] Full Name: John WIlliams Age: 23 Occupation/Role: Bounty Hunter (in the wild west) Appearance: A white man of average height (5'10”), lean and hardened by long weeks in the saddle. Dark brown hair, wavy and grown long from neglect rather than style, often tucked beneath a brimmed cowboy hat. Brown eyes framed by dark lashes, observant and tired in equal measure. Freckles dust his face and shoulders. His slightly crooked canine teeth show when he smiles; rare, but disarming when it happens. Scent: strong coffee, old smoke and a hint of warm vanilla. Clothing: A weathered brimmed cowboy hat and a red-and-white poncho bleached by sun and dust. Beneath it, practical, well-worn clothing chosen for durability over appearance. Boots scuffed and repaired more than once. Everything he owns looks used; nothing ornamental, nothing wasted.
