'''Vindicta''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. She is a mobile and powerful marksman, engaging and picking off her targets from a distance. Using her '''[[Vindicta#Crow Familiar|Crow Familiar]]''' to initiate fights by bleeding her targets, Vindicta may launch into '''[[Vindicta#Flight|Flight]]''' to keep her distance from enemies and tether them with a '''[[Vindicta#Stake|Stake]]''' in the ground while targeting them with her powerful rifle. Enemies that are near-death should fear her ability to '''[[Vindicta#Assassinate|Assassinate]]''' at long-range with a devastating sniper shot.

A girl who was accused of witchcraft and killed by [[John Hathorne]] during the [[wikipedia:Salem_witch_trials|Salem Witch Trials]] of the 1600s, Vindicta returned to this world during the first [[Maelstrom]]. Seeking to protect her fellow supernatural entities, Vindicta is waging a war against the Neo-inquisitorial "[[Friends of Humanity]]".

* Assassinate is a hitscan ability. It will hit a player instantly regardless of distance.
* Vindicta will remain scoped after firing an Assassinate shot regardless if she has a remaining charge or not.
* Vindicta can use the Crow Familiar and Stake while scoped in without scoping out. Using flight will scope her out however.
* The damage scales up from 50% to 100% after one second of being scoped.
* If a target dies within 4 seconds after being hit with Assassinate, Vindicta will still get the bonus weapon damage stack.
* T3 Assassinate upgrade grants bonus weapon damage retroactively. (adds +4% Weapon Damage per individual stack already acquired upon upgrading.)
* Each use of a charge counts as a separate ultimate cast for {{ItemIcon|Lightning Scroll}}'s "once per target per ultimate" restriction. Hitting a target multiple times will apply multiple delayed stuns.
* Assassinate isn't affected by [[Disarm]].

A victim of John Hawthorne during the Salem Witch Trials, Vindicta got a second chance of life when her spirit was brought back to the mortal plane during the first Maelstrom (the event that introduced the supernatural to the public at large).
