Ultimate skin concept: Dragon Acolyte Kayn

With the announcement of Kayn's new skin, I figured I would post an idea for an Ultimate Kayn skin: Dragon Acolyte.

Backstory and logic behind it that would make it fit into the dragon Universe: We already know that the dragons can corrupt people and slayers, as seen by Dragon Master Swain. Perhaps on swains expedition to find the souls of ancient wyrms, Kayn followed along with him. When swain became corrupt, they tried to get Kayn by luring him with a scythe containing the ancient souls which try to corrupt him. Normally this would corrupt any soul it touched, but knowing how strong Kayn's soul is, he fights against it.

Dragon Acolyte Kayn's base form would be that of a typical dragon slayer, but with the dragon corrupting parts of his body. The corrupting part of him would produce different particle effects and looks based off of the most recently spawned dragon.

When Kayn Transforms into Shadow assassin, he successfully fights off the dragon corruption, being able to successfully use the souls of the ancient wyrms to become the ultimate dragon slayer. His scythe turns into an epic dragon bone scythe that changes appearance and particle effects based off of the last spawned dragon. His armor also becomes dragon bone, also having a different appearance based on the last spawned dragon.

On the opposite spectrum, if Kayn takes the Darkin form, he becomes completely corrupted by the ancient souls. His appearance is that of the last previously spawned dragon, looking like a humanoid version of it. This means he can become a humanoid version of Infernal, Mountain, Ocean, Cloud, or most epic of all, the legendary Elder drake.

Propositions on how to make this all work

When a dragon spawns, it shows a timer above Kayn's character portrait. When the timer runs out, the particle effects added to base and Ultimate Dragon Slayer change automatically. When Kayn takes the Draconic form, he gets a UI tray similar to Elementalist Lux allowing him to select his form based off of the previously Killed dragons, meaning he can change back and forth between the different dragons that have spawned and been slain by either team in game while in base. This is also true for dragon slayer's armor

This is my skin idea. Like it? Dislike it? Think it can be improved? Tell me in the comments below!

Shoutout to the Kayn mains discord for helping me flesh out my idea, especially to RedHawk for the name!

I feel like you stole this from Smites new Bellona skin.

I've never seen gameplay or follow anything happening with smite. I originally thought of this as an epic 1350 skin without the elemental effects soon after Kayne's release.

Kayn.

And Bellonas new skin is their first "ultimate" skin.

In her game play, every ability leaves her with a different weapon set, her new skin changes her to a different dragon inspired armor for each ability.q
