While Dishonored's original assassin is returning for the sequel, Arkane took the opportunity to turn Empress Emily Kaldwin into a playable protagonist as well. Last time we saw Emily she was a young princess in need of rescue. In Dishonored 2, she's grown into a capable assassin who can stand toe-to-toe with even the toughest of the royal guard. Here's how she grew from feeble princess to fearless empress.

Whatever happens to one afflicts the others.Shadow Walk - Emily transforms into a small, etherial shadow creature, which can move relatively unseen through environments and rat holes, or be used to perform perfect assassinations.Doppelganger - This clone of Emily is perfect for distracting guards or setting up terrible chain reactions in conjunction with Domino.Background HistoryEmpress Emily Kaldwin is well-educated and accustomed to a position of privilege. However, her personality was influenced by an early tragedy. As a girl, Emily dreamed of going on adventures with pirates and sea monsters, and loved digging up treasures and rare artifacts. The original Dishonored tells the sad story of how Emily's mother was assassinated before Emily was kidnapped in a plot to overthrow the empire. In the canonical ending, Emily is rescued by Corvo, who brings her back to Dunwall where she begins her new life as a monarch.Haunted by these traumatic events, Emily can occasionally be melancholy and dramatic. Thankfully, she developed a keen mind despite her hardships, and grew into a capable leader."Dunwall is better under Emily," says creative director Harvey Smith. "It's not crushed by the rat plague anymore. It's still a big, dirty industrial city filled with corruption, but it's better under Emily. There are no walls of light or tall boys or arc pylons. She drained the flooded district and restored it as a financial quarter. Every year, she has the city celebrate the anniversary of her mother's death in a giant celebration."Learn more about Emily Kaldwin at Game Informer StoryDishonored 2 is set 15 years after the Lord Regent has been vanquished and the dreaded Rat Plague has passed into history.
