#i think abt how dt17 goes from insisting he's NOT stupid to using the intelliray on himself a lot but i dont think it'd work for this guy

@randomlyneik dt47 steelbeak has become real 🫡 i can't think of any good name changes for him yet but i have thoughts for his story:

[Steelbeak]

Used to do petty crimes and street fighting, but in an accident his face became super messed up. [Black Heron] fixed his beak, but he's basically forced to join FOUL (Fiendish Organization for Universal Larceny) because she can control whether it opens or closes (ex. end of DT17 s3e3)

His suave but violent and bossy personality is partly genuine in his enjoyment of villainy, but is ultimately to feel in control of his situation.

He would betray [Black Heron] if he could. Though, a lot of FOUL members do prefer him over her... Probably gay but he has a job so he's not gonna think about that.

He still works under Heron, but is high enough in the ranks that he has his own set of loyal goons. I wanted his outfit to be more casual/easier to fight in because he's doing more of his own dirty work compared to dwd!Steelbeak (this guy is still a schemer though!!)

if people have thoughts for his story, name, or other design stuff i would love to hear it!! though i am personally leaning for the non-sublety of the prison bar vest LOLL
