“
Haze is a stealthy assassin Hero who eliminates solitary enemies swiftly. By fixating on single targets, she can use multiple tools and a pair of fast-firing SMGs to send them to a final rest. As a "Sandman" with the OSIC, Haze can infiltrate the dreams of her targets to scrutinize their motivations, though her motives around the Ritual are still unknown.
She works as a secret agent in the Sandman Division of OSIC, fighting as a devastating assassin character who excels in Fixating on foes that are out of position and swiftly ending them. Her Smoke Bomb lets her sneak up on enemies before knocking them out with a Sleep Dagger and unleashing a hail of gunfire at close range. In desperate situations, Haze can enter her Bullet Dance to avoid return fire while dispatching her remaining targets.

Backstory
[edit | edit source]See Haze/Lore for more story content.
“The Occult Security and Investigation Commission is a black box government organization that makes the CIA look transparent. It falls on the men, women, and entities of the OSIC to keep the country safe from sinister forces that are beyond the capabilities of local law enforcement.
As a member of the notorious Sandman Division, Haze is routinely tasked with infiltrating the dreams of persons of interest, to assess their threat level, and if needed... to put them to sleep.
