'''Sinclair''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. With their trusty magic wand, they can shoot '''[[Sinclair#Vexing Bolt|Vexing Bolt]]s''' to surprise enemies and use magic to turn them into '''[[Sinclair#Rabbit Hex|Rabbit]]s'''. The '''[[Sinclair#Spectral Assistant|Spectral Assistant]]''' amplifies their damage and can serve as a fast escape route. Sinclair can even turn their enemies' abilities against themselves with their surprising final trick, '''[[Sinclair#Audience Participation|Audience Participation]]'''. | |||
Henry and Savannah were two young stage magicians in love, who bound their souls to each other for eternity. However, their relationship was strained after a tragic on-stage accident claimed both of their lives. Now, under the shared title of Sinclair, they seek a way to be separated and find peace in the afterlife. | Henry and Savannah were two young stage magicians in love, who bound their souls to each other for eternity.
