In my newest version (post before ur post) the scar is easy to spot.
I don't really like your edit, he doesn't look cool or something ( no offense ). The hood is a bit too far away, I admit. I don't really have a problem with the waist, ur edit make it look a little like a midget or something..

I think I still stick to my newest version.
About the background story, I didn't really came up with an idea really. I just wanted a badass main character, in a actiony game. He'll have a cool-looking weapon, so I think I'm going for a slicing maniac or something
