So I was just thinking about some alternate that would be pretty cool to see, here are some ideas

Forest fire , Maybe he died in a fire?

Burly Biker , He could swing around a chain as a weapon, or maybe a flail

Rapper , I mean, he does like chains

Prospector

Crazy Cat Lady , http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkMvKeX7erI

Thats all I have for now
