Tashnic, The Dragon Ninja
The True Tank Update
Tashnic was a dragon once. He was adored for centuries by his people. He had given them fire, but the world suddenly became cold. Fear and pain was carried in a strange cold draft and froze his people. Tashnic knew only true fire could melt the corrupted true ice: dark ice that had gripped the village. The only problem, however, was that he had forgotten how to breath true fire. He now travels for a frozen watcher to reteach him the anceint talent he lost. To do so, he has adopted human form and uses the fighting art of his people: the ninjas.
Tashnic is a vanguard who utilizes skill to force hard engages and stay on his enemies. He uses energy and his best position is top lane.
Passive-Ability, Flame Rush
Flame Rush causes Tashnic's next base ability to not use energy or go on cooldown. In addition, a percent of his tankiness adds to the damage of the ability. Flame Rush has a cooldown. It cools down faster while in a bush or smoke bomb. While his passive is off cooldown, he gains the appearance of being on fire.
Q-Ability, Dragon Sword
Upon activation Dragon Sword, Tashnic selects a small cone in the direction of his choice. After a visable .5 second delay, he catches the area on fire for 3 seconds, dealing damage to enemies in the range. Tashnic can freely move and cast abilities during this time. The damage goes right to left instead of outward, as if he is slashing from his right to his left.
W-Ability, Choking Flame
Upon activating Choking Flame, Tashnic releases a skill shot in the direction of his choice that stops at the first enemy hit. It teathers the enemy to him for up to 3 (+.2 per level) seconds. While the teather persists, Tashnic deals damage to and silences the unit. If the hit enemy basic attacks him, it reduces the duration by .75 seconds (up to 1.5 (+.1 per level)).
E-Ability, Smoke Bomb
Upon activating Smoke Bomb, Tashnic leaps a set distance in a selected direction. He is unstoppable while dashing. Within the distance, he selects a spot where he throws a smoke bomb as he passes over. Enemies in the spot the bomb landed receive damage. It leaves an area of smoke for 4 seconds that reduces enemy vision.
R-Ability, Ultimate, Ring of Fire
Upon activating Ring of Fire, Tashnic turns into a dragon as he starts channeling up to 2 seconds. As it channels, it gains range (enemies can always see the range as he channels). Also, hard crowd control and silences stop it. This does not stop abilities or movement. When it goes off, or you end it early, it damages all nearby enemies and flips them in orientation around you. (If an enemy is close to your right, their new position is close to you on your left. If they are far from you to your left, their new position is far from you on your right.)
