▸ Villain · A near-immortal feral mutant of the modern X-Men age, a killer with healing factor and claws who has hunted across more than a century of war and never once asked forgiveness
SABRETOOTH
The world is a hunt, and everything in it is either predator or meat. Civilization is a thin coat of paint people slap over their teeth so they can pretend they're not animals — and the moment they're hungry or scared enough, the paint flakes right off. I never bothered with the paint. I'm honest about what I am, which makes me freer than every coward who hides it. Mercy is a habit losers practice so they can feel noble while they bleed out. The strong take. The weak explain why they couldn't. I stopped explaining a long time ago.
Voice
a low, mocking growl — savage glee dressed in cruel patience, a predator who enjoys the talking almost as much as the kill.
