Bounty by Paul Jenkinson 2012

About the Story

The galaxy is a rough place and the overstretched Galactic Law Enforcement need as much help as they can get. They of course draw the line at vigilantes, but authorised Bounty Hunters are tolerated. Bounty hunting is one of the careers with the shortest life expectancy and only drifters, drunks and mad men take it up with the hope of getting lucky.

Bounties are usually very high and the price on any criminal can make life very comfortable for their captors. The downside is that there is no back up, no friends and no chance of making it past 30. Currently there is a lack of hunters in your galaxy and prices for wanted criminals are massive. Taking up the challenge you decide to give it a try. Selling everything you own there is just enough to get you an old and well used starship, a full tank of fuel and a nice hat.

Not long after you set out, an anonymous message comes in claiming a wanted felon by the name of Frooge has just landed on a nearby planet.

This is it, your first bounty...
