2 Lore: Som Num is well known by the toddlers of Demacia. The parents tell them that Som Num comes every time they sleep. He uses his magic to cause the children to fall asleep, have good dreams and that they can´t remember about anything what happened over night. But as they get older they don´t get visits from Som Num anymore. Because they are strong and brave enough to overcome the nightmares then.
3 A restless night
It was evening and the residents of a demacian household are slowly going to sleep. Zan the only child of the household couldn´t fall asleep and asked for good night stories. His mother sat down on the edge of his bed and began to tell stories about the actions of old demacian heroes and mysterious places. Her son was already asleep when she finished with telling. She pulled the blanket to his chin and kissed his forehead. Then she left the room.
A creature levitated into the room as it was deep in the night. The creature approached him until both faces were only centimeters away from each other. Nocturne began to dive into the dreams of the boy and create nightmares in it. Som Num, who can feel it if a kid is in danger, appeared out from nowhere. He created some magic creatures, which get into the dream of the boy through a portal.
The creatures began to heal the psychic state and to fight all the nightmares. Deep inside the dream they have found Nocturne and fought him. They defeated Nocturne und banned him from the dream. Som Num who waited in the room caught Nocturne and made sure that he won´t return in this room for the night. After the danger was banned he disappeared.
4 Ability:
Passive (Fit into a new day!): Allies in range enter a restful sleep, when they are out of combat and not moving. They recover health while sleeping. Alies who slept gain a little movement speed bonus.
Q (Sleepwalker): Som Num can dash through a dream portal for a short range in any direction. He let the enemies fall asleep in the targeted area for 1 second.

E (Sleep now!): Som Num command the dream creatures to chase the nearest enemy. If they were successfully, then the enemy falls asleep. Every dream creature which chased successfully let the enemy sleep for 0.5 seconds. The dream creatures have a huge speed boost which drops rapidly when they start to chase.
- Sleep now! has a range of 1000-2000 units. It can be casted without that an enemy is in the range.
- If no champion is in the range it switch the target to either an epic monster, which is in combat with your ally or a pet or a minion. The duration of the sleep for every dream creature is then 0.25 seconds.
R (Good Night): Som Num bewitches an area around him. He is rooted in the middle of the area during the spell. Allies and enemies fall asleep on this area. Allies get healed from good dreams and enemies get damage from nightmares. Som Num himself doesn´t sleep. Allies and enemies sleep for 2 seconds. Som Num gets a shield after they woke up for 3 seconds which value is based on the number of champs who slept.

Passive: Allies and Som Num don´t get a shield anymore. Instead those who slept are getting a speed boost or a slow. -> Allies can sleep to recover health and get a movement speed bonus now.
Q: Enemies fall now asleep instead of getting feared. Som Num creates a portal now only for himself which disappears after he dashed.
W: Dream creatures reduce now the taken damage instead of healing the ally.
