Dakurutsu, the boy hidden in shadows. A new champion idea!
Dakurutsu, the boy hidden in shadows. He is a Mage-Assassin-Support champion who relies on the ability power he contains. Daku meaning shadow in Japenese. Rutsu meaning roots in japanese. This champion relies a lot on mana and mana regen particularly because his abilities drain mana fast and if used properly, can be a very deadly weapon. This champion is very different and unique from the others because he is able to be used in many ways and can be very hard to ward off. (Yes more annoying than Teemo.) If you mind reading through this it would be a pleasure and you will not regret it. He is able to manipulate and become one with the shadows. He is used as bait often and can be annoying when close range champions are in play against him. Dakurutsu can be very tricky to use against champions with long range abilities.

Items, spells and such do not work when he is in Near Death Rage State.
Q: Shadow Embracement Activate: When casted on a enemy target, Dakurutsu will dash through all targets in the way of the target while slowing and scaring the minions for 2.5 seconds. The slow is determined by the level of the spell and ability power. He will still be targetable while dashing to the target. When he reaches the destination, he will rise from the ground, giving him Essence of the shadow . The target hit by the spell will not be able to use any escape summoner spells for 2 seconds while all the other abilities are in use. All targets hit by this spell while Dakurutsu will take magic damage and physical damage. (15% of ability power) (35% of physical damage).
Passive: While not being seen by enemies, mana regen and health regen is increased by a little (depends on the level of the ability).
Essence of the shadow: While using Shadow Embracement and reaching to your target, Dakurutsu will receive extra damage hit with basic attack (30% of ability power) and gain speed for 3.5 seconds.
W: Shadow Snatch (No cost for mana) Activate: Target champion: Dakurutsu shoots a shadow which travels towards the target (a skill shot), stealing health (depending on level of spell) mana from the enemy champion (+25% of ability power) and the shadow travels back to Dakurutsu, giving what was stolen with a 20 second cooldown.
Target minion: This will grab health from the target, stealing health (depending on level of spell) (+15% of ability power) and the shadow travels back to Dakurutsu, giving what was stolen with a 12 second cooldown.
Target monsters: This will hit the monster and coming back, giving Dakurutsu health and mana regen boost with a 10 second cooldown.
Target ward: This will hit the ward thats visible, turning over their ward into your ward but with half the time left before the ward disappears with a 60 second cooldown.
E: Shadow Cruising (30 second cooldown) Activate: This allows Dakurutsu to travel in a certain range into a bush but not through the wall.
Passive: Dakurutsu has 15% more speed/agility. (depending on level)
R: Complete Darkness (95 second cooldown) Activate: When casted, shadows will start to gather around Dakurutsu, forming a giant circle of shadows. Anyone in the range of the shadows will only see those who are also in the range of Complete Darkness. Anything outside is completely dark (like when you don't have a ward up.) This can easily be used to help other champions get away or force focusing on the tank. Both enemies and allies cannot see outside this ultimate, and all wards will not help. This ult will last for 8 seconds. All champions in the circle will lose mana and health slowly (depending on level of the spell) and half of the amounts taken will be fed to Dakurutsu. Allies in the range will gain speed, leaving the circle will immediately lose this speed. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=--=-=-=--=-=-=-=--=-=-=- Lore =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=--=-=-=--=-=-=-=--=-=-=- Dakurutsu grew up in Demacia. He had foster parents and he grew up with no memories of his parents. Their foster parents were FORCED to take care of Dakurutsu because they're close relatives. Dakurutsu constantly kept moving because the foster parents didn't want to take care of him or just had their kids of their own. Everyone around him treated him like a ghost for an unknown reason. They would try their best to ignore him. He soonly matured and learned that he had an extremely high latent ability which allows to talk to shadows and manipulate them. He could steal all sorts of goodies from people with the help of them. He decided that he would use his power and get admitted to the College Of Magic. Just to show his foster parents he really is worth something.
After being tested he saw this girl with a higher ability for magic. She could manipulated and use light magic. She was the complete oposite of him. She was always cheerful, filled with laughter and high spirited. Dakurutsu was none of those. Jealous got the best of him and he challenged her to a duel. Light vs Dark. After a long fight, it went no where. She backed off saying that it would be a waste of time to keep going. Dakurutsu finally found a purpose in life. To defeat this mage....
