xGravy_Boi99x slicks back his hair with a greasy switchblade-turned-comb he always keeps hanging precariously out of his back left jeans pocket before cracking his knuckles loudly in an empty room. As he reaches forwards to gargoyle over his mouse and keyboard, the fabric of his genuine leather jacket squeaks slightly as it slides against the synthetic leather upholstry of a limited edition Genshin Impact branded Iskur gamer chair from Razer. He opens up the Metacritic page of his latest victim and just goes to town on that thing. There are no survivors.
