Hanging out in the world of the game the past few days spawned this idea for a support/dps based around the games old New York alley theme.
I envisioned this characters backstory to fit in with a dockworker from the 1920s/1930s era. Classic clothes, rolled up sleeves, flat cap hat.
Here's a little backstory...
On what would be a normal night offloading cargo from a mysterious ship the character would happen across a hazardous package containing a supernatural 'light-virus' that escapes its container and infects the man. The veins in his hands and forearms would become illuminated with pure holy magic. This pairing between this man and the virus would prove to be symbiotic as the man is a naturally gifted guardian while virus compels its host to seek out and cure violence and evil with its holy energies.
Weapon
Lever action rifle - your 'light-virus' also infects this weapon, giving its handle and barrel a radiant glow.
Abilities
Bless
Heal your allies in a short cone in front of you while also granting a temporary stacking spirit shield buff equal to a % of your current health.
Intervention
Pull yourself to an ally healing them for a portion of their missing health while also disarming enemies in a radius around the target for 3s.
Sanctified Armament
Healing allies and gathering souls gradually charge your rifle with holy magic granting additional spirit damage on your bullets that increase with power as your charge meter increases. At 100% power your next shot is transformed into a brilliant orb of light that deals the maximum additional spirit damage in an area of effect while also mini-stunning them. This special shot resets your charge meter.
Ultimate: Icon
Burst open with radiant light inspiring your allies with increased fire rate, movement speed, and bullet life steal in a radius around you. While Icon is active, Sanctified Armament continuously charges at an increased rate. Lasts 10 seconds.
