Hillding is a character in Otherworld Legends. He can be found sitting to Quan's left in the Living Room, drinking something from some sort of mug. He is unlockable at the price of 18 Character/Universal Hero fragments / $2.99 or equivalent in other currencies in the Living Room Shop.

## Overall

Hillding is a Viking berserker. As a member of a tribe which goes on long raids in the harshest conditions, he is very strong and fights rough, constantly on the offensive. His health is high, and he has no shield, meaning he no longer gets a shield blast effect or the perks from shield break. Because of this, his health regenerates constantly at a slow rate, the same at which shield does so. His crit rate is avarage, his movement speed is average for melee character, and, surprisingly, his attack speed is lower than normal, the lowest in the game tied with Oli, despite the fact that his attacks are all quite fast. As such, the only practical change this brings into the battlefield is attack speed items scaling less quickly.

Hillding also has a unique gimmick: Wrath. His Wrath meter is shown at the bottom of the screen in a bar with an axe on either side and a Viking helm on top. The current Wrath level is visible via a number at the center, which caps at 100, or through the graphic effect of the bar filling up. Hillding's skills have no cooldown, and as such, Wrath is required to perform them. Taking damage (excluding debuff damage) gives twice the Wrath for each point of damage taken. If a hit's damage is negated, Hillding will still get the Wrath from the move's full force. Hitting enemies with dodge attacks and default attacks also grants an amount of Wrath specified below. The Wrath bar is maxed out whenever Hillding enters a scene.

As well as this, Hillding has yet another passive, being his rampage state. When HP drops below 25%, Hillding becomes permanently unflinching and his damage stat rises by 50% and his attack speed rises by 30% as a way to make a comeback. There is also a set of yellow afterimages trailing behind him while in this state.

All his skill buttons can be held to lauch them repeatedly one after the other.

## Skills

***Note that all used damage numbers are the default values (damage stat=10) and scale with the damage stat.***

* **Default attack:** By pressing the default attack button, Hillding dashes towards the target and hits them with their axes twice before looping over. This allows Hillding to dash towards enemies constantly. Even without the dash, the move covers a substantial distance, so it's hard to stay in place and hit the same enemy. Each hit grants 2 Wrath per each enemy hit.
* **Roll:** His forward roll and backward roll are identical. Hillding dashes forwards by default. When dashing, Hillding becomes invincible and jumps forward, hitting enemies in his path twice with a single downwards swing. Hillding stops dead after the axe strike, meaning he won't keep any momentum, making this attack fail at making Hillding move any faster. The attack restores 5 Wrath per each enemy hit.
* **Elephant Thrusts His Leg:** Hillding consumes 20 Wrath and kicks forwards after a very brief animation, knocking enemies back and dealing 15 damage. If an enemy hits an object they could usually not move through, they will take extra damage and be dazed. Skill Styles:
	+ **Wild Wolf Chases the Moon:** The kick dashes towards the targetted enemy like a default attack would.
	+ **2 Lambs 1 Kick:** The kick's knockback is largely increased, and if an enemy bumps into another enemy while being knocked back, they will both take extra damage and be dazed.
	+ **Take Root:** The skill's startup animation is much faster, to the point of almost being instant, and the damage dealt is doubled. The damage when hitting an object stays the same, however.
* **Sneaky Rat Rubs its Tummy:** Hillding throws food, depending on stile into the air, consuming 50 Wrath. The food will fall down in a brief moment, and Hillding will eat it upon touching it. Default skill throws meat, restoring 10 health instantly upon eating. Hillding can move away from the food before it falls down, in which case the food will stay on the ground where he left it to be picked up at a later time by walking into it. Allies and multiplayer partners are also capable of picking the food up. The food is consumed regardless of whether Hillding's HP bar is full or not. Skill Styles:
	+ **Gorilla Roasts Meat:** After eating the food, Hillding's automatic health restoration goes much faster for 5 seconds.
	+ **Piggy Munches Mushroom:** The skill throws a mushroom instead that does not restore health, but once picked up, makes Hillding unflinching for 5 seconds, also showing it with 4 tiny Hildings, dancing around him, and, if Hillding is hit during the unflinching period, causes a ghostly Hillding to appear that travels in a straight line spinning with his axes in the direction of the attacker. It can move in any direction, not just left or right. Enemies hit by the ghostly Hillding will take damage several times and be knocked back. The ghost benefits from damage stat but not items. It cannot crit.
	+ **Bunny Nibbles Chili Pepper:** The skill throws a chili pepper instead that does not restore health, but once picked up, gives Hillding one stack of fire and increases his damage by 60% and attack speed by 30% for 5 seconds. The burn lasts a bit longer than the boosting effect.
* **Tiger Devours Lamb:** Hillding dashes forwards a short distance in a quick animation slashing with his axes around him, consuming 20 Wrath and hiting any foe in his path twice, dealing 10 damage per each hit. While holding a neutral position on the movement stick, the dash is normal, but holding upwards or downwards makes the dash happen in place, and holding forwards or backwards massively increases the dash's length in the direction of the joystick. Hitting enemies has a chance to drop either a piece of food that can be eaten for 2 HP (can be picked up even when Hillding is full on health) or small pieces of treasure worth 1 or 2 Gold. Characters other than Hillding cannot pick up loot spawned by this skill, and no loot is dropped in the Boxing Club. Skill Styles:
	+ **Gourmand Big Cat:** The skill is far more likely to drop food, now occasionally drops food pieces that do not give HP but rather have special effects of their own:
		- Meat Skewer: Grants a 30% damage bonus for 5 seconds.
		- Fish: Grants an 0.3 attack speed bonus for 5 seconds.
		- Sausage: Grants 20 Wrath upon being eaten.
	+ **Coin Stealing Snake:** The skill is far more likely to drop Gold, now occasionally dropping treasure worth 3 or 5 Gold.
	+ **Woodchuck Chucks Wood:** The skill can be charged, rapidly consuming Wrath, starting at 20 as usual. The charge can be held forever, but it will only ever consume a maximum of 100 Wrath. Hillding is unflinching during the charge. When the charge is released, Hillding will perform the skill as usual, but in this case is unflinching and will deal much more damage the more Wrath was consumed to launch the skill. Despite the flashes while charging, the damage dealt is not staged, but rather increases gradually the more Wrath is spent, 4 damage per 5 Wrath,except 20 Wrath, used for activating the skill, up to 75 damage for 100 Wraith.
* **Tornado Decimates Donkey Farm:** Hillding charges up, consuming 20 Wrath instantly and then using the rest gradually to charge. He is unflinching while charging. The charge can be held forever, but will only ever consume a maximum of 100 Wrath. When the charge is released, he begins spinning with his axes, dealing 6 damage per hit. You retain full control over Hillding to move him around in this state, in which he damages everything he touches. The longer the charge, the longer the spin lasts. Skill Styles:
	+ **Leopard Stirs up the Wind:** The skill's charging speed is massively increased.
	+ **Hippo Inhales a Gust of Air:** Enemies around Hillding are dragged into the spin and are taken along its path.
	+ **Buffalo Spins its Dress:** The area the spin covers is increased by more than double.
