Hermes / delivery guy
I saw couple of these with idea of the type of character which were great that inspired me to try my own hopefully one of them gets made
Lore – Peter and Hermes
Peter works part-time for a delivery service. Because of maelstrom, his soul becomes intertwined with Hermes
Similar to Sinclair, Peter and Hermes can communicate with each other internally. Peter is a bit of a wimpy kinda guy, while Hermes is energetic, impulsive, and constantly pushing him to participate in the ritual. Their dynamic is like a little brother and big brother relationship.
At some point, Peter and Hermes retrieve the Caduceus (scepter) and the winged sandals from the Paradox Museum, giving Peter some of his power
He could have unique dialogue interactions with:
• Sinclair
• Paige
• Paradox
Hermes would probably tease paradox about it a lot
Weapon – Hermes’ Scepter
A single-fire weapon, similar in feel to Adam Warlock from Marvel Rivals
Passive divine momentum
As Peter keeps moving, he builds up speed and slightly increases his weapon damage.
• The longer he moves without stopping, the faster he becomes.
• At higher momentum, he can briefly glide thanks to Hermes’ sandals.
• stoping resets the meter.
Ability 1 Accelerated Shot
Fires a charged shot from the scepter.
Damage increases based on current movement speed.
If stamina was recently spent the damage is further amplified. As well as if dropping for the zip with momentum
Ability 2 Special Delivery
Throws three envelopes in a wide arc.
On the way out: light damage.
On the way back: if they hit enemies, Peter gains faster stamina regeneration.
Ability 3 Courier’s Cache
Peter drops a buff from his delivery bag.
like the buffs found around the map (from boxes or golden statues).
This allows him to
Support himself or help teammates
Ultimate – Express Shipment
Peter charges toward a single enemy with his bag wide open. If successful, he traps the enemy inside the bag. He then throws them in a chosen direction.
• The targeting indicator is narrow (similar to Lash’s style but designed for one enemy only).
• He can be crowd-controlled during the cast time.
• If Peter has high momentum from his passive, the cast time becomes faster.
Cool idea: If you get caught in the ultimate, you briefly see a first-person view from inside the bag, looking outside before being thrown.
I hope you like my idea and thanks for the guys who already made similar ideas for the inspiration I really hope one them or similar gets added to the game
Any feedback or more ideas are welcome
