Backstory: Professor Ernő Neumann was a brilliant but increasingly unstable Hungarian physicist (emigrated to NY) who became obsessed with capturing the frequencies of the spirit realm. Driven to madness and extreme sleep deprivation, he built a massive experimental cathode-ray television to view the other side. A volatile surge of occult energy pulled his soul directly into the machine. Now, projected as a glowing green apparition permanently wearing the pajamas he died in, his mind is trapped within the television's vacuum tubes. Neumann fights not for glory or power, but out of sheer, exhausted desperation: he seeks the Patron, hoping its god-like occult power can shatter his glass prison and finally let him sleep.
Weapon & Abilities:
- The Specter Revolver: A heavy, vintage dual-barrel revolver. Primary fire shoots precise rounds. Secondary fire discharges a close-range blast of spirit powered energy.
- 1. Cathode Watchers: Deploys modified radio-receiver wards that deal minor spirit damage to the closest enemy (NPCs too) and reveal their CRT outlines through hiding spots and walls. (including haze invisibility, or drifter's blind)
- 2. Frequency Shift: Alters physical states by changing the broadcast channel. The "Aggressive Channel" grants a circular, area-of-effect fire-rate boost. The "Transit Channel" projects a linear path of accelerated movement speed.
- 3. Plasma Bulb: Hurls a crackling vacuum tube that shatters on impact, stunning the target.
- 4. Ultimate: Ray Waves: Emits a massive wave of television static that cleanses all movement debuffs from allies in the area while heavily slowing enemies.
- Match Start: "The Patron holds the remote. I just need it to turn this damn TV off."
- Using 'Frequency Shift': "Changing the channel!"
- Throwing 'Plasma Bulb': "Blown fuse!"
- Getting a Kill: "Your signal is lost."
- Getting a Kill: "Must be nice, getting to close your eyes like that."
- Activating Ultimate (Ray Waves): "RELEASE ME!"
- Activating Ultimate (Ray Waves): "SHUT IT OFF!"
