[Champion Concept] Nokk and Alba
Archive of Nokk and Alba's past designs.
----- v1.0 ----- Nokk the Angler and Alba the Bleeding Heart Health: 500 - 2000 Health Regen: 8 - 20 Range: 425 (125) Attack Damage: 50 - 110 Attack Speed: 0.5 (0.625) - 0.8 (1.0) Armor: 25 - 85 Magic Res: 30 - 30 Mov. Speed: 325 (350)
While Alba is active : Counts as Melee rather than Range Range takes a 300 penalty(125) Mov. Speed +25 (350) Summoner Spells are oriented on her Another Health Bar mirroring Nokk's is displayed next to Alba.
Resource - a Tension Gauge replaces Mana Bar. This resource starts at 0% and goes up to 100%. Auto Attacking increases Tension by 10%. Tension decreases at a rate of 1% per second. If the Tension Gauge hits 100% Nokk and Alba cannot Auto Attack for 2 seconds, the closest Bobber breaks, and Tension is reduced by 25% Nokk - Every 10% tension increase Auto Attack damage by 1%. Alba - Every 10% tension increase Attack Speed by 1%.
Passive - Nokk and Alba apply a debuff called 'Foul-Hooked' with auto attacks. Q - Cast: Passive - If a Bobber is active, exchange control of Nokk for Alba. Nokk fades into stealth over 5 seconds and his sight range is reduced by 50%. Damage delt directly to Nokk unstealths him. Active (-20% tension) (Recharge Time 15s) (1 charge per skill level) - Casts a 'Bobber' between 425 and 1275 from Nokk, or in an active Bobbers range as long as it is not within the minimum cast range. Bobbers outside of castable ranges break. W - Hookset: Active (+20% tension)(20-12 second CD) - 'Foul-Hooked' targets within range are dealt (damage+%AD) and pulled towards Nokk, but targets within 425 range to Nokk are knocked-up instead. If a Bobber is active they are pulled to the closest Bobber within its range. Alba is pulled towards the closest Bobber, and any enemies in this path are pulled with her and are debuffed with Foul-Hooked. E - Trolling: Toggle (+1% tension per second)- Friendly units around Alba have an increased movement speed. While this ability is active any Auto Attacks to Nokk, Alba or Bobbers causes all enemy units in a short range of them to 'Sleep' for 0.1 seconds. R - Bleeding Hearts Active (120-60 second CD) - Buff another friendly Champion with 'Bleeding Heart Bobber' in 'Cast' ranges. Alba is then pulled to them. The Buffed Champion counts as a bobber and auto attacks apply foul-hooked.
*Foul-Hooked debuff lasts for 5 second, and a Line is shown between the target and Nokk. If a Bobber is active the Line is between them and the target instead. Debuffed targets move 2% slower (increasing by 1% every 2 levels to a max of 10% at level 18) while moving away from Nokk or Bobbers within the range of 1275 units. If a debuffed Champion moves outside the 1275 range, the debuff is removed and movement speed is increased by the same percent, Tension is also increased by 10%. Every second a champion is debuffed with 'Foul-Hooked' the CD of Hookset is reduced by 1 second. *On casting the first active Bobber, Alba is thrown out and lands on the Bobber. A Line between Alba and the closest Bobber is visible to the Summoner, this is to show which direction will move when 'Hookset' is used. While Alba is outside of Bobber range she has a reduced movement speed and Tension builds by 1% every second. *Bobbers have 3 health. White Bobber with 425 range becomes a Red Bobber after 15 seconds that have a 850 range. Red Bobbers regain 1 health every 30 seconds. If a Bobber breaks Alba is pulled to the next closest Bobber. If no Bobbers are active Alba is pulled to Nokk, and the Summoner regains control over Nokk when she arrives. Alba can right-click to break a Bobber within attack range after a short channel.
- LORE - still working on it but the basic run down is... Nokk is a spirit that lives in the river, who makes a deal with a fisherman for his daughter Alba. Alba, out of depression, ends her life, but Nokk not willing to give up what he had just gotten ends up cutting out his own heart to revive her. After this they start to become what they are now. Nokk used the white water lily to try and cheer Alba up, and when she died her blood stained the lilies red (all Nix Rose style). After Alba was revived she stayed in her depressed state, and Nokk tries to remind her of her family by imitating how he saw her fathers profession.
- Appearance - Nokk is a spirit who adapts its body for survival. It does not have a gender but seems to act male. He uses temptation to survive, acting like an angler fish. He wears a large fishing hat, and uses his 'arm' as a fishing rod while imitating Alba's father. he also 'wears' a blanket made from the hair and fur of the animals that fell into the river. he made this 'blanket' a part of him and it acts as his hands, feet, or whatever kind of limb he needs. His face appears to be a horses skull, but he keeps it in the shadows. He franticly carved his chest open so he could used his own heart to revive Alba, giving it the appearance it has now. Alba sleeps in his chest while she is not active. not only does Nokk's heart will her to be there, but she also tries to stay warm. When Alba became a part of Nokk she started to change in ways that would help them survive. She acts as a fishing lure, tempting things to come close to her. Her arms turned into hooks to grasp at prey better. Her legs turned into a large silver fishing spoon with gold inlays to tempt the greedy to chase her. http://glaube.deviantart.com/art/Nokk-the-Angler-583150527 http://glaube.deviantart.com/art/Alba-The-Bleeding-Heart-583150980 I keep seeing Nokk dance being the 'Perfect Cast' from A Goofy movie, and If Alba is active she does Pinpcchio's 'I've Got No Strings'.
----- v1.1 ----- Nokk and Alba, the Anglers of the Bleeding Heart the Resourceless 'Pet' based control Support/Marksman that has very slow, long ranged auto attacks. with a debuffing passive that adds skill interaction, and can shield friendly champions with his own body while he rides on their back.

SPECIAL -Alba - She has HP, and sits inside of Nokk while inactive. she regains health while inactive. If she is active and Nokk is not 'attached', she will 'retreat' back to Nokk and become inactive. She cannot be targeted, damaged, or trigger 'Treble Hook' unless she is active. If she dies, she will 'retreat' to Nokk, who is dealt a small % of his max health to 'revive' Alba with 1 HP. She has a HIGH movement speed. Alba's Passive - Treble Hook: Alba does not auto attack, instead she deals physical damage and triggers on-hit effects when she comes into contact with a hostile unit. Alba also gains a very short but massive movement speed buff when Treble Hook is triggered. this has an internal cool down based on attack speed to trigger on the same enemy
-PASSIVE- Foul-Hooked : Enemys are debuffed when Nokk or Alba deal physical damage. Debuffed Units move away from Nokk at a slower rate. Q - Hookset : Nokk throws Alba to a target location. Alba is not active until she lands. Once Alba lands she will 'retreat' at an increased speed. Any enemy units already debuffed with 'Foul-Hooked' that come into contact with Alba, during her 'retreat', will be dragged for a short time. Sweepset (Attached) : If Nokk is attached, instead Alba will dash a short distance. Any enemy units already debuffed with 'Foul-Hooked' that come into contact with Alba, during this dash, will be dragged with her. W - Bleeding Heart (holds charges): Nokk throws a water lily 'Bobber' to a target location. This bobber has 3 HP. If Nokk attacks (auto attacks or Cloaking Cast) this bobber, or if Alba 'retreats'/dashes over it (which will also removes 1 HP), all enemy units in a small AoE will be slowed for a short time. If an enemy unit is already debuffed with 'Foul-Hooked' they will be stunned for half of the slow's duration. Alba can move outside her range limit from Nokk, if she is moving into range of a 'Bobber'. enemy champions can attack bobbers without triggering its effects. E - Cloaking Cast : Nokk quicky jumps a short distance dealing physical damage to minions or monsters in a medium sized AoE where he lands. If Nokk lands on a champion he attaches to them. While attached Nokk cannot control his movements, instead Alba becomes active and the player controls her movements within a limited range to Nokk. Nokk can reactivate this ability if it is on cooldown to drop off the champion he is attached to. If this ability is off cooldown he may use this ability as normal, detaching from the champion before he jumps *Friendly Champions (anywhere in the reticle) - This champion connot be targeted, or damaged. The champion and Nokk count as one unit but Nokk recieves all non-CC debuffs and damage. CC based debuffs affect both. Nokk heals this champion equal to any health he gains (healing, and health regen). *Enemy Champion (center of reticle) - Nokk cannot be targeted or auto attacked by this champion, but will detach if he is dealt a % of his max health (killing Alba will equal this %) or the champion becomes immune/untargetable. Nokk steals all health this champion would gain (healing, and health regen) and deal damage equal to all health he gains while attached. Nokk cannot auto attack this champion, and Alba cannot trigger 'Treble Hook' or 'Sweepset' on them. R - ???
----- v1.2 ----- Nokk and Alba, the Anglers of the Bleeding Heart Nokk has a really long melee range (350)
Appearance http://glaube.deviantart.com/art/Nokk-and-Alba-629711232 http://glaube.deviantart.com/art/Nokk-and-Alba-2-632847068 -Special- Alba has 5HP, a short vision range, very high movement speed (increasing with level/movement speed?), and 2 states, 'inactive' and 'in-play'. Alba can be affected as though she was a Champion, but only the first tick of a DoT will deal her damage. Alba will award 1 gold to the Enemy Champion that deal her damage, and 10 if she is killed. Inactive - She cannot be targeted or damaged by any source, and will regenerate HP (1 per 5, unless she is at 0HP, then it is 1 per 20). In-Play - She will deal physical damage (based on Auto Attack damage) on contact of a hostile unit, this effect cannot occur on the same target for a few seconds (based on attack speed). While in contact with a hostile unit she will gain a boost of movement speed. While in play she will retreat back to Nokk, and once she reaches him she will become Inactive. If killed she will lose vision, and the ability to deal damage on contact, while retreating back to Nokk.
Passive - Treble Hook - If Nokk or Alba deal physical damage to a Hostile Unit they are debuffed with 'Foul-Hooked' for a few seconds. Units suffering from this debuff move away from Nokk at a reduced speed. 'Foul-Hooked' is removed from units that move out of range.
Q - Cast (no CD): Nokk throws Alba In-Play. If Alba is In-Play 'Cast' becomes 'Hook-Set' Q - Hook-Set (Short CD): Alba dashes a short distance. If Alba dashes through a Hostile Unit debuffed with 'Foul-Hooked' they will take physical damage and be dragged with her. Alba has to have at least 1 HP to use 'Cast' or 'Hook-Set'
W - Water Lily (low CD, Medium recharge, Charges/Active per level) : Nokk throws a Lily into play. This Lily has 3HP, and can be damaged by Nokk, Alba (only able to damage Lilies during 'Hook-Set' dash), or enemy Champions. If the Lilies are damaged by Nokk or Alba they slow Hostile Units around it. If the Hostile Units are debuffed with 'Foul-Hooked' they are instead stunned for half the duration.
E - Cloaking Net (Medium-Long CD) : Nokk quickly jumps a short distance, dealing physical AoE damage to Non-Champions where he lands. If he lands on a Champion he will Attach to them. While attached Nokk loses control of his mobility, but will put Alba In-Play and control her movements (she will not retreat back to Nokk). Cloaking Net's CD will count down even if he is attached. If Cloaking Net is on CD, it can be reactivated to cause Nokk to drop off the Champion he is attached to. Friendly Champion - Nokk and this champion count as one Unit. Nokk will absorb all damage and Non-CC debuffs (IE DoTs, stat/damage debuffs) , but CC debuffs (IE slows, stuns, silences) will affect both. All health Nokk gains is applied to this Champion, unless they are at full health. Hostile Champion - Nokk and this Champion cannot Auto Attack, Skill Shot, or Target each other, but AoEs will act as normal. This Champion becomes immune to the 'Foul-Hooked' debuff while Nokk is attached. Nokk will steal a portion of any health this Champion gains (based off skill level and Health Regen). When Nokk gains health he will deal physical damage to this Champion equal to what he had just gained. Nokk can be CC'd but will stay attached to this Champion unless he is knocked up/back or pulled.
R - Bleeding Heart : ??? Maybe something about Nokk's horrible appearance, or Alba singing, just don't want to step on the toes of any other champion. Also don't know if more utility, damage, or survival is need for the Ult to round off the kit
-LORE - Nokk takes 'things' that fall into the water he resides in. Making them a part of him, and growing into something more twisted and horrifying as the moments pass. Starting off as little more than a flicker deep in the water. This flicker began gathering all that decided to join him in the dark abyss, slowly becoming more than it used to be, but was always so very cold, always left wanting. He continued to collect, but eventually he found something that he wanted but could not reach, a poor fisherman's daughter. This 'thing' would sing to her father, warming his soul as he struggled to provide for his family. Nokk wanted this, and while the fisherman was alone, Nokk approached him. Trying to tempt the fisherman with deals for his daughter, Alba. Out of desperation for the rest of his family, and despair at their inevitable fate if he did not take the deal, he finally agrees to surrender her. Immediately distraught on discovery of the deal, but she would go through it for her families well being. Cold and terrified of Nokk's ghastly appearance, she would sit on the rocks in the water crying as she lamented her situation. Unable to sing as he would demand because her heart would hurt so much. Frustrated, Nokk tried cheering her with all the things he could find that were once lost to the abyss. Giving her everything from fish bones, to precious treasures, but the only thing that could even get her to stop crying were the water lilies her father would bring home to her. Soon her father returned to the water's edge, regretting the deal he made, and called to Nokk. He was pleading for his daughters return, but Nokk refused any idea of giving up Alba. Thinking of how she would sing for the fisherman and not him, he lashed out at the fisherman pulling him deep into the water. He became just another thing that stepped into the water. As Nokk returned to Alba, he began pleading with Alba to sing, as her father did with him, and she realized the fate of her father. This sadness was more than she could bear, and she began searching for the the sharpest of the things Nokk had given her. With a single stab to her heart, she began to fade. Nokk, furious and unwilling to give up what was his, began carving out his own heart in an attempt to revive her, making her just another twisted part of him in the process. She is alive, but with every failed attempt Nokk gives to cheer he, the memories of the family she no longer has comes flooding back in like the abyss they live in.
