Art by moscovia on DA (Cookie to anybody who can figure out the character illustrated in the picture right off the bat.)

Name: Con·cer·to kənˈCHerdō/ noun noun: concerto; plural noun: concerti; plural noun: concertos a musical composition for a solo instrument or instruments accompanied by an orchestra, especially one conceived on a relatively large scale. Origin early 18th century: Italian, from concertare ‘harmonize.’

Or replace Director with Conductor.. Either way i'm sure it could fit. Somebody's recent thread quickly gave me the idea for this champion.. Not that i haven't sat on it.. On and off.. Multiple times.. Giving up and coming back to it over and over again. It's a conflicting emotion for me to think about since Sona very obviously exists already.

Here's the deal. What i want to see is a champion who directs and controls musical instruments with either his Violin, and/or with a Baton. Mostly Classical instruments. As in they are they are living, literal weapons. Imagine the instruments idly dancing around him like a Beauty and the Beast reference, him in his Directors uniform, the black and white ones that you typically see on people at major classical concerts, with the bow/ties, gloves, the 2 tailed coat, all nice and tidy and clean. Look like they came from Great Britain. ~~ Gotta love dem sexy butlers..~~ -cough- (No offense). He can have long hair and have a mask on or something.. His hands will be clasped behind his back for the majority or the time he stands idle. The picture above is just a reference.

I don't know anything about adding up the numbers, so ima just leave that stuff to Riot when it comes to terms of playing with stats. I imagine him being a mage/adc. So you can imagine his weak points and strengths along those lines.

His Abilities are a WIP. If you have any suggestions, pls let me know and i will repost this idea later on in the future with an update. I WILL take everything into consideration. This includes suggestions to anything else you see fit.

His demeanor is very laid back. always humming multiple, subtle tunes.. His interests is always in learning about a tragic story, so he can compose them into song full of all the strongest feelings champions must have had to live through, both good, or bad. If champion he runs into has no major backround, he will pity them.

With this in mind, his own backround is a mystery, and also a WIP Also looking for suggestions in considering this. (PLS DO NOT TRY TO COMPARE HIM TO Sona, NOR GIVE HIM A BACKROUND TRYING TO RELATE HIM TO HER.) If that is what you so desire anyway, i MAY or MAY NOT mention something that involves.. "children who have shown signs of rare, deep musical talent, and have been given artifacts of music with strong, magical properties that can only be used by these few chosen. But beware, as it has been said some of these artifacts have grown to have a mind of their own."

Sound familiar? This is a reference to several other champions.

Friends with Jhin. Enemy of Sona. I know you mentioned not giving any sort of background relating to Sona, but it just makes sense. (Jhin came to mind from the Phantom of the Opera sort of feel that he has, Sona because what classical conductor would like to hear electronica?)

Nice Idea, but I have a major complaint: Does he add anything new to the game? Music Sona Directing and controlling magic objects Orianna Azir Artsy ♦Jhin♦
