[i]The room was dark, for none of the lights had been on that day, save for a candle that illuminated the area, resting in the middle of a table.
The Dojo was darkened, as it was still the wee hours of the night, barely able to be called eleven. But, nobody was inside the actual building at that time, save for one man and one man alone.
The Frontiersman stood, and he stood tall. His duster was tattered and torn all g the bottom lip of it, which was lined with a layer of dirt that signified its age. It was a light brown shade, which managed to match his wide brimmed hat flawlessly.
His face was not covered by a shadow as it typically were, rather his partially charred mug was visible to all who look at the left side of his face. It was truly distracting compared to his handsome right half. A single, angelic white beard covered his face from the nose down, reaching from ear to ear, and covering a large part of his neck.
At either hip was a gun, a twin set of six-shooters. Either revolver was a dark black shade, the pair of exquisite firearms being a bit bulkier and heavier than any other, to throw off any who managed to disarm the Marshal. His guns were weighted so nobody would be accustomed to them but him.
Across his back, a shotgun of three barrels, forming an extended triangle of them. It had no stock, which allowed the cowboy to grip it and fire the uranium slugs singlehandedly. It had a pair of twin triggers, one below the first one on its handle.
Beneath the duster was armour and a jumpsuit. The armour was simply just plates of steel, each one connected by leather that covered his chest, and legs. The jumpsuit was green with black trimming, though it seemed to be tightly pressed against his body.
He sat, he waited, he trained. Push-ups, sit-ups, all of it, he was seemingly training physically for something. [/i]

*shalidor see you while roaming around and walks up to you* "What's going on here, friend?"
-
"Just some training." [i]JT told him as he pushed himself upwards. His prosthetic limbs were enough to have him stand upright with a single push. One of his arms, the left one, was an onyx black shade, with the cobalt depiction of a Cobalt Phoenix on it. His right arm was completely silver in colour, but bore a thin black strip along his wrist. [/i]
-
"Interesting. Why the prosthetics?"
-
"Ones a long story, the others a relic of an even longer story. You want to hear it man?"
-
"I'm not sure. I suppose I might have the time though."
-
"First one's from when I was roughly sixteen. I was in a gang, and my girlfriend at the time knew a guy who worked as a CyberMerc, basically a guy that installs augs to Cyborg's for the underworld. I got Stuffed (Augmented), and that's how I got the silver arm. Though this things my favourite thing in the world, and I've got some sweet abilities (Anchor/Grappling Hook, Tag Sight/Aimbot, Pincers/Deus Ex lethal melee)." "Second one's more recent. I found a portal... Somewhere, and had no idea what was happening. A person told me about some Covenant (Phoenix's Unborn - See "Bound By Twilight" for more info), and I joined up. On my initiation, I lost the arm, and some shit transpired that even I don't understand. Got a prosthetic for it." [i]The cowboy responds, as he lifted the black prosthetic, with the Cobalt Phoenix insignia. [/i] [spoiler]All of the stories I have him talk about happened in threads by the way, so he has reasons for having this stuff that isn't "He was born with it," or some excuse with backstory to have his shit. [/spoiler]

[spoiler]lol nice, both of my characters are just ones I've had in skyrim that were of some significance to me[/spoiler] "Sounds like you've had quite the life then, huh?"
-
"Yeah, had more adventures than I can count. It all started in a [b]Cyberpunk[/b] style place, according to modern terms..." [spoiler]He's been to 5-6 threads. If you ever want a story to read, he can give you a brief description lol. [/spoiler]
-
"Modern terms... I hardly know those, I'm not from a very 'modern' place..."
-
"You ever hear of Deus Ex? Friend of mine sent me a copy when I was, what, twenty four? That's apparently Cyberpunk, but where I'm from draws more from a mix of that and Far Cry: Blood Dragon, another game a friend sent me. Check them out some time, I've never really gotten the grip of them."
-
*A strange sound can be heard nearby as you are training. Not long after is the cry of two swords hitting each other, sparks flying from them. Then... silence. It continues again, and stops, as if it were in a loop. Of course, it wasn't, it was too real to come from a speaker or your mind, because it began to make your ears ring*
-
[i]The cowboy was both confused and annoyed with the noises, so eventually he seeks out to see what's making them. [/i]
-
*In the courtyard is Mortar. He has his sword in hand and doesn't seem to notice you as he summons forms of himself and begins sparring with them. He always seems to win, but the fights look like they could go either way.*
