Augustus McClane

Augustus McClane (a.k.a. Gus)

Augustus “Gus” McClane, age 24, is in many ways his elder brother’s visual opposite. While he’s still decently tall he’s much more lanky than his sibling, giving off a wiry, hungry look. He’s also the only McClane that didn’t inherit their mother’s blonde locks, instead sporting dark slicked back do. Gus is a mean, ill-tempered cuss with a bad sense of humor, and the fact he’s usually had at least some liquor in him when he’s in town tends not to help. He’s not some ruthless cold blooded murder who townsfolk live in total fear of, but he is absolutely, well, an asshole, to be frank, and does have a well-earned reputation as somebody not to mess with. Augustus has pulled his piece on people as a threat, shot up furniture, and fired warning shots more than once. While he hasn’t ever simply gunned somebody so far, twice he and another hot-head have “taken it outside” after several recurring heated arguments. Both times his opponent drew first and were shot in “self defense,” so naturally he wasn’t charged with anything. While Gus loves his whisky, his main vice is cards and he’s a frequent sight at the poker and faro tables, where he’s… Consistently lucky. It’s also rumored that Gus and other local ne'er-do-wells are responsible for the occasional person finding their money or horses mysteriously missing, though there’s admittedly no proof. Still, while he’s a real piece of work, Gus does have his good points. He’s just as devoted to his siblings and the Rocking C Ranch as the rest of his family, works hard, is no coward (even if he certainly isn’t above resorting to underhanded tactics), and he’s a lot better with money than the rest of the McClane’s, despite his fondness for cards. Still, general consensus is that if there’s ever going to be a range war or a blood feud involving the McClanes in Brimstone it’s going to be because of this sumbitch.
