Unique Moves

Turntable Takedown (Low Profile, Back)

The Executioner sneaks behind his target and grabs them from the hip, before lifting his victim into the air and smashing them into the ground, head-first. The victim's weight is directed to the back of their neck, snapping the spinal cord and killing them instantly.

Burying the Hatchet (Low Profile, Front)

The Executioner approaches his target from the front, before taking out his axe and swinging it into the side of his victim's neck. The force from the blow severs their spinal cord and shoulder blade, instantly killing the unlucky target.

Culling Blade (High Profile, Back)

The Executioner grabs his target from behind and pulls them down to their knees, holding them with a firm grip, before raising his axe above his head and digging it into his victim's back with force. He then frees his blade by forcing his victim forwards with his foot.

The Chest Crasher (High Profile, Front)

The Executioner runs at his target from the front, before taking his axe and hacking at their chest with it. Afterwards, his victim falls to the ground, dead from their wound.

Dead in the Dirt (Bench Kill)

The Executioner grabs his target by the head, before dragging them off the bench and throwing them onto the floor. As they attempt to get up, the Executioner swings his axe down, severing their spine.

Splitting Heads (Aerial Kill)
