'''Seven''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. A megalomaniac scientist who substitutes his absence of ethics with a wide array of electric attacks, Seven excels in rapidly taking control of the battlefield by denying areas with [[Seven#Lightning Ball|'''Lightning Balls''']] and [[Seven#Power Surge|'''Surging''']] his gun to punish his foes for staying close together. After putting his enemies in their place with [[Seven#Static Charge|'''Static Charge''']], Seven is free to discharge himself into a [[Seven#Storm Cloud|'''Storm Cloud''']] and fry them alive.
'''Seven''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. He is a powerful mystic who doesn't abide by the rules of lesser men. Utilizing his psychic mastery of electrical currents, Seven excels in rapidly taking control of a fight. Through stuns, roving area denial and unbridled surges in power, he leads enemies right to where he wants them within his ever-growing storm cloud before putting them in their place.


It is unknown what actions led to Seven being imprisoned within [[Lost Whisper]]. However, Seven managed to turn what was meant to be his execution into the bloody murder of his captors. Finally free and waiting within the underbelly of the Cursed Apple, he wishes to reach "apotheosis" by completing [[Maelstrom|the ritual]].

Seven is a Hero in Deadlock. A megalomaniac scientist who substitutes his absence of ethics with a wide array of electric attacks, Seven excels in rapidly taking control of the battlefield by denying areas with Lightning Balls and Surging his gun to punish his foes for staying close together. After putting his enemies in their place with Static Charge, Seven is free to discharge himself into a Storm Cloud and fry them alive.

It is unknown what actions led to Seven being imprisoned within Lost Whisper. However, Seven managed to turn what was meant to be his execution into the bloody murder of his captors. Finally free and waiting within the underbelly of the Cursed Apple, he wishes to reach "apotheosis" by completing the ritual.

Backstory

[edit | edit source]

See Seven/Lore for more story content.

“
When mystic energy awoke on Earth, the world changed... anything was possible. But just because anything WAS possible, didn’t mean that anything SHOULD be possible. And so the government made rules. Laws. A means for US citizens to enjoy the benefits of the supernatural world in safety. But rules and laws are for lesser men. Men with limitations. Men who were not Seven.

There are many rumors about what Seven did to land himself in Lost Whisper, an oubliette for the most dangerous of occultists. But there is no doubt about what happened on the night of his execution.

Wards placed by the most powerful ritualists of 7 different nations… wards designed to not just prevent mystical interference with the execution, but to simultaneously obliterate Seven's soul so that it could never be contacted, resurrected, or otherwise be used by someone looking to follow in his footsteps... failed.

Onlookers viewed in horror as the strongest mentalist employed by the US Army’s head popped like a grape. They screamed as Scotland Yard’s premiere occult investigator, the one who allegedly captured Seven, crumbled to ash. Seven's body buckled and writhed against his restraints; his skin burning from eldritch electricity... and yet he would not die. He laughed.

He laughed as he tore himself free from his bondage.

He laughed as his captors cowered in fear.

He laughed as he massacred his tormentors.

He laughed as he tasted the fresh air that was denied to him for years.

And he laughed when he thought about what he was going to do once he reached New York City.

Trivia

[edit | edit source]
  • Seven was named Gigawatt in Neon Prime.
  • Seven's chestplate has numbers that form a Gorowase, a form of Japanese wordplay with numbers. 4279 can be read as Shi (4) Ni (2) Na (7) Ku (9) = Shininaku (死になく), or "Become unkillable" (rough translation).
  • Seven's name may be a reference to Numerology, in which the number 7 is associated with spirituality and the search for knowledge.[2]
  • Seven was the only hero with a limping animation which played when he was low on health. This has since been removed.
  • "Plotting in the Hideout" is displayed as one's status in the in-game Friends List when playing as Seven in the Hideout.
  • Seven's character select line "With these hands I will destroy, and with these hands I will rebuild" is a quote from the song The Good Doctor by The Protomen.
