'''Warden''' is a playable hero in ''[[Deadlock]]'', available since the start of the [[Early Development Build]].
'''Warden''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. He is a tough, tenacious brawler with a technique for alchemy and fighting the supernatural. Opening fights with either a Binding Word or a disrupting Alchemical Flask, Warden dashes into the fight to brawl at close range and utilizing his Willpower for protection and staying power. In desperate situations, Warden can trigger his Last Stand, damaging and stealing life from all foes in front of him.
 
A militant alchemist from a long line of the same, Warden is a superstitious member of a family that has trained for the day they would have to stave off a mystic apocalypse. Now with the supernatural all around them, Warden was raised to be a supernatural killing machine dedicated to stopping the [[Patron]]s from ever entering our world.

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.

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.

* Warden's visual design, as well as his name, are heavily inspired from the 'Soldier' character from Team Fortress 2, another valve IP.
* Warden used to be called '''Murphy''' in Neon Prime. This name was reused for the new character of [[Minor characters|Captain Murphy]] in Holliday's [[Visual novels|visual novel]].
* Warden weapon is called "Freedom's Cost".
* Warden's current model uses a modified version of [[Lash|Lash's]] head model. This is referenced in a [[:File:Warden kill bebop 03.mp3|line]] where Warden asks "Do I look like Lash?"
* Warden is currently the only hero whose Bullets per sec is directly affected by Spirit Power.
