William Green

"There's about two decades between us which means I got two more decades of wisdom than you do so take it from me be careful with the Calderon Family they got eyes and ears everywhere." - William to Emmet

William Green was a cattle baron who made contacts throughout the state of Weirdale with the likes of Emmet Duke, Martin Duke and the Calderon Family, he then later helped Emmet Duke in his later years providing him and his new crew with means of earning money.

A Humble Trader
Not much is known about the younger William Green only that he was a trader that travelled across the states for quite some time making deals and deliveries for much larger companies which is probably why he became such a people person in his later years, William eventually became quite a profitable trader meeting all sorts of people across the country and mainly being a delivery for both legal and illegal things and was said to always get the job done.

Civil war
Within the year of 1861 the young adult William Green would have to put his trading to one side seeing that the country was infighting between the north and south, William now being at the age of 21 would be enlisted into the northern army where he fought for 4 years until the end of the civil war where he hoped to return to his trading business, after returning from war and reclaiming his trading business he found that many towns and other people had found actual companies to provide wagons and means of transportation for them which put William out of business to which he then decided to join one of these companies until he got back on his feet.

Jericho
After 5 years of working in transportation companies, William would end up in a town called Jericho which was a much smaller farming town to what it was in its later years, William saw another chance to make money and settle down now at the age of 30. William Green used his money that he had earned wisely investing in many farms which boosted produce and made William a very well known and generous man throughout Jericho which he then was seen by the people aside from the local deputies as a leader of the town being their main investor.

Old habits
After 10 long years helping the people of Jericho, William had finally thought that he would now get the chance at the age of 40 to settle down properly living his life in peace until he was visited by two new people in Jericho by the name of Martin Duke and Emmet Duke who were looking to earn money, William struggled to find them legal work as he tried to stay away from illegal work and he tried to stay straight but with little to no legal work and a lot of illegal work William was forced to go into his old ways and make contact with some old people he met through trading that needed work done to which he forwarded the work to the pair. After completing a lot of work for William both Martin and William grew to like each other seeing each other as honest people and could do what needed to be done if the time came, eventually Martin would forward an opportunity to William about robbing the local bank in town which William was initially very much against however Martin reassured him that he didn't want to harm anyone and was hoping to rob the bank when there is barely anyone inside the building. William would question Martin on how he would do this to which Martin brought forward Abraham Keller, a kid that had provided them details about the bank, William knew of Abraham being a small time farm hand on a nearby ranch and was quite shocked about it but allowed them to go forward with the plan as long as they didn't harm people. After the bank was robbed William was pressed by the people for answers to which William cleverly forwarded the blame to the deputies.

Botched Bank
After 8 years of working with William, Martin forwarded an idea to William as he wanted his advice on a bank job in the city of Bandera, William warned Martin that a city bank is more protected and unlike any of the local trains or banks that the trio were used to, Martin understood the risks and this is why he came to William asking him if he had a fourth man for the job. William did indeed have a man called Peter Conley who was working as a solo mercenary for William at the time and was asking about joining a group in what seemed to good to be true William handed Peter over to Martin for them to get on with the bank job. After hearing about the botched bank robbery and hearing through his contacts in the city that Abraham was captured, Martin was dead and Emmet was nowhere to be found William began to panic as he was later told that Peter was an undercover federal agent and William feared that he may be next to be arrested and then hung, Peter would find William telling him not to worry and that he wasn't ever hunting him only Martin and his group and that he wanted William to continue helping Jericho.

1898
With a now older William he became more of a town elder that was known for his glory days a great town leader, William however eventually ran into Emmet Duke in the year of 1898 where he was surprised as he thought he would of never seen Emmet ever again, Emmet had returned to the state of Weirdale in hopes of making money for himself and his crew, William was more than happy to accommodate for the man he had happily worked alongside with back in the day. In the later months William would run into a different gang that brought him to Abraham Keller who sought to use William as a hostage to lure out Emmet to which the plan worked however Emmet had brought his own hostage in the form of Willis Olson who was a lieutenant in Keller's Gang at the time. The exchange went well with both men returning to the other group and then a firefight would ensue between Emmet and his men against Keller's Gang with Abraham making his swift getaway, after the firefight William informed Emmet that Abraham has powerful allies in the form of the Calderon Family who were a crime family running the state from the city of Bandera. This would really be the last time we see William as he had gone away from the state of Weirdale to go and retire someplace else.
