Profile

Copperhead arrives in New Solace wrapped in the shadows of the decaying industrial grid, bringing her lethal reputation and serpentine combat style far from her usual hunting grounds. Unlike the supernatural anomalies, stitched-together abominations, and restless phantoms that typically cross paths with The Revenant, Copperhead is entirely flesh and blood—yet no less lethal.

She relies on an unsettling, gymnast-like physiology, capable of extreme contortion and fluid, unpredictable movement that makes close-quarters engagement exceptionally hazardous. Armed with a highly potent, hallucinogenic neurotoxin delivered through direct physical assault and close-quarters grappling, she turns her targets' own perceptions against them. While she possesses no supernatural durability or conventional superhuman strength, her mastery of stealth, joint manipulation, and psychological warfare allows her to stalk the damp, rusting corridors of New Solace like an apex predator.

"You can run through the rust and the ash all you want, little ghost... but a snake always finds the dark."
