'''Warden''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. He is a tough, tenacious brawler with endless determination and a technique for alchemy. Opening fights with either a '''[[Warden#Binding Word|Binding Word]]''' or a disrupting '''[[Warden#Alchemical Flask|Alchemical Flask]]''', Warden dashes into the fight to brawl at close range and utilizing his '''[[Warden#Willpower|Willpower]]''' for protection and staying power. In desperate situations, Warden can trigger his '''[[Warden#Last Stand|Last Stand]]''', damaging and stealing life from all foes in front of him.


'''Warden''' is a playable hero in ''[[Deadlock]]'', available since the start of the Early Development Build.
The descendant of a long line of militant alchemists, Warden's ancestors once trained vigorously for the day they would have to stave off a mystic apocalypse. But as time passed, the meaning behind the training was lost, causing Warden's parents to be unprepared for the first [[maelstrom]]. With the apocalypse on the horizon, Warden was trained since birth, forged into a weapon built specifically towards stopping the [[Patron|Patrons]] from ever entering our world, no matter the cost.

Most people think the supernatural came into the world 50 years ago. They’re wrong. Its presence shaped folklore for generations... and as long as there have been people afraid of the shadows, there have been those who dedicated their lives to fighting in them.
=== Ability Changes ===
<!--For fresh data see [[Deadlock:Street Brawl Ability Changes]] -->
In addition to [[Street Brawl#Heroes|global changes]], Warden receives the following modifications to his abilities:


Coming from a lineage of militant alchemists, Warden’s family always trained for the day they would have to stave off a mystic apocalypse... but as time passed the importance of the lessons seemed less and less important. What once was viewed as a sincere warning slowly morphed into being perceived as amusing anecdotes told by their superstitious grandparents.

{{HeroStreetBrawlItems|Warden}}


When the portal opened in Central Park, Warden’s parents realized not only was everything they were told was true, they were unprepared. Refusing to let the next generation fall asleep on the job, Warden was trained since birth to be a supernatural killing machine with one purpose: stopping the Patrons from ever entering our world.}}

* 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.
* 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]</ref> The [[Shopkeep |Shopkeeper]] may ask Warden if he would be interested in selling his cape, despite Warden's current model not having one.<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 also makes 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>
* Warden's backstory shares themes with [https://liquipedia.net/dota2/Arc_Warden Arc Warden] from ''Dota 2,'' who similarly wants to stop the conflict between the Ancients at any cost.
* "Training in the Hideout" is displayed as one's status in the in-game Friends List when playing as Warden in the [[Hideout]].
* Warden appears in a graffiti in the ''Counter-Strike 2'' community map "Warden".<ref>2026-01-22 - u/Parking-Profession-3 in Reddit.com/r/DeadlockTheGame - [https://www.reddit.com/r/DeadlockTheGame/comments/1qjgg90/deadlock_easter_egg_in_new_cs2_map_warden/ Deadlock Easter Egg in new CS2 map “Warden”]</ref>
