[Archived] New Hero Ideas I! (READ THE OP)

[Terminal_6]

Dang Stammer, I never thought of it that way. I knew what their names meant, but I was too stupid to associate it with their genotype. Also, "Seraph," if I'm not wrong, is another name for an angel. It probably gets more specific than that, but I'm not sure. So can I change one of my hero's name to Jesus?

Anyhoo, I got a new hero for YOU!

Clastra, the Flaming Blade Master

Plasma Ravager

Bio: Before the Darkspore raids, Clastra was a factory manager on Infinity. When the Darkspore came, a mutation mine crashed directly into Clastra's control tower, sending her burned body cascading into the firey depthes of the Infinity mines. Crogenitor Suzu raised her body, and sent her to his friend, Crogenitor Ptyron. Ptyron revived Clastra, and granted her power over the flames and magma that ran through her veins. Unfortunately, Ptyron was forced to abandon his labrotory, and Clastra with it before she regained consciousness. Clastra woke to the sound of Darkspore ravaging through Ptyron's labs, tearing them apart. By instinct alone, Clastra burned them in an inferno, leaving nothing but ashes of their remains. She fashioned an electro-rapier of Ptyron's equipment, and set out to find others of her kind. She never did, until she found you, Crogenitor.

Weapon: Electro-Rapier

Base attack: Needle Swarm --- Clastra stabs her enemy repeatedly. 50% chance for the first strike to burn the enemy. Deals 6-10 damage, 1/8 second cooldown. Deals Physical damage.

1st Ability: Flame Pilars --- A tornado of flames will appear in a random position within 15m of Clastra, And will grow 2m in diameter per second. The tornadoes will follow a random pattern, moving at a slow 5m per second. Contact with the enemy will burn, and deal 4-10 damage.

Variant Ability: Webbed Lightning, Meteor Strike, Chain Lightning, Inferno --- Clastra fires a massive arc of fire, dealing high 15-25 damage to enemies caught in the blast.

Squad Ability: Frantic Burn --- Clastra burns one enemy, causing them to run to other Darkspore, burning them as well. Increases affected foes' movement speed by 50% until it wears off.

Passive Ability: Smokescreen --- Every 16 seconds, Calstra surrounds herself with a veil of smoke for 4 seconds, rendering her invisible until making contact with an enemy.

Chronus, the Time Legionnaire
Quantum Sentinel

Bio:

Chronus was an esteemed engineer on Zelem’s Nexus whose job was creating new technologies for stabilizing the Shield Ring. Not only did he know the ring’s workings inside and out, but he could also fix problems before they began. It was if Chronus was psychic.

One quiet, fateful day, Zelem himself appeared in front of Chronus. Shocked for the first time in his life by the sudden manifestation of a stranger, he picked up one of his tools and readied himself for an impending attack. Zelem calmed him down and offered him payment for his centuries of service to the Nexus.

Zelem enhanced Chronus’ temporal powers through genetic mutation and made it so he could easily keep the entire Shield Ring in flawless operation. But so fast did he maintain the shield, he grew bored. Chronus took arms and gave himself the secondary role of defender of the Ring. When the Darkspore came, Chronus led his many followers into battle to defend the Nexus.

Vesuvius, the Igneous Ancient
Plasma Sentinel

Bio:

No one knows how old he actually is. He claims he has been around since Cryos was a young planet teeming with life. And he has only recently begun to age because of the cold. Vesuvius was a watchful father over the planet, helping advance society and offering sage advice, acting as a leader and even a diplomat. The people he called his brothers and sisters never fought. He was an icon to them all.

But an ice-battered, millennia old man stood no chance against the Darkspore when they first hit the planet. He was killed, and the survivors on Cryos lost all morale. Crogenitor Ptyron knew that such a symbol for hope would give Cryos a fighting chance, so he did everything he could do to save the fallen ancient. And when he did, he modified Vesuvius to withstand punishment.

Filled with new life, Vesuvius led his allies into battle with vigour. With their morale restored and their hero beside them, they finally began to take back their beloved planet.

----------------------------------------------------------------



Weapon: Massive, double-sided hammers.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Abilities:


Judgement (Attack) -- Vesuvius swings his mighty hammer, dealing 21-35 points of physical damage to a single target. Has a 25% chance to taunt enemies that it damages.

>Power Cost: 12

- Alteration 1: Halves absorption effect, but gives Vesuvius a Spiky effect that reflects 25% of would-be damage to the attacker.
- Alteration 2: The sheer weight of the skin gives Vesuvius a Surefooted effect that prevents him from being pushed, pulled, or rooted.
>Power Cost: 25
>Range: Self
>Cooldown: 30.0s


Phalanx (Passive) -- Vesuvius’ carapace caps enemy damage to one-quarter of Vesuvius’ maximum health (X damage). (Overdrive: The carapace toughens considerably to cap incoming damage to one-tenth of Vesuvius’ maximum health (X damage).)

Variant Abilities:
Alpha α -- Flame Surge
Beta β -- Electron Sphere
Gamma γ -- Webbed Lightning
Delta δ -- Meteor Strike

Notes:
- "Vesuvius" is pronounced [ves oo vee əss] and is the name of the Roman volcano that buried Pompeii and Herculaneum in AD 79.
- He is a considered a male and is the only known member of his species.
- His primary attack, Judgement, is extremely slow but very powerful to compensate (it averages out to the same DPS as other heroes).
- He was designed from the ground up to be a tank. His primary attack taunts, he can shed negative status effects, Granite Hide acts as a pre-emptive heal, and Phalanx strongly reduces the danger of hard-hitting enemies.

Heron, the Sky-Taker
Cyber Ravager

Bio:

Like many of Infinity’s workers, he started out small. A small, rotary blade-bearing sentry camera with a built in alarm called SD-68. But Infinity thrived as a mining planet, and it wasn’t long before the upgrades began taking place.

SD-68’s first upgrade was a petty artificial intelligence to replace his alarm. Then came wings and shortly afterwards an enhanced optical sensor. Over the years he was given miniscule upgrades to his AI to work with his upgrades, new sensors such as audio, olfactory, and even somatosensory. He was given small weapons to distract intruders, and eventually stronger weapons to fully defend an area.

Finally, he was given an identity: Heron.

----------------------------------------------------------------



Weapon: Interchangable claw-feet attachments. (Note: Heron has two offense slots and no feet. Instead, his weapons give him movement speed)

---------------------------------------------------------------

Abilities:


Hermes' Talon (Attack) -- Heron attacks the target with his claws, dealing 7-15 physical damage.
>Range: 3m
>Cooldown: 0.5s


Piercing Salvo (Unique) -- Heron launches an onslaught of 15 razor-sharp, metallic feathers from his wings toward the target. Each one dealing 2-3 points of physical damage.
>Power Cost: 18
>Range: 14m
>Cooldown: 11.0s


Hawk Eye (Squad) -- Heron uses enhanced vision to pinpoint key targets on the battlefield, helping him prioritize enemies. The effect automatically expires after 5 seconds. (Highlights Aura-affixed Elite enemies, also makes enemies either resistant to the user’s primary attack or the same genesis as the user glow red while enemies vulnerable to the user appear green)
- Alteration 1: Improves accuracy against “Red” enemies by 50%.
- Alteration 2: Improves damage against “Green” enemies by 10%.
>Power Cost: 6
>Range: Self
>Cooldown: 7.0s


Bird of Prey (Passive) -- Deals 25% extra damage to enemies not on their origin planet. (Overdrive: Deals 50% extra damage to enemies not on their origin planet and 25% extra damage to all other enemies)

Variant Abilities:
Alpha α -- Charged Strike
Beta β -- Omni Shield
Gamma γ -- Zetawatt Beam
Delta δ -- Proximity Mine

Notes:
- "Heron" is pronounced [hérrən]
- Though genderless, Heron is referred to as a male because of his outward appearance.
- He is like Jinx in that he is always flying and does not have a foot slot (as a result, movement speed comes primarily from his weapon). And because he is a ravager he can equip a second offense item instead.
- An example of how Bird of Prey works is that if Heron were attacking a Necrodactyl (a necro minion) on Cryos (the plasma homeworld) he would gain +25% damage towards that enemy. This also means that he has a huge advantage on Scaldron since it is the homeworld to no creature types.

[Terminal_6]

Panthor, The Great Hunter
Male, Bio Ravager

Bio: Panthor was always an outcast from the Verdanthis, and it suited him quite well. He hated the company of others, and love to terrorize society. He had never been caught, and that had always been his main source of pride. However, when the Darkspore came, Panthor created a new "game." He ambushed squads of Darkspore, tearing them apart and devouring their remains. Eventually, Darkspore squads came out looking specifically for him. After multiple close calls, Panthor swallowed his pride and fled in search of a way off Verdanth.
Crogenitor Astra found Panthor, hopelessly lost and desperate. Astra upgraded Panthor's body in every way possible, even giving him power over the jungles he roamed.

Appearance: Four legged, sort of like a panther.

D: Forest Hurricane --- Panthor fires multiple sharp leaves at a high speed at the enemy. The attack will randomly fire any number of leaves between 5 and 10. Each leave deals 8-12 physical damage. 10% chance to root the target, 12 second cooldown.

Squad Ability: Terror Roots --- Panthor roots the target, causing a piked root to grow under them, straight up, dealing high damage at a slow rate.

Passive Ability: Escape Artist --- When hear a wall or obstacle, Panthor has a 75% dodge chance against an enemies first attack.

Vein, The Dark Avenger
Type: Ravager
Genesis: Necro

Bio: Vein always lived in the shadows of other, underrated and forgotten. No matter what he did, he was always hidden by corruption and the greed of others. Even when the Darkspore invaded, he did not receive credit for his valiant efforts to repel them. Eventually, Vein gave up. He allowed the Darkspore to kill every last one of his superiors. He even laughed as they suffered defeat after defeat. However, his plan turned sour. The Darkspore razed cities, killing everyone Vein loved. He rose again to fight them after his family perished. Unfortunately, he lacked allies and was overwhelmed by the Darkspore's superior numbers. Upon his futile escape, Crogenitor Ingto abducted him. Vein did not retaliate as Ingto performed painful experiments and surgeries on him. He knew it was for the better. Vein rose with power far greater than he could have ever imagined.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Appearance: Vein has two legs, each with three joints. His long torso supports six arms, each of which carry a short sword.

Squad Ability: Duplicate --- Vein creates a duplicate of himself, which will not attack but attract enemies' attention, and will perish after taking X amount of damage.
Passive Ability: Dark Fury --- After 15 hits to a single target, the target will become terrified.

[Stammer6]

That squad ability sounds like something I was going to do for Heron, the Sky-Taker. It's a great idea, for sure, and I'd love to use him for that.

One piece of criticism for that hero, though: That passive is already in use by Vex. Yeah, Vex's gives less Attack Speed but with Movement Speed, but I think just 15% Attack Speed is overpowered by comparison.

[Terminal_6]

Hm... ok then... Alright, I've thought of a new one. After 15 hits to a single enemy, the enemy will become terrified. Is there one like that out there already?
