Biography[]
The American Revolution[]
After James Bolton's commanding officer, Frederick Gideon, came upon rumors that a man named Peter Locke was manufacturing weapons and stockpiling terroristic armaments, he accompanied his investigation and subsequently searched the house with the other redcoats. The search proved fruitful, and Bolton helped uncover the attic eight pounds of presumably unauthorized gunpowder and stolen British guns. Bolton was rewarded when Gideon allowed him and his fellow redcoats to help themselves to anything in the house they desired, with wagons available to load it. However, Minutemen unexpectedly appeared and opened fire on the redcoats, eventually resulting in Bolton suffering fatal bullet wounds.
