[Champion Concepts] Cicero and Marvallo of the travelling circus
First off i would like to say i got my basic ideas from Thattipman on his champion ideas thread: http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/skin-champion-concepts/sEAqjoXP-champion-ideas-suggestions-many-many-champion-ideas-who-might-fit-in-the-summoners-rift
but without further ado, lets get into this
So this is actually about two champions, who are linked by lore the first is Cicero the entertainer, and the second is Marvallo the beast tamer. Let's start with cicero.
Cicero the entertainer
Lore Cicero was born and grew and grew up in Noxus. As a boy he never liked the harsh and brutal ways his people would act, he enjoyed the beauty and simplicity in life. During this time he met LeBlanc, and was fascinated by the idea of magic. He taught himself to do wondrous things, and when he grew up he became a street performer. He was popular in the beginning, however the people of Noxus got bored of his small parlor tricks and wanted to see something more brutal. This is the time that Draven, the glorious executioner was introduced. His... well.... glorious executions stole Cicero's customers, and he was left alone. He hated Draven for taking away his crowds, and his glory. He realised his talents were being wasted in the city, so he decided to move to Demacia, where his magic could be appreciated. On the road to Demacia, Cicero came across a strange man, who had three companions along with him. A tiger, a lion and an elephant. The man introduced himself as Marvallo, and Cicero asked where he was going. Marvallo said he was off to Noxus, after he had been shunned by Demacia. Cicero had told this man his story, and they both agreed that Decamia, along with Noxus, were not the right places for either of them. They decided that they would work together, Cicero with his entertainment and Marvallo with his mastery over beasts would travel Runeterra as entertainers. after several years they found themselves at the institute of war to entertain the summoners. However when cicero found out that Draven and leblanc had joined the league, he decided to join as well, to see if he had surpassed Leblanc's magical skill, and to finally have the chance to outshine Draven.
Champion info Cicero is an ap scaling mage who would play as the ap carry in the mid lane. He uses mana and has ranged auto attacks. He has alot of poke and harass, and an ultimate that can be helpful during any part of the game. He brings little cc to a fight however, but tons of damage. Appearance: (I am not a good artist so sorry for no images of any ideas, but its all in my head) He would wear a top hat, with a tuxedo and white gloves. he also has smoke that occasionally comes out from under his sleeves. personality: even more self centered than draven. need i say more.

Marvallo the beast tamer
Lore Marvallo was born and raised in demacia. He had always loved animals, and always had a way to calm and play with any animal he encountered. on his 20th birthday he set out to explore runeterra and meet animals he had only dreamed of. Upon returning to Demacia he had acquired two mystical whips, however he also returned with a tiger, lion and elephant. During his adventures he had found and tamed the beasts, and they became his friends. The tiger was Rajeej, the lion was Kefir and the elephant was named Kalu. During his time alone, he had become quite strong and joined the Demacian military. on the battlefield Rajeej, Kefir and Kalu were armored and fought along side him. He would hold his enemies still with his whips while they bit, tore, trampled and devoured them. Jarvan and other Demacians including with fiora and lux found this tactic too brutal, so they gave him a choice. He could get rid of his animals, or leave the demacian military. Unwilling to get rid of his friends, he left the military, however this was not the end. He was harassed in the streets of demacia due to his decision and eventually fled the city with his three friends. He would set out for noxus, where they would welcome his brutal fighting style along with his strength. Along the road he met a man named Cicero. (this is the same story as above). when they came to the institute of war, he joined along with his friend cicero, and he could finally show the demacians that they made a big mistake by losing him in their military.
Champion info
Marvallo is an ad scaling fighter who plays in the top lane. he uses mana and is melee ranged (longer than other melees, but slighty shorter than thresh). he uses his whips in most situations to deal damage, and his abilities are handy for catching and taming animals (but also killing), his ult can be devestating, turning a 5v5 into an 8v5. he also has sustain with his passive. he doesn't have any reliable escape, so he is susceptible to ganks or hard cc, but he can provide cc of his own, along with a handful of damage.

[R] The Tamed Beasts: Marvallo calls for Rajeej the tiger, Kefir the lion and Kalu the elephant, and they are summoned to the rift. Each has different stats and strengths. Rajeej: Rajeej deals true damage to enemies, however he has the least health, armor and magic resist of all three animals Kefir: Kefir does attack damage and has moderate health, armor and mr Kalu: deals very little magic damage, but has the most health, armor and mr. his auto attacks also slow. They have higher intelligence than minions. their target priorities go as follows: Champions, Structures, minions. Each of them attacks a random champion, and if there are three or more champions, they will all target different enemies. if there are 2, Rajeej will target one and Kefir and kalu will target the other, if there is one person, god help them. Rajeej ( and the other two if Rajeej is dead in order that i listed them) will target anybody who is snared by caught or has recently been hit by an enchanted whip.
