Lilith - the Scorned Demon Half-Ling (Champion Concept, enemy of Evelynn, on-hit, AP, COUNTER assass

Éthreal··2 votes·3,853 views

Hey guys! This is my champion concept; Lilith, the Scorned Demon Half-ling. Her intention is to be an, On-Hit, AP, counter assassin. She hunts those who torment and torture souls and she destroys them, in memory of her husband who was manipulated by Evelynn.

APPEARANCE Lilith is a "newborn" half demon, who wields a long dagger in one of her hands. She has demonic horns protruding from her skull, but they are minor. She is roughly 5'3 and has a slender, yet fit, build. Lilith also bares satyr like legs which were caused by forced transformation through her magical weapon that she wields, absorbing demonic energies from Evelynn; Causing the wielder, Lilith, to transform. Lilith bares true flame markings all over her body, which were given to her due to her rare, family bloodline. She is able to wield and manipulate fire magic, as well as channel it through weaponry. Her dagger is a weapon given to her by her father, an Ionian monk who had spent a lifetime designing a holy relic to absorb demonic energies. Lilith could also bare a typical demon's tail as well, ablaze of course.

Short Bio

_ Lilith had a loving husband, as well as a loving family. There wasn't anything Lilith wouldn't do to ensure their protection. She had always prayed that she would not have to use her family's bloodline inheritance; True flame incantations woven through the very fibers of Lilith's body. Lilith's father had sensed Lilith's concern for any forthcoming harm that could be done to her family. Her father was apart of an ancient, Ionian monk civilization, where protecting those from dark energies was their life long servitude. Her father bestowed Lilith with a magical dagger, blessed by their ancestors. This particular weapon was said to be able to siphon demonic energies, to and from organic creatures. It was originally created for holy rituals, attempting to remove spirits and dark entities from unwanting, human hosts. Given the ties Lilith's family has with this dagger, she is able to channel her true flame abilities through the weapon. Some nights passed, a few years later. Lilith's husband sauntered through their manor door, after a long night at his career. She fetched the tea on the stove, only to find her husband standing on the front lawn. He was talking to a woman, Lilith noticed. Something tingled inside of her. "This is the night." She whispers to herself, in fear. As she stared at the frugal woman, she begins to notice her features do not match her body type. There was almost a marionette look to this woman, as if someone was standing behind her, controlling her with strings. The woman caught Lilith's gaze and smiled; Lilith asked her husband if everything is alright. Lilith watches the demon, Evelynn, mouth her husband's words in his own voice, "Everything is going to be wonderful, my darling."_ Evelynn prepares her meal, tearing his desires from his mind and using them to torment the man. Lilith breaks off into the manor to equip herself with her dagger; By the time she returns, her husband lay on the ground, mutilated and cold. Lilith watches Evelynn slip into the shadows, but begins her pursuit. Lilith understands there is no time to mourn just yet, and chases Evelynn through the shadows. She dodges the terrain and clutter thrown at her, she does not let Evelynn shroud herself or escape. Eventually, Lilith chases her into a dead end alleyway. "It's just you and me, demon." Lilith spits. Evelynn stares at the glowing dagger Lilith carries in her hand and smirks. "You think a sharp piece of metal will take me down?" Evelynn says. "No..." Lilith states, looking into the dagger. "I think it will purge you." It was then that Lilith uses her blood line as power, and charges Evelynn. Evelynn's charms do not work on Lilith and she attempts to use a 'Last Caress' on Lilith, showing her true self and moving backwards. Lilith pushes through the intimidation and pierces the translucent Evelynn through the shoulder. Evelynn hisses and removes the dagger from her shoulder, letting it clatter to the ground, smoking and glowing colors of demonic energy. Evelynn uses this moment to flee the scene for good, leaving Lilith in the dark alone. Lilith drops to her knees in the only street light in the alleyway, above the dagger. Her hands cradle her face as she cries tears of agony and pain, mourning her husband. Lilith begins to think to herself, "This is what that wretched creature wants... My suffering..." Lilith calms herself. "Well if it's suffering she wants, she will feel every ounce of pain that I have and then some." Lilith moves towards the glowing dagger on the ground and picks it up. Something is different now, though. The dagger shoots jolts of intrusive energy through Lilith, causing her to writhe in pain. Her body slows and she begins to accept it, channeling the dagger's power through her instead of fighting it. The dagger leaks the remaining energy that Evelynn had bled onto it, into Lilith. She smiles as her body changes and her mind begins to speak to her. Lilith opens her eyes to find that she is no longer the widow who had lost everything. But she is now a scorned, half-demon who will go to Hell and back if it means ending all those who torment and torture innocent souls in their wake. With the devil himself in her veins, Lilith leaves the alleyway in search of creatures who will sate her dagger's thirst. Even if she has to become what she hates and fears most, she will rid this world of all the demons and all the ghosts, even if it means she is the last target to take out.

ABILITIES

'Mark of the Scorned' Passive: Whenever Lilith damages an enemy champion, they become 'marked of the scorned' for 4/5/6/7/8 seconds. Lilith gains true sight against targets who are under 'Mark of the Scorned' until the duration has ended, or the target dies. Lilith is also able to damage enemy champions under 'Mark of the Scorned' when they are untargetable, as if they were targetable.

'Become the Pyre' Costs Mana - Cooldown: 11/10/9/8/7 Q: Activate: Lilith conjures three, swirling fireballs around her location. These fireballs will deal bonus, on-hit, magic damage on her next few basic attacks towards any target enemy unit.

Re-cast: Lilith may recast this ability within a short amount of time, to instead send out each fireball towards a target location. These fireballs will instead deal magic damage to whatever enemy unit hit, and reduce their magic resistance by 7/9/11/13/15% for 2/4/6/8/10 seconds.

'Shadow Retrieve' Costs Mana - Cooldown: 20/18/16/14/12 W: Activate: Channel: Lilith brings her dagger forward and begins to channel, in a cone radius in front of her. All enemy units begin to receive max health, magic damage over time._ Enemy champions marked with 'Mark of the Scorned', will be pulled a short distance towards Lilith's current location. (Lilith is mobile during this channel; Using other abilities will automatically interrupt her channel, as well as crowd control abilities on her.)_

'Dark Pursuit' Costs Mana - Cooldown: 12/11/10/9/8 E: Activate: Lilith jumps towards a target location, dealing magic damage to all enemy units around her. Enemy champions marked with 'Mark of the Scorned', will be knocked back a short distance from Lilith's current location.

'Morbid Grasp' Costs Mana - Cooldown 60/57/54/51/48 R: Activate: Lilith stabs her dagger into the ground for 1.5 seconds, becoming stationary; Creating flame cages around all enemy champions marked with "Mark of the Scorned", and are dealt magic damage over time. (Cancelling this ult early will remove the damage over time and the flame cage.)

how is she a counter assassin though? How do you define a counter assassin?

I think her theme is a bit generic, unlike the demons LoL has so far.

She can see invisible units and target untargetable units? How many assassins do both of those things? Multiple cc moves, gap closers, she can root them in place, suck them back to you and the team, knock them back (like voli E displacement, so they cant move for a second), this whole kit is a 'counter' assassin because it retaliates to their kits. everything she does she can counter them... And there are only two demons in league. Evelynn and thresh. Darkin aren't actually demons; and their kits are all about sustain, and mobility fighter type kits. and the rest are void champions, sooo you tell me?

U miss understand the motive of my comment, I'm not challenging ur decision to title her a counter assassin. Since counter assassins are not a major champ design in lol I just wanted 2 kno ur thought process is all in how u went about designing and choosing her mechanics to do her job. I actually think it's important especially for divergent designs like this to have a design philosophy section since counter assassins aren't a defined thing yet, and what uv written right here wuld do just fine.

I do think the kit is done VERY well

In terms of theme is like to point out that while Thresh acts like one Riot doesn't classify him as one, he's just a messed up undead dude. Perhaps u meant to type Tahm. With recent lore Nocturn may count. When I say generic I mean she's basically like a normal demon we think of in America, there's nothing special or unique about her

The kit is unique and special, as is how uv done the lore as a demon halfing who can absorb another's energy, she's an anti-demon that's cool. But her kit is PURE anti assassin, the only part of her lore/ theme that comes across in the kit is the fire. You could argue that her dash represents her unrelenting pursuit, and her pull is like the energy siphon on her dagger, and that the cages in the ult are a demonic thing, but those aren't direct references to her theme, u could argue it tho. I think u could push the idea of anti demon further in her kit. U could easily do this by changing the wording or mechanics slightly.

Finally I think u should be more specific about how the cages in the ult work

Yeah, you've commented on my ideas quite a bit; You've been the most helpful out of everyone on the forums. I agree completely with everything you're saying. I was unaware that Vayne had the same lore, and I agree, she could have more depth. Usually my first drafts are just a shell of what I could do. I'm going to take her back to the drawing board and take into consideration everything you said. I want her to fit her thematic as well as her kit. I do need to specify on abilities as well, because simply, others don't see what I'm thinking, and that's my bad. There are elements in this kit that I feel a counter-assassin needs in the game, at least one.; That's what I'm trying to push for, honestly. We could completely scrap her lore, look and feel for all I care as long as these elements come into play somehow on a revised version. As far as the thought process: I just felt like a character like this was needed, and I drew from multiple other champions to give her an organic feel. I used one of these art works for an earlier champion concept that I had for a dragon that used demon energy, but I felt like it didn't work, so it has always been on the back of my mind, since. I want to do the 'use your own energy against you', thing. That's why she is anti-demonesque. Eventually, she becomes what he hates. But honestly, is there room for two demon slayers?

yes theres room for two demonslayers; done correctly as long as they unique enough LoL has multiple examples of champs that can share a similar theme and yet still very special in their own right, i think the path of anti-demon and absorbing/using opponents energy is a great unexplored niche that you can use.

What if, she could use an ability that redirects an enemy ability? An ult even

no thats not the vibe you have developed so far as I can infer. Additionally I should let you know that Riot is against abilities that redirect other abilities. For one thing i bet its pretty hard to code especially depending on the type of ability, but its also pretty toxic as it punishes the enemy play for using their ability. From what i can gather from what you have come up with so far Lilith's power is the type that absorbs either the strength directly from the enemy or the type of energy directly from the enemy, not so much from the abilities of the enemy

So, almost a stealing of stats? Much like trundle R?

Lilith steals the essence of another's being right? In that case it probably shouldn't be a catch all stat steal most likely it should be adaptive based on the enemies strongest stat: either AP or AD and she can have abilities that scale with them like Kai'sa which would play into how strategically Lilith players play and a pick their opponents to take down. MS is another stat that could be stolen and W seems like its a good ability for that. Finally because she's an assassin she probably would like having a way to make a clean get away, you could probably have one of abilities steal health in an execution manner, like the closer they are to dying the more HP she would steal.
