Kevin McFarlane McFarlane, (born: February 22, 1996), better known online as GoldenBlackHawk, formerly TomAnex, was an American gaming YouTuber and former member of the Creatures. Kevin became well known for his major role in Sly's Minecraft Daily and various co-op games with Nova and ImmortalHD.
Early YouTube and Connection with Creatures[]
Kevin had been a long time fan of the Creatures, particularly Sp00n, before he even began posting videos on his channel. He became a Machinima Realm director in 2011. By the end of the year, his channel only had a few thousand subscribers, although many of them had discovered him through ImmortalHD's Missioncraft series.

Coincidentally, the first Creature he would play with was Sp00n in a Ghost Recon: Future Soldier co-op series which also included Immortal (July 2012). The two had met on the old Creature Teamspeak many months earlier and developed a strong friendship. Kevin would also make an appearance in Sp00n's Borderlands 2 series with SketchMasta. He officially met all of the Creatures in real life at PAX Prime 2012 in Seattle, Washington.
His newfound companionship with Slyfox would eventually lead to his inclusion in Minecraft Daily as a guest, and ultimately a main cast member. Through this series, he began to play a lot more frequently with other Creatures such as Nova and Ze. During a particularly long absence from Minecraft Daily, he started to take part in several co-op games that involved Nova and Immortal. The trio has been inseparable ever since.
Creature[]
Kevin was formally announced as the newest member of The Creatures at the Creatures Panel in PAX 2014.[1] He moved in with the group in early 2015 but later in August he decided that it wasn't for him and split off from the group.
