"Your Gun, My Head" is a Russian roulette performance art routine developed by John Havelock while touring with Carnevale Tenebre.
History
Havelock, often referred to as Judge Havelock or simply Havelock, is a mathematician alleged time-traveller, usually found in Periphery between 1801 and 1911.
Havelock runs an unlicensed Transdimensional corporation functioning as timeline-rewriting service for Transdimensional law agencies.
In order to fund these activities he periodically tours with Carnevale Tenebre, the malign supernatural performing arts venue.
In his "Your Gun, My Head" routine, Havelock invites any Carnevale reveler to play Russian Roulette, with the reveler(s) providing the matched revolvers.
Havelock has estimated that he plays Your Gun, My Head "about seventy times a year", although his friend Niles Cartouchian is known [how?] to have put the number at "at least two hundred and fifty-six" times per years.
He is sometimes referred to as "The man who doesn't get killed" as a consequence of his statistically improbable survival rate.
