Art by: Weh
Bio by: JohnnyGang

pshhh... nothin personnel kid.... The Black Hearted, EVIL murderer of Sonic and REALLY HUGE badass, Coldsteel has come to Dicey Tumble to show the world just how freakin' hardcore he is. Do not listen to what some stupid FOOLS may say about him (like Kyle from school, that bastard), your feeble little human mind cannot even come close to comprehend the sheer coolness that he eminates..... but...... ur free to try >:)..........

THEIR FOCUS SOURCES ARE:

- Sonic the Hedgehog, and artists featured on the franchise
(Green Hill Zone, All Hail Shadow, I Am The E.G.G.M.A.N, I Am... All Of Me)
(Crush 40, Hideki Naganuma, Hyper Potions, Michael Jackson)

- Industrial and Nu-Metal genres
(Nine Inch Nails, Rammstein, Rob Zombie, Powerman 5000)
(Linkin Park, Drowning Pools, Slipknot, Limp Bizkit)

- AMVs and 2000's ''overly edgy'' media

(Kill La Kill, My Chemical Romance, Tokyo Ghoul, Paramore)

- Coldsteel's likes.
(hurtin people, bein badass, motorcycles, nine inch nails (the band), killing, death, punk rock, jinco jeans, skulls, darkness, hot gurls with big boobys who are sluts, ninne inch nails (on finger), earings, purple (cool kind not gay kind))

But if they get a high enough roll, you may see something else pop up!
----------------------------------------
A warrior overtaken by darkness is nothing I am unfamiliar with, but this one has power with greater potential than most. Unluckily, he seems to be too blinded by his own ego to use them in any meaningful way. What a shame.
