| '''Kelvin''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. He is a dedicated, undead scientist with a bevy of freezing abilities to slow his enemies and heal allies. He can conjure an Ice Path under his feet for faster movement for himself and his team, throwing Frost Grenades and firing his Arctic Beam at nearby enemies to set them up for his companions' attacks. Tactical usage of his Frozen Shelter ice dome can protect and heal allies while trapping hapless opponents.
| |
| | |
| As an adventuring scientist, Kelvin was particularly excited for rumours of an 8th [[Astral Gates|Astral Gate]] opening in the Arctic, developing an expedition to hunt for it. However, something went wrong with the expedition, vanishing into the snow and leaving Kelvin's frozen, animate body to be discovered over a year later.

| |
| | |
| A famed adventuring scientist, Kelvin made it his life’s mission to explore and understand the unknowable. So naturally when rumors surfaced regarding an 8th astral gate hidden in the arctic, Kelvin couldn’t build an expedition team fast enough. Assembling the brightest minds of his generation, Kelvin and his team set forth with much fanfare.
| |
| | |
| They never returned.
| |
| | |
| A year and a half later the frozen body of Kelvin was found by a fishing trawler, his corpse clutching a rock etched with glowing runes. The crew chipped away at the ice, looking to get a closer look at the body and were shocked when Kelvin opened his eyes. They checked his vitals… there was no pulse. They sought to bandage his open wounds… there was no blood. And yet, impossibly, Kelvin was "alive".
| |
| | |
| Having no memory of what happened on the expedition, Kelvin is looking for answers.

| | |
| *Other heroes such as [[McGinnis]] and [[Dynamo]] will sometimes call him "Kevin" instead of Kelvin.<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=McGinnis|file=Mcginnis kill kelvin 01.mp3|transcription=Took out Kevin- Kelvin. His name's Kelvin.

| * [[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>[[Kelvin/Quotes#Conversations|Seven and Kelvin conversation]] - Kelvin: "''Why do you hate me so much?"''

| ** A likely possibility is that Seven is Kelvin's old friend Edrick, who "vanished".<ref>[[Kelvin/Quotes#Conversations|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>[[Kelvin/Quotes#Conversations|Seven and Kelvin conversation]] - Kelvin: ''"Heh, I thought you hated me."'' Seven: ''"I do. But if anyone is going to kill you, it's going to be me."''</ref><ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Kelvin|file=Kelvin revenge kill.mp3|context=(revenge kill)|transcription=If someone's going to kill me, it's going to be Edrick, not you.}}</ref>

| * Seven believes Kelvin has a bigger ego than [[Lash]].<ref>{{VoiceLineCite|name=Seven|file=Gigawatt kill lash 01.mp3|context=(killed Lash)|transcription=His ego is almost as big as Kelvin's.}}</ref>
| |
| * [[Lady Geist]] funded Kelvin's Arctic expedition.<ref>[[Kelvin/Quotes#Conversations|Kelvin and Lady Geist conversation]] - Kelvin: ''"I never got to say thank you for your patronage, Lady Geist." (...) "I'm serious! Obviously the expedition didn't go as planned, but we wouldn't have had the opportunity were it not for your funding."''</ref>
