Harleigh, The Cunning Charmer. Champion Idea. Star Guardian Urgot start.
Harleigh, The Cunning Charmer
Harleigh centers around buffing his allies with his endearing words and turning enemies at a single bat of his lashes, or a twist of his fans.
Passive - Allure - Allies who have recently been healed or shielded by Harleigh receive a boost to their AP or AD respectively.
Q - Captivation - Harleigh twirls off the ground to throw a heavy gust along the floor knocking up enemies hit in a line and damaging them. Harleigh jumps backwards away from his casting point.
W - Endearment - Harleigh incites his ally with a few words, healing them and himself.
E - Temptation/Intoxication - Harleigh clings to an ally champion shielding them and becoming briefly invulnerable to damage (except AoE damage.) The ally becomes enchanted with Harleigh gaining a burst of movement speed. Harleigh may then cast Intoxication. E - Intoxication - Harleigh blows a kiss, a straight line skill shot that will slow and charm the first enemy champion hit. Forcing them to turn toward him.
R - It’s Showtime! - Harleigh summons a stage that he starts to dance on, the show being so alluring that a riot breaks out upon his enemies forcing them to auto attack each other for a brief period of time, becoming charmed in the process.
Harleigh is a more interactive support with a play style revolving around helping allies deal damage and disabling enemy ADCs that could potential hypercarry. I feel this is a more active and exciting support role giving big play opportunities and causing being out of position to be painful for those playing him, but leaving him open to being countered by well positioned ADC's.
Possible Harleigh’s voice lines: Casting Q - Sweeping them off their feet!! Casting W - Different voice lines depending on gender of ally casted on. On female champions: “You go girl!” “Hell hath no fury.” On male champions: “Just my type.” “You’ve got this, they’ve got nothing on you.” Casting E - “Go punish them!” Casting secondary E - “Can’t escape my grasp, sweetie.” Casting R - “You wanted an encore?!” “I am the main event!”
Storyline: Harleigh runs a tavern in Bilgewater, gathering up various information from the drunken filth that manage to catch his ear, or his glance. Harleigh will hopefully be the first openly gay male champion of the rift, showing no restraint at flirting with the various male combatants. Although, he shows a particular taste for Graves.
Skin release: Star Guardian. My ideal Harleigh release will be with the Star Guardian skin line. Alongside Star Guardians: Graves (their love story), Garen, Taric, and Urgot. Harleigh will originally be corrupted, fighting Graves at the start to distract him from Urgot, the leading villain of the Star Guardian universe with a capacity to corrupt gems. However, toward the end of the video it’s revealed Taric’s purity and Garen’s sense of Justice gives them the ability to revive and purify corrupted stars, restoring Harleigh’s status as they fight on against Urgot.
Star Guardian Urgot’s skin will have the corrupted sigil on his legs to symbolize his passive, and his ultimate will not be a chain churn, but instead a furnace for dark matter where he takes in star gems for corruption.
Special Interaction Graves: “There’s no rooms available in my Tavern, but you can come share mine.”
Anyway, that's all I've gotten to so far. I think the real masterpiece idea is the Star Guardian skin line, and I love the concept I've created for Urgot so far and hope to fully flesh out the idea of it later.
