Magic Swordsmen idea

Scyroan·2/17/2015, 11:17:15 PM·2 votes·321 views

I have a idea for a new champion. he is a lone swordsmen with a sword with magical runes on it giving it power. his lore is that he is bound to this sword in body and in soul but can part from it temporarily, if he is away from the sword for a long period of time he will die. he wanders the lands searching for the creator of the sword to either be combined with the sword or to be unbound by it. as for skin design I had the idea of him being about mid build but buff enough to carry a fairly large sword (maybe about 1/2 to 3/4 the size of garrens while visibly showing the runes) and for him to be generally calm about everything around him. any feedback is welcome and I am looking forward to what everyone has to say about it

I once had An Idea for a sword mage. though my Idea was more that the sword was but an implement. And that the magic was his own. The Idea for my sword mage (Zenger) was focused on a large sword Which he carried on his back. (think Dante in appearance) And he would swap between casting spells with his hands and Chaneling spells though his sword. (Think AP Jayce)

The problem I had was creating unique spells for the sword and caster stance. as well as developing a passive that used the two forms in concert.

I think the harder part of the equation is coming up with the spells.
