[Champion Concept] Markus, Aspect of the Void
note: It is 3.30 am right now, and I'm about ready to fall asleep while typing, so before I lose what little progress I've made, I'm going to post and I'll edit later.
About this Concept - Despite not being a fan of any of the Targonian Aspects gameplay wise, their combined lores, in particular those of Leona and Diana, has me interested in why the Solari would cast Diana as a heretic so readily, particularly after one their own (Leona) learned of the Lunari as well. Since the Targonians are tied with Aurelion Sol and Aurelion Sol is tied with the Entity and the Void, I came to the following (possibly wrong) conclusion: the Solari are corrupted by the Void in some manner. This prompted to me to believe one of the more influential members of the Solari is actually actively working against Aurelion Sol and the Targonian Aspects. Of course, how could one challenge such power without similar power?
How the Flavor fits the Mechanics - Markus is quite a power-hungry individual thanks to both his own ambition and his involvement with the Void. To this effect, Megalomania (fill in the rest when I wake up)
Lore Blurb -
Abilities
Passive: Megalomania - Markus gains AP per each nearby enemy champion as long as there are no ally champions nearby as well. Additionally Markus gains stacks of Superiority per Champion takedown, permanently increasing his AP as well.
Q: Dark Implosion - (Area Skillshot) Markus causes a small area encompassing target point to collapse into nothingness for a short duration, dealing magic damage based on AP both upon cast and over the remainder the spell's duration. Enemies struck by the initial collapse are rooted for the remainder of the spell's duration.
W: Imposing Will - (Ranged Pass-Through Cone Skillshot) Markus demands nothing but complete subservience from his enemies, and with a single short-ranged shout he deals minor magic damage based on AP and taunts any champions hit for a short duration. If any champions are below a certain health threshold, they are charmed for a slightly longer duration instead.
E: Void's Embrace - (Self Toggle Aura) While this spell is active, Markus deals true damage to nearby enemies within a small area surrounding him over time. However, this much power affects him as well. (See Olaf's Reckless Swing for wording)
R: None Shall Remain - (Self Aura Buff+Debuff + Single Target) Markus marks enemy champions within a large range (25% of SR as Radius) with both True Sight and the Near-Sighted conditions. By activating this ability again on one of these enemies while they are still in range, he drags them to him, dealing a percentage of their max health as magic damage. If he kills that enemy champion within a certain duration, the cooldown of None Shall Remain refreshes. (note: probably doesn't need the first part)
