Edges & Hindrances

Belongings: Light (1) [In his years Preacher has collected some interesting items, such as his Peacemakers, which belonged to a certain unfortunate Town Marshal. He also has an exceptional horse blessed with high speed and a healthy dose of smarts. There is also his hand-written, leather-bound bible translated into Latin by St. Gerome.] Keen (3) [Preacher has trained himself to be constantly aware of everything around him, and take notice of things others ignore. This gives him quite an edge in any given situation. Add +2 to any Cognition rolls.] Thick Skinned (3) [You don't live long in the Weird West by being soft. Preacher may ignore one level of penalty modifiers per wounded area.] Two-Fisted (3) [Preacher was blessed with the gift of ambidexterity, the ability to use both hands equally well. This helps make him a decidedly deadly gunfighter. Preacher ignores the -4 modifier for using his off-hand, because he has none.] Veteran of the Weird West [Preacher's been through many trials, and has experienced a lot in his time. He still carries baggage though, especially when it comes to the walking dead. For every man he kills he has to be sure they aren't coming back, he must be sure their brains are destroyed. If he can't get to the corpse in time, he'll wait at the poor sod's grave, just to be sure. If a friend dies he'll bury them, and wait to see if they come back. If they do and their once-mortal owner holds dominion, he'll allow them to exist. If not, he'll free them of their torture with a bullet to the head.] Bloodthirsty (-2) [It was the thrill of the battle that rekindled the flame in Preacher's spirit, and it's a love he hasn't lost. Preacher is particularly viscious in battle, unwilling to stop until he is the last man standing.] Grim Servant O' Death (-5) [There's just something about Preacher, something that has to do with death. His entire life he's attracted trouble, and it doesn't look to be tapering off anytime soon either.] Loyal (-3) [Preacher has very few people he can call friends, but to those that lucky enough to carry the title, Preacher is faithful unto death.]

Preacher is a handsome, 6'1" tall human male with a lean, muscular build of about 175 pounds. He wears a dark brown, rawhide leather duster over long sleeved black clericals complete with white collar. Twin leather gunbelts hang from his hips, criss-crossing above his groin, creaking ever-so-often when he moves. He has hard, chiseled features and dark, piercing eyes. His short, ash brown hair is well groomed and his skin has a healthy olive tan.

History

Born in Texas in 1841, Johnathan Peter Miller lived a life of violence and sin. Beginning his gunfighting career at the age of 17, he and his boys forged a grim and bloody name for themselves among the community. For more'n 10 years they stuck together like brothers, always watching each-other's backs. They were unstoppable, until the setup in '67... A band of Lawmen had been tracking the posse's progress for some time, and they finally worked out an opportunity to make their move. Hiring Miller's posse through a false rail baron, the band set up a bloody ambush inside the stockyard they were supposed to infiltrate. In a hail of gunfire, all of Johnathan's hombres were cut down, including him. He took two rounds in the gut, but remained conscious and crawled his way into hiding before passing out. Unable to recover his body, but overconfident in their abilities, the Lawmen declared him dead. When Johnathan awoke he found himself alone in a church, two nasty bullet scars gracing his belly. He inquired about how he'd gotten there, and who had helped him; but the few people he came across offered little help. They were also quite hesitant to speak with him, and some seemed almost afraid. He learned of the proclamation of his death, and decided to hide out across the border for a time, heading to a quaint, english-speaking village. Though alive in body, Johnathan was dead inside. Several times he found himself contemplating suicide, but couldn't bring himself to it. He also noticed that he would frequently awaken in an unfamiliar area, not far from where he'd gone to sleep. This did little to help his disposition, and only made him wonder moreso about continuing to live his life. Then the Padre at the village's church introduced him to the good book and religion, which seemed to fill the void and quelch the flames inside him. He hung up his guns and renounced his violent ways, turning his life over to God, become a priest in the small Mexican church. For five years he lived his life in the small house of worship, performing masses and other priestly duties; as well as learning to speak and read Latin. But the flame inside of him still burned, although dimly. He even took on the nickname of Preacher due to popular terminology used when speaking to him. Then one day the world handed him another blow. In the middle of mass a band of outlaws raided the church, cutting down the Padre and ruthlessly slaughtering everyone in attendance. Seeing no other alternative, Preacher moved to his living quarters and ripped open the floorboards beneath his bed, bringing out his retired weaponry. In a bloody streak of justice, Preacher systematically slaughtered every last member of the gang. The fighter in him had never died, and the combat made him feel alive again. With the church and it's congression in ruins, Preacher set off across the border and back into the United States, letting the path opened before him run its own course...

Worst Nightmare

Preacher's worst nightmare is to re-live the events of his posse's ambush. He blames himself for his inability to save their lives, and it hurts him to remember it. To watch his friends slaughtered before his eyes and being helpless to stop it does something to a man...
