Redid bruce lore
Tw cannibalism, slight gore, murder, arson :]
So its kinda the same? The begining at least
His mom partied, drank, did drugs, and eventuallh got pregnaant when sleeping around
He was born wahoo! But she lwk didnt care about him and mistreated him, abusing him verbally
Bruce was a thick-skulled kid, not dumb, but very stubborn
When he was 5, he was put into the foster system, in which he IMMEDIATLEY ran away from his first home and lived on the streets, changing his last name to "greatman" to prove what he promised to become.
In his time on the streets, he did what he could to survive, whether that be stealing food, drinking half empty bottles of alcohol from dumpsters, or fighting in alleyways for shelter
When he was 17, he accidentally killed a man at night, simply for self defense. But he realized that this guy could have stuff to survive- so he looted him. He now had 2 wallets (neither of which were the man`s) with around $200, a pocket knife, skme keys, a lighter, and the body of the man lying in front of him.
He decided to throw the body in the dumpster and light it on fire to dispose of the body. The smell of burnt flesh was surprisingly appealing to him, probably since he hadnt eaten in days. He tried to out the fire, and removed the arm of the guy, deciding to consume it. He fell in love with its taste, and would never be the same. Every so often (whenever the craving hit), he would kill someone to cannibalize, and keep their remains hidden.
Eventually (when 20), he got a job at a butchery. He still hadnt had a proper education or a car for transportation, but the job made up just enough for him to thrive a bit. Once on whis way out from closing the shop, he went to a bar to celebrate being at hus job a whole year (being now 21) after drinking plenty, he left to go to his apartment, having finally saved up to live in one.
On his way out, he saw a familiar face- his mother, but she looked... normal? And a boy about 12 years old. He decided to follow them home, wondering what she was doing. He found out that boy was her son, and he immediatley became jealous. They were living normally, from ehat he saw through the window. She wasnt drinking, or shouting, or yelling. The boy wasnt covering his ears, or crying, or yelling back, or screaming. They were having a normal, happy, family dinner.
Bruce decided to get revenge on his mother for abusing and abandoning him, so he decised a plan. When everything was dark, he snuck through their back door, and crept into the little boy's room. He woke him up, but told him to be silentor hed be killed. Then heled the boy to his mom's room, turning on thr lights.
His mom turned over, and woke up frightened. Bruce was holding a machete to the boys neck
After yelling back and forth, with the boy hostage, bruce finally decided to let go of the boy, who ran to his mom sobbing. He stared, being even more envious than before, so he plunged the weapon into the back of the boy. His mom cried, reaching for the phone.
Bruce saw her and cut off her hand with a wipe of the machete, hacking off her arms. He forced her to watch as he stabbed and disembodied her son, and cutting off his head. He threw it onto the bed besides her, before cutting off her head and burnung down the house.
He went to his apartment, gathered his things, and fled, stealing his moms car. He drove until he was out of gas, and walked a couple miles more into a new town. He eventually found another butchershopto work at, where he rose to the top after 18 years and became the owner. He still has tendencies to kill and cannibalize, which he does, and has a special fridge in his butchery for human meat :3
Ill redraw him again soon, but heres old art of him (last 2 by @bees-with-a-camera and @gekowo )
