Fire , air , ocean , mountain , and ones fortunate enough to mature to an elder drake , all of these are all a miraclulous life cycle in runaterra but there is more to these creatures' story in the more older times , the elemental dragons or what some call " the brood " were once Humanoid people that shape shift into dragons and there are far diverse types before . There was a great war concerning the Brood and a certain Entity that fears the potential of this dragon race the Elder fought hard but before succumbing to the Entity's wrath he managed to infuse the dying but persevering essence of the Whole brood to one child and catapults the child while encased in a strong resistant membrane cocoon in a far away ocean , the Elder proceeds to face the Entity as it prepares to kill him , filled with grief as his people was mercilessly slaughtered before his eyes , so he said to the glaring Entity " The brood will perish this day but there will come a time when a brave soul will face you using our very lineage as his weapon ! "


" 14 year Time skip " he's now 18 years old

after landing in the murky seas of bilgewater , a lone fisherman stumbled upon Myreu and took care of him becoming his Father figure , while growing up Myreu casually trained with his weapon of choice a one handed sword , he told his father about the voices in his head like a multitude of roars and screaming that gives him the feeling of revenge and a sense of duty in which his father tearfully responds that maybe it is time , and so his father fills him in with the whole story and how he found him , he also shows him the very membrane that was once encased him as he crashed in bilgewater Myreu breaks down in tears as he remembers that the dreams he once had were all visions allowed by the now deceased elder for him to witness , with a still clear voice in his head it whispered " we are the brood.. we are all connected... use our Lineage at your disposal because it is noble... in every step of the way we are with you " from this day on He seeks to hone his dragon powers instead of fully relying on blades or techniques as he isnt very fond of the way Bilgewater inhabitants fight and spends most of his time travelling coves and the outskirts of bilgewater to put down sea terrors and meditating , conversing with the brood deep inside his soul . by this time tales of Myreu is already popular and frequent in the taverns of bilgewater , calling him the " pitchblack drake " , " silver haired menace " , but the most popular of all is wizened old men and jolly rogers alike call him " The Bilge water dragon "

          CHAMPION ABILITIES  

Passive : " Persevering Brood "

while Being infused with the whole brood's essence Myreu is still but a learning hatchling without the guidance he so deserves , anyways whenever you cast an ability 3 times gain 18 - 51 based on level flat Health regen per second for 5 seconds

" Brood Strike " ( Q ) : Myreu Transforms his left arm into his dragon form while he swipes with it ( 370 crescent range in front of him ) dealing 100 /150 /200/250/300` physical damage + 25% of bonus attack damage also will heal 11/12/13/14/15% of your missing health if you atleast hit a champion with it when you are below 50% health Cooldown 12.5/11.5/10.5/9.5/8.5 sec cooldown

" Bilgewater Dragon goo " ( W ) : Myreu transforms his head into his dragon form and shoots a bioluminescent projectile ( 900 range ) that explodes on first unit hit dealing 90/120/150/180/210 magic damage and 3/5/7/9/11 % of the enemy's maximum health bathing them in biolumiscent goo for 3.5 secs , also an enemy unit affected by the goo deals 2/4/6/8/10 % less damage while damaging and fighting you

" Dragon Feint " ( E ) : Myreu channels into a stance ( can move while channeling but slowed for 15% - 25% while channeling further ) then dash ( 250 - 520 range based on channel time ) in a direction cleaving anyone in a small distance in front of you upon arrival dealing 65 /85/ 105/125/145 physical damage + 25% of bonus attack damage , also you gain 10% movement speed for 1 second , shortly 2 seconds after the initial slash Myreu grows a dragon tail and does a 450 range crescent dragon Tail swipe in front of him dealing 4/7 /10/13/16 % of the enemy unit's Current health and stuns them for 1 second , Cooldown 15 / 14 / 13 / 12 / 11 sec

" Awakening " ( R ) : ( this ability has a 135/125/105 sec cooldown ) Myreu awakens to his full dragon form ! he will enjoy various effects and gain a form ending skill when the duration ends , but because of the sheer essence of the brood inside of him he will learn stronger dragons from the genome as you level up this ability in game , lets get to it

Lvl 6 : Bioluminescent Dragon form ( A . K . A bilgewater dragon ) instanly shifts to a nasty and pitchblack looking dragon for 12.5 seconds , you start crawling on all fours , you gain extra 100 range on your basic attack and other abilities , + 250 maximum health and the ability to enjoy the effects of " persevering Brood " for the whole duration . at the last split second before your dragon form ends you will automatically be enveloped in pitch black organic cocoon for 2.5 seconds gaining 55% damage reduction but you wont be able to do anything while in this state and enemies may damage you and basic attack you , you are also immune to CC during this time , then after the duration the cocoon explodes in a 650 circular radius around you with lethal bioluminescence around you damaging everyone affected by 35% of all the soaked up damage you took while inside the cocoon and slowing enemies by 25% for 1.25 seconds at the same time .

lvl 11 : Emperor Dragon form . transforms into the Regal and powerful Emperor dragon of the Wyvern genome for 14.5 seconds , you start flying as movement animation while in this form , gain 100 extra range on your basic attack and other abilities , + 350 health and the ability to enjoy the effects of " persevering brood " for the whole duration , also your abilities will deal 10% more damage during this time . at the last split second before your dragon form ends you will turn into a miniature pristine dragon tear that will slowly descend to the ground ( you are untargertable during this time unless you move your champ ) in the span of 1.5 seconds if you move your champ before the droplet hits the ground it will distrupt the channel sending a massive shockwave around you ( 650 circlular range ) as you turn back to your normal form knocking back affected enemy units around you by ( 300 range ) , though if you finish the channel the dragon tear hits the ground and ripples ( 500 area of effect ) turning you back to normal and instantly healing you and affected allies by 220 + 12 % of missing health

lvl 16 : " Lord of Dragon " form , Transforms into the phantasmal , sacred , revered pinnacle dragon form of the Brood that even the Elder himself wasnt able or destined to achieve ,you start crawling in all fours you now have a crescent shining yellowish horn now bulkier and moderately bigger frame than your Bioluminescent form and you now have a bright purple-ish hue in your skin you crouch tall and proud knowing deep in your heart that you did not fail the Brood and its lineage which has always been and destined to be yours , gain 125 extra range on your basic attack and other abilities , 16 seconds form duration , + 500 health + 15 % more max HP + 10% damage reduction also your " E " tail swipe will now stun for 1.5 seconds , at the last split second before your form ends you slam the ground so powerful that in creates a magnetic vacuum ( 600 range circular aoe ) that instantly draws affected ally champs behind you and as you explode back to your normal form giving you and all your allies a 5 second 350 shield that gives all of you 5% damage reduction until the end of the shield duration or as long as the shield isnt depleted to 0 before it expires .


playing as Myreu , playing him top lane is rewarding and fitting but for some he can be a beefy tanky and unique jungler he likes to duel and demoralize laners slowly but surely with his regen potential and he can be addicting to play as because come on :p who wouldnt want to play as a nice and helpful tanky dragon boi that has the guidance of the whole brood including his elder inside his head ? and also from the beginning until the end of the game you slowly learn everything that the brood has in store for you :D and thats a pretty nice and inspiring experience , well atleast he will never be lonely again xD

for runes and builds i recommend resolve as primary preferebly undying grasp and sorcery or inspiration as secondary , you can ditch your dorans shield for a dorans blade if you're gutsy enough and know how to weave and take advantage of his passive , and start making your way for a item 3071 rush then followed by a resistance boots and a item 3065 that would be your core and everything goes from there , you can either go full tank with item 3075 and item 3143 or you can buy a item 3812 and item 3026 instead :D anyways it was a blast :D thanks guys and i hope you will comment and analyze as i lovingly spent time making this champ concept ~ i will end this to 1 more time skip short finale story ^^ enjoy .


" 5 year time skip , Brood and Bones "

in some desolate and eventful place north east of mount targon you can see a now 23 years old Myreu facing off against an unsettling sinister Entity , Myreu isnt a man of vengeance nor is he driven by selfish sentimental revenge for the brood , all he has now is the right amount of confidence , peace of mind and resolve to put an end to an entity with such malicious and envious intent that caused it to wipe out the Brood that doesnt even plan to harm it . As Myreu prepares to transform into his Lord of Dragons form , he shows a small smirk in his face as his pristine whitish blue eyes gleams towards the entity , remembering the dragon elder's quote from inside his head , " The brood will perish this day but there will come a time when a brave soul will face you using our very lineage as his weapon ! " - Dragon Brood elder

I love what you're trying to do here with the ultimate, but there's such a thing as too much complexity. Bioluminescence is a very cool concept on its own, and I think just trying to play around that, and forgoing the form changes, would better suit your purposes anyway. You're talking someone trying to prove themselves. There's not much proof there if he's gaining all his power from an ancient horde (er...Brood...) of Eragon-style dead dragons.

I enjoy the rest of your kit. I think this is easily a great concept if you just focus on Myreu's personal identity in his ultimate more than his brood's influence.

On the same page as Mr. Reyn.

The ultimate is far too complex. Why? Because it changes fundamentally with each rank. The 1st rank is honestly probably the best one for originality. Being the frontline kind of champion means that any friendly aoe is centered on the enemy team, and that forces them to get closer to the enemy. Regardless this makes leveling up R purely situational, which is never a good thing.

His other abilities are fine, just lacking in good ad/ap ratios. So building anything outside of pure tank items is basically inting. All he gets is 50% bonus ad ratio across 4 abilities. So building FULL AD(six 80 ad items for 480 total) would give him 240 bonus damage? Too many flat numbers and percentages, so add in stronger ratios to give him build flexibility.

I'd agree with everyone here to tweak the ult due to it's complexity.

I'm assuming you are going for a pretty beefy tank with two basic abilities that heal with one being enhanced for his full ult duration and having a damage reduction mechanic. Having that strong of a tank feel makes me concerned about two of his abilities scaling based on the enemies maximum hp and missing hp. Even though his primary damage ability has low scaling, those damage percentages are pretty crazy. If Myreu hit an enemy tank that had 3000 hp with his W late game, then he would do 500 magic damage, which is a pretty big chunk of damage concerning Myreu is focused as a tank. That doesn't even consider the damage reduction after the fact.

I like the concept of a top laner that is mythical in evolution and the abilities support that pretty well.

Also, just to make it easier for us, please keep the lore bits out of your ability descriptions for clarity. If you wanted to italicize the lore parts so we know what is lore and what is actually impacting the game, then that'd be fine too. Keep going with it! A bilgewater dragon sounds super BA and I would looove to see it in game Braum

I feel like 25% of bonus AD is very little scaling.
