3)Characteristics

-Background:

The Tann family has run their locally owned butcher shop for three generations. For Sawyer’s father, there was nothing more important in his life, even coming before his only child. Sawyer grew up in isolation; his mother left when he was five years old and his dad, frankly, didn’t care at all about Sawyer. That is, he didn’t care until Sawyer’s tenth birthday, when Sawyer received a gold watch and training from his father; training to become a butcher. At the age of ten, Sawyer began to cut things apart; things that he knew were once alive. He loved it, if only because he couldn’t bear to disappoint his father.

At the age of 12, Sawyer killed his first creature, a pig handed over for slaughter when it was presumed dead. The boy looked on sadly, as the pig struggled weakly on the butcher block. But he couldn’t disappoint his dad. He couldn’t! The boy grabbed a butcher’s knife on the table, ended the pig’s life, and carved it as per usual, trying to still the pounding of his heart, and the strangest soaring sensation in the pit of his stomach.

At the age of thirteen, Sawyer asked his dad if he could train to become a Huntsman. After a few weeks and a LOT of reassurance that yes, Sawyer would be taking over the butcher’s shop; this was just for training and defense, his dad finally agreed and Sawyer was placed into Sanctum Academy. Even as he furthered his education, going on to Haven Academy, he had no idea why he was so fixated on his training. He didn’t know told him to explore the Emerald Forest, even after he had both a partner and a token. But he learned. In Professor Port’s class, he was eager to prove his worth as a fighter and so chose to take on the boarbatusk Port had brought. It was as he cut the monster down that he realized exactly why; what had been plaguing him since the age of 12; a morbid fascination with the slaughter of animals.

He dismissed it as ‘normal’ for a butcher’s son and put it out of his mind. It wasn’t until his friend and team leader Jason confronted him about it that he realized that he could breathe; his team felt the same way he did! He was ecstatic; unconditional acceptance was something he had never known. So in is fourth year, when Jason suggested they try something new, he was all for it. And he stayed in full support of the plan even after the details had been revealed. After all, he’d killed pigs before, why should killing people be any different? And he couldn’t disappoint his best friends…

-Personality:

The son of a neglecting father and an absent mother, acceptance and kindness aren’t things that he was aware existed until he was put in team JSPR. As such, he’s devoted to his team with the fervor of a cult member, willing to die if he thinks it may help his team (and willing to kill whether or not…). He’s not the person you’d want to sit and have lunch with; he’s quiet and reserved thanks to growing up in isolation. To keep his team from getting caught, he keeps his murderous urges on a tight leash, but when the restraints are removed, he doesn’t care who he cuts down; the only thing that will save you is being on team JSPR.

-Likes: His team, killing, butchering, red meat

-Dislikes: Disappointing others, screwing up, vegetables.

4) Trivia:

-Notable relationships: (I’ll fill this in when I decide names for members 3 and 4 of JSPR)

-Notes:

Hunter Extension

I) Weapons

-Name: Massacre

-Type: High-Powered Chainsaw Minigun

-Short Description: Holstered as a chainsaw attached to his back. To transition, the blade shifts right, off centering itself, before the blade folds in half, revealing four gun barrels. The chain retracts, the magnets holding the chain to the (Runner?) deactivating, allowing the chain to slip inside. The bottom part of the chainsaw motor chassis folds down, engaging the magazine, which is interchangeable.

II) Semblance

-Name: Bloodbath Waltz

-Short Description: Each time the user is hit (regardless of damage dealt to him), Sawyer gets slightly stronger and loses more self-control. (If you need an example, it doesn't matter if he gets hit with a bullet or a rocket, he's going to gain the same small amount of physical strength.  He prefers to fight against minigun-wielders, not people with rocket launchers.)

-Activation Cue: a darkening red Miasma surrounding him, and more and more erratic behavior.

-Link to his Personality: He feels like he has to be perfect, that every little mistake is him letting his team down, that each hit is bringing him closer to failing his team. So the more individual times he gets hit, the more he feels he has to redeem himself. (PS, is this what you guys want for this section? I'm shooting in the dark, here...)

III) Combat Info

-Class/Position- Physical Tankbuster

-Landing strategy: Lodging Massacre into a tree and pulling it out when he’s slowed to a stop.

-Fighting Style: Sawyer’s general strategy is “Hit whatever moves”. He favors offense over defense, speed, or strategy; he’s physically the strongest of the team and (not counting Jason’s increased regeneration) has the most Aura of the team, but can be beaten by anyone who can read and avoid his strikes. The tricky part is reading his moves; as Bloodbath Waltz leads him to change up his attack style. If pushed, Sawyer will not hesitate to hit himself with Massacre to increase his Semblance’s power.
