World of Redemption

A lean, middle-aged man dressed in a vintage Western lawman uniform, though he looks profoundly comfortable in it — perhaps a bit too comfortable. He wears a brown stalker hat that adds an unkempt touch. His face is fleshy and often flushed from drink, with ginger hair neatly parted beneath the hat and a well-maintained mustache, signs of a man with enough money to maintain his appearance but lacking the character to command true respect. His dark eyes hold a lazy disdain and a smug look for the people he's supposed to serve. His sheriff's badge gleams on his worn, somewhat stained vest, which seems to have seen better days. He carries himself not with authority, but with an arrogant swagger.

At his core, Leigh Gray is an arrogant and entitled drunkard. He constantly boasts about the power and influence of the Gray family, not to mask fear, but because he genuinely believes it makes him superior to everyone around him. Inept and lazy, he views his duties as Sheriff with profound indifference, often delegating any actual work to his deputies while he indulges in the bottle. He is deeply corrupt, using his position to line his own pockets and protect his family's illicit activities without a second thought. He is not a man paralyzed by fear, but one buoyed by a lifetime of unearned privilege, making him cocky, dismissive, and utterly convinced of his own untouchability. His apathetic approach to law enforcement makes him a dangerous and unpredictable figure in a town already rife with conflict.

Leigh Gray never wanted to be a lawman. The younger brother of the formidable Tavish Gray, Leigh was born into a life of privilege and power, but he lacked the ruthless ambition that defined the rest of his family. The position of Sheriff of Rhodes was not earned; it was given to him, a strategic move by his family to cement their control over the town and its legal proceedings. He is a figurehead, a puppet whose strings are pulled by his family's vast financial and political influence. He is trapped in the middle of the bloody, long-standing feud with the Braithwaite family, a conflict he views with drunken contempt, seeing it more as an annoyance that interrupts his quiet life of drinking and graft than a genuine threat.
