What is a Bounty Hunter

[Athenian]

I didn't choose anything, because none of those are what a BH is.

Bounty Hunters are exactly what the name portrays. They hunt bounties. Either bounties on lawful folks or unlawful, there is no line for them, it's greyed out.

P.S. I play as a Bounty Hunter, and if I see a bounty up on someone who's got a lawful background, I don't care.
Money is money.

The ID says you cannot perform unlawful actions. It also says you are allied with the Police factions. Now I know there is a rule about freelancers not being allowed to take unlawful bounties, but surely the BHG id precludes unlawful killing.

Bounties are, gernerally speaking, issued by lawful organisations. Killing for unlawfuls makes you a contract killer, an assassin, a hired goon, a hired thug, a mercenary, an unscruplous hired gun, etc. Even the two examples of BH that come to mind immediately -
Bobafett from Star Wars and Duane Chapman "Dog" work on the side of the law, even though the law might be a nasty Sith with asthma.
