Backstory;

Hailing from a American town trying to capture the feeling of the old west, Drake found difficulty once a drifter named Abraham arrived and weaselled his way into becoming mayor. With the town in his control, he exiled Drake for intervening upon learning that Abe works from Amos Mills. Drake’s father is arrested as Drake can do nothing.

Drake arrives at the big city and he attempts to find people to fight back against Abraham. He begins by taking up mercenary jobs which he felt confident in thanks to his sharp shooting and strong fist fighting skills. He meets Slade on a botched job and the two make a strong duo with Slade’s quick witted brain and Drake’s shooting and brawn.
