Pterano was found by Ezreal as he was hunting for treasure in the uncharted Fyrone Flats, and he stumbled upon a magnificent find. He found a large fossil that he soon brought to Shurima to get appraised by Zilean. Obsessed with time, Zilean revived the fossil, which turned out to be a beautiful black, winged Dinosaur with strange markings along its body. Zilean instantly recognized the symbols from the race that destroyed his home, Urtistan. Zilean, wanting to destroy the demon, Zilean tried to destroy it. However, Ezreal intervened, seeing as though it was one of his most prized finds... and his "daughter". The Dinosaur, clueless of its savage past and unsure of its future, the creature found joy living in the present with her two daddies. Ezreal brought Pterana to the Field of Justice, while he searched for more of her kind in Fyrone.

I wanted to make a support/tank champion that could play solo top, bottom support, and possibly AP mid. She is a Melee champion (150 Range), who scratches enemies with her claws.

Health: 435 (+90) Health Regen: 6.5 (+0.6) Mana: 250 (+50) Mana Regen: 6.5 (+0.6) Range: 150 (Melee) Attack Damage: 45 (+3) Attack Speed: .625 (+1.5%) Armor: 18 (+3.5) Magic Resistance: 30 (+1.25) Movement Speed: 325

Passive: Pterana's abilities mark her targets with Endangered. This reduce the target's defenses (5/10/15 Armor and 5/10/15 Magic Resist) for 3 seconds.

Q: Dinabite: Pterana's next basic attack bites her target that does physical damage equal to her AD, plus, it heals her for (50% AP). This resets her autoattack. (Cost: 50/45/40/35/30 Mana)

W: Sinkhole: Pterana slams the ground and slows all nearby enemies within a (400 radius) sinkhole that slows enemies (20/30/40/50%) and deals magic damage (20/30/40/50/60% AP) on impact. (Cost: 70 Mana)

E: Guardian's Shout: Pterana heals all nearby allied champions for 30 / 40 / 50 / 60 / 70 (+ 20% AP) and silences enemies for 1/1.25/1.5/1.75/2 seconds

R: Sauring: Pterana grabs an enemy (150 Range) and takes them to the skies, the enemy will not be able to attack for this duration. She can then travel a long distance (5400 Range) to slam the foe into the ground doing 200 / 300 / 400 physical damage (+100% AP). (Cost: 120 Mana)

I wanted to do three things with this champion.

  1. I wanted to introduce more lore with this Champion, including Ezreal being a father with Zilean.
  2. I wanted to introduce another race, the one that destroyed Urtistan. This could lead to several different dinosaurs stomping the rift with different powers and different stories.
  3. I wanted to introduce a female champion that wasn't a woman. Of course, there are female champions that turn into animals, insects, etc. I didn't want a champion that didn't have big boobs, but rather, I wanted a champion that didn't look human at all.

What do you think about this champion? I will edit it if you leave comments below. Please Upvote!

I love the idea of introducing a dinosaur race!

Woah....That's so....Gnarly Gnar. I can see Gnar being a part in her lore.

As for the abilities....I think it's best if I talk about them.

Q: Very useful early game, but it kinda gets OP when heading into late game. I mean, we're talking about a 90% AP Heal, say if she has about 500 Ability Power, she can heal about 450 of Health! That's kinda alot, considering it resets when autoattacking. Change those AP values to make them equal.

W: Very nice way to slow opponents. No change needed.

E: Hmm, something about this seems to be wonky. I mean, both the allied champion and the enemy champion have to be in the range of the silence and the heal to work. I see it as a potential OP spell during team fights, while Laning, it is pretty useful. Maybe change the range on that to make it more fair for champions.

R: So, I failed to see an definite time when the enemy heads back to the ground if Pterana doesn't activate the ability again. Does this mean that the enemy champion will stay in the air if she doesn't reactivate the ability. Wayy to broken for League, in my opinion. And, the range and damage on this is massive! I mean, in teamfights, Ptetana can rip essential targets from teams and Isolate them in a position suitable to their fancy. Your team can destroy the other team indefinitely. Change up some values to make it equal.

Overall, good work! This champion is a great idea, and with a little improvement, I think it can go far. Oh, have you heard of the September Champion Concept Contest! I suggest you join! Also, I'm doing some special interactions with other fellow champions to my newly made champion, Julius! Perhaps I can include some champion interactions with yours! Reply back, and good job! :)
