Name: Lucky “Ace” LaChance
Role: Damage
Backstory:
Lucky LaChance was once a renowned gambler and former casino owner from Monaco. Known for his incredible luck and calculated risks, he earned the nickname “Ace” after never losing a hand of cards in his prime. However, after his casino empire was brought down by corporate espionage, he turned to the world of mercenaries, using his gambling prowess in battle to outwit his enemies. Lucky’s approach to combat is all about unpredictability, pushing his luck to gain the upper hand.
Appearance:
• Outfit: A sleek, stylish suit with hints of futuristic armor. His coat tails are lined with glowing holographic cards. His design would mix high-roller casino aesthetics with cutting-edge tech.
• Accessories: A deck of energy cards he wields, which he throws in combat. He has a slot machine-themed arm with digital displays that trigger random effects during his abilities.
Abilities:
1. Primary Fire: Card Shuriken
Lucky throws sharp, holographic playing cards at enemies. These cards are fast but deal moderate damage, with the chance for a critical hit with each card (higher than the normal crit chance).
2. Secondary Fire: Loaded Dice
Lucky tosses an explosive set of dice at enemies. When the dice explode, they deal area damage. Depending on the number shown on the dice, the damage can be either lower or much higher, making it a gamble each time.
3. Ability 1: Luck of the Draw
Lucky activates a random card from his deck, which grants him one of several possible buffs for 10 seconds. Buffs may include increased movement speed, damage resistance, faster reload speed, or extra damage. The random nature of the card adds unpredictability to his kit.
4. Ability 2: High Stakes
Lucky marks a single enemy with a “high stakes” symbol for 7 seconds. During this time, both Lucky and the marked enemy deal double damage to each other. The mark makes it a gamble for both, either ending in a quick victory or a swift defeat.
5. Ultimate: Jackpot
Lucky activates a jackpot slot machine that spins above his head. After a few seconds, the machine stops and releases one of several possible powerful effects based on the combination. Possible outcomes include a massive AOE damage burst, a large healing pulse for allies, a team-wide damage buff, or an instant reset for his cooldowns. The ultimate is a high-risk, high-reward move that can turn the tide of battle in unexpected ways.
Personality:
Lucky is smooth, suave, and confident, with an air of danger that comes from always living on the edge. He makes witty remarks during combat, often referencing card games and gambling terminology. His voice lines reflect his love of risk and the thrill of the game, with quips like “Time to cash in” or “Feeling lucky?”
Playstyle:
Lucky is best suited for players who enjoy an element of risk in their gameplay. His abilities can be incredibly powerful, but their random nature requires him to adapt quickly to changing situations. He’s perfect for aggressive, unpredictable playstyles where luck can make the difference between victory and defeat.
