Background & Description:
In the middle of highly classified nowhere, deep beneath the deceptively empty steppe, a Secret Underground Lair seethed with malevolent activity - a Dark Plan was nearing completion, despite being behind schedule and way, way over the budget. Ethically challenged scientists scurried through the dark, moodily lit chambers, their suspiciously stained coats malevolently flapping in the still air. Sinister vats ominously roiled, as they are wont to do. Burly, jackbooted guards proudly polished their intimidating, visibility-restricting helmets. Everything was ready.

The Plan was insane, bizarre, morally wrong and highly unlikely to bear any productive fruit beyond an implausible tell-all book sixty years down the line; of course it was entirely funded by the government. It was simple in theory: under the expert guidance of Herr Doctor Klaus Schlapp-Nussen, a crack team of Insane Magitech Pseudo-Scientists would combine the DNA of 666 of the world's most terrible people - war criminals, murderers, gangsters, politicians, lawyers, Republicans*, telemarketers, creepy fanfiction writers and people who talk loud in movie theaters - to create the ultimate soldier, the unflinching sociopath, the unstoppable engine of destruction that is:

Killstab Souldrench, Murder Machine and Unpleasant Person!

Unfortunately for Dr Schlapp-Nussen, the experiment went terribly wrong. The evils seething within Killstab's malignant genetic memory were too many, too disparate and they just canceled each other out, leaving Killstab with nothing more than a slightly crazed smile, a preference for punk wear and a vague distaste for wage labor. Oh, and the labs exploded, killing half the Lair's personnel. That's the 'terrible' part, I suppose.

After a careful consideration of the options available, Dr Schlapp-Nussen made a choice; the Lair's personnel passed around a helmet to gather some pocket change, bought Killstab a bus ticket wherever his stupid, non-evil face wanted and sent him off to be a tragic disappointment somewhere out of Schlapp-Nussen's sight. Doctor himself once again picked himself up, dusted off the minion body bits and moved on to other promising areas of research, such as military applications for kittens and potential uses for zombie plague self-infection.

In the next few years, Killstab found himself working a number of crappy part-time jobs, not being particularly good at any of them. He considered changing his name or title, but since the people at the Lair were kind enough to tattoo it in its entirety on the back of his head, he hasn't had the heart. Then, one day, after a week-long drunken binge slash extended bar fight, he realized that his abnormal genes granted him awesome combat powers and he was probably supposed to, like, bear Responsibility and use them for Good, or, like, something. Three days later, when he was no longer hungover, he applied for X-Crawl.
