Ehm, I think there's one thing that really needs to be specified here.

Is this "bounty hunter"
A) A person who "arrests" people and bring them in alive for a reward?
or
B) An assassin/hitman, who kills and does prety much anything (depending on his/hers principles etc.) for money.

Because a bounty hunger by definition, is actually someone who has to follow a quite strict set of rules, and he/she can't just make up rules of his own. In the end, they too have to answer to the law. Not to mention the person(s) that are apprehended have certain rights as well.

Whereas an assassin is someone who works free from public laws, and is most commonly free from other rulesets as well. Usually commanded by one of the two:
1) An underground illegal company of sorts
2) "The state". - Basicly any kind of organ high up, that supposedly follows, and maybe even makes the laws.

Get those specifics down and I think it'll be easier for both you and us to come up with some good suggestions for your theme.

Quite right Sadr. The main differences between Marshals and Hunters are rules for arrest and searching.

Hmm...also how EVIL is the evil empire?
Is the conflict, opposing political views or demonic overlord VS. good guys?

Does the bounty hunger even know if he's consigning good heroes to the torturers and executioners or just jail time.
