conversations.value: Stone Creek was a quiet little town, til the night Ol' Jake Wilcox stumbled into the saloon spilling his guts and near three pounds of gold on the floor. Screaming he'd give the the rest of it to whichever doc would put his insides back in and keep him long for this world. Sadly there no miracles to be had around here, and Ol'Jake Wilcox aint got much time left.
  
  Before he goes though, the whole town'd probably like to know a few things. Like wheres the rest of this gold he's talking about? Who split him wide for the whole world to see? And how long before Col. McClintock and his boys hear about this and want to lay claim for themselves?
  
  One things for sure though, the sight of all that crimson and gold on the bar room floors got a fever brewing in the small town. It's a thirst for gold and a willingness to see blood spilled to get it, locals and folks passing through alike. 
  
  How many people are gonna be left standing at the end of this, and how many bullets, hatchets, and broken bones is it gonna take to get em there?
  
  Diamondback is a an over the top western standoff style game in a similar vein to movies like Sukiyaki Western Django, Quigley Down Under, The Good The Bad and The Ugly, Django Unchained, and Once Upon a Time in the West. 
  
  Not all characters have to be gunslingers, they all just have to be willing to do whatever it takes to get their hands on the gold, whatever their reasons.
  
  I've provided some example cards, but feel free to create your own thematically appropriate cards as well.

conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: A quiet little town out in the west meant nothing more than to fill the space between towns that actually matter. Sure it's still got it's ranchers, prospectors, and people trying to make a living, but in the grand scheme of things, it could have just as easily been a well and a post station.
conversations.prefix: Stone Creek:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: The old timer came crawling into the saloon leaving a trail of blood and gold in his wake. Not one to stir things up on purpose, he's sure gone and kicked the hornets nest now.

conversations.prefix: Fisticuffs:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: The west is a dangerous place, and you're one of the people that made it that way. Whether or not you fight for justice, you still add to the body count, one lead slug at a time. 
conversations.prefix: Gunslinger:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: You do your best to help people, but in a place like this, some people are far beyond help. Depending how long you've been doing this, the constant struggle against old man grim may have worn you down to the stump.

conversations.prefix: Seth Hannis:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: The weasel of the two brothers. Cole thinks he's a slick customer and touts the attitude to back it up. While both brothers are prone to violence, Cole's outbursts tend to be wild and unexpected.

conversations.value: Occasionally referred to as 'the devil's horse', El Fuego is an ornery firebrand of a wild chestnut.  This mean bastard has killed at least two people, and injured just as many as have tried to tame him. Yet people continue to try because he's considered to be the fastest stallion in the state. Whether this is fact, or lore based speculation, is yet to be seen.

conversations.from: human
conversations.value: The town's got a bunch of new faces. Most appear to be the rough type, probably best to have a look and see what new kind of trouble is rolling into town.
