Overview
Bounty Hunters are mercenaries for hire who track down and capture or kill anyone with a price on their head, although they are commonly known for doing nearly anything for the right price - including the protection of clients or even the betrayal of said clients if they are unscrupulous enough. The best bounty hunters tend to be very well armed and have very effective weapons, making them even more dangerous.
Bounty hunters usually work alone, but occasionally form partnerships. Partnering with a bounty hunter could be very dangerous business though, as they typically valued their personal gain—and survival—above that of their companions.
