PocketGive feedback

Pocket is a spiritual and mobile Hero with a powerful shotgun and highly mobile abilities who thrives in close encounters. Channelling his magic briefcase to Barrage groups of enemies with spiritual bursts, Pocket may use his sentient cloak to teleport beside his targets and unload his shotgun; disappearing inside his Enchanter's Satchel to avoid return fire. In larger groups, he can unleash an Affliction to slowly eat away at their health, setting their enemies up for a devastating attack.

Background

“

Arin Fairfax, the eldest heir to Fairfax Industries, has been living in hiding for the past 5 years after being shot and left for dead on their 18th birthday. Arin doesn’t know who is trying to keep them from taking control of their parent’s company... but in the avarice fueled viper’s nest that is Fairfax Industries it could be anyone.
Taking on the name "Pocket", Arin desperately wants to keep their true identity a secret… not only for their own protection; but because they want to forge their own identity separate from their parents.
