Its set in the nearby area of Bewdley. Some names have been changed or switched round to make it fit in more. Anyway here's my background for the the Ville known as The Wyre and the two gangs that will be fighting in my campaign with a bit of background for each character. Let me know what you think. Hoping to have my first game later in the week. The Wyre Protective. A small farming community living in the ville known as The Wyre its a small ville that is hidden amongst the thick and verdant forest land that runs along the riverbanks of the Seven. Mostly living off of the forest they breed and live off herds of Wallabies that they have brought with them from the south lands when they migrated up into the middle lands. The Protective have a number of warrior bands chosen from the toughest and strongest of the many families that make up the community of the Wyre. The bands often spend weeks at a time away from the Ville as they range far and wide hunting down dangerous beast's that threaten the herds and marauding gangs coming out of The Rag Market who wish to scavenge in the pre collapse ruins for loot. The Stour Raider's Left to Right Dixon, Jess, Herb and Red Rum. Jess is the leader of one the group defending Wyre they simply call themselves the Stour Raiders. Jess though to look at is quite small in stature however she possesses a wiry strength and is very clever and quick thinking . All members Jess hand picks those who join the Stour raiders favouring those who can pick there way across the broken land quietly and efficiently. Equipped with her trusty shotgun and a strange pre war weapon she found whilst scouting a Ville known as the Port Jess ruthlessly defends the Wyre from outsiders. Dixon is Jess's second in command a tireless tracker and hunter he use's his crossbow to bring down his prey whether it be wild beast's, raiders or Sollus. Often Dixon takes the ears from his kills that he deems worthy keeping them on a thong tied around his neck. Herb is Dixon's older moodier brother another skilled hunter and forager who taught his little brother everything he knows. When Herb was a yob he was very experimental with the wild plants found in the wilds earning him the nickname Herb. This experimentation has proved invaluable knowing the best plants to make poultices and foul smelling remedies that supposedly fend off the wild beast and insects. Red Rum is the last surviving member of his family he was one of three brothers the older two Morgan and Captain both being killed by a raiding gang whilst protecting the Wallaby herds. Favouring getting up close and personal he loves nothing more than burying his red hafted axe into his enemies soft flesh earning him the nickname 'Red' for the bloody wounds he inflicts with it. The Razor's Left to Right Scurve, Bran, Bear and Raven. The Razor's are the remnants of a larger biker gang that used roam to roam and raid all over the middle lands. Falling upon hard times after an ambush by State troopers leaving over two thirds of the gang dead or captured. The Razor's flee west in the hope of licking there wounds and increasing there numbers and loot. Scurve is the leader of the Razor's now. Once the mechanic off the gang he doesn't think twice about using his trusty wrench to bash in skulls when his hand cannon fails to blowing hole big holes in things. Bran was the gangs fixer a dab hand at patching up the guys when wounded and always seems to have a stash of his home brewed medical concoctions to to fix people up when they need it. Bear is a little crazy when a kid his grandma used to read him stories from a history book she'd found in the ruins of house. It was all about a band of warriors that used to raid and pillage called Vikings ever since then thats all Bear has want to be. Hefting his axe and shield and wearing his horned helmet he loves nothing more than charging his enemies head on and hacking them into pieces. Raven is one of the newest members of the gang. Found in abandoned building the gang where planning on sleeping the night in. Raven was sneaky enough to steal a knife and a kill a member of the gang who was seeking to have his way with her. Scurve could see what a useful asset to the gang she could be and instead of seeking revenge upon her offered her a place amongst them giving the girl the dead gang members gear. Raven seeing an opportunity to live took it and is now a valued member. Edited by Brummie, Feb 26 2014, 08:28 AM.

Which you can still get some are a bit hit and miss. I picked him up for a few pound in an LGS that had loads of old figs on various racks.
