If you don't want to be confused out of your mind then skip to the lore... if you wish to read what's directly underneath this warning then by all means go ahead XD.

*Hi everyone~ i decided to make a support character that could deal high amounts of damage, while at the same time keeping their ADC alive. Now you're probably wondering "Why the hell would i want a supp that can do tons of damage o.o?" Well i'll tell you why (sheesh~). I feel like a lot of supps don't do enough damage while in lane (you: "well duh! They're not supposed to do damage -_-. That's the ADC's job") (me: "can you shut up for 5 seconds pls >A<?"). The reason i feel this is a bad thing is because of certain situations where the supp is isolated from the only source of damage they have : the ADC. When this happens, it ends up in the supp not doing any damage whatsoever and feeding the enemy team's ADC (you: "That's only what bronze 5 noobs do!") (me :"I swear to god i will kill you right now -.-...") Also many people blame supps for not doing their job : keeping the ADC alive while they do all the work and take all the kills. This is somehow stated as the meta - which i think is complete BS since the ADC is pretty much babied throughout like the 1st 15 min of the game while no other lane gets that kinda treatment- and it kinda makes no sense o.o. Especially since most ADC's - not all- are to blame for their own deaths when they rush in and expect the supp to jump in with them. Why should the supp jump in? Most of them don't do a lot of damage early on. Let's take Sona and Soraka for instance. Most of the time these 2 supps will be built on one thing : survival of the ADC. In this case the chosen characters will most likely get their heal 1st - if not, you're obviously not supporting unless you get sora's silence 1st Then it doesn't matter- and will most likely max out their heal 1st as well. This limits the amount of damage they can do by a large amount, especially since each of these supps only have 1 move that can actually damage the enemies greatly -excluding Sona's ult and Soraka's silence since Sona's ult can't be used as often as her hymn and Sora's silence doesn't do much damage compared to her Q- and they aren't much help in a fight (you: "i beg to differ-") (me: "what did i just say fool!?). Now let's compare those 2 to someone like Blitz or Thresh. These supps can easily hold their own in a fight and can actually do something damage wise. However they cannot keep their ADC alive for very long since they have no actual heal - though thresh does have a shield-. Not to mention a lot of people get mad at them if they miss a hook/grab. Then there's Lulu. She can deal damage, give a shield, and can even increase the speed of herself or an ally. But she is very easy to kill and can take farm from the ADC whenever she attacks with pix. Overall, none of these supps can really do much when the ADC is gone - unless the supp is either Braum or Blitz-. So this goes back to the question earlier : Why do we need a supp that can do damage? To pick up the slack of the ADC. Aka, a backup for if the ADC can't carry. Serenity plays out as a secondary ADC of sorts ("That's just plain bull"). This sounds like it means "Hey I can steal all the kills since i'm technically a 2nd ADC!" but that's not what i'm getting at. I just feel there should be a supp that is well balanced and can hold their own in lane even if the ADC is afk or can't connect - same thing but w/e- as well as be versatile in what lanes they can play in (such as top or mid). This might not make sense to you and possibly this entire thing has confused you. If so lemme know and i'll try to explain better as to why i believe a damage type supp should be made (XD) *

I will do whatever it takes to end the suffering of the world!

**lore: **

Growing up as a slave wasn’t easy for the young Serenity, as she was subject to much abuse and sexual assault most of the time. Strangely, this never broke her, as she kept her spirits high, often cheering up the slaves around her with words of hope and happiness. Serenity loved listening to music and the world through her headphones, which she wore at any given time unless circumstances didn’t allow her to.Her best friend, Clarity, was always there for her, which made Serenity’s days even better. They always talked of the League's heroes and heroines. Serenity was especially fond of Amumu, the strange mummy Yordle that always seemed to look sad and constantly looking for companionship. That sadness called to Serenity and she just wanted to give him a hug and say “you are no longer alone, because i will be your friend!”. Clarity would laugh playfully at her friends dream. Those days of ‘bliss’ soon ended, however, when Serenity and Clarity’s master decided Clarity was no longer of use. He killed her in front of his other slaves, to prove that they were nothing more than toys to him. Serenity stood there, frozen in horror as she watched her friend’s lifeless body slump to the ground, blood oozing from between her chest. Serenity screamed loudly, her voice echoing around the entire building, piercing through each and every heart of anyone who heard it. In mere seconds everyone around her was dead, including her master. She bawled, unable to keep her emotions bottled up She cried for her deceased friend. She cried for having murdered people. She cried because of the years of abuse she had suffered though. And, through all that grief, she cried for the happiness of now being free. She walked over to her friends dead body and lightly kissed her on the forehead. “I promise you Clarity… I will achieve my dream of being a league hero, so that people will no longer have to suffer the abuse we had to go through!” And with that statement she left, heading straight for the Ministry of War and onto the Fields of Justice...

Characteristics :

Pros -
	Serenity can hold her own in lane in case her partner needs to back or if she is in lane solo ( top)
	Can poke easily and slowly widdle down the opposition's health.
            Great early game and doesn’t do that bad late game due to her Attack Mode.
            Can be used effectively to deal damage while at the same time keeping her partner alive.
            Meant to be a counter for people with grabs (such as thresh, blitz, and nautilus)

   Cons -
            High cooldowns on most of her skills make her use them effectively and sparingly.
            Passive can only be used outside of combat.
            No real escape in case of ganks(of course her showtime could possibly make up for this).
            Can ks relatively easy in Attack Mode so many people might not go in this when supporting (Q_Q)

Recommended Build :

Masteries - probably some in offense and maybe some in utility (like extra starting gold) (15/0/15) or put all of them in offense so that she can deal tons of damage (XD). there is no real reason to put any in defense unless you want some extra sustain (or possibly jungle her, though her potential is a lot less than someone like vi or hecarim)

Starting items - If you’re supporting i suggest getting a item 3303 or an item 3301 depending on if you want to play passively or poke heavily and some potions. if you're going to hybrid or go straight fighter i suggest getting a item 1055 and a potion. Full build - Support - item 3003 item 3174 item 3504 item 3157 item 3027 item 3111 Fighter - item 3284 item 3508 item 3074 item 3072 item 3046 item 3031 These are based on some builds i use. Also this is not the order of items you get them in, just the order i have them placed on my item sets XD.

/Joke

"Aren't i just a bundle of love <3?" - in this joke Serenity puts her hands behind her back and sways slightly from right to left. "Im Serenity! I'm Helping!" - in this joke Serenity goes into the stance of J4 "I know those feels..." - In this joke Serenity makes a hugging gesture. "Don't break anybody's heart, they only have one. Break their bones, they have 206!" - In this joke Serenity points forward with her right hand and places her left hand on her hip.

When near an ally Amumu - "Come her and gimme a hug you <3" Hugging gesture When near an ally Chogath - "Om nom nom nom <3" in a cutesy voice while making an eating gesture with her hands near her mouth. When near an ally Karthus - "Encore Encore!" Pumps up her left hand in the air like at a concert. When near an ally Taric - "How outrageous are gems?" no real change in movement (for now) When near an ally Ryze - "It's time to... Ryze and shine (giggle)!" jumps in the air and falls down laughing When near an allySona - When Sona plays her joke near Serenity, she will play a sad melody, while Serenity sings if she plays her joke around the same time - "Why must you leave me~? Oh sweet child, strong and free... (kinda corny but w/e >.> you try coming up with lyrics in 12 seconds and see how you do :D) Serenity places her right hand on her chest while extending her left hand in the air while she sings. She then falls on the ground and cries. When near an ally Braum - "Braum! Hero of the Frel- ow~ I bit my tongue..." Serenity tries to sing of Braum's heroic deeds but bites her tongue.

/Taunt

"GET HYPER!!" - Serenity jumps up and down trying to hype herself. "Riot can't fix bad player attitudes >A<" - Serenity shakes her head and places both arms across her chest to give her a look like she's mad. "Don't blame the lag when i kick your butt!" - Serenity makes a bunch of punching gestures.

So lemme know what you guys think. Maybe things that need reworking or maybe something overall that doesn't sit right with you. I'm open to all criticism (not trollng! there is a VERY huge difference from saying "her Q dmg may need to be lowered" then "She's complete garbage and shouldn't even exist! who the heck came up with such a stupid champ?!") and feedback. Also sorry for the bad quality of the drawing >A<.

EDIT 1 - figured out how to put the pic in here so here it is : Serenity

The reason champions that can heal and shield others don't deal tons of damage is because it would make them overpowered, which is what Serenity is. She can be one, or she can be the other. She can not be both.

Also, I know you're excited, but try to keep your posts free from excessive emoticons. When making a suggestion such as this, people will take you far less seriously when your post is riddled with faces.

In addition, we already have a sound-based support character. The odds of another being released are slim-none, as that role is already filled. We probably won't ever see another sound based champion in general, and if we do, Sona mains will raise hell.

Try to think much more simple with jokes and taunts. They take 2-3 seconds, and the animation is always the same, except in the case of Braum, where he has a 50% chance to do either animation. Plus, her jokes and taunts have to make sense with what she does or her lore. Riot rarely if ever implements a joke or taunt near another champion for the heck of it (The Karthus one was good, Sona one would take too long and is a little too complex).

Lastly, your drawing looks good, but she looks too much like a generic "Kawaii Audio Girl" What can you do to change her to fit the League's feel with the rest of the champions? What would really make her stick out instead of being "A girl with headphones"?

I hope I've been able to help out a bit and haven't come off as a jerk. The idea was a good one, but without severe changes, it's just not going to happen. She's too strong in literally every single role except for ADC with her current kit.

well mst mage supports cannot deal Damage because they play supportive or go mid, think about: Lissandra Lux Nidalee Annie , they have good utility but when they go supp they don't deal as much as Damage as when they go mid. that is mostly Because of their itemisationwhen they go support. so even Soraka and Lulu can hold their own if they go full AP heck Topraka/Midraka and Lulu top/mid are qquite or where quite powerfull when they go full AP. and then we have AD Sona (until her kit rework is done) who can wreck some times. and not to even Forget Nami when she is full AP. yh she might not be hyper carry mid but she can do her job good :)

over to your champion. well ppl just say: "it is a sona clone AWAY WITH HER" well to those ppl would say this: "Well sona uses her Instrument and Serenety uses her Voice and Voice based Champions haven't been realy done so STFU" her Lore is realy nicely written. I trealy made me like her as Character. but there is one thing that bothered me and that is:

she was subject to much abuse and sexual assault most of the time.

well LoL is still a 12+ game so adding things such as sexual assault might not be good because 12 year olds don't know what sex is yet and it can better be done when they are 16/18 years old. so just remove the sexual assault part to make it more appropiate. hen the art, well she looks good on paper :)

her kit, well she is a jack of all trades which already makes her a bit to OP. just being able to heal your allies while dealing alot of damage without reprocussion is just to much. so if you still wan't to have a damage support then I have one idea: make her more Choice based, that can be done by adding a longer cooldown and letting her support and attack mode abilities have the same Cooldown, For example her support mode Q will go on Cooldown aswell as her attack mode Q when she uses her Q. that way she will: A. still manage to hold her own in lane, B. be more challenging to play as wrong choices will backfire her harder. C. be less OP. and above all, have her Unique Mechanic (Most Transform Champs dont have a shared Cooldown on their abilities in both forms)

then the abilities in her attack form are a bit to Basic to be honest. they can use some more fun based mechanic to be honest because now, its just smashing buttons when in attack form so try to add a bit more of offenve strategy like dashing into the enemy team or something like that.

then her support mode is also a very Generic healbot, with heals and a shield. I would remove the shield or heal and replace it with a skillshot type of support move.

also her R is also pretty basic, there should be more reward to ectually Transfrm into her other modes like all the other transform Champs have:

then her jokes feel a bit out of character, "Don't break anybody's heart, they only have one. Break their bones, they have 206!" just does not sound kind, it sounds more like she is just in for blood while she is not. but I realy like the interaction joke with sona :) it just fits her very well :) so try to base her jokes more around Serenety's personality and her singing voice just to make her jokes better.

her taunts, well only her first one is not directly breaking the 4th wall here so try making the jokes more aimed at the summoner Like: "Don't blame the connection between you and your summoner when i kick your butt!" or "lemme talk to your summoner because you don't deserve to serve such a bad one!" that way the 4th wall won't be directly broken since Summoners are Characters in LoL which you are playing :)

wow what a long Feedback I made man, hope it's not to long XD

I also made a Support Champ who can go mid, would you pls Check it out and give it some feedback? I would realy appreciate if you do that. http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/fancreations/REVHERFj-champion-concept-mila-the-stray-light
