Unique Moves

Culling Blade (High Profile, Back)

Turntable Takedown (Low Profile, Back)

The Executioner sneaks behind his target and grabs him or her from the hip, before lifting the 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 victim.

The Chest Crasher (High Profile, Front)
