Slaughterhouse 9

The Slaughterhouse 9 were a gang of roaming serial killers from Worm. The team began as a brute squad for hire under the leadership of King, but after King's death in 1987 Jack Slash moved gradually away from this, with the team killing anyone who thought the nine would work for them, killing and torturing their way across the continental United States.

## Members

The founding members of the Slaughterhouse 9 were

* Crimson, a brute that could absorb the blood of others to grow in size and strength temporarily.

* Harbinger, a combat thinker.
* Jack Slash, able to attack with bladed weapons from a distance.
* King, able to redirect any attack on him to anyone he had recently touched.
