Forge

Forge is a living blast furnace, his appearance would be similar to NRG from Ben 10.

Gun
His gun would be a minigun that replaces his right arm, its firing speed gets faster the longer he shoots.

Abilities
1 - Magma Ball
Throw a ball of magma that deals damage and lingers on the ground. Enemies that touch the magma for too long are set on fire for 3 seconds.

2 - Thermal Thrust
Release a fire blast beneath your feet that launches you into the air and damages nearby enemies.

3 - Heat Wave
Create a damaging circle of heat around you, hitting an enemy applies a stacking damage amplification for Forge against them.

4 - Volcanic Eruption
Spew hot magma that lingers on the ground around you, enemies that touch it are lit on fire for 3 seconds and if they touch it again the duration resets.

You are aware that Mcginnis's name in earlier versions of the game was Forge, right?

Besides that, neat ability concepts for the hero.
 
Gameplay wise, the gun mechanics are too similar to Mcginnis, but other than that they are cool abilities.

Lore wise, it would probably need a redesign to fit into deadlock lore. I feel like the closest you can get is some ixian similar to infernus, but that would make it too similar to infernus.

A lot of heroes have similar guns so i dont its that big of a deal but feel free to suggest something more original. As for the design i was thinking Forge would be some kind of golem like Bebop, but instead of working in a scrap yard he would be working in a factory like a steel mill.
 
Here's a more original design i made, i cant draw so it sucks but you get the idea.

I think the lore is easy, we already have Sinner's Sacrifice that's sort of alive because it contains souls. The story should be like someone getting burnt alive by criminals inside the furnace. The gun could be a flame thrower maybe?

I like your idea for the lore. The gun could maybe work like a mix between Bebops laser and the flamethrower from tf2 and the alt fire shot fire balls like the dragons fury

Make him an ixian that has some rare disease that makes him EXTREMELY hot, to the point where he endangers those around him. The suit is there to protect others and control his power output.
