Itinerant

Hexslinger & Gun-Doc

"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you."
- Jules Winnfield, Pulp Fiction

Qualities

Gunslinger's Code

The gunslinger is the law in a time when there is no law. He must aid the weak, help the injured, uplift the downtrodden and fill criminal and cruel motherfuckers with as much lead as their raggedy bodies will hold. He is a man of honor, but rarely sticks around to collect on the gratitude of those he helps.

• Advantages: Well respected by those he helps, and gets a quick reputation. With respect to the gunslinger, those who are in need of help or generally life lawful lives are considered Friendly when dealing with Social Modifiers. Additionally, the character receives a bonus die on all Intimidation tests against those who are threatening, abusing, exploiting or otherwise antagonistic toward lawful folk.
  
• Disadvantages: Gunslingers don't deal well with those who are antagonistic towards lawful folk. When dealing with them, the gunslinger must make a Composure (3) Test in order to avoid treating them with open contempt and hostility. He also gains a point of Notoriety everytime he walks away from a situation where someone needs help.

Positive Qualities

• Code of Conduct (5): Gunslinger's Code
• Guts (5): +2 dice pool to resist fear and intimidation, including magical fear.
• Juryrigger (10): May make an appropriate Mechanics skill test with the Build/Repair table to do the following:
  • Jury-rig a destroyed device so that it will operate just one last time.
  • Tweak a device to function at a rating one higher than normal for one turn.
  • Coax extra performance from a vehicle or drone's components, increasing its Sensors/Handling by +1
  • Improvise a one-shot device or weapon from various pieces or parts.
• Magician (15): Christian Theurgy magical tradition
• Mentor Spirit (5): Wise Warrior: +2 dice for Combat and Detection spells; -1 die to all tests if acting dishonorably, until the character atones

Negative Qualities

• Distinctive Style (-15): +3 dice to identify, trace or locate per distinctive trait recalled (maximum +6)
  • Preacher Man: Itinerant wears his duster, gunbelts, boots and hat wherever he goes. But truly distinctive is the priest's collar under his neckerchief, the lapel pin showing St. George the Dragonslayer and the beat-up old Bible he frequently quotes from.
  • Extremely Clean-Cut: In an era in which concerns of appearance are usually trumped by the struggle to survive, Itinerant stands out with his perfectly cut hair and shaven square jaw.
  • Impeccable Manners: Itinerant's use of "gentleman's manners" stands out in the normal rough-and-tumble circles he moves in.
• Geas (-10): Incantation: Biblical Quotes
• Wanted (-10): Because of his tendencies towards helping the poor and downtrodden against those in power, Itinerant has more than a few bounties on his head, meaning he has to deal with the occasional bounty hunter coming to collect.
