up with a house name for the sovereign of Maine. And to make matters worse: my Margaret’s mother is from that house. Tough marrying back into that house. 😂
