Yeah, again, think about the person, not just the powers. I've stated the types of triggers for a trump ability (canceling powers) and for a brute ability (super strength/durability/extra mass). At the most basic level, you can conclude he was hurt very badly by a parahuman. He probably has a grudge/obsession, and that limits him. In execution, he's probably very much like Crawler, but he's a parahuman-seeking missile, going after the nearest available parahuman that might remind him of the man who maimed him and made him a monster. Quite possibly brutes, just because it fits. Prior to Jack, he hits a new city, stalks for a while, keeping an eye out for a chance to go after the biggest, strongest capes around, ideally by blindsiding them, because he's not that fast, and it defeats the point if they can just run. He hits them where they think their safe, or their guard is down - at news stations where they're giving an interview, at PRT offices, or interrupting fights to kill both the parahumans that are fighting. Jack finds him at a point of weakness, though - either Hatchet Face had a few too many lost fights/escaped parahumans, or Hatchet Face tried to kill Jack and failed. Jack convinces him that he'll kill far more parahumans if he joins the Nine, and the rest is history.--> | |||

His claim to fame was attacking a news station where a superhero was being interviewed and brutally cutting the hero down, stripping them of powers and then butchering them with swings of his namesake axe. The segment never made it onto the airwaves, but the audacity of the deed sparked attention. By lowering his enemies to a baseline level and then going after them with his still-enhanced strength and toughness, he gave every cape cause for worry. Triggering when he was injured by capes in a careless attack, he started out as a brutal vigilante, but quickly left that mission behind in favor of a simpler, brutal agenda of taking what he wanted and cutting down the biggest boys and girls around.--> | |||
