Account Name: Tengu


Basic Character Information
Name: Hardin S. Elzy
Nickname: N/A
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Affiliation: Bounty Hunter
Threat: 0
Achievements:
Profession:
Marksman
The profession of Marksman provides sound experience and insight in calculating range, distance and wind elements and their impact on the path of a projectile. It is a general trait that applies to guns, slingshots, cannons, rifles and the like. People without this profession will have little to no luck in firing cannonballs where they are supposed to go under normal battle conditions. A marksman will be able to start with more ranged weapons than normal. They also do not need to pay upkeep for their ammunition.

Gunsmith
A gunsmith is a person who renovates, modifies or repairs firearms and ammunition. Like an inventor, a gunsmith has the creativity to alter a gun or its ammunition in order to make them more effective but lacks the know-how to apply this on a broader level. In this case, Elzy is able to build and modify firearms, specifically pistols.
Position:


Physical Appearance
Height: 6'2''
Weight: 163 Pounds
Hair: Medium length and swept upwards to the front, dark brown in color.
Eyes: Bluish Grey in color, have an calm air to them in most cases.
Clothing/Accessories: Elzy dresses somewhat simply, with his basic attire being comprised of a collared shirt with the sleeves rolled up and the collar popped, a pair of loose slacks, and a scarf, with one side fulled down longer than the other. The colors of these vary, but he generally likes the color combination of brown, crimson, and gold. Along with these, he wears a plain brown leather belt, and brown loafers. His most noticeable accessory is the x-shaped holster that starts midway down his torso and ends at his waist line. In it, he holds 4 pistols, 2 six-shooters on the bottom holsters, and 2 single-shots on the upper holsters.
General Appearance:
Despite his substantial stature, Elzy is a just a step above being lanky, and only has a bit of lean muscle over his body. His legs are slightly longer than most in proportion to his torso, but his looser clothing obscures this. Except for below his knees, the hair on his arms and legs are thin and white, and can only really be seen on close inspection. His face is angular and long, with a slender, pointed nose, and thin, arched eyebrows. He normally stands with a slight curve in his back, and walks in long, exaggerated steps, as if he was walking with a cowboy's swagger.

The Character
Personality:
Calm, cool, and collected are the words that define Elsy on a normal basis. With no major quirks, he is able to fit in rather well, and form quick alliances to get things taken care of. He tends to think a bit highly of himself and is rather cocky, but this rarely manifests outwardly under normal circumstances.

Although he is in no way sadistic, firing his pistols and hitting his target is pure ecstasy for him. As a bounty hunter, he feels no strife maiming, or even killing anyone who has made themselves an enemy of the law. That said, he is not a fan of absolute justice, and to a certain extent, he respects some pirates. His main grudge with them is if they kill, steal, or generally do anything to civilians, not really minding those that fight and steal from the marines and other pirates.

Elzy is motivated by revenge, or at least that is what he will tell you if you ask. In reality, his father that he claims to be avenging had a rather shallow relationship with him due to the circumstances of his work. This has led to a romanticism of the memory of his father and half-truths told to himself regarding their few interactions they actually had. In reality, his desire to get out of his dead end job on the rather dull island that he was born on has drove him to become a bounty hunter.

Generally, he is a well-adjusted individual in most aspects other than those mentioned, and a rather agreeable individual.
Hometown: Ironmine Island, West Blue
History:
The son of a swordsman bounty hunter, Elzy was born into a world where most of his time was spent being the man of the house while his father was away. At this time, he discovered pistols and pistol shooting, which quickly became his pastime of choice, growing more proficient at gunslinging every day. When his father would return home, they would live lavishly for a short while each time, before soon returning to their normal, simple habits while he went to find another sizable bounty to collect.

This went on for several years, before his father, Hardin S. Lyle, was killed by a man who had several of his subordinates killed by Lyle for cash. It took several months for the news to reach home, along with the sword he had used for so many years. Things became increasingly difficult after the loss, and Elzy and his siblings were forced to help provide to keep the family afloat.

Elzy took a job at a metal refining plant, working long days in the heat of the stuffy, unventilated building that the metal was smelt in. The work was hard, but it paid well, and he was able to provide most of the beli the family needed, and even got himself a pistol of two with the extra he got on the side. At this point, he started to tinker with guns himself, and became a novice gunsmith. In memory of his father, he had his sword melted down, and used it to produce two iron six-shooter pistols.

Life went on in this manner, and it wasn't really a bad life at all, it was just... lacking. Eventually, the death of his mother to natural causes is what drove him to the edge, getting off of work each day and heading out to drink his sorrows away. It was there in, in the seedy local bar that he met someone that would change the course of his life- Wilson Creek.

Not really a pirate, Creek was a crook that did most of his deals on dry land, and had one major distinguishable part of his appearance- an two crossed slashes on his left cheek, cut in a way that one could see his teeth. Although he could confirm nothing, there was something off about the man to Elzy, something just made him itch when ever he saw the sonbitch.

Something about Creek compelled Elzy to look into his father's past, via his journals and logs that he had left behind. What he found shook him to the core. The slashes on Creek's face were given to him by his father, and he had always thought that he held a major grudge due to them. They clashed several times, with both parties leaving majorly unscathed each time. That hadn't stopped his father from worrying, and had always suspected that Creek would have him killed someday, whether it be personally or through one of his many associates.

It was most likely Creek that had killed Elzy's father.

Loaded gun by his hip, Elzy went to the bar, ready to kill the man that had caused him so much trouble. Approaching the middle aged man, who was sloppily drunk at the time, he immediately drew his gun fast, shooting at the hip, aiming at the man's head, but hesitated to fire. Was it the right thing to do he wondered. Because he had only drawn and aimed from the hip, he went unnoticed, and decided to go with a different approach, walking right up to Creek, who was shotgunning a large mug of dark beer. In his stupor, he didn't notice the man who approached him. Shoving his gun into Creek's mouth, against the side of his right cheek, Elzy fired, blowing off a large chunk of his right cheek.

He wasn't just going to kill Creek, he was going to destroy him. By the time he was done with Creek, he would be begging for death. He was going to tear down the criminal empire that bastard had formed one piece at a time.

Leaving Creek bleeding and moaning, Elzy dashed out faster than he had came, quickly getting off of the island in a small merchant ship that he had convinced the owner to let him ride to his next destination. He was done being a mill worker, he would live off of bounties from then on, while searching out and destroying everything that Creek bastard had ever held dear. Wilson "Cheekless Bastard" Creek would invite death by the time he was done with him.

Abilities and Possessions
Combat: Being a master of pistols, Elzy uses them in a manner that is seldom seen, with his fighting style comprised almost entirely from quick shots from the hip. He is well versed in this, and is able to shoot as effectively as any other gunman in this manner. Also, if he does decide to shoot in a more conventional manner, his accuracy increases exponentially, despite his lack of taste for it. A somewhat cool fighter with a flair for dramatics, he will shoot to kill from any range, and prefers to put his personal touch as he fires, whether it be a different way to hole the gun, a one liner, an expression, or a gesture.
