Deathstroke

**Slade Wilson**, also known as **Deathstroke**, is a mercenary and assassin. Of former military status, subject of a failed medical experiment, he has since taken up work as a mercenary, armed with multiple weapons, and considered expert with edged weapons, firearms and explosives. Distinguishing characteristics include an impaired right eye, graying hair, and orange accented black body armor. His augmentations, coupled with his mastery of hand-to-hand combat make him a formidable opponent.

Wilson was an accomplished member of the special forces. This distinction earned him admittance into a covert program where he was subjected to extensive mental and physical augmentation. The procedures left him with increased mental function, as well as enhanced speed, strength, and stamina.

Following his military service, Wilson worked for various private military contractors before striking out on his own – and allegedly becoming one of the highest paid contract killers in the world, specializing in high profile assassinations. His unique weapons and abilities include regenerating health and super strength, a rifle-staff with a built-in grapple, a sword, explosives, firearms, and his own version of "Detective Vision", called "Tactical Vision".

After he worked on assassination, he made an alliance with the Arkham Knight and Scarecrow to turn Gotham into a city of fear.

Deathstroke is one of the recurring antagonists of the World Protection Security Agency stories.

## Appearance

### Batman Arkham Origins

In Arkham Origins, Slade's suit featured the classic orange/blue colors, but it was armored. Half of Slade's helmet was covered, and the other half revealed his eye. That was because he got shot in the eye and was forced to wear an eye patch. Slade wore multiple packs on the top of his suit to store bullets, darts, and other things. When his helmet was knocked off, Slade's features had gray hair, and gray facial hair.

### Batman Arkham City: Lockdown

Slade had a more classic look, with the iconic orange and light blue. Instead of having armor, he had a spandex-type suit, with boots. That suit looked similar to the Judas Contract Skin in Arkham Origins.

### Batman Arkham Knight

Slade wore the exact same suit as in Arkham Origins, but with more damage. The most damage being on the mask, because Batman knocked off his mask.
