==='''Mc Hood's Roadhouse'''===

[[File:Mchoods.jpg]]

Shadow seems to adore places where heat, cold, gunpowder and bloodshed mix .
In many worlds you will find a place where the urge to expand and the development of gunpowder and steam locomotion meet.  This is one such place.  Mc Hood is a retired gunfighter, not that he shows himself often.  He has issues.
But his family runs Mc Hood's Roadhouse.
Here cattle hands and stevedors, gunfighters, gamblers, ranchers, sheepherders, farmers and travelers of every kind might gather. This roadhouse is in the city of Bowdie, California.  Yet it seems to also be on the cross-shadow paths of many of these similar shadows.  So while it might be odd to come into the common room and see gunfighters conversing with each other despite the fact one is Caucasian and the other is reptilian.
It is a nexus.  Through this place run a many shadow pathways.  Most in the same general epoch. The natives of this world have long since learned to not ask questions of the oddities that occasionally arrive here.  Similar to Callahan's Crosstime Saloon, Mc Hood's Roadhouse is a gathering place for the eclectic and the lone wolves.
