[Champion Concept] Owylglass, The Dream Catcher

Hey board peeps :D I’m here with a concept that is still in the progress of being created. It’s an idea that has been spooking through my mind for some time now and I’d really like to have your opinions on it. The idea was to work the Tricksters Glass (remember, from blackmarket brawlers) into a champion. I decided to build it into the whimsical nature of a Fea, creating a being from Yordle folklore, based on real life trickster folktales like Rumplestiltskin (Repelsteeltje in my native tongue) and the Sandman (Klaas Vaak). Folklore has been a major inspiration for many of my concepts, so much that I have stringed together multiple concepts with the same theme into my “Storybook Series”, including champions such as; Sham’a, The Candle-Maker (based on spirits of the hearth and the jinn), Chayon, The Shepherd of the Afterlife (based on Psychopomps, which are guides to the dead) and Ethea, The Primordial Spirit (based on apocalypse stories) and some others.

I want you to keep in mind that this is all a work in progress and thus everything is subject to change. I will add more lore and more quotes as well as Gameplay ideas when I have time to create them. In the mean time, if you have any ideas, tips or complaints, feel free to name them. Your feedback is really valuable to me and my process of creating champions :)

Thanks in advance, Candurill.

Kit:

-Work in Progress-

Passive, Shifting Coat: Owylglass has another bar with buttons above his health bar. This bar features all champions that are in the game. Pushing a button will allow Owylglass to transform into any allied or enemy champion in game and gain their attack range and basic abilities. He will still have access to his own ultimate and the abilities will scale with his own stats. To all other players (including allies) he will look like the champion he is impersonating, including the health bar colour and name. Enemies can target him however, and towers are not fooled by the illusion. His health bar will seem like the one of the mimicked champion and damage will seemingly be calculated with their max health and defensive stats. His normal health bar will still be hit as if nothing happened, it just won’t be seen by other champions.
The effect will last for 60 seconds, unless it is broken earlier. Upon deactivation, this passive will be on cooldown for another 60 seconds. The effect will end when the duration runs out, Owylglass falls below 35% of his own max health or when the passive is deactivated manually.

Q, Dream Eater: Enemy cast: Owylglass absorbs a dream from a target enemy unit and damages it for 70 / 115 / 160 / 205 / 250 (+ 55% AP) in magic damage. When used on an enemy under the effect of Sleep, the enemy will be dealt an additional 25% of his AP as bonus magic damage and Owylglass will heal himself for 35% of the damage dealt. Allied cast: Owylglass absorbs an allied champions nightmare, removing any negative effect (Slows, Stuns, DoT, etc.) and applying it to himself in stead with a reduced duration (-10% / -20% / -30% / -40% / -50%). Does not work on displacement effects (Knock up/Knock back).

W, Sleeping Sand: Active: Owylglass throws special sleeping sand in a cone in a target direction, dealing 70 / 110 / 150 / 190 / 230 (+ 50% AP) to all targets hit. Enemy champions hit by this ability will become Drowsy. Drowsy champions are slowed by 5% / 12.5% / 15% / 17.5% / 20% every second, up to 2 seconds, after which they fall asleep for 2 seconds. Sleeping champions are effectively stunned, but this effect cannot be Cleansed or dispelled by any means. Drowsy however, can be removed and will not grow into the stun if done so.

E, Sleepwalk: Active: Owylglass and a target allied champion break out of, and becomes immune to, any timed effect (Slows, Stuns, DoT, HoT, Shields, Etc.) for 3 seconds and gain 20% / 25% / 30% / 35% / 40% movement speed. After this duration, any effect that was interrupted or resisted with this ability will resume as if nothing happened. Does not work on displacement effects (Knock up/Knock back).

R, Lucid Dream: Cooldown: 110 / 90 / 70 seconds Cost: Passive: Whenever Owylglass impersonates an enemy champion and participates in the takedown of another enemy champion (not the one being impersonated) he gains a Dream. Every stack of Dreams will grant him a permanent 1,5% / 2,5% / 3,5% AP in Magic Damage upon his "Dream Eater" ability, up to a maximum bonus of 25%. He will lose a stack if the enemy champion he is impersonating kills him in stead. Active: Owylglass warps the reality in the area around him creating a Lucid Dream (700 unit radius) for 3 / 4 / 5 seconds. Anything in this Dream is slowed down by 40% / 55% / 70%, including, but not limited to; Champion Attack and Movement Speed, Projectile Speed of Abilities and Auto Attacks, Reaction Speed of Abilities and Movements and any over time effect (such as Stuns, Channels, DoT, Healing, Zhonya’s etc.). Owylglass can lift the effect of this ability on himself with "Sleepwalk", allowing him to move at normal speed. Projectiles are still affected by the "Lucid Dream" however.

Note: Lucid Dream is NOT your average slowing area. Yes it does indeed slow champions down, but it also slows down the speed of projectiles and timed effects. No this does not mean that an over time heal will heal more...If for instance a Garen is caught in this ability and his passive is active, he will still heal the same amount per tick, the tick just takes longer. In stead of 1 second it takes 1.7 second (at max level) per tick. This counts for stuns, slows, DoT's, Polymorph and even Zhonya's. See it as if you play a movie in slow motion...everything just takes longer.

Lore:

-Work in Progress-

The world of dreams, for many people, is as unknowable and strange as any other world would be. It is much debated whether this realm is actually a world all on its own, or just a figment of one’s imagination. Although many good arguments have been given for both theories, the truth is still a mystery. But for all this mystery, one thing is certain...many stories originate from this realm. So too the tale’s surrounding Owylglass...A trickster from Yordle folklore. I have yet to find a record of his first appearance, since the figure has disappeared and resurfaced in one form or another through the ages. Many tales portray him as a sharp and thin looking man, wearing robes of shifting leaves that resembles the forest floor on autumn days. Many believe him to be of Fae origin (although many unexplainable things are written off as Fae tricks by the Yordles, Owylglass being of Fae origin would actually make sense, since he does not seem to age and does not have the same grasp on reality as any normal person has). This however, is only presumed to be his own form, for he is a shape shifter. Many tales speak of him wandering around through people’s dreams in the form of a person the dreamer knows. This can be a family member, a friend, a foe or even just someone they saw in the streets. Once he comes close and gains the trust of said dreamer, he will slowly suck the dream from out of the dreamers head and leave him or her exhausted upon waking up. Although no other bad side effects have been recorded (and he seemingly makes no difference between bad or good dreams, often saving people from horrible nightmares), he is usually seen as an ill omen or mischievous trickster.
