Chat King.
The Rat King, a tank class in the gaming world, has become a new hero in the game Deadlock with over 100 voice lines dedicated to throwing rats at enemies. Rat King is a giant humanoid rodent who was originally a fan concept before becoming a part of Deadlock's official roster. The character is known for his love of rats and his ability to unleash a swarm of rodents from beneath his cape, dealing spirit damage to enemies over time.
This ability, called Rat Swarm, has 126 voice lines dedicated to it, with many referencing individual rats by name. Rat King also has numerous group-based callouts, suggesting there are entire factions residing beneath his cloak. The character's talkative nature is part of the huge injection of personality brought by the City Never Sleeps update, which also doubled the number of voice lines for all existing characters in the game.
This attention to detail and color has made Deadlock popular despite players needing to be invited to play.
