{{HeroTabs}}
'''The Amber Hand''' is a [[Teams|Team]], as well as the nickname of their [[Patron]], also known as the '''Amber Patron'''. [[The Sapphire Flame]] is their rival.
[[File:Hidden King model.png|thumb|The Hidden King|327x327px]]
{{Quotation|[https://www.playdeadlock.com/oldgods| Old Gods, New Blood Update]|The stretching shadow of a skyscraper... a boarded-up apartment in Hell’s Kitchen... The Hidden King exists in the cracks of the city, waiting for his followers to usher him into the light.|}}
The '''Hidden King''' is a [[Patron]], as well as the name of his team. His followers are '''The Hidden King's Court'''. {{PageRef|The Archmother}} is his rival.


The Amber Patron has a masculine voice and is characterized by the color yellow. Amber Hand's side of the [[map]] has red brick buildings and is labeled "Downtown".
== Overview ==
The Hidden King appears as a shadowy figure with antlers and glowing yellow eyes, bound to a burning [[wikipedia:Wicker_man|wicker man]] effigy. Long, claw-like yellow hands extend from the shadows. His base is a factory filled with large speakers and microphones, and his side of the [[map]] features working-class red brick buildings labeled "Downtown".


The Amber Patron referred to itself as '''Anvil's Song''' in a removed voice line (see below). This is referenced in a [[Warden]] unselect line.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Warden|file=Warden_unselect_07.mp3|transcription=I won't be Anvil's Song's cat's paw.}}</ref>
The Hidden King does not speak to the [[heroes]] directly. Instead, a herald speaks on his behalf.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Hidden King|quotes=The Hidden King/Quotes|context=(Unused tutorial line)|transcription=I speak for the Hidden King, and today I shall be your guide.}}</ref><ref name=":0">{{PageRef|name=Hidden King}}'s in-game [[McGinnis/Quotes#Patrons|voice line]] (McGinnis start): ''"The Hidden King is honored by your presence, McGinnis. May your inventions pave the way for his return to us.''</ref><ref>{{PageRef|name=Hidden King}}'s in-game [[Haze/Quotes#Patrons|voice line]] (Haze start): ''"You are driven by duty, Haze. I know you won't fail the Hidden King."''</ref>


== Voice Lines ==
Akin to the Archmother, the Hidden King's goals are unknown. According to {{PageRef|name=The Doorman}}, the Hidden King has wanted to be summoned for "centuries".<ref>{{PageRef|name=The Doorman}}'s in-game [[The Doorman/Quotes#Hotel Guest Taunt - Generic|voice line]] (Hotel Guest taunt): ''"The Patrons have waited centuries to be summoned, they can wait a little longer."''</ref> {{PageRef|name=Warden}} and his family believe the Patrons will "herald the end of humanity" if left unchecked.<ref>{{PageRef|name=Warden}}'s in-game [[Warden/Quotes#Select|voice line]] (select): ''"The Patrons will herald the end of humanity if we let them."''</ref> It's implied that the Hidden King wants to "usher in his new era".<ref>{{PageRef|name=Hidden King}}'s in-game [[Graves/Quotes#Patrons|voice line]] (ally Graves killstreak): ''"Graves will usher us into the Hidden King's new era!"''</ref><ref>{{PageRef|name=Hidden King}}'s in-game [[Victor/Quotes#Patrons|voice line]] (Victor start): ''"You need not feel adrift in this world, Victor. Complete the ritual, and find your place alongside the Hidden King!"''</ref>

== Trivia ==
|-
* The Hidden King's name and appearance have similarities to [[wikipedia:The_King_in_Yellow|The King in Yellow]], a fictional supernatural entity created by [[wikipedia:Robert_W._Chambers|Robert W. Chambers]].
| rowspan="3" |{{PageRef|Bebop}}
* The Hidden King was originally named '''The Amber Hand''' prior to the [[Old Gods, New Blood]] update. He also referred to himself as '''Anvil's Song''' in a removed voice line. This is referenced in a [[Warden]] unselect line.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Warden|file=Warden_unselect_07.mp3|context=(unselect)|transcription=I won't be Anvil's Song's cat's paw.}}</ref>
|Bespoke For
** A proposed rename to the Hidden King was '''The Broken Crown'''.
|
* The Hidden King announcer's voice actor was recast with the new model in the [[Old Gods, New Blood]] update. The current voice is speculated to be either Clancy Brown (Mr. Krabs in ''Spongebob Squarepants'') or Darin De Paul (Reinhardt in ''Overwatch''). Developer [[Kaori (developer)|Kaori]] has so far chosen not to reveal the name of either the current or previous voice actor to not "spoil the fun".<ref>2026-01-26 - ''@nookem'' and [[Kaori (developer)|Kaori]]; Deadlock Discord - nookem: ''"kaori before you go can you answer if The Hidden King is darin de paul?"'' Kaori: ''"i mean i could, but why spoil the fun?"''</ref> They have also said that the previous Amber Hand actor can still be heard in the game in a different role.<ref>2026-01-23 - [[Kaori (developer)|Kaori]]; Deadlock Discord - ''"The actor who played the voice of the OG amber hand is still heard in the game"''</ref>
