This is a semi-complete idea, if anyone likes this and would like to make a drawing or help embellish the backstory that would be neat. Let me know what you think of this and constructive criticism is welcome

(I haven't thought of a name yet) - The Courageous Rabbit Role: Support

Passive - Lucky foot Gains movement speed towards low health allies

Q - Defensive Kick Turns and kicks, knocking the enemy hit backwards.

W - Urgent Delivery Sprints in a straight line for 2 seconds. Allied champions in the path of the dash are picked up and carried to the end of the dash.

E - Twitchy Nose Smells the air in a circle, granting vision into bushes for 1 second

R - Rabbit Hole Burrows to an ally champion's location, upon emerging gives the ally a shield

Appearance: Rabbit legs, human torso and a rabbit face, medium build, wears a simple shirt and shorts with large side pockets

Backstory: (Name) is a messenger within a tribe of rabbit-people in the Vastaya. He and a friend were on a message run when they ran into a pack of wolves. (Name) beat back the wolves and carried him and his friend to safety.

His W seems pretty damn cancerous to your own team. also, some details on the ult channel? damage? scalings, etc? otherwise, a nice support idea (if a little overpowered!) kinda soraka, but less heals and more shen. i like it

A scurrying rabbit champion is actually a pretty cool idea. As it is now though, the kit is more a bunch of other kit's things put together. Tahm kench/thresh ally carry, shen ultimate, and Quinn W with a soraka passive. It's important to look for new things to bring to the table when designing a champion. The danger of a generalist, especially one with parts from several other defensive supports, is that if they're ever strong they will push other champions of that type out of viability. I personally think rather than having them just run around carrying people and providing general utility you should play up their ability to scurry around the battlefield, make their support playstyle more dynamic in a similar way to rakan (maybe downplaying the enchanter aspects) rather than just being a peel/reveal bot that steps on the toes of thresh and Tahm Kench.

Something that would be cool is delivering damage/shields with a spell. Gain movespeed or a dash after the initial cast. If the initial cast is on an ally the next cast on an enemy deals damage equal to a base + a % of your ally's AD, if the first cast is on an enemy slow them and shield yourself, and dashing to an ally grants a shield based on distance traveled.

As for lore, bear in mind your character is supposed to be a legend. Just being a cool guy who saved his friend from wolves this one time doesn't really differentiate him from any other rabbit vastaya.

There's a lot of potential in this idea that I feel is being missed, I hope you keep at it!
