Name: Jacopo Polenta

Alias: The Pistolero

Physical Description: Tall and dark with a distinctive aquiline nose and high, arching forehead, Polenta counts Roman Caesars and Italian poets among his ancestry. He is a man of simple tastes, preferring grays and blacks when in civilian garb, though he often conceals his kit beneath the black and white robes of a Dominican friar.

Background: Like most of the adherents of the Order of Saint Baptiste, Jacopo Plenta is a foundling. The discarded child of a bankrupt aristocrat and a woman of ill-repute, Jacopo was raised up within the Church, and taught from an early age to fight against the various threats posed to it, both ancient and modern. Jacopo's zeal and skill with the pistol made him an ideal recruit for the Order of Saint Baptiste -- an ancient order that had split off from the Vatican centuries ago to wage war against the spawn of the Enemy: meta-humans.

Most recently, Polenta has been sent to eliminate Matthias Konig, the last member of a particularly pernicious legacy of meta-humans that has plagued Eastern Europe for years. After the Order exterminated most of the family, Konig fled to the New World, hoping to find anonymity and a fresh start in the cultural melting pot that was the California Gold Rush. Polenta has been sent to ensure that Konig's legacy of evil stops with him.

Skills, Abilities:

Firearms - Excellent (4)
Unarmed Combat - Proficient (3)
Blades - Skilled (2)
Gadgets - Skilled (2)
Improvisation - Decent (1)
Riding - Decent (1)

Important Themes and Notes: The meta-gene has yet to be discovered by this point, so the term "meta-human" is not in use. The Order's official term is probably the, "Seed of Cain," or something similarly erudite. Different cultures and localities probably have their own way of describing this very rare phenomena, probably in the terms that they explain rare phenomena in real life.

Continuity: Not yet!

Do you wish for this character to become part of the CH continuity? Anything is possible!
