Skullcrusher

Skullcrusher, formerly known as Pierce Hudson, is a major character from New Nestor. Former leader of the Wheelers, he was easily brainwashed by his right hand Spinemelter.
== Personality ==
Skullcrusher is extremely devoted and loyal to those he trusts, often to a fault as seen with Spinemelter. He strongly opposes killing, but will do it when necessary. He is also obsessed with the Mad Max film franchise. He loves bodybuilding, cars, and being a mechanic.
== History ==
=== Before the Apocalypse ===
Pierce Hudson owned a used car shop, which would later become the base of the Wheelers. He was also a mechanic on the side.
=== New Nestor Campaign ===
Skullcrusher is first seen when Axeloiler brings the party to him to have him donate supplies to them. He hands them several duffelbags before sending them on their way, with Axel being sent with them to make sure they can get on their feet. When Roger Lombardi asks about this, Skullcrusher whispers to him that Axel needs more sunlight.
Skullcrusher is alerted to the coup by Axel, with Roger having to calm the situation down, as Axel indicated it was Skullcrusher's fault. Skullcrusher sends Spinemelter to investigate, unknowingly feeding into his plan, and invites the party to a dinner that only Garlos eats, getting poisoned in the process.
The party is brought into the meeting hall for execution, where the brainwashed Skullcrusher is fighting them, sending Blitzers at them, before coming down himself. Roger uses Heather to knock his helmet off, with Garlos kicking him in the balls shortly after. The party doesn't forgive him for this action, with him being dethroned as the Wheelers' leader, with Axel taking his place.
Spinemelter is present when the party is taken in by the Wheelers after the destruction of The Sunken Clam, though does nothing of note.

=== Spinemelter ===
Skullcrusher put all of his trust in Spinemelter, but was later betrayed by his former best friend.
