maybe there's a high-tech guy with a walkman and all kinds of 'old/retro' deadlock tech

An insect themed hero would be cool, especially one disguised as a human.

Marco-based hero
Who?

Mahjong might make more sense, Wraith is already themed around cards.

plague doctor
Pretty sure there are already a few concepts for this.

super meat boy
Being able to slide up walls would be interesting.

a guy who is half soul, half dead

I think these ones are just Sinclair.

Prop hunt? Turn into a trooper? Sounds fun.

jewish banker hero (not trying/being racist just looking up stereotypical NYC characters)
The Discord wouldn't be able to handle it.

Seen a few concepts for a hero that knocks around a ball as an attack, including my golfer hero. I think it could be really fun if they got the physics to feel right.

Isn't this just Yamato?

We gotta get some painter / artist hero at some point.

A weapon that increases in bullet velocity the longer you charge sounds interesting.

Warden?

An Italian plumber 🤔 🤔
Unironically, I feel like there aren't enough ordinary hard working New Yorkers for a game set in New York. That's what made Trapper so endearing.

I think personally some of these have some potential, but I'd really like to see a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. or Splinter Cell kind of character who has some extra perception similar to Drifter, but he can do things like climb on walls for extended periods of time. I think Dota expanded for the better with Treant, Monkey and Hoodwink so I think alternate traversal is a neat way of doing things. Currently loving the Rem tunnels.
