## Personality

Edvin, despite his appearance, is a very sociable and outgoing person. He insists on making bad jokes whenever he feels it necessary, and will always be the first to cheer one of his friends up. This is because he has abandonment issues, and acts very friendly so he always has people who like him around him. These abandonment issues stem from the trauma caused from his death that led him to getting his ability.

## Abilities

Edvin's special ability is Scissorhands. Edvin created a new two-bladed fighting style to incorporate the blades actually being his hands. He calls this fighting style Tire Scissors. This fighting style incorporates both fencing techniques and boxing techniques to from a unique style that brings out the best in Scissorhands. Edvin is incredibly strategic, but not conventionally smart. He is very flexible and fast, but his physical strength is lacking.

## Backstory

As a child, Edvin was diagnosed with a fatal heart condition. He was successfully able to fight back the disease with his own determination and large amounts of medication. Due his frequent heart attacks, he never had time to make any friends. He was hospitalised at 15 after a check-up said he wasn't going to last without hospital care. He spent a year in the hospital, barely ever leaving his bed. At first his parents and elder sibling came to visit him every day, but due to his mother being a lawyer, his father being a chief of police who is involved in a very serious case (One of Ryan's victims), and his elder sibling going to university, he began to see them less and less, and less than a day after his 16th birthday the doctor told him he had a week to live. On his death bed, he held out, hoping for someone to come visit him, his mother, father, sibling, any of his friends from school. As he lost consciousness, he came to the conclusion that he was going to die alone with no one he knew to comfort him. After death he came face to face with the cloaked figure, who gave him a video tape and Edvin was resurrected with the ability Scissorhands.

Driven by loneliness, he went back to his house and used his ability to trash it, destroying all items of value. After this, he hit the streets, using his ability to rob stores and built up the identity of The Sullen Slasher due to his outfit of choice and the slash marks all over his crime scenes.

## Trivia
