Look how badass you look above >:3 The picture is what you're wearing and the video is from a show called Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. That's your fighting style, kinda odd for a bounty hunter but what the hey, you kick ass ;D

BTW, there's a part in the beginning that's kinda of disgusting, so if you don't like any of that stuff you may want to skip it.


~~~~~~~~~

Thomas Crane and also known as the notorious bandit, the'Crow', a wanted criminal for murder, smuggling and illegal operations on Pandora. This man was wanted by many people, especially bounty hunters, such as you were. You stood quietly as you leaned against a street lamp, you had your holocommunicator in your hand as you read your contract once more. The blue light illuminated your dark mask and made it light up, but it still didn't show your (e/c) eyes. They were focused on the profile that you held, this man was dark and morbid, the things you had seen from him on previous hunts. Bodies hanging from the ceiling with giant hooks through their torsos, most of their limbs were torn off and every single one of their heads were gone. You cringed just by the thought of it.

You stood alone outside a nearby pub, hoping to gather some information from the passersby. You were good at eavesdropping even in this rain that poured down onto you. Everyone was trying to reach for cover, but your cloak and hood covered most of your body so you didn't get wet, but eventually after looking over your holo you placed it back in your pocket and went inside.

Once you closed the door behind you, people took notice of how dreary and dark you looked, they watched you as you walked over to the bar, you never even took down your hood. Many pairs of eyes followed your form, and despite how gloomy you looked people couldn't take their eyes off you, a strange aura surrounded you as you made your way to the bartender. He placed his polished glass underneath the counter and watched as you stopped at the other side of the bar.

"Can I help you?" He said solemnly. You placed some cash on the table hoping he'd accept it and give you the information you needed.

"I'm looking for this man," you show him the picture of your target, "do you know anything about the 'Crow'?"

The bartender looked over the holo very carefully, twisting his head and his eyes narrowing. Maybe it was possible he did know something. He slid it back over to you.

"Aye, I've heard of 'im." He had a thick Irish accent. (IDK if they have this accent in the series. I just like to listen to them talk :3) "Some of his men broke in here not long ago demanding we give 'em cash."

"And?"

The man looked around his bar.

"Well look at the place lass, it's still a mess from when they came in." He said as he leaned against the wooden counter top. You turned to see broken glass still on the floor, some blood plats and a couple of bottles that were smashes on the wall, the smell still lingered.

"Do you know where they might have gone? I need to find this man as soon as possible." You say as you return your gaze the barman. He shook his head 'no'.

"Sorry lass, " he said. You sighed heavily and pulled your cape over your shoulders to hide your chest from view. If he didn't know then it was useless to stay here.

"Thank you sir."

You were about to turn when he spoke again, and when he did he caught your interest quickly.

"However, I did 'ear about some assassin goin' after the man as well."

"Do you know who is after him? Maybe he can help me."
