(I have been contacted by a concerned citizen who wishes to remain nameless. However, I agree with the point they made about the current stat of the RP. Seems that there is a level of impatients at the moment, with character trying to be 'cool'. Posts have thus far been a confusing mess, vague terms are abundant, and even though we are pretty much on the setup stage, people are overly trigger happy and eager to fight.

I don't want to point fingers, but for the sake of the RP, I think we should skip ahead to after this bar fight that I think is happening, have all/most of the characters in one place, and keep on going. The main story will probley kick off soon anyway, if not, or the confustion kicks off again, we might have to ditch the RP, or start kicking people, and no one wants that I think. Lt's try and make this work)

The fight amongst Steele and the group of teens were over, and they ran out of the bar.  Steele knew that he might of made a mistake, but every fight is not unusal.  But, having a cybernetic arm is another thing all in itself.  And that is his best description in his wanted poster, or annoucement.  He looked around at the bar residence, but a barfight was quite a common incident.  But it was more interesting if it was a newcomer.  Steele looked over the people in the bar, nobody looked like any bounty hunter he has ever seen, but that doesn't mean that there isn't a bounty hunter.  Its a good thing that his bounty is another galaxy away, but maybe his bounty has leaked out to other ones as well.  Most of his tactics to get him in this kind of bounty, is of large scale.  Steele decided it was a good choice to leave the bar, and go and get his fuel and other needed items before anybody or the law enforcements figure out about him.  Steele drink the rest of the water, and started to leave the bar.

Name- Hoogerbrugge (Hoog for short)

Species- Fish head with a human body

Age - 24 (though if you ask him, he's 3.14)

Occupation: Journalist for the Lylat Information and News center (LINC). He writes articles that are published digitally and also covers events live on video for the televised broadcast.

Appearance-

Hoog has two sets of clothing. He usually wears a white suit with a brown pinstripe undercoat and a brown, furry overcoat with random things clipped to it topped off with a spotty tie and a strange black tophat with what appears to be a lightbulb sticking out of the top of it. This is mostly worn when he's on an assignment or just lounging around town/stations.

However, during more formal events he wears a purple/burgundy suit with random undershirts/ties. He wears the same hat as the casual wear when wearing this.

Reference photos:

Hight- 6'1

Body- Average

Weaponry - Hoog carries around a thin, black cane that actually is a concealed blade. He has the cane with him at all times, using it even though he has no problems walking. The blade is tempered steel, an old fashioned sort of weapon. Just the way he likes it. He also carries an old colt revolver on him for longer range protection. Many find his attraction to vintage gear a strange thing, but his skill with these weapons should not be doubted.

Additional Equipment - He carries a Monocle on him at all times which is patched through to the LINC systems. When he puts it on he is able to send out a live signal to LINC, who will then air his broadcast after the initial story is approved. Hoog hates the paperwork and bureaucracy involved but the station sees him as their best and generally allows his broadcasts through without much question.

He also has a data pad for his digital writings and should that fail, a pad of paper and a pen. He also has a music player filled with music from all ages, genres, and artists. His love for music helps fuel his passion for his job, and he often states that life without music just wouldn't be worth living.

-----------------------------------------

It had been over a month since his last broadcast, and LINC was getting a little weary. It wasn't like Hoog to miss any assignments. They contacted him over and over again and the only answer he could give them was "There is no story yet,". LINC was tolerant but had to cut his paycheck due to his decreased input. This put a bit of a squeeze on him to find something to report on. After his last interview with the Star Fox crew, there just wasn't much going on out there he felt was worth reporting. People wanted to know the scoop, the big stuff and not just hoodlums bumming cigarettes off of people and stealing money from old people.

He knew his time would come, he knew that something was bound to happen that would get him back in the green with LINC and with his viewers. He wrote a few entertainment articles on the datanet but those just weren't enough to satisfy his audience or himself. He needed action. He needed something to drink. Hoog got up off of his thinking chair and headed out for his favorite bar, a little ditty just a few minutes of a walk from his apartment. Maybe some of the Captain's finest could help him mellow out while he considered where to look for a story. Little did he know, he may be walking right into one.

The last thing Steele needed was a journalist for the news in Lylat, to reveal who he really is.  Steele always hated the news anyways, before Hoog entered the door, Steele pushed out of the door and almost pushed Hoog over.  He didn't even say as much as sorry, but continued on his haste to get some fuel.  Maybe, about 15 seconds later, a patrol car pulled up to the bar, followed by the S.W.A.T.  Only one man got out of the car, and looked around and started to walk towards the bardoor.

Hoog was taken back by the large wolf who had just pushed through the door in a hurry. He caught himself from falling by leaning back on his cane and correcting himself. Hoog opened the door to the bar and saw a few young troublemakers tending to their wounds near the exit. He took notice of how quiet things were in the bar, which was unusual for the place. He got up to the bar and called for the bartender.

"Hey, got a little bit of the old spice?" Hoog inquired. The bartender nodded.

"Only the finest, as usual. From the barrel I assume?" The Gecko asked.

"Of course." Hoog replied. The bartender went under the bar for a few moments. As the drink was being prepared Hoog had a look around at who was there. Some usual faces, but one struck him as more important than the other. A lizard with purple spines protruding from his head, a face that looked familiar, but not one Hoog had seen at the bar before. He tried to recall where he had seen this lizard and why he was so important. The bartender whistled.

"One of the Captain's specialties, from the barrel!" the gecko announced as he set down the glass in front of Hoog.

"Tab it for me." Hoog said, then took his first sip. The bartender added the fee to a slip and tucked it back into the register.

From behind, the bar door opened wide and loud, and Hoog turned back to see what appeared to be a cop standing in the doorway. The bar fell silent. Hoog took a sip of his drink, awaiting what business this officer had here at the bar.

The cop looked wearily around at the silent crowd, and did not notice the wanted man.  He walked up towards the center of the bar audience, and reached into his shirt pocket.  Before he withdrew the paper, a few assistance officers came in and stood at the door of the bar, and folding their arms.  Once they entered, the commanding officer began his announcement.

"....I've come for the identification of a wanted man.....but he is no ordinary criminal"The commander paused, then continued"  I advise those that are concerned of their safety for look out for this fugutive"he said, and with that withdrew a poster and held it up high for everyone to see.  It had a picture of Steele on it.

"....A reward will be negotiable if any leads are given to us, for the time being, we will continue our search.....this criminal is highly dangerous, and advise that you contact us before confronting the individual"he said to the listening audience.  He went up to the bar table, and laid down the poster, and turned around.  The other officers began posting the posters on the walls.

"We would appreciate your cooperation with us to help track him down, before he escapes this planet"the commander continued, after a moment of silence.  In the back, a few people were already talking to the officers.

"Oh....one more thing"The commander spoke up"....we do not want this publicized yet"he said to the listening audience"we would like the news to get out after we catch him, thank you for your time"he smiled and turned around and the other officers followed him out.  A few people went out after him, to tell the officers what they know.

Alorn, who was almost to his ship after stealing all the money he could he looked down to what he grabbed from all of them together.

"......17 fcking dollars!, thats all they freakin had....god dangit....all right thats it, im going back!"

Alorn got back in time to see the cop talking to everyone, he peered through the window, he heard the cop talk about the wanted man, he couldnt se who it was, but he knew that if it was a bounty, he would defenitly go after it.

after the cop and most people left Alorn walked in to catch back up.

"Im back, and that bounty is mine!" Alorn shouted while walking

"....oh, crap!" Steele said, less excited

(with me being...well....ME...i dont think im the best at trying to make a plot so far what i got was, that Alorn aka my character is after the bounty who happens to be steele, but he didnt get a good look at the wanted poster so he doesnt know what itlooks like, and so what hes gonna do is team up with the others and try to find him, but they have to also lead him away from steele somhow) (Thats as much as I can do, not very good, but lets try to work with it, then, like other bounty hunters can like appear as the antagonist)
