Appearance

He was maimed by a parahuman when he got his powers,<ref name=":0" /> which may be what inspired his cape name Hatchet Face.

Abilities and Powers

Hatchet Face is a power nullifier with superhuman strength and enhanced durability.<ref name="list">Wildbow's Parahuman List</ref> This combination made him a highly efficient cape-killer, as any close-quarters battle between him and another parahuman essentially turned into a fight between a regular human and a Brute. He was vulnerable to attack from outside the range of his powers.<ref>Comment by Wildbow on Spacebattles</ref>

History

Having triggered from a bad experience involving parahumans, he announced himself by killing a superhero during a live interview.<ref name=":0">Another comment by Wildbow on Spacebattles</ref> He became a serial killer specifically targeting capes. Jack Slash convinced him that the easiest way to do this would be by joining the Slaughterhouse Nine.

Before the start of the story, Hatchet Face was killed by Cherish as part of her attempt to convince Jack Slash to let her join the Nine. Bonesaw later combined his corpse with that of Oni Lee in order to create a brain-damaged puppet called Hack Job.

Post-Timeskip

Bonesaw created nine clones of Hatchet Face for the Slaughterhouse 9000.

Trivia

He may have taken the name of Hatchet Face after the character Mona "Hatchet Face" Malnorowski, a woman with a disfigured face from the 1990s film Cry-Baby directed by John Waters.

+Hatchet Face is a member of the Slaughterhouse Nine. He joined the Slaughterhouse Nine after Winter died and was later replaced by Cherish after she used her power to make him kill himself.
+Spoiler
+A brief overview of Hatcher Fact and his power:
+Worm Cast Page (In-Depth) said:
+Hatchet Face (Deceased) – Onetime member of the Nine, supplanted by Cherish. A musclebound brute favoring his namesake weapon, Hatchet Face generated an aura that shut down the powers of others, allowing him to stalk and murder even superior capes with his enhanced strength and durability. was made into an artificial siamese twin by Bonesaw, melding him with Oni Lee to become ‘Hack Job’.
+Coil showing Dinah a picture of Hatchet Face:
+Parasite 10.6 said:
+“Hatchet Face.” This was one I hadn’t even heard of. The man didn’t wear a mask, and his head was shaved. He looked like he had been beaten, burned and just plain abused so often that his face was as much scar tissue than flesh, and he didn’t look like he’d been handsome to begin with.
+Cherish talking about how she killed Hatchet Face:
+Interlude 11g said:
+“It’s exciting. I decided I needed to earn a place on the team, both to scare our brothers away and to add some spice to my routine. Took out Hatchet Face to do it.”
+“I got the info on him a day or so ago, after I heard the Slaughterhouse Nine were in town. Isn’t he immune to powers? That’s pretty much what he does. Super strong, enhanced toughness, big… and your powers just stop working when he gets close. Or they go haywire.”
+“He is immune to powers, but he didn’t get close. See, difference between me and Daddy is that I have range. I can use my power even if I can’t see the person I’m using it on. Through walls, from the building next door. Hatchet didn’t get close enough to me to turn off my power. He tried, but it works both ways. I was prepped to run any time my power stopped working, because it told me he’d found my trail or guessed where I was.”
+Bonesaw mashed together Hatcher Face and Oni Lee to create Hack Job:
+Interlude 11h said:
+“Get it? You figure out what I did? Turn around, Hack Job.”
+Amy had figured it out, but Bonesaw’s creation demonstrated anyways. He turned his back to Amy, and she saw what looked like a tumorous growth on the back of his head, shoulders and arms. Except the growth had a face, vaguely Asian in features, and the lumps inside the growth each roughly corresponded with organs and skeletal structure. The jaw of the figure that was attached to the back of Hatchet Face’s body was working open and closed like a fish gasping for air. The stitches were still fresh.
+“You mashed them together. Oni Lee and Hatchet Face.”
+“Yes! I can’t even begin to tell you how hard it was. I mean, I had to conduct the operation from a remote location, using robots, because I would lose my Tinker powers if I got too close to the big lug. And I had to fit their bodies and nervous systems together so that they could use their powers without messing up the other.”
+“Oh god,” Amy mumbled. Is this what she’s going to do to me?
+“Had to add in a control frame and perform a spot lobotomy so Hatchet would obey me, you know. He didn’t lose much. Was never very bright.”
+“And Oni Lee?” Amy was almost afraid to ask.
+“Oh, I barely touched his brain. He suffered some moderate brain damage from his close brush with death, but I revived him. His brain’s more or less intact, even. He can’t control his body, but he’s alert and aware, and he feels everything Hatchet does,” Bonesaw smiled wider.
+“That’s horrifying.”
+“It’s not a perfect mesh. I only just started doing these mash-ups. Still practicing. Hatchet’s power isn’t working as well anymore, and I’m worried about physical wear and tear as they teleport, but it’s still one of my better works. Took me four whole hours.” Bonesaw clasped her hands in front of her, shifting her weight from foot to foot, waiting expectantly.
+Hatchet Face joined the Slaughterhouse Nine after Winter died:
+Interlude 25 said:
+Crimson, Winter’s brief-lived lover. Riley had taken the time to program their relationship into them. Crimson had been one of the first members in the group, Winter one of the more recent ones to die. Winter had been followed by Hatchet Face -there he was, over there, nine of them- and Hatchet Face had been followed by Cherish.
+Weaver noticing the Hatchet Face/King clone and thinking about Hatchet Face's powers:
+Sting 26.3 said:
+Tyrant.
+I recognized the other half of the pair. Hatchet Face and King together.
+Untouchable. King’s power took any physical harm he suffered and transferred it among his pawns. People he’d touched within the last twenty-four hours. Hatchet Face’s power meant we couldn’t even use abilities to circumvent it. Tyrant here had the enhanced strength each of the two had possessed, the enhanced durability.
+Hatchet Face is strong enough to swing an axe through a car:
+Sting 26.5 said:
+Tattletale’s voice came over the comms, “He’s strong enough to swing that axe through a car, tough enough you could flatten him with a steamroller and he’d get back up when you were done.”
+Hatchet Face fighting the Chicago Wards:
+Sting 26.5 said:
+Another slam, combined with an activation of both piledrivers, and he created a fissure, breaking up the ground beneath the two remaining Hatchet Faces.
+They made steady progress anyways. They were too strong, their stride too long. Tattletale had been right. Running was difficult at best.
+Cuff used her metallokinesis to heave a small disc of metal. Effective enhanced strength, along with the ability to control the rotation of the projectile, the ability to control the flight of it after it left her hand…
+It slammed into a Hatchet Face’s collarbone, burying into his flesh.
+He broke into a run, axe held aloft.
+...
+Then, casually, it grabbed the most unhurt Hatchet Face with both hands and whipped its upper body a full three-hundred-and-sixty degrees around to fling him into the mass of defending heroes.
+Tecton punched, his piledriver extending, but it did surprisingly little damage.
+And with the Hatchet Face so close, the Chicago Wards were left powerless. Only tinker devices worked.
+The Mannequin charged.
+Being a tinker, the Mannequin didn’t suffer at all in the midst of Hatchet Face’s power.
+“Direct your attacks on the Hatchet Face, now!” I ordered.
+A piledriver-gauntlet hit him, followed by another. Cuff used a discus to slash at his throat, but it barely cut.
+He was still alive – his power wasn’t canceled out.
+...
+She took shelter behind her no-longer-animated creation, and the Mannequin-thing turned away, directing his attention at Tecton, who was trying to bash the Hatchet Face’s head in. It was a narrow window of opportunity, here. The other, injured Hatchet Face was approaching. If he didn’t manage it in five or so seconds, there would be two to contend with.
+A heavy bullet caught the Mannequin in the back of the head. Ice cascaded out the back in a giant spike.
+Tecton used the opportunity to slam the upper ridge of his gauntlet into the Hatchet Face’s mouth and extend the piledriver full-force.
+That did it.
+...
+Chevalier fired his cannonblade again. One shot to polish off the remaining Hatchet Face that was closing the distance, and another directed at the Winter-Mannequin. The Winter-Mannequin’s power took the impetus out of the second shot.
