Description
Another LoK-OC, because I need to draw to get my head free. Don't judge me!

I tried something very diffrent with the lighting this time and played with layer-modes. It was a lot of fun and I really like the result, he's one creepy guy! I'm not too happy with the fire though, it looks very water-y but maybe that's just his style to do it?

He's another addition to my wide pool of OCs. Because I don't have enough already - NOT. XD And he's a figure from the underground as well (of course, no good people in Elby's world!).

About him:

Reed (that's how he calls himself) is a freelancing assassin in Republic City. His identity is unknown and he can only be contacted through a few selected middlemen but even these individuals don't know his name or face. There's not much information about him except the fact that he's male, of average height and an exceptional firebender. His trademark bending-style is bending his fire to an extremely high-temperature whip that can cut straight through flesh and bones. He tries to keep the emitted light as low as possible, seclusion is part of his job and he doesn't need a bright light telling his victims his location, but it's still quiet conspicuous, hence he uses his bending only in the last moment, for the kill. Until then he's practically invisible (the eyes of his mask are not as shiny as in the picture, I only did that because I thought it looked cool) XD
Characteristic about him is that when he kills his victims their head is reduced to nothing but a burnt puddle of flesh and bone that resembles minced meat, earning himself the nickname "The Mincer" in the media (for his clients he's "Reed" though). He achieves that trademark-kill by quick slashes with his bending and does it to ensure that he doesn't leave the job undone and from a weird sense of mercy: to save his victims from the shame of others seeing their pained expression in death. Some people say he's the 2nd coming of Koh the face-stealer but that's just an urban myth.
He always works alone and wears a mask with an included nightvision-technology (similar to the chi-blocker googles). His close-combat-skills are excellent and he is on par with chi-blockers, he can't block chi himself though.
He can't bend lightning or redirect it.

Probably my most overpowered character ever (besides Haroma) but I kinda like him. Not sure what's behind that mask...
What do you think about the character? I want honest opinions please, I'm not too sure if I overdid it with the special-abilities :/

He's neither enemy nor friend of my other OCs but Kuzai is one of his contact-men.
