Lilith

Lilith is one of thirteen Sirens, a group of women with unbelievable powers.

Gameplay
Lilith typically operates as a close range striker, using numerous elemental damage enhancements to inflict damage and a range of self buffing skills to quickly enter and exit the fray, as well as to survive once in the heat of battle. Her active ability, Phasewalk, allows her to either sneak in or out of hostile groups with the cover of invisibility and increased speed, and she's capable of dealing high damage with melee attacks combined with Phasewalk, or with ranged attacks. She can especially excel with Elemental weapons, and is capable of dazing the opponents she hits. While not exactly durable, Lilith can use her Phasewalk defensively to aid her survival. She has a class mod that enhances SMGs, and Snipers (DLC3), but otherwise she can use any weapon type, with some advantages for high damage critical weapons like Snipers, and slow projectile weapons like the Eridian Cannon. Lilith's melee attack is an energy blast. Her skill trees are Assassin, which gives her more damage in melee and on critical hits; Controller, which gives her the ability to daze targets she attacks; and Elementalist, which adds bonuses for weapons that employ explosive, static, incendiary and corrosive damage. Spread throughout the three trees are some defensive abilities to increase her resilience and elusiveness.

Active Ability

 * See Article: Active Abilities for info.

Lilith's skill is called Phasewalk, which lets her turn invisible to enemies (but not to her teammates to whom she appears as translucent blue), move much faster, and cause a damaging shockwave upon entering and exiting. Gearbox co-founder Randy Pitchford describes it as "kind of like when Frodo puts on the ring, except that when she takes it off she can kill everything around her with a shock wave nova effect." This effect can be altered by using unique artifacts that can add elemental damage to the "shockwave".
