Story:

She was poor. She was beautiful. She was an artist. After her parents were murdered, Seilah’s only inheritance was her mother’s favored calligraphy brush. For years, she scrounged the streets, begging for food and money. She happened to come across a discarded scroll, Seilah took up her mother’s brush and attempted to paint using the ashes of an old fire and rain water she had collected. The more she drew, the better she became. Soon, she became the envy of the town. All the other artists wanted to know her secrets, wanted to know where her talent came from. One night, while she slept on a moth eaten quilt, an envious artist’s assistant had stolen her only prized possession; the calligraphy brush, believing it to have mystical powers. The next morning, when she found it missing, she wept like a lost child. The gods looked down upon the beautiful, wretched artist and felt sympathy for her. Together, they reclaimed her mother’s brush, reforged and crafted it with bristles made from the hairs of a pegasi. When she was presented with the divine gift, Seilah thanked them and could resume her painting.

Before too long, the men who had stolen Seilah’s brush, the ones who wanted to destroy her, came back to retake the instrument, and her life.
They chased her through the dimly lit streets. They nearly caught up to her, but she turned a corner and when they found her. Trapped, she unrolled her scroll and painted a large wolf. The men laughed at her and taunted her; but she merely smiled as her gaze darkened. The moment her brush lifted, the wolf was summoned. Large, with fur the color of the ink, the men stared in shock as the creature snarled and lunged forward; they never had time to scream.
When the beast walked up to it’s creator, Seilah cautiously reached out to touch it, but it turned back to ink.
In that moment, Seilah knew she would never again be alone, she would never be afraid.

Quotes she says: (still in progress)

“You will rue the day you went against me.”

“By my hand, your time will end.”

“This place, it’s so strange.”

Taunt: either: “We’ve drawn this out longer than necessary.” or “I’ve already written you off as a footnote.”

---------------------------

Auto Attack: throws balled up scrap paper

Passive Ability: After every 10 spell casts, Seilah’s filled sketchbook sells for 50 gold (60 second cooldown) Second passive: Ink Splotch: She doodles passively, and after every 30/25/20/15 (upgrades at levels 6/11/16) seconds or after every 6 spell casts (whichever comes first; has a 15 second cooldown), she has to replace her inkwell and dumps ink water on the floor in a small AoE around herself. If an enemy steps on the spilled ink, they are affected differently based on the most recent spell cast (or a random effect if passively doodling). After seven seconds, the ink dries up.

Q: She can store and place a max of 2/3/4/5/6 runes on the ground. These runes last for 60 seconds, have a 5 second cooldown in between casts, and provide a very small vision radius upon casting, for a few moments. Seilah generates a new rune every 40/35/30/25/20 seconds. When an enemy steps on a rune, they are revealed and silenced for a brief moment. If an ally steps on a rune, it heals them. Passive: ink splotch reveals all enemies that step in it.

W: Skillshot ability--doesn't affect allied minions, but can be stopped by enemy minions. She tosses pieces of rune-lined paper towards an enemy, snaring them. If tossed to an ally, it gives them a speed boost Passive: Ink splotch slows (up to two) champions for .5/.75/1/1.5 (upgrades at levels 6/11/16) seconds

E: Origin+trajectory skillshot ability (like Rumble’s ult) She conjures a line of ink on the floor, and when she is done, it creates a trail of fire that does increasingly more damage the longer they stay in it. Passive: Ink splotch explodes in a small radius, applying a magic damage DoT to those caught in the blast

R: Targeted ability--first cast conjures the father, second cast conjures the mother, maybe? Summons paper effigies of her dead parents, which last for 6/7/8 seconds (upgrades at levels 11 and 16.) She can place her father on an ally, hasting them and boosting attack damage; and her mother on an ally, giving them a shield that heals for a percentage of the target’s missing health(heals until the ultimate ends or the shield is broken)--If father is set on enemy, he damages them over time, healing Seilah for a percentage of the damage dealt, and if the mother is set on an enemy, she reveals and saps damage from the target, and transfers the stolen damage to increase the father’s DoT damage (but only so long as the parents remain within a certain distance of each other)

Nice support concept. Does the sketchbook automatically generate 50 gold or does sell mean you literally must go back to base (like rumble's delivery)? How would you control the Father and Mother separately? Also, the ultimate seems a bit strong but there's no numbers. Should her Q and W apply damage? Right now, only her E and R does damage. It seems strange for a skillshot to not have damage on it. Her Q seems a bit like Nidalee's traps. Are they revealed or stealthed?

I just thought of something. If you stick a root on the Q like the caitlyn trap and leave it near a few jhin traps, hilarity ensues.
