“Controls the battle with combat turretsPrecise placement is everything for McGinnis, whether she's creating a killzone or splitting the enemy team. She can help keep her team running making them hard to dislodge when entrenched.
McGinnis is a Hero in Deadlock. She wields a machine gun and her abilities revolve around the usage of structures like turrets and walls, which she can create to support allies and hold down positions to the benefit of her team. If the situation goes awry, she can launch a powerful barrage of rockets at her enemies.
A talented engineer who started her career from a young age, McGinnis isn't fond of theoretical work, thus spending most of her time working in a mechanics shop, often meddling with the supernatural.

Background[edit | edit source]
“Maggie McGinnis always had a knack for building things. At 4 she was using Lincoln Logs to recreate architectural marvels. At 10 she built and rewired a custom light fixture for her parent's anniversary. At 15 she designed a machine that refined the souls of the dead...that last one got a little more attention than the Lincoln Logs. Now the head of Fairfax Industries Military R&D department, McGinnis spends her time in the machine shop, not in a lab. She's not interested in theory, to her science is magic you can touch.— A FATE'S TALE
