History: Born the daughter to comfortable living Irish immigrants, Patrick and Bonnie MacMahon in Raleigh, North Carolina she married at age seventeen to a middling shop owner in the town. The marriage started happily enough, and she learnt plenty of skills helping him in the shop, keeping the books and working front of house. After a few years, the couple were still childless, and the love in their marriage deteriorated to emotional neglect and then outright resentment.
In towns like Raleigh, everyone likes to talk, and soon the childless couple were the talk of the gossip net. Some claiming that infidelity on her part had been punished by God by making her barren, other saying that weakness on the side of the father could not provide children. Neither of them knew the reason, but when word reached them of money and promise out west, they both saw it as a second chance, if not to be happy, to at least be less miserable being the butt of jeers and whispers.
On the long ride to California, the cart they had all of their worldly belongings on was set upon by a small group of bandits, who commonly robbed travellers in the region. They killed Rauri's husband and the leader took her as a prize, planning of disposing of her permanently as soon as he'd had his fill. What went on in the tent remains a mystery to this day, but the morning after, instead of leaving behind a corpse, the leader emerged the next day, with a new idea and a new member.
Their arrangement eventually turned into genuine love and affection that Rauri had thought had been lost to her forever.
Taking on the name of her dead husband, George O'Dempsey, they started looking for an inconspicuous trading hole to set up a small business to be used to make a seeming front to the groups money.
The General Store that was set up at the trading post, originally specialised in travelling supplies and food stuffs, but since the discovery of the gold has branched out into nearly all fields. It's said, if you need it, the shop can get it for you.
Rauri was left to run it mostly alone, as her husband was often away on "business", and with a gift for the gab and gossiping skills she cultivated back in Ralaigh, it was not hard to find information on new scored for the growing outlaw group.
Rauri's husband never returned from his last business venture, a huge "investment" opportunity to the east, and since then she has been fronting the shop alone.
