Some say that there is no skill behind the man with the gun, that it is a cheap and undignified chance-based form of combat and that anyone could use one. Gunslingers are normally the ones to shoot such people. With great skill and power, a gunslinger cares first for his weapons of choice then for themselves, but that care is not unrewarding for combined they truly are a force to be afraid off. Some strike forwards thirsting for close combat, while others strike terror into their enemy’s, unseen from afar. There is a gun for every gunslinger, and a bullet for every one of their victims. Just hope you are not one of them.
