If we so happen to get a hold of that fellow I feel almost inclined to curse your nut busting bounty hunter to a Civil War vet, of the rebel sort.

Note these curses are all in jest, just random firings off from my mind.

I think that if there were to be a rebel, it would be fitting that I would be he.

I just hope you are in the right mindset. Remember that the Civil War has been done for about twenty years now, even if you stepped in at an unreasonably young age you are getting to be old now and have likely spent most of your time after the northern aggression just trying to find a life out in the frontier. Priorities shift as years pass by.

That's not overly true, I think Drummer Boys were about 10 and the youngest soldiers in the 13-15 range. I think I read somewhere the youngest soldier wounded was like 12 or something. So he would be old, but he'd be 32-35ish.

Doesn't quite change my point, as you said he's still old and in the most extreme cases he spent more of his life a Westerner than a Southerner, which really pulls away from the character type I was thinking of.

Actually this draws on something I figure I should find out, how realistic do you guys want this to be?

krogothwolf · 06-21-2010, 10:16 PM

Yeah I suppose. I keep thinking 32's not that old, but for the time it sorta is.

I don't care too much about whether it's strong on realism/historical accuracy or not, as long as it's at least mostly believable.

I certainly was aiming for about as good as I could get without having to take a trip to my local library. Though I was definitely going to stay modern in the language, I don't think I could make any situation serious when a character exclaims, "dag-nabbit." Out of a parody sense.
