{Champion Concept" Ussa: The Bandle Vandal
Character fantasy concept: We need more female Yordles! Also, a rival for Corki, Teemo and Veigar. Not to mention a champion that is built more for structure destruction rather than champion destruct.
Lore:
Most everyone in Runeterra knows of Bandle City has the Mothership. That's a silly question! Of course you do! You know when Viegar tried to steal the Mothership, something inside of it fell out? That would be the TROLOL: Terrain Rover Over Land or Lava. An exploration craft meant to explore whatever surfaces the Yordles of Bandle City might encounter when the Mothership reached it's destination. Well, no one really knew why it was there. Least I didn't! They didn't really tell normal yordle's what was inside. We just got to say, "yeah, someday you'll all get to ride in the Mothership!" Blah blah, Viegar tried stealing it, and the TROLOL fell out,
That's where I come in! I'm Ussa, I was your average yordle girl, into flowers and girly stuff. Having dinner with my parents, happy as can be when this big metal thing fell through the house and killed my mom! Dad was horrified, I cried for days. We complained to the goverment, only to get nothing but get some half hearted apologies. Dad grieved even more, feeling betrayed. He wouldn't talk to anyone. Even me! He died of loneliness after a few weeks. I might be sad, but I was also mad. So, I decided since the Government didn't want the TROLOL back just yet, then I could use to get revenge! Convincing a friend of mine that was hanging out in the junkyard to help me. we fixed the TROLOL into what you see before you lucky people today! Taking my revenge against Bandle City for being all stupid and lazy about the victims of Collateral Damage.
"Yeah! Run over everyone in my way!"
Passive: Rolling Stop
Ussa does not immediately stop after traveling for more than 600 units. Any any enemies that Ussa makes contact with after this travel period will take damage equal 5% of her movement speed and 10% of her current AD. Ussa can move through units freely, however can not damage them unless having traveled 600 units first since coming to a complete stop.
Idea: She's driving a tank! It's hard to stop, and will damage anything in her way after it gets going.
Q: Ram Jettison
Ussa fires the main cannon, launching the battering ram. Dealing 30/50/70/80/110 (+25% Armor) To the first enemy stuck with the ram, piercing through up to 750 units, dealing 5% less damage for every enemy hit by the projectile up to a min of 40% damage. 15 second cooldown all ranks. Mana Cost: 30/40/55/65/75
Idea: She needs something to help get some form of CS!
W: Boom Goes the Dynamite
Ussa packs the canon with an explosive charge. Adding a bonus to the next basic attack or Ram Jeettison used. Dealing an additional 10/30/50/70/90 (+40% MR) Damage. Cooldowns: 12/11/10/9/8/ seconds Mana: 50/60/70/80/90
Idea: It's an attack boost, pure and simple.
E: Siege Warfare
Toggle ability: Off: Ussa gains bonus 5+ Attack Damage per rank. On: Ussa gains 10% Attack Speed, 20% Attack Damage and 1% (+10%Armor) Armor Pentration against Turrets, Inhibitors and Nexus. At the cost of 20 Mana per attack. Toggle cooldown is 5 seconds.
Idea: This is her main form of Anti Structure of her skill kit. The Toggle on is constant but only affects buildings, not enemy units like minions or champions.
R: Barrel Roll
Ussa engages the overdrive to speed up. Gaining 50% of her current movement speed but only in a straight line. Activating the skill again (For free) Engages the emergency 90 degree turn system, which sends the TROLOL into spinning in the same direction, barreling. Dealing 300% of her passive to all non Champions, Turrets, Inhibitors or the Nexus that come in contact with her during the roll. Dealing 300/400/500 (+100% Armor +20% MR) Damage to the first enemy Champion, Turret, Inhibitor, or Nexus hit, causing Ussa to stop and be rooted for 3 seconds. Cooldown 90/75/60 seconds, Mana 100/150/200
Idea: Major damage, especially to structures, Champions can body block the spell to prevent her from bursting down a turret, inhibitor or nexus. Plus there's counterplay she does end up snaring herself for a long period. Forcing players to really pick and choose when she goes tumbling down a lane.

Useless Trivia and Skin ideas
Ussa is believe it or not, a melee champ. Animation for normal attacks are a quick swing of the turret with the battering ram. Critical hits are her extending it straight forward.
When Ussa uses Ram Jettison, you can see the barrel plug that extends the ram for her critical hits when fired.
Ussa's dance just has her spinning the tank and its turret in opposite directions.
Main Role: Tank. (She has no other purpose other than objective taking)
Ussa has skills that specifically target enemy turrets, inhibitors, and the nexus.
Champions can block her Barrel Roll ult.
TWO SKINS!!!
Riot Ussa: The TROLOL is fashioned against a police battering ram tank. Ussa is wearing a riot helmet. Link for visual reference.
Spooky Ussa: Makes reference to one the many Kid Chameleon power ups, Skulladigger. Ussa wears a skull mask and Kaiser helmet and the battering ram has a skull instead. Link for visual reference
Hates Teemo and Veigar with a passion, blaming them for the deaths of her parents. (Especially Teemo since he's part of the Scouts)
Thinks she's just better than Corki.
Doesn't really mind most the other yordles of the League.
