1: Appearance and Description
https://wallpaperscraft.com/image/anime_girl_angel_wings_ball_24256_3840x2400.jpg
Sera is the prodigy of the Lightwings, a race of winged beings that live peacefully on the islands in the clouds, or at least shes supposed to be. She surely doesn't act like one at least. Shes very tricky and mischievous, always playing pranks on other Lightwings and always getting into trouble. She also doesn't really care about her prophecy that was placed on her, leading some to think shes actually not the prodigy for the Lightwings. A crude joker and a joke to some, she believes that her life as she knows it is good as it is.
2: Lore
Centuries ago the Lightwings were a dominant race. They were numerous, powerful, and dominant. They were the most respected and powerful race in all of Runeterra. However they didnt start out that way. At first the Lightwings were a wandering group of people, just trying to survive. The only thing those people had were the Orbs of Attainment, a gift from the Lightwings Gods, which was supposed to be given to the leader of the Lightwings. The Lightwings at this time werent a big group, so the leader of the Lightwings at the time wore it.
A long time later, The Lightwings helped overthrow 
Mordekaiser and his reign, and afterwards settled in the land by the Shurima desert. There they crowned a king and gave him the Orbs of Attainment. There they became the powerful empire they were. They watched as empires such as Shurima fall and Demacia rise. They were peaceful in all of this, not wanting to make alliances. However, they became worried as the Noxus empire rose near them. Soon Noxus began to take over the land around them. The king of the Lightwings at this time ordered his army to stand ready to defend there land. Unfortunately Noxus was too powerful, and most of the Lightwing population was slaughtered. The king of the Lightwings tried to escape, but was caught and murdered. The remaining Lightwings fled to the clouds, where they tried to rebuild there civilization in the skies. The Lightwings Gods sent a message to the remaining Lightwings saying: The orbs will reawaken when the rightful prodigy has come.
The Orbs of Attainment havent been touched in years, but just a few months ago, a little orphan girl named Sera wandered into the sacred room where they kept the orbs and it awakened, wrapping around her and lighting up. The Lightwings realized this was the prodigy the Gods told them about. The current king of the Lightwings held a ceremony which recognized Sera is the new wielder of the orbs and also adopted her as his own daughter. The Lightwings rejoiced over having the Orbs of Attainment with someone again.
Sera, however, was more of a trickster then a prodigy. She didnt want to be a prodigy at all, she wanted to be like the other Lightwings her age and fly around with nothing to worry about. Unlike them she had to go through training and learning, which she didnt enjoy at all. At times she just wanted to leave the orbs and just be normal. As she grew older she began to rebel her authority and neglect her learning, often skipping class to instead steal some things, or go pull a prank on a unsuspecting Lightwing instead of studying. The king became worried that the peoples prodigy wasnt living up to what the people expected. Many people began to doubt there Gods choosing of a wielder of the Orbs.
One day Sera was, as usual, skipping her training time, when she bumped right into 
Kayle. Realizing that Kayle and her were both winged creatures and were flying, she decided to strike up a conversation, That conversation lead to them talking about the League of Legends, and how Kayle was there to defeat evil and her sister, 
Morgana. This all sounded exciting and fun to Sera, not the justice and prejudice part, but the fighting part of the League. She immediately flew to the League to join. Now she spends her free time at the League, fighting not only because it helps her, but also because its really really fun.
"Classes? Eh who needs them anyway when you got the League?"
3: Role
Primary: Mage Secondary: Support
Sera is a paladin with lots of magical power to battle and to help her allies. If you havent seen my other entry into the CCOS check it out here. Basically a paladin is someone who can go solo in lane, but can also go support. Some good examples include Shen and Lulu (most played in this role) Natilus and Morgana (mostly stick to support but are also seen solo laning) Malphite and Zyra (usually seen solo laning but can also go support) and Taric (who is this.) She usually focuses on single target damage but sometimes she can do some aoe damage or hit multiple targets. Sera trades high ability power damage for her mobility and base health, and she can be easily picked up but a bit hard to play right.
4: Based stats
(All from level 1 - 18)
Heatlh: 460 - 1640 Health regen: 5.5 - 15 Mana: 400 - 1245 Mana regen: 6 - 12 Range: 600 Attack: 50 - 100 Attack Speed: 0.625 Armor: 20 - 90 Magic resistance: 30 Movement speed: 345
5: Kit
Passive: Gift from the skies:
This ability has 2 parts:
1: Sera's basic attacks are primarily ap damage instead of ad damage. Her auto attacks are 75% (3/4) ap damage and 25% (1/4) ad damage
Lets say that your basic attack does 80 damage. Your basic attacks would do 60 ap damage and 20 ad damage.
2: Sera carries the Orbs of Attainment around her. She carries 24 orbs that affect almost everything about her. Using a basic attack uses one orb. Using abilities also cost a certain amount of orbs. Sera regenerates one orb every 1.5 seconds
Additionally if she kills anything with a basic attack, she automatically regains the orb used.
Q: Spherical Barrage
Cost: 1 - 6 orbs
Cooldown: 7 seconds
Damage: 70 / 115 / 160 / 205 / 250
Slow: 2 seconds
Stun: 2 seconds
On first cast: Sera begins to charge, slowing herself. She charges up one orb every one second, up to six orbs (If you cant do the math, that means for all 6 orbs its a 7 second long charge).
On second cast: Sera releases all her charged orbs in a skillshot towards a certain direction. This will hit the first enemy it makes contact with and deal bonus effects based on orbs hit.
1 orb hitting an opponent: Nothing special, just take ability damage 2 orbs hitting an opponent: Deal ap damage and slows the target 3 orbs hitting an opponent: Deals ap damage, stuns the target, and applies the affect Lightwing Passage to the enemy.
Lightwing Passage: An enemy marked with breezy passage can be walked through by Sera and her allies. Additionally the rest of Seras orbs from her ability Spherical Barrage will go through this target, dealing more ap damage for every orb that goes through.
This means that she can stun two enemies in a row if you time this correctly
W: Orb of Judgment

Cooldown: 5 seconds between each orb
Sera casts an orb on an ally, opponent, or herself, giving them bonus effects.
On ally/herself: Gives ally or herself an orb that increases health regen for 15 seconds

Cooldown: 14/13/12/11/10 seconds
Range: 700
Sera leaps to a target location, giving her and others effects on landing.
On ally: dash to a target ally, giving you and that ally bonus movement speed based on the distance Sera traveled
On enemy: dash to a target enemy, dealing both ability and basic attack damage in an aoe around her and applying Lightwing Passage to all enemies hit. She then gains bonus attack speed based on the enemies she hit.

Shield: 20/40/60/80/100 (plus 20 for every champion hit)
Damage: 175/250/325
Cooldown: 100 seconds
Sera charges for 1 second before releasing all her orbs powers, dealing ap damage to everyone around her. The blast also had bonus effects depending on the number of orbs she had when this ability was cast.
1 - 8: Deals ap damage 9 - 16: Deals ap damage and gives Sera a shield based on enemy champions hit 17 - 23: Deals ap damage, slows all enemies, and gives Sera a shield based on enemy champions hit 24: Deals ap damage, slows all enemies, gives Sera a shield based on enemy champions hit, and gives all allies in the blast a shield half of Seras shield.
After this cast Sera is rooted in place for 3 more seconds and has no orbs. After this is finished the orbs come back to her, where she regains the orbs that make it all the way to her.
Enemy champions hit with an orb that is on the way back to Sera is stunned. However if an enemy is hit by an orb Sera will not regain that orb, and will have to wait for another one to regenerate.

7: Builds
IN MID LANE
Build full ap. Am i joking? No, her basic attacks and abiities do so much with all ap that you probably want to build full ap. Work with common stuff like deathcap zhonyas and ludens, but with Sera try to build something to keep you alive a bit longer, since shes a bit more squishy then most other mages.
Try:
IN SUPPORT
Build ap BUT WAIT, you're a support. Dont be a sona, so instead build support items ALONG with you're ap items. By support items i mean stuff like wards because duh, wards.
Try: 
8: Play styles:
PLAYING AS
IN MID:
Use your passive to deal tons of poke damage because of the ap scaling. With your Q only charge a full 7 if your trying to hit your opponent thats behind a minion. With your Q you get decent poke off with a slow or a stun, but try not to go to aggressive witht his as you sometimes just cast off all your basic attacks (because of the orbs passive) and screw yourself over. Your W can be used on the enemy to deal more damage, or yourself when your low on hp. This ability isnt as good as health pots. Remember, its regeneration, so if your going against a burst mage like leblanc and your trying to regenerate health under tower then your probably going to die. Try not to dive in with your E on an enemy. Instead use it when your lane gets ganked. Your E on an ally may not be as useful because its only you in lane but it can still be used to get out of places. Dont be afraid to use your R even if your just 1v1 against the enemy mid, it can still rekt them pretty hard ESPECIALLY if its a melee mid thats not yasuo because they are garenteed to get hit with your stun because they are next to you.
IN SUPPORT
Use your passive to deal tons of poke damage because of the ap scaling. With your Q make sure to decide if your going to cast orbs to hit 2 enemies or just one. If you can try to hit both the adc and the support in one. Like a bard Q this can set up stuff for your adc to do. Try not to be too agressive with it as if you use all of your orbs your enemy may go in on your adc and you cant really do much about it. Your W is perfect for healing your adc in battles as well as increasing your adc's damage output on enemies. With your E its not that useful to E to an ally unless your engaging or running, but its also not that good to charge into a group full of enemies as a squishy unless your ulting, so E wisely. Speaking or ulting your R is perfect for bot, because you can get you and your adc a shield and slow your enemies as they engage or run.
PLAYING AGAINST
IN MID
She does insane damage if she goes full ap and you cant really avoid that, so in fighting try to beat her before she can bet you (in terms of damage). When she starts to charge up your Q you may want to go in and poke her then, as this may cause her to release her orbs early. With her W if she goes in on you use some kind of CC to just trap and kill her. When she uses her R if you have a dash or something try to dodge the orbs coming back to her, as if you get stunned you may be dead soon after.
IN SUPPORT
With her passive she can deal some insane damage to you, so if your the support try to get someone tanky to tank her damage output and if your the adc stay away. With her Q try to not get that close together, as she could easily slow/stun both of you, setting up damage for her adc. Bring some CC or jumping power (and by that i mean a skill that can scare her like an alistar headbutt) that can surprise her while shes charging her Q. With her W its hard to catch up to her after shes Glided to an ally, as there movement speed has increased. However if you can get Sera and prevent any allies from getting in ranger for her to E to them then you're good to go. If she E's into your adc or your supp (depending on who your playing as) then CC them so she cant get out. With the R try to get a dash champ to dodge the stun from her ultimate. Remember she his rooted and silenced after casting this, so if you can jump on her then.
