Razor the living drill
Razor the living screw
Razor the living screw is what they call him. He looks like a Zombie and half bull. His salient features are having a drill for a hand and knife fingers. Razor eats wild animals, fish and electric pylons because he needs to generate power and energy for his drill. He lives in a hole at the bottom of the ocean and it is entirely made out of fire and acid.
Razor is 24 years old and he was born 1989 and his dad is 56 years old and his mum is 46. His brother’s name is Raf and he is 19. His favorite activity is playing football and slicing hard wood and drilling trees. He spends most of his time outside and his favorite hobby is eating. He mostly detests noodles because he can't cut it easily and playing golf because it’s boring. When he moves, he walks with his head up high and his hands in front of his face wobbling to find his balance. He has a tendency to walk more to his side. Also sometimes when he attacks he charges like a bull and his horns go right through his opposition. When he charges he has a super laser pulse that suffocates his enemy, even if they are stronger than him. Another unique ability he can do is his drill he can summon other giant drills and he can dominate the world if he wishes to.
