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

The eldest heir to Fairfax Industries, Arin "Pocket" Fairfax has been in hiding for over 5 years after a failed assassination attempt. Fearing for their life and wishing to chart their own path, the newly nicknamed Pocket has been keeping their original identity secret while investigating who had tried to kill them.

Background

See Pocket/Lore for more story content.

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.

Lore

Pocket likely has at least one younger sibling, as their background calls them the "eldest heir" to Fairfax Industries.

In The Binding of Oathkeeper, Pocket's father, Maximilian, asks Geist where Pocket is.[1] Pocket believes Maximilian was behind their attempted assassination,[2] and wants to keep their magic suitcase away from him.[3] Pocket also does not trust their mother.[4]

Pocket's left arm, which is holding the suitcase, seems to have decayed skin tissue and glows with their suitcase. They have an eye tattoo in the back of their left hand.

Character interactions

  • Despite Pocket's desire to hide their true identity, the other characters seem to be aware of their background and refer to them as an "upstart",[5] a "trust fund baby"[6] and a "spoiled brat".[7]
  • Calico was the assassin hired to kill Pocket, who survived because the bullet missed their heart.[8] Calico says she's "tying up loose ends" when she kills Pocket.[9][10]
  • Dynamo is Pocket's godfather. He recognizes Pocket and says he would have helped them if he knew they were alive.[11]
  • Lady Geist thinks Pocket seems familiar, but mistakes them for a street urchin. She thinks Pocket's jacket is stolen.[11]
  • Mo & Krill protected Pocket and regard them well.[12][13]

Trivia

  • Pocket was named Synth in Neon Prime. They were later renamed to Fairfax.
  • Pocket is voiced by Greg Chun, who also voices Shiv.[14]
  • Pocket has the highest light melee damage in the game.
