Dessa Banks
Overview
Dessa Banks is the team's necromedic — a support powerhouse who can sedate groups of enemies, fire bouncing spectral skulls, resurrect fallen characters, and banish enemies through Death's Door portals. She controls the battlefield through debuffs and creative ability combos.
Background
Former surgeon and necro medic who quit after murdering a mafia enforcer.
Playstyle
Use Sedative Cocktail to lock down groups of enemies, making them unsteady so knockback is more effective. Spectral Skull (Gary) bounces off walls for creative angle shots. Death's Door removes enemies entirely from combat, and Resurrect can revive allies — or enemies who then attack everyone.
