The Texas Chain Saw Massacre – Hands

Coming straight from the pages of Kim Henkel's character bible, Hands is a distant cousin to the Slaughter Family, and has now cemented himself as an Uncle to Leatherface. His grisly and violent nature makes him a formidable threat to the roster of Victims in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Hands will change up the gameplay of TSCM even further with his ability, Ripstall. A former gearhead and mechanic, he knows all about different machines of all sizes. His Ripstall ability allows him to forcibly rip out valves and fuses on any map.

Additionally, he can start up the generator or battery nearly instantly if a Victim has been able to turn it off. To coincide with this ability, Hands uses homemade electro traps from old cattle prods that can be placed on barricades, crawlspaces, and other metal objects to booby trap them. When push comes to shove, Hands can always use his sizable body to barge any player who dares to approach him. All these things combined make Hands a great asset to team composition and an amazingly useful character that can forcibly shut down exits, containing the Victims.
