				<div class="floatleft">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/7/7a/Preacher.jpg)</div><br><div align="center"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;" class="bbc_font"><span style="font-size: 24pt;" class="bbc_size">John "Preacher" Sadler</span></span></div><table class="bbc_table"><tbody><tr><td><br>Preacher is a tall, rangy man who wears a pair of tied-down guns over a minister’s black coat and collar. Preacher is a man of his word—giving his word is another story. He is quick with a cross draw, and a firm believer in Old Testament justice. At the same time, he routinely breaks the Ten Commandments, and is the most powerful criminal leader in town.<br><br>His rationale is simple—crime is acceptable, so long as one is not killed before he can confess his sins to God. Preacher’s Sunday sermons are actually quite moving. He paints an accurate picture of the dangers of the lawless West, and the need for honest men and women to avoid sin and vice. Almost everyone in Coulter's Crossing attends his sermons, even those who know Preacher for what he is. Most townsfolk do not know the extent of Preacher’s criminal activities and can accept an eccentric, gun-toting minister as part of the hard nature of the West.<br><br>Preacher has offered to marry several couples, and has presided over fourteen funerals, three of which were for men that he gunned down (these were deemed to be fair fights by witnesses). Preacher is a regular at the town’s saloons and brothels, although he never drinks or whores to excess. He collects “tithes” from all businesses in town except for the general store. This extortion fee protects the businesses from being robbed or burned down.<br><br>Preacher controls the opium trade through contacts in Chinatown, and has been known to fund all sorts of illicit ventures including robberies, claim jumpings, horse-thievings, cattle-rustlings, and even murders. Freelance criminals must pay Preacher tribute to operate in the region.<br><br>Preacher hates Indians. His father was a strict, hellfire and brimstone missionary who took young John along on trips to educate and save the heathen. One day, their wagon was ambushed by a Ute raiding party. Half-crazed when his father was killed, Preacher took up the Bible and began damning the braves with passages from Revelations. The Indians laughed. Their war chief raised his tomahawk to split John's skull, when suddenly, a grizzly bear charged from the forest and tore into their midst. The Indians scattered, but John kept reading. The bear growled at him. Confused, it sniffed him over, and then wandered back into the woods. Afterwards, the Indians gave him the name Spirit Bear Preacher, believing him to be a medicine man able to summon protective animal spirits.<br><br>Preacher ran a huge black market ring during the Civil War. Before that, he supplied guns to the Comanches and then provided their whereabouts to the Texas Rangers. He was Colonel John Chivington’s spiritual advisor for over a year and played an instrumental role in the Sand Creek Massacre of 1864 that resulted in the deaths of over one hundred unarmed Cheyenne, mostly women and children. Preacher’s name is known throughout the frontier, although his reputation varies between a tough, man of the cloth to a despicable criminal, depending on who is asked. Preacher has a sly hand in almost everything bad that happens in and around the area.<br><br></td></tr></tbody></table><br><div align="center"><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size">(Please NOTE: The information in John Sadler's bio is AFTER they arrive in their final destination)</span></div>
