Like, triple ex-bawks huge. Like, you'd think he was what happened when steroids and another, more potent set of steroids got together, hate ****ed, and then had a ****ed up super-steroid kid who was then given some really shady **** that Doctor Zed's forbidden third brother came up with (and I'm not saying that Dorn was experimented on by Doctor Zed's forbidden third brother . . .  but that could be your headcanon if you want). Somehow this didn't stunt Dorn's growth because in addition to being jacked up like a mofo he is pretty friggin tall. <br/><br/>Dorn's got super pale skin that doesn't tan, even in Pandora's sun. There's those dark lines under his eyes that a person gets when they don't sleep super often, either. Generally clean shaven, Dorn's black hair is glossy and slightly curly, and runs about shoulder length. <br/><br/>Dorn's wears a black trench coat with no arms. It's made out of leather. Under that, he's got a blood-stained black shirt that's got knife and bullet holes in it. He wears pants, and they are made from some kind of space age material that Dahl gives to its soldiers. Dorn killed a man for them. Thankfully they were in a crate when Dorn killed that man. He had a pair of combat boots taken from the same source, and Dorn has had to made amateur repairs to them so there's bits of metal over the toes and soles from all of the times he stomped a mudhole into some rakk-lover and walked that sonnuva skag dry.<br/><br/><strong>Gear:</strong><br/>Echodevice<br/>Bandit Shotgun<br/>Bandit Assault Rifle<br/>Hammer (it's a giant piece of metal with the business end wrapped in razorwire that's all rusty because blood)<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong> Dorn is that quiet sort of angry. Sullen and cold instead of manic and hot. There's the same sort of crazy determination that sees him run into bullets without much concern for his personal safety that you see in the classic berserker and in psychos, but Dorn isn't shouting gibberish at the top of his lungs. And when he's slamming someone's face into the ground until there's nothing left he's not saying anything at all. You might think that he's not even feeling anything either, what with his vacant, glassy-eyed psycho look while he's doing it, and you'd be right. Dorn's the kind of sociopath that just has a deep, dark, bottomless empty where a human soul should be. Naturally, this makes him eminently qualified to be a politician, lawyer, or corporate executive. However, since he's currently residing on Pandora, Dorn became a Vault Hunter, a profession for which sociopathy is a positive trait.<br/><br/>One thing Dorn doesn't really like to do is to think for himself. He's not incredibly stupid, just lazy in this regard. And Dorn doesn't really like people, or talking to people. And he's not especially greedy, either. So long as he's got enough money to cover more bullets and some pizza from Moxxi's Dorn's pretty satisfied. It helps too that he ****ing loves Bandit guns. Who needs all that shiny Hyperion [insert .gif of a hand making a jacking off motion here]* or Maliwan skinny jean-wearing hipster skag**** when you've got a gun that holds 500 hundred bullets in one clip? So Dorn's happy to leave choicier loot to other Vault Hunters because let's face it: Bandit guns are ****ing tepid diarrhea in a dixie cup and not hot **** in a champagne glass 9 times out of 10, and that other time is a variant for statistical error. <br/><br/>*also, do you see what I did there? Get it? Get it? Jacking off? Handsome Jack?<br/><br/><strong>Background:</strong> Dorn was born on the planet Phlegethon. It is one of the few planets to have the distinction of being worse than Pandora. It was originally a private prison planet run by Atlas Corporation where the worst of the worst were abandoned. Then Atlas Corporation realized that they could double dip by broadcasting the gruesome day to day struggle for survival that the inmates engaged in for money. It was win-win: Atlas got paid to take top shelf psychopaths and lock them away forever on a death world, and then they got paid when people wanted to watch those same psychopaths compete for Phlegethon's meager resources and try to fight against its flora and fauna. <br/><br/>Dorn is the result of two really ****ed up people meeting, trying to murder each other, deciding to have sex, then trying to murder each other again, and then deciding it would be more fun to team up and murder other people. 9 months later, there was Dorn. Young Dorn was a precocious youngster, and by the time he was two he had already killed half a dozen prisoners. When Dorn was five years old his parents left him to fend for himself, at first telling him they were just going out to get cigarettes. Then they never came back, and young Dorn set out on his own when food ran out. He killed his way into teenagerhood and then adultdom, learning all kinds of survival skills along the way. <br/><br/>His life would change forever when Dorn managed to ambush a ship landing some prisoners. Hardened by a life on Phlegethon, Dorn was more than a match for the Atlas goons and the fresh meat. Dorn killed them all and then rode that space ship offworld to sweet, sweet liberty. <br/><br/>That lasted for basically five minutes before the computer took over and flew to its next pre-programmed stop: Pandora. Dorn didn't understand what was happening, and no amount of threatening the ship's computer with a knife would get it to change course. <br/><br/>Like most people, Dorn felt a soul-shattering sense of dread and depression as the ship entered Pandora's atmosphere. That didn't last long, since Dorn's ambush had damaged the ship and the landing gear failed to do its job. The ship crashed, and Dorn was probably clinically dead for a couple minutes there. The crash attracted bandits, and they dragged Dorn back to their camp. Their mistake was waiting for Dorn to wake up so they could . . . do things . . . to him. Dorn murdered them all in unspeakable ways, as befitting Pandora. Then Dorn met one of the many Claptrap units that were on the planet at the time. [cue Adiago for Strings playing as a slow-motion montage plays: a Claptrap rolls up to Dorn, waving at him, then cut back to Dorn's face slowly changing from stone-faced, detached fury to an expression ineffably deep sadness and depression, and in slow motion that Claptrap says, "hello traveller!"] <br/><br/>His life, once again, took a turn for the tragic.<br/><br/>[insert events of Borderlands 1 &amp; 2, the Pre-Sequel!, and relevant expansions here; Dorn had his own adventures in this time, that we won't go over because this is too long already, with a Claptrap, who is now ****ing dead, because spoilers]<br/><br/>When Lilith put out her call for Vault Hunters, Dorn was initially skeptical, but answered. He knew it was a bad idea to get into that ship, but he did anyway, and then ****-blammo! Another crash. <br/><br/><strong>Stats:</strong><br/>Loot 2<br/>Run 9<br/>Gun 5<br/>Fight 8<br/>Think 4<br/>Talk 2<br/>Survival 9<br/>Drive 1<br/><br/><strong>Action Skill:</strong> Pretty Dead, Dead Boy - Heal 1, Shield Recharge 1, Armor 2, Recover Shields, Increased Cooldown 1<br/><br/><strong>Skill 1:</strong> Hotline Miami - skills boosting combat effectiveness, particularly melee<br/><strong>Skill 2:</strong> There Is No Love In The Afterlife - skills benefiting Pretty Dead, Dead Boy<br/><strong>Skill 3:</strong> Einharjar - skills boosting character durability, shield effectiveness, and generally things that make Dorn hard to kill</div></div>
