What is a Bounty Hunter

[teschy]

Basically, my bounty hunter character belongs to the 3rd category, using a BHG ID. He's a member of an -authorized- private company, registered to the 'Bounty Hunters Guild' Faction. So yeah, lawful.

You can also refer to a Freelancer or Mercenary as a bounty hunter, only that these work for themselves, although there are some mercenary companies out there. However, these are not registered to the 'Bounty Hunters Guild', therefore they are less trusted, as they can perform both lawful and unlawful contracts, and are usually well known for their less orthodox practices (not that the BHG is full of saints, but still - an 'authorized bounty hunter' might do a lot for some cash, but a mercenary will do -anything- for it).

As you can see, the term 'Bounty Hunter' shouldn't be associated with the BHG Faction, as they can represent some very different entities.
