not a problem! i mostly like the idea of pulling from the rdr-verse so we have easy access to premade locations and some established lore to pilfer from. npcs and side characters are a great way of moving the plot along; i love it. how about we say they ran with a small gang whose leader got busted while they were fleeing the scene of the crime? they could start with a jailbreak and end up hopping a train as part of their escape. shenanigans along the way are welcome and encouraged. it could establish they're not unstoppable badasses. characters who fuck up are more fun imo than ones who annihilate any conflict to come their way.
