History:
When Ronald Bucklin's mutant ability to manipulate metal through the use of magnetism surfaced in his late teens, the family knew that it was Ronald who would have to leave the holler' to go into the world and make the money that would lift the family out of the 1700's and into the present. He married his 3rd cousin and went out in search of success. He soon joined a Circus as the Fabulous Man-Magnet and that was where he met Byran "Big Top" Branson, the Owner and Ring Leader of the B&B Traveling Circus. Ronald's boss knew better than to let him use his powers at full strength, he knew a side show act that can bend spoons with "Magic" will not be chased off stage in some places like a Mutant who could lift cars with magnetism would. After Roland had been with the troop for a couple months, Bigtop called Buckshot Bucklin into his office and told him that the circus was a front for his secret mutant band of bankrobbers. The whole circus was just a front for the sideshow which was composed entirely of mutants and was brought together by Bigtop to rob the banks of places they had stoped in the year before. Buckshot soon learned that the troop would come into a town stake out the bank and then plan the next years tour path to a town 50 miles outside of the places they had played the year before. That way they had never been there recently and would not be connected to the crimes. When Buckshot was wounded and left behind at a failed attempt, he swore he would destroy Bigtop. Buckshot now travels the country with his relative/bride and robs banks to fund his crusade to wipe out the Circus and kill Bigtop. Unfortunately for him he isn't smart enough to succesfuly track them down, he stumbles around five steps behind Bigtop at all times. Although no matter where he goes he always sends 25% of every heist home to the family back in the holler'.
