Now Viewing: sawyer_the_cleanerTag type: Character Sawyer The Cleaner (掃除屋ソーヤー), first name Frederica, is a side character in Black Lagoon. She deals with removing dead bodies and cleaning up after them for the various criminal elements in the city of Roanapur, in addition to carrying out executions and hunting the occasional bounty, her weapon of choice being a large chainsaw. She's a short, slim, and pale young lady with blue eyes, always looking tired, with signature bags under her eyes and her messy black hair worn up. She bears a large and distinct scar across her neck from once having her throat slit, an attempt on her life which left her unable to speak without the aid of an electrolarynx or similar device, which she's emotionally dependent on and typically always has with her (as a hand-held device carried in a holster, or as a collar device worn around her neck). Her casual clothes are in a gothic style, typically a striped long sleeved shirt and t-shirt with a cross design worn over it, together with a dark skirt bearing a frilled trim, and black thighhighs with leather boots. For her cleaning jobs she's covered up in protective scrubs, with rubber boots, masks, goggles, hair covers, and similar. As she's usually fully covered by those clothes and mostly interacts with others in a professional setting while seldom speaking, very few knew her full name or what she looked like, most assuming she was a guy. The voice she manages to produce with her devices is deep in tone, sounding strained and hoarse, with frequent pauses in sentences and words. She paints her fingernails and toenails black, drawing little white crosses on them, and is at times shown with a series of piercings in her ear. She looks gloomy at a glance, bears a series of scars across her wrists, has a difficult time dealing with losing control of her voice devices, and misses being able to sing, but she also often comes across as fairly cheerful and talkative at times, still likes humming music, taking sadistic pleasure in her job at times, and she has a morbid sense of humor, delighting in upsetting and grossing out others with macabre details of death and decay. Presumed to have lived a more lonesome life before, she ends up becoming good friends with Shenhua and Rotton The Wizard, the latter who saved both their lives after a failed attempt at catching a bounty guarded by Lagoon Company. In late 2019, she got her own spinoff manga, Black Lagoon: Sōjiya Sawyer – Kaitai! Gore Gore Musume (BLACK LAGOON 掃除屋ソーヤー 解体!ゴアゴア娘, lit. "Black Lagoon: Sawyer the Cleaner - Dismemberment! Gore Gore Girl"), illustrated and written by Tatsuhiko Ida with supervision by Hiroe Rei. Following the tone of the earlier light novels written by Gen Urobuchi, her own manga is a very exaggerated take on Black Lagoon's setting and characters, more extreme, less grounded in reality, less serious, and more bizarre.
