Mirra, The Swamp Survivor

LORE: As a child, Mirra had a plethora of magical energy stored within her so strong that she couldn't control it. One night, a young woman appeared at the sorcerer's door. Assuming Mirra was asleep, the sorcerer cautiously opened the door. Watching from afar, Mirra could hear yelling and fighting amongst the strange woman and her "father". Seeing Mirra crouched within the darkness, the strange woman desperately cried Mirra's name out. Without a single moment of pause, the woman revealed that she was Mirra's sister and that when Mirra was a infant, she was kidnapped by the sorcerer after learning of her gifted powers at such a young age. In a futile attempt to hush the woman and cease her attempts of reaching Mirra, the sorcerer blindly struck the woman. With rapid reflexes, Mirra's sister blocked his attack and continued to engross the attention of the sorcerer while screaming at Mirra to run. With slight hesitation, Mirra ran outside only looking back once, to see the sight of her newly found sister falling and then lying still on the ground. Tears blinded her vision as she fled into the unknown until her legs could no longer carry her tiny body. Stopping at what seemed to be a swamp, Mirra created her own sanctuary, where she began honing her powers over the course of many years. Practicing with the swamp's native insects, Mirra learned to manipulate their sizes and control them in swarms to attack and defend. However, due to the mystical energy of the swamp itself, the power of the two fused to aggrandize Mirra's own powers, giving her full-length wings. After many years, Mirra emerged from the swamp with two things in mind - to one day find her family and to seek revenge on her abductor.

"It hurts to know nothing and only wonder." --Mirra

TL;DR: Insect Mage

Allies:
Vayne ( Vayne's parents died and Mirra never knew hers, but they both seek vengeance) Friends: Annie ( Mirra sees Annie as lucky person, growing up with her parents ) Skarner (Because bugs) Rivals: Elise ( Because spiders )

UPDATE #1: This is a general idea for the kit so bear with me since it's my first time.

STATISTICS Health 510 - 1768 Health Regen. 5.5 - 14.6 Mana 334 - 1184 Mana Regen. 6.0 - 19.6 Attack Damage 54 - 109 Attack Speed 0.625 (+0% - 41.2%) Armor 20 (+9.1) Magic Resist 30.0 (+0%) Attack Range: 575 570 Movement Speed: 340 330

Speed is equal to 5%/8%/11%/15% (levels 1/6/11/16) of Mirra's total speed.

Active: Creates a zone that attracts insects to feed. Anything marked within the zone takes additional damage based on the amount of stacks: 1 Stack: 10% 5% additional damage 2 Stacks: 15% 8% additional damage 3 Stacks: 20% 10% additional damage

Range: Cast Range 900/ Area Range 175 Mana Cost: 70/85/100/115/130 Cooldown: 10/9/8/7/6

The insect attacks depending on the amount of stacks: 1 Stack: All the insects target only the marked champion. If multiple champions are marked, the insects attack the closest ones. 2 Stacks: The insects provide a slow. 3 Stacks: The insects now double in size, armor/magic resist, attack speed.

Once an insect attacks, it won't stop chasing until: it reaches it's maximum range ( which it then dies ), the target champion loses all marks, the target champion is out of sight, or the insect is killed.

Hives last for up to 8 minutes and a total of 5 can only be on the field at once* Hives can be destroyed by basic attacks (3 for melee, 5 for ranged) and grant 10 gold*

If an enemy is knocked into the wall, they're stunned. If an enemy is knocked into another champion, the champion in front is stunned. Enemies hit with the first champion are slowed instead.

I would like some feedback on Mirra's kit and quotes! If anyone sees a problem, please don't be afraid to speak up! Just remember, this kit can't be overpowered. Every champion has their own weaknesses and strengths. Not to mention, the quotes bring the champion to life and defines who they are. I still need to design an insect that's perfect for the swamp and Mirra. Any ideas are appreciated! I also need to fully construct a full-body concept design for Mirra (Front and Back). Not only that, a new skin comes out along with champion releases, so let's design one! Comments, upvotes, and feedback are welcomed! Thank you!

Update #2 I've added the Concept Art for Mirra's front and back and two designs for her insects. We still need to decide on a name for those bugs. :D Also added the info on Mirra's insects. See any problems? Got an idea of your own? Don't hesitate to answer!

Update #3 Deleted the former bug concept, added the skin idea (Firefly Mirra), added icons, added the Insect Hive Concept. http://40.media.tumblr.com/5e5fc650eb64c6cb49b1f0fa3fd658ee/tumblr_ntd6avSxbM1udwrcto3_1280.jpg Like any of the insect designs? Tell me what you like and dislike. Comments, upvotes, and feedback are welcomed!

Update #4 Added the concept art for Firefly Mirra. Minor changes to Mirra's passive, quotes, and Mirra's concept art. http://40.media.tumblr.com/0619b0cd145dd2f18545fb101e6670d8/tumblr_nv03j6KIJr1udwrcto1_1280.jpg

Wow I really like the idea of this. It's different and I see potential in this idea. I hope you can create more concepts and continue to grow. It's amazing and way better than what I can do, haha. Great job! :)

Mirra, The Swamp's Wanderer? (Name suggestion) Question: Where is she from?(i.e Ionia, Piltover, Zaun)
Question: Is she Annie age? if not how old is she? Question: Is the kit supposed to be bug inspired or swamp inspired? Question: Will her kit involve her wings? If you have no Idea can it?

I feel like I have more questions I just don't know what they are. Anyway I really like this sorry about all these questions though, I get curious when I see something I like

MetalGreymon8/13/2015, 1:48:45 AM4 votes

Why is she named "Mirra" of all the names out there? o;

DDasani8/13/2015, 1:55:46 AM4 votes

Honestly, I love it! I can see a lot of work went into this, people like you is what Riot needs, creative, imaginative, and innovative people! Keep it up Fellow Leaguer

Why isn't Sona one of mirra's friends? sona doesn't know her parents...

Lilrebel9/4/2015, 8:08:26 PM2 votes

The only thing I have a problem with here is the fact that she has a % chance to miss autos, that brings me back to the days of Jax's dodge even though I would assume that would work differently and not be as OP, I think if u could change that to something like Increased MS or maybe very slight damage on hit seeing as the passive is talking about her wings it would work a bit better I just feel dodging autos would be to much. Given I could totally be horribly wrong, without that minor detail I think the idea is great and the champion concept is beautiful and well well thought out great job OP.

Brother Anthony9/5/2015, 4:12:09 AM2 votes

I really like the whole concept and idea! We haven't had a female flying champion for a while! Haha, jokes aside, I think the idea is great and just needs some fine tuning. With the meta shifting and what not, I'm curious to see what it'd be like if Mirra was introduced since there are teams running comps protecting the adc with a support mid nowadays. This might be a good pick to be able to offer more dmg and utility.

DKA959/5/2015, 8:04:22 AM2 votes

Great concept Dialogue could use work though she sounds too stiff and plain, rework her taunts and jokes and add other dialogue like movement attacking casting buying etc.

Breathful9/6/2015, 9:02:02 PM2 votes

This looks amazing! But I have questions: How does Mirra view some of the inhabitants (Yordles, Noxians, Demacians, Ionian, Etc.) of Valoran? Why does Mirra automatically run away after knowing the truth? Shouldn't she hesitate a bit? After all, a strange woman appears at your house at night, saying your life is a lie and you believe her over your (fake) father? Other champion concepts tie in other in-game champions into their lore, how come you chose not to? (But if you did chose to tie in an actual champion, would the sorcerer be Swain?) Last thing is, what was Mirra's thought process in running away? She could have ran all the way to Demacia to look for help, but instead hid in a swamp. Can you elaborate on why? I hope these questions aren't bothering you and I hope you can answer them all. I really love this concept. 👌👀 good stuff go౦ԁ sTuFf👌 thats ✔ some good👌👌sTufF right👌👌th 👌 ere

cool idea! but no skillshots? guess you should nerf her speed :P

TheFire909/11/2015, 2:46:59 AM2 votes

This seems like a great idea. Seems like there are so many things behind this and hope that you are able to do more like these for other things in the future :DDDDDDDDDDDdd

soybeanmilk9/19/2015, 4:16:49 AM2 votes

this is really interesting i hope you're able to create more ideas and concepts. i also hope you love doing what you love. really nice job <3

ReceKZ7Nwl9/13/2015, 11:45:00 AM2 votes

Wow, you must have worked really hard on this! Can you add quotes when Mirra respawns? plus, would it be better to change Mirra's bra thing to look like Quiet's from Metal Gear Solid? This way, she can tie it in the front :DD and are we gonna get the concept art for Firefly Mirra? I would really like to see it! Good luck too, i really like this design.

This is amazing. Good work! <3

The story is so amazing! I wish there were more details about her kit and what makes her unique but it's a start! I would like to see what you come up with later :) Keep up the creative thinking! P.S. Your drawing is so cool~i love the shading and the colors you used and also the work that you put into this champion.

SoftDuckie8/16/2015, 2:02:41 AM2 votes

The front and back of the concept art looks a bit masculine, but other than that it looks pretty decent. The insects look like they could be ratchet mock-up's of pokemon but they look cute-ish. I'd go with insect #2. Also, make the wings on Mirra's Classic Skin match the insect. Plus, you should polish up the sketches a bit. Are you going to make the icons for the moves? The passive for Mirra seems a bit weird, can you add something else to it and make it feel like a survivalist?Annie item 3068

julieplz9/3/2015, 10:25:09 PM2 votes

Wait, if she was raised in Noxus, why is she nice? Shouldn't she be merciless like Katarina or Darius? :\

This is great stuff, this definitely brings new mechanics and material to the already vast pool of champions. Visual concepts can be tweaked but they look great! Definitely bringing new stuff to the table c:
