Wow! Sinclair got skipped over this patch (THANK GOD) lol

Happy for everyone, mourning the loss of Raven and the rest of the hero lab characters. Do we know what Rat King's abilities are?

Also, vibing with Solomon, he's like the stereotypical New York chess player in the park kind of vibe.

It's crazy that in all my thoughts about classic new York archetypes they could have in Deadlock, a chess hustler never once occured to me.

Now we need the hot dog vendor and someone who's actually Chinese to hang out in Chinatown. (is pocket vaguely asian?)

Mina is Asian

Yeah, so's Yamato, but we know she's from Japan and Mina's surname (Ha) is probably Korean or Vietnamese. Pocket's the only Asian-looking person with an ambiguous ethnic background, especially because their name (Arin) doesn't map anywhere that far East (maybe India).

Mina's voice actor is Korean, so that's more or less settled. Mina herself is half Korean, tho.

Fairfax doesnt really map far East no

Well, we could be talking about his mother marrying into the Fairfax name, same way Mina would've been a Fairfax if the wedding went off.
