Night time. He always liked going out at night. Especially when it came to hunting down his prey. Funny how things turned out before he finally settled on this particular profession. Marcus Huntsmen was once the greatest hunter for his village capturing animals and bringing them back to feed his fellow townsmen. However, after many years the hunter became bored of such prey, feeling that he couldn't quite attain the same kind of "thrill". It was only when one of the citizens in the town committed murder that Marcus discovered in new kind of prey, and a new king of thrill.
Hunting Man.
After his first successful manhunt. He then took to becoming a bounty hunter. Reveling in both a battle of wits as well as combat.
Though on this particular day. The tall, dark haired, sharp featured bounty hunter was nearly broke after traveling from his last hunt. His armor was damaged, and he was forced to use some of his more plain peasant clothing. Tunic and trouser. He needed to hunt again. To once again drown himself in the thrill and the pleasure of it all.
At least that's what he what he would say, if it had not been for the fact that his previous prey a disgraced knight injured his body gravely. He would have to go for a less straining bounty.
And thus, in the town of Tristain, the hunter immediately traveled to the nearest inn seeing, what his prey would be to help ease his pockets. Such a bounty appeared. The hunter smiled, reading through the wanted parchment, blocking the noise of hundreds of drunkards, and the dozens of whores indulging in their practice.
"Young slave girl, escaped from servitude from a noble family. Will be rewarded upon bringing her dead or alive. Will get money in return for her body. If alive, Will get the girl herself." Marcus read quietly mouthing each word. A slave and money to go with her if he takes her alive. Well that would certainly be interesting. He could use help in taking care of some of his "needs" when travels. Not to mention the prostitutes have a tendency to screw the man out of a good piece of silver and coin.
With one swift motion, the man removed the wanted parchment and gently slipped it into his tunic. Another day, and another new investigation. The man was already eager to find out more.
Hours Later....
After asking around the local populace. The bounty hunter finally found his lead in the form of a local smuggler known only as "The Jack" After a few shake downs, the hunter was finally led to a particular hiding place. A smile brushed across his face as he found a special hidden passage way leading to the underground networks of the large town. The Hunt was to begin.
