Manipulates Space and Time

Manipulating time lets Paradox outpace an enemy in one on one combat. She thrives by subjecting her enemies to timely swaps into a waiting pulse grenade, her wall, or into the middle of her teammates.


Paradox is a time-manipulating Hero with potent disruption and slowing abilities. With a charged Kinetic Carbine, she can threaten her enemies at any range while damaging and slowing them with thrown Pulse Grenades and well-placed Time Walls. At just the right moment, Paradox can activate her Paradoxical Swap to change places with her target, dropping them into a dangerous situation amongst her team.

Paradox is both the name of this Hero and the name of their Thieves' Guild, specializing in stealing the untouchable and breaking into ultra-secure facilities. Their motives are unclear, except for a certain level of delight that its members seem to take in snubbing the world's biggest corporations and governments.

Background edit

Paradox. An artifact of time, and the name of a notorious thieves’ guild... one that prides themselves on constructing elaborate heists that target the most untouchable of individuals and institutions. What does Paradox do with the countless artifacts, state secrets, and celebrity paternity tests that they have stolen? Put it on display at pop-up museums, so that they can show the world that no one is out of Paradox’s reach.

Shrouded in mystery, each member of Paradox dons a mask and takes on the organization’s name. They are everywhere. They are nowhere. And if they want something, they are inevitable.
