CANONS || APPLICATION || INFORMATION
In the Black Hills of the Dakota Territory approaching the turn of the century, Gold was found, and with it, a town, Deadwood, was born.
Al Swearengen, a man whose voice and word you trust - yet, he has no trouble stabbing you in the back and feeding you to the wolves - opened The Gem, a saloon which put him at the center of the town's power. You see, the Black Hills were Indian land, and there's no law other than Swearnegen's good or bad graces. Whether it's a claim to purchase, laudanum, gambling, prostitution, or store site, Swearengen has his hands in it even if it seems otherwise. A powerful friend and a deadly enemy, tread carefully.
Soon, all sorts of cowboys, entrepreneurs, and gunslingers came riding into town to test their fate and fortunes. The likes of Wild Bill Hickok, Calamity Jane, 'Doc' Holliday, and the Earps were soon whispered or slurred drunkenly about the town.
Thus, the struggle between the just and the unjust was also born in this lawless settlement, where every man, and woman, has their price. Only one law exists: survive, by any means necessary.
It's a hell of a place.
