I live in a world surrounded by sharks. My body is scared and covered with marks. Like those before me, I carry a fisherman?s three prong spear. Ready to harpoon my catch, if it becomes near. I am known for my violent temper and I am vindictive as well. Cross my path or upset me and I will cause you a living hell.
