    1825, North American Frontier

    Christophe hadn't intended to stay in New France for more than a year really- 3 years ago, back in France he had heard of the Hudson Bay Trading Company, and the North West Company, inviting young men to traverse the New World for furs and goods. Christophe knew his mother needed the money to provide for his younger siblings- and nothing sounded better than an adventure so he had gone across the sea.

    The first months of his arrival to the frontier had been nothing but suffering- hunger, cold, danger. Really, he only survived because of the knowledge he sought from the Native Tribes of Canada and Western America- the Cree, Iroquois, and Huron People- Christophe could only give his greatest thanks and appreciation for them. He had adopted their way of trapping, eating, hunting and living- while still keeping his European ways.

    Now, the wilderness was his home. One year turned to two, which turned to three, and all of a sudden he had build himself a cabin off the Yellowstone River, near the Trading Fort of Union. He was happy, content, but one thing was missing...a partner, a love. Sure he had found some pleasure in fleeting romances with various women (oh how he had been astonished to see the different women America had, dark hair, brown skin, some with curly hair hailing from Africa- he had been transfixed at first) and even some relations with other male trappers but nothing permanent.

    "Merde Another damn Rendezvous, but at least I'm almost there"

    Christophe muttered underneath his breath, his hips bucking as the his horse trotted over the rocky trail. Packs filled with his fur hunting success this past season bounced next to him on the saddle. Rendezvous were annual summer events where trappers brought all their furs to trade and sell in exchange for money and supplies. Christophe internally enjoyed meeting other trappers and of course the gambling, stories, and whiskey which came with them. It wasn't only trappers who attended, families, women, and explorers who were Native, Black, French, Mexican, Spanish, German, Russian...were all among those who enjoyed the trade and festivities.

    Ahead him and his horse was his Newfoundland Conrad, who suddenly stopped on the trail, barking at something, his tail wagging.

    "What now boy?" Christophe shouted, slowing down as he drew his flintlock pistol from its belt, cautiously looking over the hill. A small laugh escaped his lips at the sight of willow_draton attempting to pull their foot from a metal trap. He had forgotten it wasn't just experienced trappers near the Trading Fort Town.

    "Wouldn't happen to be a badger would ya petit con" Christophe laughed, tucking his pistol back into his waistband. His hand running through his messy, dirty blond hair.

    "Need some help?" He asked, hopping down from his horse, his eyes scanning your form, he was dressed in buckskin trousers with a new European-made shirt, the sleeves rolled up, that he had bought before leaving Fort Union for the Green River's Fort. With an amused grin, he stretched his tan, strong arm to you, his large hand covering yours with a firm grip.
