[Hero Concept] Chroma - Stained Glass Hero(w/drawings:))

[Yuhppers]

Meet Chroma!

Lore Idea:
Chroma enjoys the arts and fine craftsmanship such as paintings, jewelry, ancient objects, etc. She had always admired the Paradox Organization and their extravagant heists they've pulled off. That ends when she learns they're all rich and bored people, she then no longer wants part in it. Chroma is in loose terms a "Robin Hood" Takes from the rich, gives to the poor, wanting to share her passion. Although she isn't necessarily good, still morally gray in a lot of ways by following her own agenda and wants.

Her personality gives off fake politeness to certain characters. She has a rivalry with paradox, saying things like "So unfortunate you weren't able to claim last nights heist, I will say the jewels on the necklace are exquisite."

Weapon Ideas (she is meant to be more of a support, but subject to change):

Shards of Glass - Chroma's Hand/Forearm makes up shards of glass. She shoots glass from her hand making it a total of 10-12 shots. Her reload is a ripple affect down her arm.

1) Places small stained glass windows throughout map (3-4). This affect is used to tell where enemies are on the map by showing their location if they pass by. Gives a slight stun and small damage. Idea can also be used to prevent farming the jungle a little bit.
2) Sends out a giant wave of glass with some push back mechanic. Helps move aggressive characters away/back or help isolate targeted teammates/yourself
3) Stained glass hovers over teammate and has a light shine down on character. This grants buffs and heals.
4) Two ideas:
1. Global Ult. supports all teammates on the map by buffing and boosting - characters will appear "glass like" similar to metal skin
OR
2. "DIVINE LIGHT" -Similar to Kelvin's dome, but you have a Five Paneled stained glass windows lined in a crescent shape, this acts as a shield that characters can go through. Light shines through the windows and causes damage to opposing team and blindness when hit with light or stays in area. Teammates will gain heals, rapid fire, increased spirit (whatever buffs would be good honestly)
All is subject to change! Just some ideas.

Concept Explanation:
- I love deadlocks fun female designs like paradox and ivy. I know there is a push for "cute" girls so hopefully this meets in the middle of a fun design but still cute.
- Her forehead design is based off of the St. Patricks Cathedral.
- She does give some Bride themes: veil and white underskirt.
- She is a thief so gave her a darker color scheme but kept bright accents bc stained glass is bright! -sometimes
- Young adult, wanted to still have a younger looking design
- Hand is formed by shards of glass
- Scrapped concept explained: didn't want her to look like a nun or ghost like bc of Vindicta. The bottom left dresses gave off bored rich vibes and I wanted her to be a thief because she isn't rich but has a passion for rich people things like the arts. And then I changed her color scheme bc the pink, purple, green wasn't giving me the right vibes. Also originally wanted to name her Prism but didn't want it too close to the name Paradox.

Anyways here she is. Hopefully you enjoyed the concept of her! If there was already a stained glass character out I'm sorry I was unaware.

Reddit Feedback that would be sick:

"When i think glass/ glass themed heroes, i think bleeds, illusions, or reflection

I like the idea of 1. being a trap, it could work where if they get close, it explodes, sending shards out, and they bleed 2. Is nice and simple again, maybe causing a bleed 3. Could be a coat of glass that acts like a bullet reflect, and if the enemy pops it again, shards fly out 4. These ults are decent. Another possibility could be she creates a non controllable clone / illusion that follows her and copies her spells and attacks who she attacks. Just food for thought

Or with the name chroma, you could have something to do with changing colour ( stance swapping ), and it affects her spells differently Red for bleeds Green for healing Blue for slowing"

I had an idea of a girl character who is also a magic mirror, with abilities like reflecting projectiles, turning into a cloud of shards or into a reflection of other hero. I don't think i'll return to these ideas in the future so maybe they can be useful here.

And regarging to the design - i would probably go full on with the glass theme, by making her an artificial creatire kinds like this



if not, her clothes definitely need a rework anyway, considering the setting, visual storytelling and practicality

Here is a redesign of Chroma where she is a little more glass like. Her design here is all glass. The dress is supposed to represent the 1940s Flapper Dress. Its super rough, not very rendered, but hopefully the idea is there.
The big idea is that her scarf/dress-cover symbolizes like "curtains" to windows. Then on her Ult. would show off more of her glass-dress and have like a "glow/shine" effect. Depending on the ult. the animation could vary - if its a clone then like sun shining through stained glass and reflecting on the floor it could give kinda the same idea, she can "shine/glow" creating a double. - or she just shines during her ult then after the scarf thing rewraps afterwards.

If I have time i'll try to render it better, or create playstyle drawings to give a better idea. Thanks for the love/support so far!

Deadlock community is cooking, honestly this should be in the game based off the visual design concept alone. Looks incredible! We're eating good if this gets in. This may be one of my favorite designs to date, very beautiful, unique, and cool looking. Imagine the deadlock cosplay, would actually be nuts

Thank you so much! That means a lot to me!
