Bio:
The deranged serial killer, codenamed Leatherface, comes from a family of cannibalistic psychopaths in Travis County, Texas. Leatherface is known to murder random people, mainly those who disturb him, and other such gruesome acts as eating his victims and making masks out of his victims' flesh. His body count consists of 50 people. He's killed many people, all except for one of the victims during the time of his recent massacre. The victim, identified as Erin Hardesty, manage to escape from his clutches after cutting off his right arm. But despite having it cut off, he managed to carry it with him for he tried to catch her, but it was too late. Two cops who discovered 33 corpses in his dwelling tried to prosecute Leatherface, but they both die by his hands. One day later, his uncle rebuilt Leatherface's right arm by giving him a new right forearm. Now Leatherface is on the loose once again, and will stop at nothing to find the girl who fled from her fate, only then will he get his revenge.

He stirs it and seasons it with salt and pepper. 5 seconds later, The meal turns out to be ready for everything jumps out of the bloody pot and Baby Leatherface catches the stuff on a steel dish, which is revealed to be a human head (the head resembles that of a combatant Kitana fights in Sub-Zero's Story Mode chapter), along with severed limbs and cut-up pieces of everything else that was left of him.

Ending:
Leatherface went to Outworld under the impression that his escaped victim, Erin Hardesty, could be hiding in another world so he wouldn't find her back at Earthrealm, but he could not find her anywhere. After killing Shao Kahn in the tournament, he continued his search around Outworld until he was encountered by Daegon, leader of the Red Dragon clan. Due to Leatherface's mental illness that causes him to be startled, which always result to him killing whoever startled him in the first place, Leatherface was about to saw the Red Dragon leader in half, but Daegon stopped Leatherface from killing him and explained that he not only learned about him and his infamous manslaughters, but also informed him that he found Erin, who he also learned escaped from and almost killed Leatherface. Deagon escorted Leatherface to the Red Dragon Clan's Stronghold, where Mavado introduced the Texan serial killer a tied-up Erin Hardesty. Leatherface activating his chainsaw and maliciously sawed Erin in half until she was no more. The girl who broke free from Leatherface's clutches actually became dead and vengeance was finally his.
Here's a GF entry for another movie character and this time, it's NOT a Warner Bros. character (or at least, not a character with connections to Warner Bros. like Freddy and Jason are). Besides, a GF doesn't have to be someone from a Warner Bros. project anyways.

Anyways, we all know Leatherface from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise. He's that batshit-insane mass murderer with a chainsaw who's based off a real-life serial killer named Ed Gein, who both ate people and wore their skin as clothing (hence the fact that Leatherface is a cannibal who wears a mask made of human flesh). And when you think about it, October's a pretty good month to release this GF in, since October's known for the holiday known as Halloween, where everything related to horror fiction comes into play.

Notes:
*I inspired his story off Sweet Tooth's story from the Twisted Metal reboot where he's obsessed with killing Sophie Kane, who escaped from his clutches, whereas Leatherface's story indicates that he wants to kill Erin Hardesty, the final girl from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre reboot. Only unlike Sweet Tooth, who didn't get to kill Sophie at all (though this is only because she committed suicide), Leatherface does get to kill Erin in his ending for she was still alive while hiding from him anyways.
*On a related note, while Leatherface gets his severed am replaced with a hook in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre comic book (no really, just read the comic, which takes place after the events in that movie), the prosthetic arm he receives according to his story here is rather close to his original forearm, which was severed by Erin before fleeing from death.
*His babality is actually a parody of Kirby's Final Smash from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, only he's not cooking his opponent, but rather dismembered parts of what appears to be Kitana's opponent from Sub-Zero's chapter in Story Mode.
*Threw in the Red Dragon Clan in his ending. It looks like either Daegon or Mavado must've found out about Leatherface, his murders,, and his victim Erin, before meeting up with Leathy here. Why would Daegon care about helping Leatherface you may ask? Maybe he thinks Leatherface would make a fine apprentice for the Red Dragons, never mind that Leatherface probably chooses to kill people on his own. Who knows, he might be of use when it comes to Daegon's do-gooding brother, Taven.
