Delivers long range skill-shots

A cunning predator, Grey Talon uses a combination of deadly accuracy, traps, and clever positioning to bring down the toughest of opponents.

Grey Talon is a Hero in Deadlock. He is a clever, long-range combatant that uses his powerful bow in combination with traps and mystical flight to pin down and destroy his foes. With the ability to charge his arrow shot for powerful effect, Grey Talon can harry his foes at a distance before launching a guided Spirit Owl to finish them off.

A founder of the monster hunting organisation The Baxter Society, Grey Talon happily retired after 40 years of service to support his extended family. He was living well until he was alerted that that his son and daughter-in-law had died in a mysterious house fire. Now, he hunts the perpetrators of the arson, bow in hand.

Background[edit | edit source]

A founding member of "The Baxter Society", Wesley Grey Talon spent close to 40 years hunting monsters that preyed on man before finally deciding to find a replacement and lay down his bow. Grey Talon’s duties had meant that he never spent much time with his wife and kid, and now that his son had started a family of his own he realized that this was his last chance to reconnect with the people he loved.

Retirement suited Wesley. He made up for lost time with his wife. He doted on his grandkids. He cooked dinner for the whole family every Wednesday. He was happy.

Then he got the call.

The authorities claimed that it was a freak accident... that the fire consumed his son’s house before anyone got a chance to escape. But Wesley knew better. His son’s wife was Ixian... she could snuff out flame with a thought. If their bodies were found burned they had to be dead long before there was a fire.

And so Grey Talon has picked up his bow once more, and when he finds who’s responsible there will be a bloody reckoning.

A FATE'S TALE

Lore[edit | edit source]

Grey Talon believes the Friends of Humanity are behind the murder of his family.[1][2] As such, he sympathizes with Vindicta's cause and regards her as a friend.[3][4]

Grey Talon chose Shiv as his replacement in the Baxter Society.[5][6]

Grey Talon's son was named Nathan.[7]

Character interactions[edit | edit source]

  • Grey Talon says his "stepdaughter" is Ixian, like Abrams.[8] However, it seems that the intended term was "daughter-in-law", as evidenced by Talon's background and Abrams' response.
  • Haze knows Grey Talon. She refers to him by his first name and knew his late son, Nathan.[7]
  • Yamato respects Grey Talon for his age and skill.[9][10]

Gallery[edit | edit source]

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • Grey Talon's current model is inherited from his design in Neon Prime, in which he was called Orion.
  • Grey Talon is voiced by Robbie Daymond, who is known for voiceworks in many popular media (e.g. Kayn in League of Legends, Megumi Fushiguro in Jujutsu Kaisen, River Ward in Cyberpunk 2077, etc.)
  • Gray Talon is currently the only hero whose Bullet Damage is directly affected by Spirit Power.
  • Grey Talon and Seven are currently the only heroes whose Move Speed is directly affected by Spirit Power.
  • Grey Talon has been affectionately nicknamed "Grandma" by the playerbase.
