'''Seven''' is [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. He is a powerful and brutal mystic with control over electricity and lightnings. Starting engagements by stunning a foe with Static Charge, Seven activates a chain lightning Power Surge on his burst-fire rifle and unleashes a Lightning Ball to shock down his opponent quickly. Channeling the spirit of the storm, Seven can begin or end encounters by unleashing his Storm Cloud to electrocute all enemies within range that are not quick enough to escape.
 
It is not stated what actions lead to Seven being sent prisoner to [[Lost Whisper]], yet at the day of his execution Seven managed to escape, obliterating everyone who kept him in captivity for years in the process. Finally free, Seven's singular goal is to participate in [[Maelstrom|the ritual]] and reach apotheosis. And he will not stop before anything, or anyone who would stand in the way.

'''A FATE'S TALE:'''


When mystic energy awoke on Earth, the world changed… anything was possible. But just because anything WAS possible, didn't mean that anything SHOULD be possible. And so the government made rules. Laws. A means for US citizens to enjoy the benefits of the supernatural world in safety. But rules and laws are for lesser men. Men with limitations. Men who were not Seven.
There are many rumors about what Seven did to land himself in [[Lost Whisper]], an oubliette for the most dangerous of occultists. But there is no doubt about what happened on the night of his execution.

And he laughed when he thought about what he was going to do once he reached New York City.}}Seven has an intense grudge against [[Kelvin]] and it is implied they were formerly colleagues. Several voice lines imply Seven could be Kelvin's old colleague ''Edrick''. Humorously, [[Kelvin]] has very little idea to the identity or motives of Seven, which is speculated to be a symptom of Kelvin's amnesia of a disastrous expedition to an arctic astral gate. Consider the following dialogue:
And he laughed when he thought about what he was going to do once he reached [[The Cursed Apple|New York City]].

*Seven has a one-sided rivalry with [[Kelvin]] for unknown reasons.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Seven|file=Gigawatt_kill_kelvin_05.mp3|context=(killed Kelvin)|transcription=It was always going to come down to you and me, Kelvin.}}</ref><ref>[[Seven/Quotes#Conversations|Seven and Kelvin conversation]] - Kelvin: "''Why do you hate me so much?"''

** A lik<nowiki/>ely possibility is that Seven is Kelvin's old friend Edrick, who "vanished".<ref>Kelvin and Lady Geist conversation - Kelvin: ''"Edrick." (...) "I don't know. I tried to find him when I returned to New York, but... it's like he's vanished."''</ref> This is supported by one of Seven's lines to Kelvin that mirrors one of Kelvin's lines about Edrick.<ref>[[Seven/Quotes#Conversations|Seven and Kelvin conversation]] - Kelvin: ''"Heh, I thought you hated me."''

* Seven<nowiki/> has a strong conviction that exceptional magic users should use their powers, regardless of how others might judge them for it. He criticizes [[Dynamo]] for wanting to "throw away" the "great gift" of his star body, teases [[Infernus]] for "putting on a muzzle" and "wasting" his powers, and says [[McGinnis]] is "wasting her brilliance" working for [[Fairfax Industries]]. He respects [[Ivy]] for "seeing the world as it was and deciding it was not acceptable to her".<ref name=":2" />
