[Champion Concept] Noe – an unnatural existence
CCOS Outreach
Overview:
Noe is an unnatural creature, what in his very ancient genes is a reptile-like species, his life changed once his genes was hacked by a runehacker. He became on the top of living-beings, he can evolve himself by spawning eggs and reborn. Every time he reborn, he gets more adaptable to the environment.
Abilities:
Passive - Beyond evolution Noe transfers his soul to new body once his egg is hatched. Eggs that grew in different area would hatch with different forms of body and abilities.
There are three different forms in the following:
Noe - Mystery in mist (Hatched area: River) Reborn in river makes Noe good at taking advantage around water. His attack now reduce enemies vision with mist for 1.2s (Cool down: 30s ) Offense ■■■■□□□□□□ Defense ■■□□□□□□□□ Control ■■■■■■■□□□ Mobility ■■■■■■■■□□
Noe - Sucker for pain (Hatched area: Opponent's Jungle) The opponent's jungle is so dangerous and offensive that he reborn with outstanding battle abilities. His attack now cause target to bleed for 2.5s. Offense ■■■■■■■■□□ Defense ■■□□□□□□□□ Control ■■■■□□□□□□ Mobility ■■■■■■■■□□
Noe - Oracle guardian (Hatched area: Base, only available after one of your inhibitors is destroyed) Now Noe knows that world is not peaceful anymore, all he wants to do is to defend what he remains. Offense ■■□□□□□□□□ Defense ■■■■■■■■□□ Control ■■■■□□□□□□ Mobility ■■■■□□□□□□
Q - Dance of bone Noe slashes with his weapon in a direction. Whenever noe uses Q, he gains 1 charge, after he gained 3 charges, his Q now transform to Q2.
Q2 - Bone strike Noe hurls his weapon, penetrate units before hitting wall, once the weapon hits a wall, it bounce back(like refraction), and stun the first unit it hit.(no longer penetrate target)
(Noe - Oracle guardian) His Q now heals himself based on target's Attack/Magic Attack.
W - Evolve Spawn an egg on the ground, it would turn matured after 240s. Cast W on a growing egg to hold/put down the egg, cast W on a matured egg to hatch it.
Passive - ** When holding the egg, the egg stop growing and Noe cannot attack. Moving an egg to different area would decrease the grew time in half. Enemy champions get a buff that increase hp, mp regeneration by destroying his egg. If Noe is killed by enemy nearby a matured egg, the egg will hatch at the same time, Noe gain 40% of his Maximum HP, and gain buff "_Before Rhapsody**_"(Gain 15% of life steal and 35% of attack speed for 4s).
E - Wildly Flip Flips towards a location in short range, become untargetable while flipping, the next attack will steal target speed by 15% for 1.5s
(Noe - Mystery in mist) ** - Flexible reacts** Noe surrounds himself with mist, he gain 40% of speed for 1.6s, block the next incoming ability. If an ability is blocked, Noe quickly strike through the target location.
R - Rhapsody
Before Rhapsody (Available when Noe(basic form) is in combat nearby his eggs.) Noe gain 15% of life steal and 35% of attack speed for 4s to protect his eggs.
Rhapsody - Mystery in mist Create a big swirl that pull enemies into the middle of it (move slower while getting out of it, move faster while getting in of it.) The swirl becomes bigger if it's in river.
Rhapsody - Sucker for pain Gain 35% attack speed, once he slain an enemy champion, Noe disappear and become untargetable for 1.5s, then now he can choose to land on an target champion and reduce target speed for 35%for 0.7s.
Rhapsody - Oracle guardian Noe curls up himself and guards the nearby allies for 5s, building them shield (from 0 to 35% of their Maximum HP), also block all enemy projectiles with his body. (Can't move while curling up.)
Gameplay:
With his various characteristic, the best role to him is a supportive jungler.
Strategies:
In teamwork, players have to analyze which role that they are lacking of, then choose to evolve into different form to support their team.
Imagine that blue team decided to get baron buff by 25 minutes, that means by 25 minutes there will be a fierce fighting between mid lane and top lane. Now, player decide to spawn and egg on the river so that after few minutes he might get a chance to evolve into the form "Noe - Mystery in mist" that makes him become better at fighting on river. But also, at the same time, he needs to hide and protect his egg from being destroy by enemies.
Then, their team come up with a brilliant idea. They decided to start a teamfight for dragon by 15 minutes. No matter which team get the dragon buff, once the dragon is gone, the probability of the enemy team to scout the dragon camp would significant reduce. Nothing is better than hide egg in a place that almost nobody would enter.
Once this strategy works, Noe will be able to evolve himself and give their team a huge support.
Tips for protecting eggs:
If your enemy jungler is too aggressive that you can’t protect your eggs. Try to spawn egg in your jungle first, after it becomes matured, use W to move it to enemy jungle/ River, and hide it in a brush that nobody would pass through. Although the grew time would decrease in half. You will only need to protect it for 120s until it’s matured again. Use your R - Before Rhapsody wisely when you’re protecting your egg.
Lore:
A hunter's journal —
Few days ago, I found a weird creature near a huge fallen dead tree. I shoot and killed it immediately, then brought its corpse home.
The next day, I saw it at the exactly same place again. But it's skin looked a little bit different. It gazed at me for seconds, like it had already known who I am.
I did pulled the trigger, but he stood still indifferently, which terrified me. I decided to cage it then make some research about it.
What I found just subverted the whole biology This strange creature could evolve itself in a very short time by respawning. It could even control its evolution.
But things didn't go well, after a cold night, it escaped without leaving any trace. Since he was exhausted, I believe that it won't go too far.

Facts about Noe:
-
Part of his face is covered with blue texture.
-
Sometimes he wears mask to cover his face so that he can blend into humans.
-
He's not good at speaking and he rarely speaks, but he has impressive mobility.
-
His bone weapon is made from his previous corpse.
-
One of his favorite things to do is to silently observe humans from far away. To him, human is an extremely beautiful species.
-
During the escape, he keeps evolving himself to try to find a way to escape. He becomes more and more like a human, he once disguised himself as a normal person and finally got out of the place.
Skin idea:
"Albino Noe"
Thanks for taking the time to look at my concept. This is my first post, as you might see, I’m not very good at English. I tried my best to write this concept down because I believe this is a unique one, at least I’m confident about it :). I created this concept 2 years ago, I have been facing many difficulties of creating this concept. I finally did it, it gives me a sense of achievement.
Actually, there is a completed story of this champion, but it’s really hard for me to write it down in English. If there’s any question about this concept, just ask me, I’ll be glad to introduce you more about it!
If I made any mistake in English, please don’t hesitate to let me know. I’m learning English by using it. I hope you enjoyed the read!
