Subject Profile
Subject insists on conducting all interviews in darkness, speaks primarily in sighs, and has described his combat style as "an expression of the void within." Shadow Stalk -- his passive that buffs his first three attacks from stealth -- is not, according to Panther, a combat mechanic. It is "a metaphor for how the truest strikes come from places nobody looks." He maintains a blog (unread) titled "Whispers from the Umbral Threshold" and has been writing the same poem for six months. It currently has four words: "darkness, darkness, more darkness." Ranked #12. He expected nothing else.

"Nobody understands Panther. Panther also doesn't understand Panther, but believes this is the point. His entire combat philosophy is built on the premise that shadows are the only honest thing in the arena. Fade doesn't just reset his stealth counter -- it returns him to 'the only place that ever felt real.' His therapist has requested hazard pay."

They don't see me. They never see me.
That's the point. That's always been
the point.
I strike from the darkness because the
darkness is all I have. Three hits. 35%
bonus. Then the light comes back and
everything is worse.
Fade. Return to shadow. It's not an
ability. It's a lifestyle.
You wouldn't understand.
Nobody does.
...I'm ranked 12th. It's fine. Rankings
are a construct of the light.
