Whiskey John Metzen

Whiskey John Metzen was born and raised in the frontier town of Small Burrow. A renowned sharpshooter, the Aves earned his nickname from his love of sipping aged whiskey and sharing legendary tales of his adventures as a member of Brimstone, magically trained monster slayers for hire.
 
As is typical with Aves naming traditions, Whiskey John Metzen was named after the Rashemi John Metzen, a successful adventurer and poet who traveled the Crestfallen Mountains during the early 500s EoIF. After the unfortunate loss of Whiskey John’s nest at a young age, John and his father moved to Small Burrow on the edge of the Northern Wildwood. A skilled hunter and trapper, John was taught to be resourceful, self-reliant, and shoot with deadly accuracy.   This skill with firearms caught the attention of the controversial Brimstone, a faction of magic-wielding sharpshooters and bounty hunters trained to engrave runic markings, known as Utterance, on their bullets and bodies. With his trusty six-shooter “Smoke,” Whiskey John brought justice to the surrounding area, hunting down bandit organizations and dangerous creatures that threatened innocent folk who could pay his fee.   However, despite the often rancorous work, he held onto his sense of compassion, eventually retiring from the Brimstone in hopes of escaping its stigmata.

I don't know why, but now I love the concept of a bird gunslinger.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. -John, 3:16
