# Deputy 1




# FC: Hamabe Minami










♡coded by uxie♡







Ethnicity: East Asian / Japanese
Age: 22

1729046697918.png
Kaoru might just have a pretty face, but her personality can spice her overall profile. She can be bubbly and enthusiastic, but she can keep secrets like a rock hidden underneath water. Kaoru does have some kind of temperament, and is quite poetic in her work. She has some lash outs, or some dark glances, but that's all because her intelligence proves how much she knows. Being an extrovert, Kaoru knows how to see into people's emotions and can be really empathetic and understanding.
Backstory/History: Being thrown out, shipped away from her very country, Kaoru was young and raised into Amberstone ever since her parents sold her out for a ton of yen. She was forced to be used as a woman slave, but after becoming of a certain age, she gained some privilege and was allowed to acquire firearms and be able to take a job submission some sheriff was sending out. A deputy role. She didn't really understand why they let her have a job- or whoever that was controlling Amberstone gave her life a final spark of hope until after a few later years. Personal added reasons with Cooley.
Relations: Mother and Father unknown. Ex Boyfriend.

Name: Leslie Allen Hodges
Appearance:
Leslie Hodge Pic.jpg
Age: 28
Ethnicity: Black American
Personality: Quiet and calculating. He often prefers solitude but is willing to work with people as long as their goals look like his goals. He is deeply desensitized to violence, to the point horrific scenes that would turn the stomach of others fail to unsettle him. He has a deep-seated distrust of authority.
History: Born into slavery, Leslie was a slave on a plantation with his mother and two of his siblings, Moses and Jacob. After the Civil War, Leslie cast his lot with some of the free black cattle drivers of the deep south, where he found success. Leslie fled to Amberstone after a run in with a crooked mayor led to him shooting the mayor dead in the street. He hoped Amberstone could be his place to resettle and plant roots. When Sheriff Cooley posted his notice for a deputy for hire, Leslie took the job, believing it was his best shot at lying low and maybe having a life that settles down.
Relationships (WIP): Leslie does not fully trust authority figures, making his relationship with Sheriff Cooley sometimes distant.

Name: Lazarus Love
Appearance:
Age: 21
Ethinicity: White
Personality: Brave, maybe a bit reckless, still has notions of chivalry and "Southern Honor" even after the war. Generally a nice guy but has a bit of a temper.
History: Joined up with the Confederacy when he was 13 and got made a drummer boy. Stayed the whole duration even when the supply situation got really bad. By then about 3 years later he was issued a rifle and put in the line of battle but he was old enough to know that was pretty much it for the war. Now he's just trying to make the most of the situation and maybe get a bit of excitement back in his life. By the time he was old enough to fight the war was done.
Relations: He's got a girlfriend.
 
Name: Arthur Cooley

Appearence:
Seth-Bullock-deadwood-19908775-1707-2560.jpg

Ethnicity: White

Age: 39

Personality: Though Sheriff Arthur is a very notable man, features of his personality are less noteworthy. He is none too loud nor too quiet. Too angry nor too passive. An orator in his finest moments and reminiscent of a backwater cowpoke in the next. Though calculating and brooding at times, he often appears to be genial and selfless. He is known for his love of Amberstone, mostly because he professes it every chance he gets to whoever's willing to listen - having not fought in the war or joined any of the militias formed in the area, serving the town full-time throughout, his only discernable loyalties are to the town, it's laws, and himself. He's also widely regarded for his talents as a shootist - during his career, he has killed four men and bested many more in dozens of gunbattles over the course of his two decades long career. Because of this, only the bravest or most ignorant of criminals would openly challege his rule of law - some do so only with the motive to prove their superior prowess to the reputed gunfighter. Only once has Sheriff Arthur lost a shooting contest, during which he was almost slain - that was fifteen years ago.

Name: Willard “Will” Landry

Appearance:
4sXegvS.jpeg


Age: 61

Ethnicity: White

Personality: A very stern man who adheres to traditional values, Will is proud of his Southern heritage, frequently falling back on those beliefs to justify his actions. In some cases, he even weaponizes it, particularly in his role as a lawman. It has earned him a reputation as a hard-but-fair enforcer. However, his tough exterior is punctuated by his inner demons; he still holds a grudge against the North for their despicable victory in the war. That bitterness festers beneath the surface, contributing to the perception that Will is an old curmudgeon who should retire.

History: Will is a product of his upbringing. Born in the mountains of Tennessee, he and his three brothers were quickly indoctrinated by the Southern mindset—a sense of regional pride and superiority, a strong belief in states’ rights, preserving slavery as a cornerstone of their economy, and defending their ‘way of life’ against Northern aggression. These philosophies helped shape Will’s ideals, ultimately leading him to pursue law enforcement as a profession. He felt it was a way to contribute to the cause and bring justice to a land overrun with vagrants.

Landry began his career as a railroad guard, overseeing the daily operations and providing intervention at the first sign of trouble. His work ethic eventually earned him a promotion to railroad detective, however, he failed to find purpose in his new position. That’s when he packed his bags and settled in Amberstone. He would spend the prime of his life in this provincial town, earning a living and serving its people in many roles, including deputy marshal, interim sheriff, judge, and executioner. Will brought in countless criminals under his watch; no one was beyond the law.

However, the thrill of the chase didn’t come without consequences. The onset of the Civil War proved particularly frustrating, considering he was too old to serve. He was left to watch from the sidelines, receiving news from couriers and weary travelers passing through town. As a result, Will grew increasingly restless…

… that’s when a gang of bandits hunted down and murdered his best friend and partner, Tom Lillard.

Everything changed in the wake of his friend’s death. Will became more jaded, more intolerant of himself and the world around him. He enacted harsher methods in an effort to find those responsible for Tom’s death. It turned into an obsession, though he was careful to conceal it from those around him, including Sheriff Cooley. In the end, it wasn’t the only reason he continued to serve as a deputy into his old age; he felt it was a way to honor the memory of his fallen comrade.

Relations: Will has worked alongside Arthur Cooley for years, developing a friendly rapport with the other man. Despite their camaraderie, they still frequently butt heads over their ideological differences.
