I love you. Seconded. And I've decided that he's replaced the Ten Commandments with his own personal One Commandment: Thou shalt kick ass.

Alright, new CS is here. Give me a bit to introduce him into the playground thread.
Name: Zachary Trimble
Age: 57
Appearance: Dishevelled and skinny, with greying hair that seems to be consistent only in its erraticness. No beard, but grey stubble seems omnipresent. He wears a black cassock; please don't ask him about the things on it that look like bloodstains.
Occupation: Priest
Skills: Hurting people, breaking things, reading and quoting the Bible, shooting, being very loud.
Worldly possessions: His cassock, a Bible, his trusty double-barrelled shotgun 'Mercy' (typically loaded with phosphor shells), a veritable cartload of crazy, his unflappable mule, named Mark.
Biography: Growing up a quiet, unassuming and ultimately very pious young man, Zachary was the middle child of a dozen boisterous siblings who went on to study theology and become ordained as a man of the cloth. While on his way to his first parish, the stagecoach he was on was held up. The bandit in question, a mean killer by the name of Six-Round Jessie, expected the worst to happen on the robbery was for some idiot of a passenger to try and be a hero.
What he had not expected was for Zachary to beat him to death with a Bible.
Something about that incident made something snap in Zachary's head. While he was a diligent, patient, learned and wise priest with the people of the town he ministered, he was a force of nature against anyone who he perceived to threaten his flock. After one absolutely terrifying incident too many, the townspeople scraped together their courage and wrote a letter to Zarachy's superiors that essentially asked 'Can we have a less scary priest, please?' The good people of the town got a far less frightening priest, but Zachary was a loose end, and after some debate it was decided that he would best serve the Christians of the frontier as a travelling preacher.
Most priests view themselves as shepherds of their flocks with the duty of guiding their congregation into the light of the Lord. Zachary, too, views most priests as having that role, but he knows that the herd is beset by wolves, and someone has to stand guard. Lord have mercy upon the wolves out there, for Zachary shall not.
