Don't worry, Valve: I've got your next Deadlock character concepts sorted
The Cursed Apple is ready for Humpty Dumpty and the Loch Ness Monster's Precocious Preteen Child.
Valve is on the right track with Deadlock, a game that has captured the hearts of gamers with its striking setting, aesthetic, and charming occult character designs. However, there are a few gaps in the roster when it comes to foundational elements of cryptozoology and occult lore. Don't worry, though, because I've got some character concepts up my sleeve that will bring the Cursed Apple's untapped potential to life.
First up is the Summer Mummy, a character introduced in Heathcliff on August 17, 2023. Unlike traditional mummies, the Summer Mummy is chill and fun, wearing floral boardshorts, sunglasses, and eating ice cream. This character will be a cross-promotional opportunity, tapping into the popularity of the Heathcliff brand. Additionally, the minotaur who plays baseball professionally is a fun and mythological addition to the roster.
The Loch Ness Monster's precocious preteen child could also be a hit, given the potential for microtransactions and Scottish accents. Three gnomes in a trench coat could be part of a gnome mafia, and a haunted suit of armor who is a boxer adds to the mix. Lastly, a big spider, either sexy or just a plain old big spider, is a must-have in every video game.
