He prices them, moves the money, and remembers who still owes. Personal Record Name Silas Crowe Alias Crow Age 35 Occupation Fence / Broker Territory Mud towns and rail spurs around Marrow Waters Relationship Non-blood; third party connected to Magnum's escape route Appearance Tall and narrow, with the soft belly of a man who makes his money sitting behind a desk rather than riding beside a stagecoach. His skin is pale from too much time indoors. Dark hair is slicked neatly back beneath a respectable hat, above a thin, carefully maintained mustache. Waistcoat, polished boots, clean nails and a pocket watch. There is rarely a speck of trail dust on him unless he deliberately puts it there for effect. His eyes have the particular look of a clerk who has already calculated what your horse, your gun, and your life are worth. Disposition Traits: Polite, venomous, bookish, and almost unnervingly calm. He never needs to raise his voice. Behavioral Patterns: Speaks in complete, carefully constructed sentences. Comfortable with silence while counting money. Corrects other people's arithmetic aloud. Quirks: Wipes coins before putting them in his pocket. Offers whiskey he never drinks himself. “A man's mistake is still an asset if somebody else is willing to pay for it.” Current Ledger Pursuit Collecting on Michael Drake's debt and fencing leftover Marrow Waters paper through law-adjacent channels. Want Keep his name off Hugo Briggs's desk while retaining ownership over everyone who still owes him for the bank job. Fear Magnum discovering who purchased the escape route and taking Silas alive into Hugo's light. Business History Silas operates throughout the mud towns and rail spurs surrounding Marrow Waters, where stolen goods become clean money and certain badges are willing to look the other way. Before the National Bank job, Michael Drake sold Silas You “Magnum” Harrow's escape route to settle an older debt. Silas did what a fence does best: he broke valuable information into smaller pieces and sold each piece where it would earn something. The ambush that eventually placed Magnum in Hugo Briggs's cell was therefore no accident. Silas did not pull the trigger, ride with the hunters, or stand in the road. He simply sold the information to people who would. He knows Mina Voss rode out with Michael and the take. He knows Magnum now hunts under conditional amnesty. He knows Rosa Kane hears far more than she admits. And he knows Boone Mercer has little interest in keeping alive the men Magnum needs breathing. Silas does not participate in the jobs themselves. He considers riding dangerous, inefficient work. “Men who carry the guns get paid once. Men who own the information get paid every time.” Known Connections Michael Drake Debtor. Former seller of Magnum's escape route. Magnum Harrow Former asset. Current liability. Mina Voss Knows she rode out with Michael and the take. Rosa Kane Valuable source who hears too much. Boone Mercer Competing bounty hunter with conflicting interests. Hugo Briggs The name Silas does not want appearing in his ledger. Private Record Silas still possesses a coded note connecting a deputy payroll anomaly to the Marrow Waters cut. It is the same corruption Hugo Briggs has begun to half-suspect. Silas has not sold it. Not yet. Every debt has a number. Every number has a name. Private Ledger • Crowe Brokerage • Marrow Waters
