Katy Elder

Age: 25

Father was an cattle rancher in the Cimmaron and ex-army Colonel. Her mother an Apache indian, 'White Deer', that died at child birth. Her grandfather is an Apache Chief 'Red Moon' who had a hand in her raising. Never having a boy and raising his daughter at various military forts she was trained as a soldier and is an expert shot. Her grandfather taught her the ways of hunting and survival and tracking. Her father when he retired sent her back East for a year to learn to be a gentile lady. She came home due to his death to find she had nothing left.

She's lived in Whiskey Flat for about 10 years now. Slowly in her own time she searches for the answer to her father's mysterious death and the loss of her ranch not to mention a brutal attack at the time of her father's death.

The butt of many jokes by drunks and smart mouths, and frowned on by 'proper' women regarding her attire and many male offers to show her she is a woman. They soon regret their error. She has never had a boyfriend as she is too busy with work. One day a man will capture her heart and tame her spirit a bit. But he'll be one heckuva man!
