One of the three starting Descendants, Lepic is a Fire attribute character who uses his Arche Drive Tactical Prosthetic Arm to unleash grenade-focused abilities. Lepic is one of currently five Descendants that have an Ultimate form, which is a super buffed version of the character. His passive skill is called Close Call, which gives him a chance to survive fatal damage.

The key part of Lepic's kit is his second active skill, Overclock, which will increase the damage and Burn effect of his other abilities. His Grenade ability will launch a strong grenade from his arm, whereas his Traction Grenade ability will launch a grenade that does not deal damage but pulls enemies into a center point. The Ultimate ability, Overkill, will launch a powerful shell that will do initial damage and stick to its target to deal more damage over time.

Playing with friends makes The First Descendant much more enjoyable as that is the intended way this looter shooter is meant to be played.

Ajax is a non-attribute character and also one of the starter Descendants.
