If you're interested in Ograine's Prologue, you might want to read first The Fall of the Watchers
##Lore
"Even immortality won't protect you from disgrace" - Ograine, the Watchers' Frostguardian
"It is not much known about Ograine's past as his duty was to protect the Watchers from any possible threat, even from their own kind. Though Ograine's duty as an guardian wasn't the only thing that his life was based of.
The oldest recorded history of Ograine was long before he met the Watchers - It was a kingdom where Ograine was born and eventually became the guardsman of its king. He protected him with his life, but one day the king travelled to an ally kingdom without Ograine, causing that the King got killed by an surprise attack on the road. A rival king claimed for the lost throne and decimated the people of his newly claimed kingdom for enjoyment. Ograine resisted, he built a rebellion to kill the new king, thus assaulted him in the best place - The public execution place.
A massive battle erected and though Ograine worried about his companions, he chased the fleeing king who did retreat to the fortress. After Ograine defeated everyone on his way, he finally slayed the king, but the cost of the king's head was that the rebellion was obliterated.
Ograine didn't just admit defeat, but he abandoned himself and left the kingdom in its state, thinking that whatever he could've done to compensate, everything would turn worse than before.
After he travelled through Runeterra, he arrived in a cold and a ice-covered country and found the Watchers. Immortality and unlimited power was promised to him when he would show himself worthy. Years passed by and his duties done were beyond selfish nature - he defended every life and fought for the Watchers with his brave soul and frozen sword. Eventually he became an Immortal - The Frostguardian of the Watchers.
When Avarosa prepared her army to rebel against the Watchers, she'd knew that Ograine was a too great threat and that her plan would've never been successfull. In order to start a war against the Watchers, she deceived Ograine to go on a important mission that the Watchers gave them. She promised remnants powerful enough that Ograine could protect the ones important to him - She knew where to hit the spot.
Arrived in a frozen cave outside of the claws and eyes of the Watchers, Avarosa prepared a spell and aimed for Ograine - Before he knew it, he was captured in true ice, which is said to live forever.
Many centuries passed and Ograine was forgotten, for many even considered to be a renegade. Lissandra, who successfully fainted her death to survive centuries of pursuit, recently took over the Frostguard tribe in Freljord and slowly took over her realm with her black ice. It was then when her black ice reached Ograine and freed him from his cryo-sleep.
Ograine met Lissandra and swore eternal loyalty to her and to fulfill her plan to bring back the reign of the Watchers and cover Runeterra once again with ice. Finally, a strong ally on Lissandra's side."

###Appearance
Ograine inherits a knight-like appearance combined with a somewhat young, brave and ruthless "rebel-type" character. There are several images I will link that each somewhat resembles Ograine's appearance but combined together.
Over all Ograine's armor consists of frozen plate armor which isn't that heavy at all, but in a defensive shape.
First the weapon. Ograine's weapon is a frozen Greatsword. Most of the materials of the Greatsword is based on black ice, some parts like the hilt for example consists of metal and leather, which indicates Ograine's past life. However, it has a cold black crystal embedded and the spikes on the side can rotate similiar to a chainsaw. I made the Greatsword.

###Champion Explanation
- Ograine [Og-ray-n] is an immortal similiar to Lissandra, Avarosa or Serilda. Ograine is able to cast or rather use black ice - but instead to use it like Lissandra and cast it on enemies, he rather infuses and empowers his blade, which makes him very dependable on his sword skills.
- Ograine was the "Frostguardian" - This seems to indicate that the Frostguard tribe was called by him, though many were against the name or atleast disliked it because they thought Ograine betrayed the Watchers by leaving them vulnerable.
- Whenever you win at the Howling Abyss, 30 seconds later, Lissandra starts speaking. In the end, she says "Avarosa drove them howling into the abyss. I never forgave her. . I had my revenge — but that is another story." This could mean that Lissandra had her revenge on Avarosa after the incidents - if so, Lissandra said nothing to Ograine. The only reason why Lissandra didn't tell him anything about her taking revenge on Avarosa, was because there could've been a chance that Ograine's thirst for revenge/justice could be satisfied if he knew that Avarosa has been slain by Lissandra.
- Ograine's Greatsword is based on black ice and metal/leather. The spikes can rotate similiar to a chainsaw. Though the chainsaw is a strong addition to Ograine's attacks, it won't work when Ograine infuses his blade with additional black magic.
- If you see Ograine's Greatsword, you see something like two horns with an eye in the middle. This is a reference to the well known symbol at the Howling Abyss where a lock and a picture on the ground is shown with a creature with horns or tentacles..

| Ability | Name | Effect | Type | Range | Cost | Cooldown
|-
| Innate Passive | Blackfrost | Ograine's physical damage applies "Blackfrost" for 1.5 seconds. Blackfrost slows the target for the duration by 10%/15%/20% (+5% for each 25% current Frosttide).
| Q | King's Howl | Ograine shouts an command at enemy units within 350 width and 400 long range to be sentenced and taunts them for 0.5/0.75/1/1.25/1.5 seconds. |AoE |L:400 / W:350| | 21.5 / 19 / 16.5 / 14 / 11.5
| W | Frostguard | Ograine's black ice builds all over his armor and damages enemies who attack him. For 2.5/3/3.5/4/4.5 seconds, Ograine receives +5/+7.5/+10/+12.5/+15 tenacity and on being hit by basic attacks, returns 5%/10%/15%/20%/25% of damage, before any reductions such as armor, as magic damage. | | | 17 / 15.5 / 14 / 12.5 / 11
| E | ExBurst | Ograine roots himself while charging his blade for a great sweep in front of him. Each 0.5 seconds up to max 1.5 seconds, ExBurst charges up to three times each 0.5 seconds. Once released after 1.5 seconds or upon earlier recast, Ograine releases the force of his Greatsword within 350 width and 350 long range and deals with one charge 60/75/90/105/120 (50% Bonus AD) or two charges 85/100/115/130/145 (70% Bonus AD) or three charges 105/120/135/150/165 (+85% Bonus AD) physical damage. |AoE|L:350 / W:350|| 15.5 / 14.5 / 13.5 / 12.5 / 11.5
| Ultimate | Frozen Edge |Passive: Each basic attack deals bonus physical damage equal to 5% max health of Ograine. Upon Activation: Ograine's Greatsword becomes completely frozen by black ice and the black ice enlarges the Greatsword. Ograine's basic attack and ability range are increased by +120/+240/+360 for [Current Frosttide]. The duration depends on the current Frosttide and slowly drains 10% for each second and the ability ends if Frosttide falls to 0. ||||130 / 110 / 90
###Concept Explanation & Personal Opinion
Ograine can put great effort in 1v1 or teamfights. His abilities are overall short-based pre-6, but after unlocking the Ultimate, he'll wreck his opponents.
His Passive is essential for not getting kited all the time, because Ograine has no dash or gap closer and his taunt won't draw a ranged fighter more near - the opposite effect, the opponent keeps attacking you. However, the passive slows opponents who are hit by physical damage by Ograine - this includes all physical damage done like Ravenous Hydra.
Q - King's Howl allows Ograine to taunt a whole group for 1.5 seconds - extremely strong ability, but justifies as Ograine has only one damage ability and an basic attack enhancer.
Ograine's W helps him a lot to survive a great amount of focus both when he uses his Q or over all in a teamfight.
E ability is Ograine's only damage ability. It can deal in an instant damage or can deal much more damage later. It is extremely hard to hit his E at max charge as it is pretty much avoidable.
The Ultimate's passive allows him to deal constant damage for being a tank. It allows him to synergize his innate passive with the ultimate's passive to chase down his opponents. A tricky way to use the Ultimate is to use E while being cast and then cast the Ultimate for a surprise attack.
Over all, Ograine is a strong Tank who can turn the tide if given the chance. He can go in, taunt all enemies who stay close together and offer his team an opportunity in many ways. In combination with his Q, Ograine can also charge his E in the meantime to maximize his damage output. Against enemies with tenacity would be difficult, but not impossible. One problem exists that if you build up your Frosttide ressource, your passive's slow increased for the current amount of Frosttide - If you activate your Ultimate, it slowly drains more and more out which makes your slow reduced to the base slow amount.
Ograine is strong against tanks and squishy assassins like Malphite, Zed, Aatrox, ecetera. Weak against ranged carry and burst champions like Vayne, Jayce, Le Blanc, ecetera.
