Senna - The Vindicator

Lets somehow bring Senna back from the dead, being somewhat corrupted by the shadow isles magic that resides in Thresh's lantern.

So i found these concept art on Deviantart.com and immediately knew it had something to do with LoL, looking at the title of the art. I was excited to find that someone agrees that maybe it would be a big surprise to have her join the fields of justice.

Here's a link to her post on these concepts, but there are too many negative posts on it to really matter, and it was around 4 months ago.

http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/skin-champion-concepts/zs1GsBIX-senna-the-lanterns-light-revamped-from-senna-the-vindicator?comment=0000

Lets refresh her the idea.

What do you think about this concept art? Personally, i think it would be rather interesting.

For Lucian! Give them some love..

((P.S, Yes, if Riot wants to, they can make her and change the lore, no arguments over "Oh, this won't work it blah blah doesn't say so in lore bs" Yea, no. IT CAN BE CHANGED))

If anybody has any past threads that you have done, please post a link to it below so we can get some more info. The more we know, the better we can draw up a story for Senna and help create her image as a playable Champion in the far future.

I prefer the later art. She looks like a support/mage champion. Would be cool to have Lucian's wife as a champion who escaped the lantern and became a celestial or enlightened being. A light in the darkness.

Many possibilities for a kit and an awesome continuation for lore.

Just my Idea for a Senna Kit. Her AAs would be ranged and come from a ghostly version of Lucian's White pistol, but her spells are all themed after Shadow Isles Ghost powers. She would belong to the same Shadow Isles faction as Kalista I think in that she's not inherently evil but not exactly "nice" either

AA Range: 600

Senna the Light of Bean Side (Banshee): Concept a Mid Lane Shadow Isles Mage with offensive support capabilities like Annie or Vel. The spirit of Senna, finally broken by Thresh's torment becomes a broken shell of the woman she once was, still beautiful but now obsessed with ending all life and, dragging everyone into the afterlife, where Thresh can't reach them.

Passive: Mistress of the Damned: -While Senna is around, targets that die have a chance to drop their soul, Senna can absorb these souls to increase her strength, gaining bonus AP, and spell vamp for every soul she collects (Spell Vamp from passive is capped at 40%). -If Senna is killed while in the middle of a casting animation, the animation will ALWAYS finish

Q: Ghastly Wail: Senna screams in agony, sending her pain to all foes in a cone in front of her. Damaging and disorienting all targets struck for 2 seconds Damage: (70-150 +(55% AP)) X (100% + % of Senna's missing HP) (idea here is that her damage increases on her spells up to 2X their original damage based upon her HP, if she dies while casting a spell it will deal double damage) CD: 14-8 seconds Cost: 10% of her current HP Range: 650 Disorient A CC which alters the movement of your champion so that you move slightly slower (20%) and randomly in the direction of your mouse clicks. Your champion will start moving to an area within 500 Units of where you originally clicked while disoriented.

W: Will'O Wisps: Senna conjures 4 magical wisps around herself ready to scorch the souls from her foes. Senna can cast the ability again to send a wisp to a target area, burning foes along the path and exploding upon arrival in a 225 unit radius, setting the area ablaze for 2 seconds. If Ghastly Wail is cast while a fire is set the spell will echo through the fire causing an additional wail to originate from the fire. Targets can only be damaged by Ghastly Wail once, and if they are struck from a fire's wail will be burned instead of disoriented. Damage per Wisp: (30-80 damage +25% AP) X 100% + % of Senna's missing HP Burn Damage: 10 + 5% AP per second, standing in fire made by wisp will refresh this burn on a target, burning lasts for 2 seconds after being struck or leaving the flaming area CD: 12-8 seconds flat, 1.5 Internal CD between casting wisps. Wisps last on Senna for 12 seconds and the CD will not start until three wisps have been launched Cost: 12% Max HP Range: 600, fires can only burn while they are within 700 units of Senna

E: Ghost March: Senna rushes forwards with a cloud of spirits, any targets that Senna or her Ghosts pass through lose allied vision for 2 seconds. When she arrives at her location the ghosts violently disperse dealing damage to all targets in a 175 Unit radius around Senna. 2 Seconds after the charge Senna can return to her original position by reactivating the ability for 4 seconds. If Senna has an unlauched Will'O Wisps attached while casting this spell, targets hit by her dash will take half damage from each wisp and be set ablaze consuming the wisps. Damage: (75-175 + (6% of target's missing HP + 1% per 40 Souls collected) + 35% AP) X (100% + (% of Senna's Missing HP/2)) CD: 16 -12 Seconds Cost: 15% of Senna's Max HP Range: 550, must be within 700 units to return to starting location

R: Invitation to Undeath Senna sings a song of death, unleashing a skill shot projectile the binds a targeted enemy to her. Targeted enemy can't move more than 1200 units away from Senna for the duration of the ability. When the ability ends the target takes damage equal to 30%/50%/80% of the damage Senna did to them during that time. Max binding time 3 seconds + 1 second per 150 souls collected. While Senna has a target bound she cannot die but can be CCed and reduced to 0 health. Should Senna or her target cast a dash type ability in an attempt to break the range tether, the ability will result in no movement (as if they were dashing into a wall). Should an ability be cast upon Senna or her bound target that would knock either of them out of tether range, the OTHER unit is dragged along the distance of the knock back to maintain the tether. Senna and her target are always visible to each other while this ability is in effect. CD: 150-90 Seconds Cost: 20% of Senna's Max HP Range: 900 Speed: about the speed of a Charm

Anyway thats my idea for her, tell me what you think and if you think the numbers are a bit crazy

Edits Reduced some numbers, added cast ranges to all of her spells, and a speed for her ultimate, as well as some logistics for her ultimate and clarified some of my math for the ability scalings. She is meant to be played in a kinda Leblanc/Assassin Ahri style in that she lands her ult, hits u with all her spells then u die. Her abilites are all fairly short range (Annie's spells are all 625 range, Ahri Charm has 950 range, Leblanc dash has a 600 range with a 250 damage radius, Ashe AAs are 600 range). Added a max range that Senna can return to her start position for her E, and adjusted scalings on her E.

Her basic laning would be harass/waveclear with Q and W combos, while going in with her R, W, E, Q combo (use R to trap the target in close range and start wracking up the damage, W + E combo for maximum damage from the dash, and Q to slow/disorient target so you can AA them for more damage on the R pop)

Her support gameplay would focus more on using W + Q combos to harass while going in with E + R to trap in targets for her adc to kill. Her soul passive would help her stay alive through the spell vamp and allow her to build a bit tankier to facilitate her short range playstyle

Edits 2.0 Reduced radius of E again, don't want it to be able to hit more than 1-2 champions unless they are standing on top of each other, added area radius for W

I suggested an alternate timeline skin a while ago where Lucian would be replaced by Senna, but I like the idea of Senna as a separate champion too.

Audiomancy3/5/2015, 4:48:24 PM4 votes

She'd probably be pissed that Lucian stole her gun.

CupcakeTrap3/6/2015, 2:32:04 AM3 votes

I started a thread about Lucian's backstory here. Senna definitely came up as part of that discussion.

Perriwinkll3/6/2015, 3:58:19 AM3 votes

I really want this to be a thing.

Kaipop3/5/2015, 10:03:22 PM3 votes

It would be cool if she was a mid laner. OFC people would want her as a support with Lucian ADC but I think she would be better mid.

Valaran Nara3/5/2015, 5:13:23 PM2 votes

That moment she doesn't have any actual guns, so she just summons arcane magic to go "pew pew" with her finger tips.

BubbaDuke3/5/2015, 4:39:30 PM2 votes

I really like this idea. When I first saw Kalista I had hoped that she was Senna.

I like the idea that she was corrupted.

Tentacle Love3/5/2015, 11:45:17 PM2 votes

I'd rather see her appear as an alternate universe skin for lucian.

AquariusGine3/5/2015, 4:27:50 PM2 votes

Let her be an assassin, if she's a support the feminists will whine :P

Gunpoint3/6/2015, 1:43:53 AM2 votes

I thought it'd be cool if she was corrupted into a being of the shadow isles, the exact opposite of her former self. Could look something like the beings in Lucians splash art.

Cross my heart3/7/2015, 6:57:23 AM2 votes

would this mean that lucianLucian would lose one of his pistols? the only reason lucian uses two is because he lost senna to threshThresh . before that, senna and lucian each used one.

i want avarosa revived!

Sassmast3r3/6/2015, 7:14:00 AM2 votes

100% Agree. I think Kalista and Senna should share some sort of backstory with each other (maybe Senna revives from the lantern of Thresh, runs as fast as she can to escape, finds Kalista, begs Kalista for help in the eradication of Thresh, and Kalista agrees in exchange to submitting herself to Kalista?). I think Senna should be a support as well, however, the problem is that they JUST RELEASED ONE, so if they actually were to make her a support... she kinda wouldn't be released for a little while... I like the last picture where it shows her crying tears that look affected by the lantern, I think it really adds to her lore and should be used as her art. However, I also like the fact that the first picture gives her more of the "badass" personality I would expect her to have after being trapped in a lantern so long. Issue is, Lucian already is the epitome of badass, so I'm not entirely sure how well this would work - Two badasses seems to OP XD. Regardless, I really like your idea!!!!

Renaille3/5/2015, 3:39:53 PM2 votes

I'm pretty sure Senna is white.

Apollonir6609/11/2015, 7:56:27 PM1 votes

I think she will back in event related to Shadow isless as Threshs slave or somethink like that and she would be to Lucian like he didnt saved her that my concept and i really wanna see things going like that

JackyWrites3/5/2015, 5:01:52 PM1 votes

That last Image is so beautiful! I would play her in a heart beat, I see her as a mage really.

Kalista

We don't need any more black champions. Affirmative action has already been fulfilled by one broken ADC.

darapier173/6/2015, 2:32:22 PM1 votes

maybe give her ult a change between the two concept arts shown for lantern's light, kind of like elise or nidalee

Is awesome. The other ones just don't fit in with league. The first one gives her the image of a woman with inner strength. The others are too kind hearted looking.

StarBurnerqq3/8/2015, 9:29:18 PM1 votes

that's so awesome they should totally add it :)))

MAZZ1M04/5/2015, 4:59:54 PM1 votes

That is super badass. I would definitely be interested if this were a thing. A gunslinging support? Maybe a toplaner like gangplank? Or a jungler? Maybe she could have residual lantern powers and grants vision of whatever she shoots? Maybe she can act as a Thresh lantern and teammates can jump to her? That'd be cool -probabaly op, but cool.

Eraest973/5/2015, 3:35:34 PM1 votes

I think it would be cool to have Lucian's wife(I'm assuming that is who senna is) become a champion on the rift. In the lore she is still tied to thresh and what not. but now she is a playable champ
