[Champion Concept] Kuroi, the Mask of Death
Lore: "Kuroi Corvus, never spoke, never showed feelings, and was always impassible. Not only his silence determined his position in the community of Noxus, also his lack of empathy had brought himself from his childhood on, a dark and cruel aura around him.
Only a few knew, but Kuroi was once a childhood friend of the well-known Tactician and leader of Noxus, Jericho Swain. Swain was not used to have any relation to others, but Kuroi was like Swain, though Kuroi never used his lips to introduce himself. Swain appreciated that Kuroi was different from the others, and so they were playing together.
Till one day, Swain's right leg was snapped in half, unknown reasons behind, only deaf sight left. He turned away, leaving Kuroi and his loneliness all alone.
Kuroi was more than ever lost, and was soon to be forced being an adult with very young years. Neither his family nor any other who had known his name, was caring about him anymore.
Many years passed by, and the childhood friends, Jericho Swain and Kuroi Corvus had met again, as Swain was an Officer and Kuroi his companion, who was under the direct control of Swain. Kuroi, one loyal, one desperate warrior, he always fought on Swain's side, no matter what happened. In the end, he led Swain to the top of the High Command's hierarchy.
At the point where Swain was relegated to inactive status during Ionian Invasion, Kuroi didn't understood the reasons behind of it, but still he fought in the Ionian Invasion. Kuroi felt betrayed, somehow he had feelings that he could'nt had imagined.
These feelings led him feel superior in battle, as his newly found rage and hatred filled his soul. While being both dead inside and at the same time alive, he exaggerated his capabilities and was caught by Ionians. A unknown soldier pierced Kuroi with a sword, falling on the ground with a deadly wound.
No one could tell about the next thing happened, but while Kuroi's corpse was left behind and all Ionians turned away, he straight got up. His eyes were dark as the night itself, his hands became soaked by blood, while he was breathing deeply. As if his potential was mysteriously unlocked, from his imagination, all corpses near by on the battlefield, came back to life and attacked immediately the Ionian army.
Kuroi should have been praised as a Hero, but unfortunately, his powers were too frightening for most Noxians. Kuroi had the powers to control the ones who was dead, and so Kuroi's meaning of respecting the life of others came to an end. All of his servants under his control were killed and revived as creatures without free will, only following orders from their master, Kuroi Corvus.
As Kuroi was hated amongst the Noxians, because he killed most of the army to assure the loyalty to Kuroi, and as Swain came back to his active duty, Swain betrayed Kuroi furthermore and exiled Kuroi out of Noxus.
Hidden beneath everyone's eyes, under the feets of living, Kuroi prepared the best man for his army of undead"
"I've fought with this man for many years, and I can assure you that he never said any word. His true feelings are hidden behind his actions" - Unknown Soldier
Appearence: Kuroi wears a Black Bird Mask, heavy plate greaves and has a long white scarf. Kuroi uses black magic to inflict damage over time and summon his servants. His weapon is a coffin that he wears on his back. From the coffin, he summons his servants.
I've made a picture of what he could look like. -> Kuroi

Zombie Kuroi, with a tombstone, servants are zombies and they would come out of the ground in front of the tombstone.
Void Kuroi, with a dimension portal, servants are voidlings.
Hextech Kuroi, with a giant clockwork, servants are bombs with legs.

Concept Explanation: Kuo-Yen Lo alias "Xypherous" was behind Orianna's work. And I'm amazingly impressed. Not only that he made a unique Concept. The way of seeing things is very different from others, and that makes him unique. I want to create a similiar unique concept and I'm trying this right now.
Kuroi is a plague based Warlock and Necromancer. He summons his servants, who can be easily destroyed, but they send forth explosions on the target. Kuroi may throw his coffin at a position where it can stay forever there and summon up to two Servants who attack the enemy. If played perfectly, Kuroi can inflict all of his plagues on the enemy target, only by covering his servants with it. His Ultimate will be likely like Lux's ultimate, which deals initially damage and more damage over seconds. Enemies who are plagued and are hit by the ultimate, will infest other enemy units near by.
Abilities
Kuroi's resource is Mana
**Passive "Septic Quarantine"**
Each plague on a enemy target shreds the magic resist for the duration of the plague. 5/10/15 reduction. In addition, Kuroi receives the magic resist taken for the duration.
If the enemy target has no magic resist to shred, the target receives 20/40/60 true damage over 4 seconds. This can't occur a second time within 15 seconds on the same target.
**Q(Single-Target, Plague, Damage Over Time) "Black Fever"**
Kuroi casts "Black Fever" on a target within 600 range. The target receives each second 20/35/50/65/80 (+0.20/0.23/0.25/0.27/0.30 AP) magic damage for 4 seconds. Subsequent casts of "Black Fever" on the same target will lower the mana cost by 20% and "Black Fever" will stack, but not deal additional damage. Only the duration is reset upon cast. Each stack counts as a Plague and can only stack up to 5 times on the same target. Enemy targets near by receive the same amount of stacks when infested.
If used on Servant, the Servant is infected for 4 seconds(Can stack). If the Servant dies and explodes, all targets within the range are infested.
Mana Cost: 55/75/80/95/105
Cooldown: 4/3.9/3.8/3.7/3.5 seconds (Cooldown Reduction will not work)
(Explanation: This is the first and the only basic ability that deals huge damage on tactical use. This ability is easy to dodge, but can guarantee heavy damage and a good use of outsmarting the enemy with it.)
**W(Summon) "Lemminvants" (Wordplay: Lemmings + Servants)**
If cast, the coffin seal opens and two Servants will appear. If the coffin is not placed, the Servants will appear behind Kuroi, where the coffin on his back is. At this point, the Servants will follow only Kuroi and his orders. Servants attack the same targets as Kuroi and comes back if no further actions were taken by Kuroi.
If the coffin stays on the ground and if the Servants are summoned, they attack all enemy units near by, but prefer enemy Champions. Servants can't leave 500 range around the coffin, they will return if they reached the maximum range.
Servants have the same stats as Kuroi, but can be destroyed by only one basic attack or single ability. However, AoE's will only take 1/3 of their life.
If Servants die, they will explode and deal to all targets in a 250 range 30/45/65/80/95 (0.15 AP) magic damage and will infest those targets with plagues, if the Servants had any.
Servants will exist for 4 minutes and only a maximum of 4 Servants at the same time are allowed. If cast even when 4 Servants are there, 2 of them will die immediately.
Mana Cost: 65/75/85/95/105
Cooldown: 14.5/13/12.5/11/10.5
(Explanation:Kuroi can summon up to 4 Servants around him, they will stay by his side and only attack targets of Kuroi's attacks. If summoned while the Coffin is away from Kuroi, the Servants will stay there and attack all enemy units near by. There is no danger in facing the Servants, as they deal no damage, but are only dangerous if they explode near by.)
**E(Totem - Slow - AoE) "Epidemic"**
Kuroi throws his Coffin in a 500 range on the ground. While the coffin lands on the ground at the target area, Kuroi releases a epidemic cloud 250 range around him and around the coffin for 3.5 seconds. The epidemic cloud slows enemy targets by 25% and refreshes the duration of all plagues on enemy targets within.
If the two epidemic cloud are used on the same place, the enemy targets receive doubled slow while being in two clouds at the same time.
The coffin can be anytime carried away when Kuroi leaves about 1000 range away from the Coffin or he he goes near and picks it up. In both cases, the Servants will meet up with Kuroi.
If the coffin is placed somewhere even when Servants are following Kuroi, they still stay at Kuroi and follow his orders. By summoning, 2 of 4 Servants of Kuroi will die and replaced at the coffin.
Mana Cost: 100 at all ranks
Cooldown: 18/16.5/15/13.5/12
(Explanation: This ability allows Kuroi to escape or increase the chance of chasing. It can also be used to strategically place diversion.)
**R(Long Range Damage Ability) "Disease Carrier"**
Kuroi casts a giant wyrm (http://shadowworld1.files.wordpress....1/11/wyrm2.jpg) from his palms in a direction of 1500 range. The wyrm flies in the form of a spiral (Helix) for 4 seconds and deals to all enemy Champions hit by 150/250/350 (+ 0.50 AP) magic damage. Enemy Champions who stays still within the ability will receive a plague that deals 100/150/200 (+0.10 AP) magic damage within 3 seconds.
In addition, upon first contact with "Disease Carrier"-Wyrm, the target will infest enemy units near by if the target has any plagues. The plague from "Disease Carrier" itself does not count.
Mana Cost: 100/150/200
Cooldown: 130/100/70 seconds
(Explanation: Kuroi deals massive damage upon impact and further damage on those who are not running away. Additionaly, plagues on the target hit by the Ultimate will infest enemy units near by.)
