[Champion Concept] Saloxa, the God of Calamity
So here is another concept i was working on at the same time as doing the finishing touches on Visco, if you like this concept feel free to check out some of my other concepts here.
#Introduction & Appearance
Saloxa (pronounced Sa-lo-sha) is a mage with high burst power. She fits most comfortably in Mid, due to her lack of reliable hard CC she most likely would not be a Support. Saloxa abilities have one thing in common and that is raw damage, not to just one person but to many. All of her abilities are skillshots that need to be timed and aimed properly, except for her ultimate which is targetted.
Saloxa wears a white silk scarf like cloth only covering her chest and a white priest skirt that ends half way up her thigh and a very long sash that hangs down to just above her ankles. She does not wear shoes but around her ankles is a gold bangle that wraps around and ends in a large oval gem resting on top of her feet, the same is with her wrists and hands. She wears a crown of light with a larger version of the oval gem just above her brow. Her eyes glow white and she has no pupil or iris. Around her neck is 3 gold necklaces all with a gem in them. A bright aura surrounds her and is in the shape of 2 pairs of wings on her back. Her hair is gold/blonde and flows like in water.
#Lore
There was a small village at the bottom of a volcano thought to be inactive, this village was one of peace and love. The religion of this village believed in a very old god who was said to be a human transformed by the catastrophes that surrounded their people into a god. This god saved its people and created this village at the base of a volcano which it made its home. Believing their ancient god would protect them the people lived in an ignorance bliss with no fear of the outside world.
One day this bliss was disrupted by war, battles raged across the land and powerful magic ripped apart the man and land alike, and all were consumed by its effects. Even the peaceful village began to feel its effects for the magic and reawakened the dormant volcano. Soon their uneasiness became fear, fear became panic, and panic became mass hysteria. Fearing the worst the village leader and head priest got together and came up with a plan, they came to the conclusion this was another cycle of their religion, a new chapter and the solution was the same.
Thus the plan to create a god was born, wanting to be able to limit and control the newly born god they decided a small child would be the best candidate. There was one child who was known in the village to have a weak constitution, they were the perfect choice. That child was Saloxa, when they came for her, her parents tried to tell them no but they were slain in the name of their religion right in front of Saloxa. Dragged sobbing and crying into the church she was laid down onto the altar as the priests gathered in a circle around her. Saloxa could not understand the words they sang but soon she began to notice their effects. Her body began to burn and the intense pain soon sent her mind reeling deep into itself, the thing it came to rest on was the image of her slain parents.
It was then that her body exploded, when the head priest and village head came to they saw what he had created, a Goddess. They began to beg to her to save their people like she was created for. It seemed she understood what they were saying and she reached her hand towards he sky, tears in his eyes the head priest began to sing in joy. This joy was cut short as a look of pure hate crossed Saloxa's face and she swung her hand down, killing all the priests, the village head, and destroying the entire church. The head priest finally realized his mistake, he had not created a savior he had created their doom.
Saloxa rose out of the ruined church and using her other worldly powers she disintegrated the village and everyone in it in a flash of burning hot energy. Then she flew to the raging war and decimated both sides without mercy killing every last soldier in a matter of seconds. Looking down at their bodies she decided her rage could not be quelled until this entire continent was destroyed. Flying over to the volcano, which was home to her predecessor, she caused it to erupt larger then it ever had before, sinking the entire continent in a sea of lava. Descending to her throne of lava she realized her rage could not be stopped until the whole world shared the same fate. The God of Calamity had been born

#Explanations
So she isnt very complicated, the only thing i know for sure is she sounds OP right? well i dont think so :D
Her Passive is kind of a fun lil mini-game and also introduces some strategy other then spamming spells.
Her Q is similar to Brands W but with less of a radius, the Calamity version is similar to Viktors laser in how you aim it.
The W is just a simple skillshot in target direction, it is also an execute so using it correctly is important. The Calamity version is pretty cool, it does 1/4 of the damage done to the enemy hit including the amount of damage it did based on their life :D
I like the R, makes her feel super powerful hehe basically she channels then sends out a wave of energy in a 900 radius around her marking any enemy champs it hits. Those champs take bonus damage from Saloxa only, she can also reactivate it do deal damage to every enemy marked. There is no dodging the meteor, like flashing or dashing, but things that make you untargetable, such as Zhonya or Liss ult, can block it as well as spellshields, like Veil or Sivir. The fun of it is, lets say you mark 2 people then they flash away :( now you cant take advantage of the bonus damage so you decide to rain down hell, well by this time those two have made it to their team... well BAM! their entire team is bombarded by 2 meteors :D. Or another fun example would be, you know they are doing baron so you pop your ult and it marks them all then you hit it again... BAM! they just got hit by like 5 meteors and baron just took a crap ton of damage, maybe you stole or maybe you just made sure they couldnt have it :D

#Skins
Demon Saloxa - She would be wearing very similar clothes except black and covered in red symbols. Her hands would be charred black and clawed like a monster, the same with her feet. Her eyes would be the color of fire and around her eyes would be molten. Two large twisted horns would come out on either side of her forehead. Her Q would summon a dragon demon which spews out fire, her W would send out a demonic ball surrounded by black lightning, her E would be a swirling dark energy, her ult would summon demonic flaming swords from the sky.
So how do you like it? Tell me below in the comments section, just a side note though the damages, ratios, cooldowns, mana costs, and stats can all be changed easily so please focus more on the actual abilities and how they mesh with the concept :D thanks.
