+====RUSTLERS====
+Rustlers, Raiders or Cattle-thieves (or pig-forkers) specialize in sneaking up to farms and ranches and stealing the horses, cattle, sheep or pigs and running off.  Sometimes they go on riding horses, sometimes on foot, they try to avoid fighting, but aren't above killing or kidnapping shepherd boys.  The worst, just the worst.
