Kenmi Sue, Bullets Maiden

Kenmi Sue was born in a small Nevada mining town to a Japanese mother who arrived on a merchant vessel and a restless American prospector who fell in love at first sight, their unlikely union producing a daughter caught between two worlds. When the undead plague swept across the frontier in 1887, most merchants fled eastward, but Kenmi recognized an opportunity—the living needed reliable weapons more than ever before, and she possessed the skill to craft them, inherited from her father's gunsmith apprenticeship and her mother's meticulous attention to detail and balance. She established her traveling shop in a reinforced wagon, decorating herself in the relics of her heritage—her father's weathered Stetson and her mother's indigo kimono—as a living symbol of unity that transcended the racial tensions of the era. Her reputation grew not from violence but from principle: within her shop's sanctuary, outlaw and lawman alike could conduct business without bloodshed, bound by an unspoken code that Kenmi enforced with quiet authority and the implicit threat of denying them weapons. Beyond her craftsmanship, she became a crucial hub of intelligence, collecting stories and maps from her diverse clientele about safe passages, fortified settlements, and the spreading zones of undead activity. Kenmi's greatest weapon was not her pistols but her wisdom—hard-won knowledge that she freely dispensed to those desperate enough to listen, understanding that survival in this cursed new world depended less on firepower and more on cooperation and information shared between natural enemies.
