New Hero Teaser: Cruelty – The Maestro of Agony

Sneak peek at the new hero! These skills are preliminary and may change before release. Official dates will be announced once everything is finalized.

Backstory

Cruelty is Mercy’s third cousin (on his mother's side) and delights in those who are denied death's sweet salvation. With sadistic devotion, he plays his shameful violin until blood spurts from his victims' ears and their minds shatter from the discordant melodies. Anyone who still manages to resist the shrill tones of his torture instrument gets to make acquaintance with his... alternative methods.

At family gatherings, Cruelty loves nothing more than being the center of attention with his performance. And even though Mercy secretly stuffs feathers into her ears beforehand just to survive his dreadful music, she is still happy to be the supportive cousin who cheers him on.
