Frontera Powder-Runner
Level 12 Outlaw · Volcanic Flats
In Desperados Destiny, Frontera Powder-Runner is a level 12 outlaw — a mid-low threat for a character finding their feet.
Field notes
A Frontera operative buying sulfur from the settler crew. Goes hostile immediately if the exchange is interrupted — he is carrying a contract he cannot afford to explain.
What you are walking into
Frontera Powder-Runner is level 12, carries 132 health, and is classed Stalker. That makes it a mid-low threat for a character finding their feet. It fights by attrition — damage that keeps working after the hand is played, so a long fight favours it rather than you. Every exchange resolves through the Destiny Deck: you draw five cards, choose what to hold, and the resulting poker hand decides how the action lands. Suit matches amplify the result, so the same fight against Frontera Powder-Runner plays out differently each time you take it on.
Where to find Frontera Powder-Runner
Frontera Powder-Runner is encountered at Volcanic Flats. You will need to have discovered and travelled to that location before it can appear as a target, and travel between regions carries its own risks — routes are rolled for interception, and a bad roll puts an encounter between you and your destination. The full entry for Volcanic Flats covers what else is there.
What it drops
A kill pays 216 experience and between $6 and $12. Its loot table can yield Contraband, Sulfur Deposit and Stolen Goods. Drops are rolled per kill, so a full set takes repeat hunting. The first time you kill any species it is also recorded in your Field Guide, which pays a large one-off experience bonus and counts toward the Guide's completion milestones.
