=== Appearance ===
Warden is a strong white man with a brown moustache, wearing a uniform very similar to an early 20th century [[wikipedia:Law_enforcement_in_the_United_Kingdom|British policeman]] or "bobby". He carries a severed glowing blue hand in a cage on the back of his belt. The helmet covers his eyes. His weapon is a large two-handed gun.
Warden is a burly white man with a brown moustache, wearing a blue uniform with golden accents very similar to an early 20th century [[wikipedia:Law_enforcement_in_the_United_Kingdom|British policeman]] or "bobby". The helmet covers his eyes. He carries in his belt keys, a baton, and a severed glowing blue hand in a cage. His weapon is a large two-handed gun.


Despite his appearance, Warden is not a police officer. His current model matches the ''Deadlock'' art style (instead of ''[[Neon Prime]]''), so it was presumably made for an earlier version of his backstory. A concept sketch for Warden's upcoming redesign can be seen in one of [[Yamato|Yamato's]] concept artwork released by [[Yoshi]].<ref>2024-08-11 - [[Yoshi]], Deadlock Discord - ''"[That sketch is] one of a few experimental concepts for warden."''[https://discord.com/channels/1231286446472691825/1231286447131328544/1272231665275768862]</ref>

Warden was named '''Murphy''' in [[Neon Prime|''Neon Prime'']]. This name was reused for the new character of [[Minor characters|Captain Murphy]] in [[Holliday]]'s [[Visual novels|visual novel]]. He may have been named after the protagonist of the 1987 movie ''[[wikipedia:RoboCop|Robocop]],'' as Murphy was a robot peacekeeper in ''Neon Prime's'' sci-fi setting.

Murphy remained as Warden's character for a short duration in the shift from Neon Prime to Deadlock. There, Murphy was a vigilante police officer stationed in New York.<ref>{{HeroIcon|Lady Geist}}'s removed [[Lady Geist/Quotes#Removed/Unused Voice Lines|voice line]] (killed Murphy): ''"This is what passes for vigilante justice in New York?
