'''Ivy''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. She is a gargoyle-turned-vigilante with potent supportive and disruptive abilities to assist her allies in combat. After linking up with an ally to share healing and buffs, she can summon patches of snarling vines from her Kudzu bomb and transform into a stony gargoyle to damage and stun the enemy while healing herself. With her abilities of flight, she can pick up any ally or bomb and fly them to any point on the battlefield, choosing to either explosively Air Drop them into the middle of the enemy battle group, or rescue an ally from danger.

Ivy's former life as an inanimate gargoyle ended abruptly when she was summoned to life to protect a girl and her family from [[The Mendoza Syndicate]]. Vowing to protect her new family, The Arroyo's, Ivy began a vigilante mission to dismantle the Syndicate. After 18 years of work, she succeeded at defeating the organization, and now searches outside Spanish Harlem to find a new goal to dedicate her life to.

* All health gained from any source is replicated, after applying modifiers
* The only exception to this is the healing provided by Watcher's Covenant itself, which is never replicated. This includes its bullet lifesteal effect
* If a hero is at max health, any health they would receive is still replicated
* Shared health is treated as having no source player, meaning it is not increased by Healing Booster or other healing buffs

Air Drop currently has a bug that does not give the picked up ally any shields, and also sets their existing bullet shield to 0. Ivy's bullet shield also gets set to 0 when dropping the ally, but gets filled again once the ultimate is finished. <ref>[[https://forums.playdeadlock.com/threads/ivy-ultimate-gives-ally-empty-bullet-shield-and-also-temporarily-empties-ivys-bullet-shield.52976/|ivy ultimate gives ally empty bullet shield (and also temporarily empties ivy's bullet shield?)]] on the Deadlock Forums</ref>
