About

Shiv has zero interest in playing fair, which is why he relies on hit and run tactics to weaken enemies before he dives in for the kill.

LORE

A loyal member of "The Baxter Society", an international order of monster hunters, Shiv travels across North America looking to put down creatures that prey on the living.<br><br>While his less polished nature and criminal past make some of the more traditional members of the Society wary, no one can deny his effectiveness.
