DESULTORY FACTS

 

  • Theo started his trouble-making once his brother (James) was born. Jealousy turned to adventure for him, causing him to paint the walls, steal horses, and pull pranks on the locals.
  • His father once thought that he needed to see a doctor for mental issues, but it turned out that Theo was perfectly fine. He was just that out of line. 
  • Theo left the family at the age of 22, heading to Oregon. He later began to rob banks, gamble, and gunfight. 
  • He was shot at the age of 26 while trying to rob his second bank. The bullet bit him in the right calf of his leg. He did not seek medical attention, only the help of a comrade to rip the bullet out and treat the wound with minimum experience. 
  • He broke two ribs while robbing his first bank. Instead of running out of the door, he ran up the stairs and ended up on the roof, forced to jump down and attempt to land on his horse like a hero. Instead, he landed sideways on his ribs, but was able to get away. 
  • Gambling may have earned him money, but cheating made him lose most of it. It's a habit he can't help but give in to sometimes, leading to a fist fight... He's won 60% of those fights.
  • Theo is a sharpshooter with his gun. He isn't as accurate with a rifle seeing as it's been years since he's fired one.
