Cherish Your Lives,
Motherfuckers: Jigsaw

In the Saw movies, Jigsaw is a masterminding antagonist.
He’s not a serial killer, of course; he simply puts people into
sadistic traps where they have to murder each other or
grotesquely injure themselves if they have any hope of survival.
His proclaimed motivation is to make people value their lives—
the darkest version of bringing excitement and meaning to the
lives of the people, which is what the more “heroic” system
members of Draven strove for.

Due to online purges, I know very little about Draven’s
Jigsaw. Tony will later claim he existed as early as 2010, but the
earliest concrete dates I have of his existence come much later, in
2015. He apparently designed some Saw-inspired traps that Tony
Stark will later claim credit for in his StarkTech Custom
Gear/Metaverse Cosplay business. They include an
exsanguination collar (citation available upon request), and a
"reverse bear trap" that looks like a combination of muzzle and
vice (citation available upon request). Draven will claim these
traps were made in 2010 or 2011, but Jigsaw is still building in
September 2015, when Trinity posts a photo of one of "JS' traps in
progress," another kind of collar (citation available upon request).

The only other evidence I have of Jigsaw's existence is a
single Facebook post about Saw IV (2017 October 21). They talk
with Draven’s younger brother about the movie, and remark,
"He's still in here, incidentally" (comment #2).

Draven continues, "I've dreamt of doing an immersive trap
house for Halloween SINCE 2011. [...] But designing traps meant
to be realistic enough JUST to scare the shit out of paying
customers is harder than designing... well, you know. […] Every
time somebody gets too traumatized to go on, they can exit the
'exhibit' and leave […] and the last person standing to have gone
through the most/made it through, wins" (comment #9)
Draven's younger brother replies, "Knowing you,
'winning' will just be getting some 'shame on you' lecture about
how humanity is a cancer and they are perpetuating the problem
by choosing to remain." He then adds, "I'm all for it" (comment
#14).

That is all I know about Jigsaw.
