Background[]

Member Bio[]

A Gunslinger originating from Sweden, no man alive knows where he got his alias from. Said to be the fastest person in the world at reloading a revolver, Rusty travelled across Earth and Mars as a vigilante, defeating Outlaws and corruption where nobody else could. It is believed that Rusty also possesses a unique gift which allows him to hear the dead, but no person to date has witnessed this ability. Medical files also indicate that Rusty has a augmented heart which allows feats of insane concentration, at the risk of it overheating and exploding.

Rusty's revolver skills are unmatched in the AMC squad, and he is equally proficient in weapons such as swords and throwing stars. His journeys across the planet have seen him train in many different forms of combat; so many in fact that it feels as if he has lived for far longer than his age would permit.

Rusty's exact nationality and place of birth are unknown; however it is almost certainly somewhere in Europe. Traces of his bloodline run back to England and Sweden; it seems as if his father was an Englishman of some sort. Rusty has the supernatural ability is to contact the dead. His powers slowly developed over his life; originally it was barely audible whispering but eventually he could see, hear, touch and even converse with Spirits. It is unknown what sort of belief system these Spirits belong to, as every single one has refused to comment when asked about the afterlife. The Spirits can come from long gone corpses or the newly deceased, and often have at least some information or help to give.



In episode 1, during his mission in Millhaven, it's possible to find evidence that implies Rusty was in a relationship with Jekyll at some point. Judging by his efficacy in dispatching of the good doctor and his alter ego, this clearly does not impact his ability to function as an AMC agent. That said, he did destroy the incriminating page. It is unclear if this was out of an unwillingness to sow doubt, arrogance or even regret.

Originally Rusty could engage Jekyll in a proper, honorable duel to earn his Remington 1858. This was removed, but the fact this was implemented at all hints that Rusty may be swayed into disadvantageous positions for the sake of 'honor'.

Combat Analysis[]

Rusty's shining properties are his heightened endurance, great armor and paranormal experience. His battle level is a product of his unyielding accuracy and surprising lethality despite using quite antiquated weapons.

A standout feature is his ability to equip silver weapons, items and bayonets, granting him a surprising edge against the supernatural, should the need arise. Don't forget the Golden Lighter and Book of Nails, further augmenting his arsenal with high Supernatural damage potential. Outside of armor.

A downside is that, despite everything, Rusty's arsenal is a little quirky. His Dart Gun is extremely strange, and the Brain Trap can be used in combat without requiring setting first. Moreover, mastering his dynamite sticks and semi-auto weapons can be tricky for a novice combatant.

Another downside is that maintenance and replacement parts for his equipment can be hard to come by. Befitting his antiquated method of doing things, Rusty has shown a willingness to lower his guard and chance of success to maintain a façade of 'honor'.

Finally, while his loadout is perfectly serviceable, there's a notable lack of anti-armor weapons. Body armor, sure, he can handle that fine with his basics, but there's nothing that can punch through proper armor. This leaves him vulnerable to power armor, robotic and mech enemies.
