First things first - I would like to thank everyone that voted for this guy,it means alot to me!!
Cheerz maties! "End of Days" DESTRO For my entry into the contest - I tried to think outside the box a little bit,my first instinct was to take a character and supe him up to the max,really tech him out...as the concept was based in the future... But after some thought I decided to go the opposite route - take a character and strip them down completely. IMO Destro is a very materialistic guy,he seems to do what he does for wealth more than anything - and really covets his treasures.So thats where the idea came from. So my EoD Destro had to lose everything (and what he does has left is all but destroyed). In my story the precious family heirloom jewel that he wears was lost in the outbreak,so what he wears around his neck is simply a rock painted red - and the animal heads that hang from his belt are his "trophies"(after hed eaten the bodies...hey you gotta eat!). The idea of him hauling a heavy iron case endlessly across the wasteland just made him seem so tragic and the idea that he would try and sell the contents to any person he came across just made him seem like hed be like one of those poor rambling tramps you see who push around a shopping cart of crap all day. I came up with the idea that seeing as he was always with the Baroness - maybe she got infected and attacked him and he was forced to murder her - this coupled with the loss of all his wealth,treasures and hi-tech weapons was what broke his once strong mind.... Heres his Bio: "After the events of EOD,DESTRO lost everything....all the wealth and power he had attained through a lifetime of Arms Dealing was gone. All he could salvage were a few antique heirloom weapons and trinkets which he now drags around the wastelands...hoping to make a sale and fighting off the vicious infected monsters that occasionally attack him. He foolishly hopes to survive long enough to regain his wealth and power,not realizing that the most valuable thing he has lost is his mind." BTW I am selling this dude for $75 SHIPPED - so if you want him shoot me a pm! Thanks for looking guys - and thanks again for the votes and to TANK DRIVER & Keenan for putting on this awesome contest!! [/QUOTE]

TLD...you have two choices:
You can be a MOD and send that Destro to me. OR... You can wear this here fuzzy bunny costume ala Ralphie in "A Christmas Story" and pose for front page pictures. Seriously though man, congrats! That's absolutely fantastic!
