A character possessed by an evil spirit from a cursed dagger. The joke being, the spirit (and seemingly everyone else) really doesn't care about its host, frequently leaving the poor guy dazed on the floor in the middle of the street
The spirit enjoys murder, alcohol and modern cuisine. Recently it has been learning to read and practices by reading out adverts

He is both a close-range debuff and ambush character. His mobility is not very good but he has some survivability through barriers. His 3 gives him a VERY safe scout and chase tool that should help him not get got, but it might be a bit busted lol

Abilities

1: Meat Skewer
Passive: Melee attacks build to a long-lasting and stacking "Wound" debuff that shreds resistances
A melee attack with charges. Has a decent range but needs to be aimed since it's a stab motion. Hold alt-cast to stab once, otherwise spend all available charges to quickly stab multiple times
with later upgrades, hitting an enemy with three stabs in quick succession stuns

2: Cold Cuts
Passive: Gain health regen while stealthed

Active: Stab self, dealing self-damage, then gain a movement speed buff and enter stealth.

3: Buffet
Gain a small barrier that stacks with any existing barriers, and enter spirit form, leaving the body collapsed on the ground.
The spirit can't use any abilities, items or stamina actions and its gun is replaced with something like the Drifter gun (dealing spirit damage). Spirit form has a fast movement speed and can fly, and its attacks reset the duration of Wound on the enemy.
The spirit can still melee and parry, and the passive from 1 still applies. If you are in stealth before entering spirit form (like from your 2), the passive from 2 also applies, but only your real body is in stealth.
The enemies see only your spirit form on the minimap (with a special icon), but if your body is discovered, it also appears on the map when your spirit form is visible.
You are in spirit form for as long as you have any barrier left. The body takes x1.25 damage, but the spirit takes only x0.25. It is possible to hit both body and spirit with the same AoE ability
Your spirit cannot leave a certain range without taking damage (at level 0 it's around tower-to-tower)
Recast to cancel early (this doesn't cancel any remaining barrier from this ability)
When your spirit form is cancelled or destroyed, reveal your location to anyone close to your body
At level 3, you can also use active items in spirit form.

4: Baste
After a short delay dash and stab enemy (on-target), dealing high damage and a Wound. Anyone behind the enemy is showered with blood, being dealt some damage and however much Wound the target has.
