Shatterbird

“Shatterbird likes the psychological tests, and she was in a hell of a mood after Cherish nominated herself for the team.  Our Cherie didn’t have five minutes to rest before Shatterbird drove her into a room and sealed her in.  No food, no light, barely any water.  The room was empty, but for one glass shard.  Always edging towards her, ready to prick, cut, slice and stab the second she stopped, the moment she tried to rest.”

“Of course I do,” Shatterbird retorted, her voice sharp.  “It’s power.  It’s not about the brute force, it’s the psychological effect.  It’s about leaving a lasting impression, making an impact that reaches through your victims to affect their loved ones.  An effect that ripples outward, resounding.”
