A Western. [canceled]

[ford-michigan]

Spoiler: An American Pastoral Scene

---

In the old west lies a small town stricken with drought and misfortune.
The residents have decided to make a journey to the east in search of greener pastures.
Along they way they encounter hardship and violence but they may still yet make it to better lands.
​

Backstory:
The small town enjoyed development for a decent while but one day the water ceased to flow through the surrounding lands. And as the residents of the town prepared their food stocks bandit attacks started. Seemingly these attackers knew exactly where the riches of the town lay. Now starved of the food and supplies needed to last the drought the townsfolk decide to pack up what they can and leave. Now on a long stretch of bright desert sand they ride out in search of far lands.​

Roles​

Town Resident: Townsfolk like shop owners, laborers, and bounty hunters. (0/∞) -depending on the backstory you can start off with different items or contribute in different ways to the group-​

Sheriff: The voice of law and reason in the group, although he seems a little shifty as of late. (0/1)​

Special/Other Characters: Some other character that does not apply to the other two roles. (?/?)​

Time of event: 23 and 24. I am thinking of a start time for both days around 1PM or 12AM EST (GMT-5).​

Update: Unless you want a specific backstory the role of town resident will be open for free (I will have the server without a password on event day).
I have also decided on around 1PM EST (GMT-5) for the start times on both days. If you wish for a different time tell me.​

I have a hard time deciding, so I'll just head for town resident when the event comes up. I've been thinking about it but have failed to make any specifics in terms of a character.

Just reminding y'all that if you have input please share it. Also for some clarification the event will be like this: a RP event focused around going from location to location on an infinite desert map. There will be gunfights where the actors for the attackers will shoot to miss allowing for more combat. I am also drawing heavy inspiration from Red Dead Redemption 2 and the scenes of long rides. I have also added a decent amount of music coming from RDR2. If you have any more questions please ask.

If you plan on attending, even if you are just going to join as townsfolk, please let me know on discord or here so I can adjust for stuff.​
