for the thieve's guild, I want one of our possible jobs to be assisting with bounty hunting, and that would most likely require hunting down certain primes. Now, I forget what a lot of the technicalities were with bounty hunting, but it required a search thread and tracking their last location and whatnot. Is it possible for someone to track down the wanted prime and then hand the information over to someone who can finish the job? And I believe it would be possible for the bounty to be split because of the split effort?

[spoiler]The video starts in a dark room. Almost as if it was lit by candlelight, but there is no telltale flickering of shadows. Centerframe sits a red-skinned man. His hair is slicked back and black sunglasses cover his eyes, he is grinning with a mouthful of sharp fangs. An unzipped leather bomber jacket dyed a deep shade of red sits wrapped around his shoulders. Red letters on a black shirt peeked out from beneath the jacket, an observant viewer could see they spelled out “devil”. After pausing a moment to allow the camera time to adjust to the poor lighting the man spoke, “greetings assholes of the Omniverse! My name is Kuzuru and I’m the leader of The Ashen Blades” He paused, took a moment to remove his sunglasses to reveal ruby red eyes, and continued, “I’ve gotta say I’m disappointed in most of you, there is so much wasted potential in this world that it makes me sick. You seek camaraderie and companionship, so many of you are huddled in the dark afraid to raise so much as a dagger against your fellows.” His grin was gone, but his fervor was not, “though don’t you worry your pretty little heads, soon we’ll be coming to lop them off so you won’t have to worry about anything asides from picking out a nice coffin. I think we’ll start with those of you unfortunate enough to have a price on your head, after all one can’t work for free. Also if any of you goody two-shoes hero types are out there and want to stop me you better get yourself a bounty, or well quite frankly,” he chuckled, “you just aren’t worth my time.” He slid the sunglasses back over his eyes and leaned in closer to the camera. His grin was back and he said, “I’ll leave my e-mail in the description, hit me up if you need a job or want to hire my merry band of mercenaries, or hell even send me hate mail I always need a good laugh. I hope you all have an absolutely pleasant day.” The video faded to black and in its place a sigil appeared for several seconds as the video came to a close.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]"I wasn't supposed to die at the hands of a child-killing PSYCHOPATH!"
Bullets like rain. A man screaming, more fire than flesh.
"You're... a savage!"
An army of insane men, raising grenades like trophies, determined to make me feel the pain that they did.
"You're just a bandit..."
A living, breathing human, rendered into a puddle of flesh by storms from the moon. I watched as meteors dissembled my friends.
"AND I AM THE GODDAMN HERO!"
Purple magic, flames. Peeling faces.
A smoking hole embedded in a friend's chest.
My home, burning.
His bloody mask, floating in the air. It smiled at me, grafts still clutched onto bits of skin.
"This is not the world you know..."[/spoiler]
Gaige's eyes snapped open as she rolled over, drawing her SMG. She was gasping for air, wildly pointing the gun around. The clamor of war was still ringing in her ears. Her eyes madly flickering in their sockets, Gaige glared through the scope.
Nobody.
She relaxed and slung the SMG around her back. There was nobody around.
"Axton?"
The two had been on a mission to recruit Lady Hammerlock after the Eridian showed up. They had hitched on a train, speeding towards the ferry between Pandora and Elpis.
"Did we crash again?"
She activated her ECHO device, which took some time. It had trouble connecting to the local network.
Once it connected, something strange happened. The local map was showing something very different: an organized network of biomes, linked together to her current location. The planet designation at the bottom read: "unknown".
"Whooooooa," Gaige muttered, "Where am I?"

Heavy breathing filled the musky air as she rushed passed the low moans of them. Rough boots slammed against the hard ground, unrelenting and unforgiving to any life the fell upon it. Rotting arms reached out to try to grab at the woman that ran passed them, a woman who dodged and ducked around them, swinging a bloody, rusted axe wildly around her, slapping at anything that got too close.
"Only a few hundred my ass..."
Thick, dark, globby blood spewed forth from the neck of the nearest flesh-chomper as the rusted blade sliced through the dead grey skin, causing its head to flop to the side and the body to tumble as it lost its balance, leaving it to slam into the ground, watching through a mess of throbbing muscles and tendons that watched its prey run off into the thick fog.
With her eyes narrowed, the dark haired woman flew through the mist, her senses trained and focused on making sure that--
A lazy ass crawler suddenly throws its hand out in a sporadic attempt to take her down, grabbing and scratching her leg, getting caught on her boot.
"Fucking.... little shitstain...." she shouted as she tripped and stumbled, smacking the back of the hatchet into the undead's skull, knocking it off of her boots. However, the distraction was enough for the runners behind her to catch up, one of them jumping onto her back, forcing her to spin and shake to try to take it off, fighting off the undead fuckers that were bloodthirsty enough to take her on. She held them off, using the hatchet as a blocking mechanism while she reached to her side for her handgun, the asshole on her back struggling to bite her neck until she reached up, popping a bullet into his skull, brains flying out into the air,the undead's limp body falling off of her as she put a bullet into each of the three attacked she was holding off with her hatchet. She gave a low grunt as she continued on, the zombies becoming more scarce as she neared a clearer part of the area, finding a road.
"I'm going to shove my foot so far up that bastard's asshole he is gonna taste the dead flesh on the bottom of my boots..."
Gabriella fumbled with her gun angrily, switching out the clip and tossing the empty one in he backpack. She then slung her hatchet over her shoulder as she walked along the road back to Darkshire, mumbling obscenities and curses as she trudged along.
***
"What the fuck was that shit out there."
A hand slammed a struggling man to a nearby wall, pinning him up by the neck.
"I-I didn't know there were that many!"
"Oh, but you seemed so damn fucking sure when you offered me such little fucking supplies for it. You think a single case would take care of the fucking hundreds of zed out there? I would need what you are ppaying me to survive out there for FIVE MINUTES. Just because the fucking disease doesn't affect me and I am a pretty little fuck you think you cant fuck me over like I am some dumb bitch don't you?"
"NO! I didn't... I just thought that... you... you seemed pretty tough so I figured it was an easy job for you?" the weasel of a man tried to come up with an excuse.
"Alright, trying to play it off now? I'll tell you what. Maybe. Maybe I can forgive you, but I am just gonna have to charge you some interest wouldn't I?
"Of course... I .. I should have a few more boxes of ammo and supplies in the back, maybe I can--"
"Of, not interest like that..." She said, grabbing his sweaty and wrinkled tie as she drug him across the room, bringing him outside.
"Where.... where are we going?"
"Oh, you'll see..." she said with a sexual undertone, trying to calm him down a bit.
She drug him to a dark alley, where she slammed him against the wall, giving him a kiss and softening him up a bit. Her hands trailed down to indecent places, as she whispered in his ear. "This is all mine now..."
She trailed down, squatting in the alleyway, with those passing by trying to avert their gaze.
Until a bloodcurdling scream is heard, with Gabriella dragging the screaming man out of the alleyway, blood dripping from her mouth as she licks her lips. The man sobs and cried out as she tossed him in the street, those who watched [paused only for a moment before minding their own business. It was often that such things were given a blind eye to.
"YOU FUCKING BITCH!!"
"Oh, did you not like your surprise? Ungrateful little shit."
"FUCK Y--"
His words were cut out by a pained yelp as she smacked her boot across his face, giving a devious smile. Another kick followed to his stomach, , then his arm, then repeatedly over and over again while she savored the taste of her meal with a smile, all while enjoying her new little plaything, revenge for the shit she had to go through earlier today because of him.

Claptrap's breath was far too heavy for something without lungs as he climbed out of the technical which had ended up wrapping itself around a particularly sturdy palm tree. Well, more sturdy than the previous dozen that had failed to stop the rampaging bandit car. Claptrap paused to look around and saw a sight that he had only dreamed about seeing without being harassed by Pandora's myriad of robo-phobic lifeforms. The sky and the water were similar shades of pure blue and the sand was a pristine golden colour. Claptrap wished he could go to the beach, but seawater made his joints rust, sand irritated his circuits and the crisp sea air brought on inexplicable coughing fits. But he couldn't go to the beach anyway, he had some chumps to beat up.
Claptrap took quite a while to find the sign-up location. Not many people took kindly to Claptrap asking where he could find the questionably legal and/or ethical fighting competition. When he did find it, however, the staff inside weren't much more helpful.
Claptrap wheeled his way over to the front desk before realising he was too short to look over it. After he had grabbed a chair and propped it against the desk, Claptrap cleared his throat. "Hello! I am a CL4P-TP steward bot, but you can call me Claptrap! I would like to enrol in your televised demonstration of human cruelty."
The woman behind the desk eyed him with an expression many would read as contempt, or even hate. You didn't need to be a psychic to tell what she was thinking, "He's got a pretty big mouth for something so small." Claptrap, however, was not exactly functional in the social cues department. He was made to open doors, not enter fighting competitions without making enemies with the people working the desk. Claptrap read her expression as one of confusion, but was cut off before he could elaborate.
"Aren't you a little... small, to compete in the OCL?" She said. To her credit, one must be very professional to deal with someone like Claptrap and keep their cool. As if he was intentionally trying to push her, Claptrap scoffed loudly.
"Excuse me, Ma'am, but I am 100% Hyperion designed and produced. I am equipped with the latest Vault Hunting combat software, revolutionary hardware such as a stair-climbing wheel, a chassis made of scrap metal and no less than 5% recycled human flesh and, of course, a shining personality that would put Handsome Jack to shame."
If looks could kill, the woman at the front desk would have a whole nuclear arsenal at her disposal. Before she sent Claptrap out the door in multiple pieces, she had an idea. There was no way he would win the league, so if she just let him sign up the fighters would do the dirty work for her! She put on her best customer service smile and handed Claptrap a small pile of paper work. "Please fill these out and return them to me when you're done. Welcome to the fighting league."
Claptrap took the paperwork and sat in, or to be precise, stood on a chair in the waiting area as filled it out, feeling rather proud of himself for swaying the woman like that with his unnatural charms. He would have to keep a hold on it next time, he could cause someone to do something really crazy with that kind of power.

Symbolism.
It has existed ever since the ancient times, developed and guided by the different religions and beliefs across the passage of time. Myths and legends have claimed beings and objects alike as their own. And often in the centre of it all, were animals. The symbolism of animals reaches across the void of time, holding within its grasp tales of feline, canine and vulpine alike.
Foxes were believed to be creatures of cunning, of magical prowess and trickery. Even then, they were seldom kept evil. Outfoxing the slow, but monstrously strong bear as well as the evil and voracious bear. The vulpine kin symbolises the victory of the intelligent over the strong and malicious..
And this, this is a tale of one such fox.
A full moon cast its pale hue upon the deep green needles of the spruce trees. If one was familiar with forests or perhaps had some sense for the supernatural, they could likely feel the shivers running down their spine. It was almost as if there was something, someone, watching them from somewhere deep within the woods. A pair of eyes, only for them to disappear. Had they even been there in the first place? It didn’t help that the spruces seemed to have taken a liking to each other, grown inseparably close to one another, weaving a dense, difficult to traverse forest, where one had to press forth with force to advance, at times.
It was in such a forest where the vulpines lived, where the moon grinned down upon them with a wide, predatory expression, giggling at times. A forest where the owls howled and the wolves meowed. It was a strange place, indeed.
Legends said, that the forest was full of such creatures of wonder, if you asked a villager, seeing one meant ten years of good luck. If you however, opted to ask their neighbour, they claimed they were harbingers of bad news.
But of course, a hunter cared not for such superstition. They had mouths to feed, families to look after. They cared not about what magical prowess a beast had, if their furs were warm and meat edible. His boots treaded into the ground with an expertise that only years of training could achieve, each movement calculated and silent. There would be no sound, no scent in the wind to warn his prey.
An owl howled in the night a cacophony of many as its kinship joined. The hunter sat in wait, arrow resting upon the string of his bow. His instincts told him, that tonight would be just like every other; his prey would be here. It had been so for each and every night for days now.
Of course, one could ask why, if he had stalked for days in the same spot, had he not gone for the kill already? Was he simply an incompetent fool? A sentimental creature of his own habits? Perhaps it was the desire to savor the kill, to pay forward his respect to the majestic creatures of this forest. He may not have cared for their powers or their tales, but respected them as prey.
Raising his gaze, the hunter raised his bow, pulling the string taut as he aimed. The prey had arrived, and this game was over. An arrow was let loose, howling as it soared across the air toward the flesh it was destined to dig into. Or… It would have. If the target would’ve been there. As the arrow clinked into a rock, the hunter’s expression displayed nothing but confusion, as he slowly crept forth from his hideout and toward the arrow. There were clearly tracks in the ground.
If only he hadn’t been so within his own bafflement that he would’ve noticed the creature behind him. It was only when a cheery giggle reached his ears that he scrambled around, practically panicking as he as he found himself sitting flat on his ass.
“Silly thing, did you think I’d be shot that easily~?” the fox inquired with a teasy, feminine tone in its voice.
Insanity. This was insanity. The fo- He didn’t stop to finish the trail of thoughts before he was already scrambling at full speed through the forest.. He’d never come back, no. He’d become a blacksmith, he’d become a baker. He’d become something, anything else.
It was an old folktale told by the village’s folktale, as told to him by his father and before that, his father. How true could it be?
