Rocking C Ranch

There are several outfits around Brimstone, ranging in herd size and competency of their employees. The Rocking C Ranch sadly won’t be taking the #1 spot for the former, but the dozen and change cowpokes it has under its employ have a reputation for being some of the most loyal, hard-working hands west of the Mississippi when it comes to the latter. Well, depending on who you ask, anyhow. Lots of ranches say the exact thing about their own, after all. Still, while a bit exaggerated and puffed up by bravado, in the case of the Rocking C cowboys it’s mostly rightfully earned. They’ve got another mostly rightfully earned reputation as something of a rowdy bunch whenever they ride into town on their days off, but only two of their number could be said to be full-on troublemakers.   Still, while Lotte Castle is the owner of the Rocking C and indisputably the one in charge, for most the rank and file folk people of Brimstone when they think of that outfit they think of the McClanes. Five siblings, each of them a skilled roper and rider, form a core that the rest of the Rocking C cowboy’s fan out from, and when cow punchers from Ms. Castle's ride into town there's almost always at least one McClane among their number.   Besides this solid core there are usually a few more folk on Ms. Castle's payroll, but who they are and their exact numbers vary by the season, though they average around four or five total, mostly consisting of drifting cowpokes and the occasional down on their luck miner with decent equestrian ability.

The Caldwell Devil

Rumor

"I be tellin' you my cousin lost two o' his longhorns ta the devil a week ago." from one person.   "My brother knows someone that saw a circuit rider snatched right off horse about a month ago." from another.   "My good friend saw the devil himself. Barely made it out alive. He says it was part crocodile, part, bison, and part bear." from yet another.
