"Although outwardly inconspicuous, the Musketeer's regalia is reinforced with hardened leather underarmor, allowing her to sustain a considerable amount of focus fire. Her musket's variable ammunition and trusty sidearm allow her to deal debilitating damage at range."

Trivia

 * Her first predetermined name, Quiet, is a reference to a character of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom PainTM. As of now, her predetermined name is Margaret.
 * No backer heroes exist within her, because she was an invisible class on Kickstarter classified as "Lord Tier", the other two are the DLC heroes: the Flagellant and the Shieldbreaker.
 * Her bark while being targeted by the final boss is a reference to Alexandre Dumas novel "The Three Musketeers".
 * The Musketeer's crystaline trinket, Icosahedric Musket Balls, and the Arbalest's, Keening Bolts, have different effects, making these the only mechanical difference between the two.
