Despite his appearance, Warden is not a police officer. 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] | 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. | ||
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.

Warden | {{HeroIcon|Abrams}} and the {{PageRef|name=Shopkeeper}} mention Warden wearing a cape, despite his current model not having one.<ref>{{HeroIcon|Abrams}}' in-game [[Abrams/Quotes#Enemies|voice line]] (killed Warden): ''"That cape... kinda freaks me out."''</ref><ref>{{PageRef|name=Shopkeeper}}'s in-game [[Warden/Quotes#Shopkeeper|voice line]] (Warden buys T4 Item): ''"You ever wanna pawn that cape or gun of yours, you let me know."''</ref> The [[Newscaster]] voice line for Warden's [[Seasonal events|Winter]] skin challenge in 2024 also made a reference to his upcoming redesign, asking "What will he look like next?"<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Newscaster|file=Newscaster seasonal warden unlock 01 alt 01.mp3|transcription=Once, Warden was dressed as a cop. Now he's dressed as a cop with a Santa hat. What will he look like next? The New York Oracle digs into this ever-evolving and seemingly unending mystery!}}</ref> | ||
