#Introduction & Appearance

Hello hello! Its been a long while since my last concept, a few months i think. I actually wrote up a whole other concept for the CCOS, which can be found here if you are interested CCOS, but there was already a similar Concept out there written by someone much more talented then I. So i had to make another concept before the 16th and this is what ive come up with, Tachnus and Silvora. If you like my concept please check out some of my other champions at The Special Champion Concepts List, I plan to rework a few champions there so let me know which ones you think i should rework.

Ok so who and what is Tachnus and who and what is Silvora and what is their relationship... Well Tachnus is a sort of Demi-god who roamed Runeterra long long ago and Silvora is the manifestation of his powers given life and used to chain and bound Tachnus into submission. Answer your questions? No? Well read the Lore if you want more on that. His intended role? I dont know to be honest... I would take him to any lane as any role. Now on to his appearance!

Tachnus is a being of molten metal, his arms and legs look glow bright like hot metal and his skin has a grayish tone to it, like metal. He has large twisted metal horns and spikes on his back that resemble wings that have been poorly ripped from his body. He is well built and doesnt wear clothes (his lower half is all molten metal so his naughty bits arent seen if he even has them). Around his body are chains made of liquid silver-like substance, these are to control his power. Silvora is a giant ball of liquid metal that floats just above and behind Tachnus' head. Silvora is the one who basic attacks and is the base for all of Tachnus' abilities except for when he is in ult mode. Basic attacks look like small silver bullets being shot at enemies.

#Lore

Long long long ago when the land was ruled by the forces of nature and the Beings who dominated them, human kind was a pitiful existence, equal to an ant when compared to those that held power in this world. Humans lived a life of fear, they held no power over nature like the other inhabitants and thus were viewed as useless. Among the terrors that plagued humanity there was one who was feared above all else, Tachnus the Molten Death.

Tachnus saw humans as nothing more then sport, he loved nothing more then to watch them burn, impaled on his molten spears. Countless humans lost their lives to his cruel games and it seemed he was hell-bent on eradicating all of humans just to see if he could. It was during these times that humanity got its closest to extinction, Tachnus' power was far too immense for anyone to stop, even the other Beings of Power dare not incur his wrath. When hope was all but lost, when tears had been shed so much that no more would come out, He came.

A human of great power, a human who could hold sway over the land, his power was so great he controlled the very ground and sky like one would a piece of string. It was this man who shielded the humans from the other Beings, he created strongholds and trained armies so that they may protect themselves in his absence. Humankind flourished, with new life and vigor they spread out building nations and kingdoms, this man worshiped as their god. Eventually, Humans became the power of the land, they became something to fear, and with this new power being taught to those capable they even began to exterminate the other races. Obviously Tachnus was not pleased by this, his prey began fighting back and while they still posed no threat to him, it did remove most of the fun.

Furious, Tachnus searched out and found The Man of Power, and attempted to kill him. Tachnus was surprised to learn that this human was his match in both strength and power. Their battle raged for days, then weeks, then years. One would grow weary and flee or some other unforeseen event would happen causing them to halt their fight an continue another time. The fear humans held for Tachnus slowly faded, they began to see him as nothing more then an inconvenience, his existence lowered to that of a rat or cockroach in the eyes of those who once was feared him above all.

Distraught and blinded by rage Tachnus threw everything he had at The Man of Power, in his troubled state of mind he could not give it his all and soon The Man of Power took advantage of this and defeated Tachnus. But, instead of killing Tachnus, The Man of Power took pity on him seeing nothing more then a demon who had fallen from power, a shell of its former glory. So The Man of Power, forced all of Tachnus power and strength out of his body and gave it the form of liquid silver, he then used this power to shackle and chain Tachnus, making him no more powerful then a normal human. But The Man made a mistake, in his tired and weary state he pitied Tachnus too much forgetting the great terror he had once been, and could not fully shackle him. Tachnus took this opportunity to spear The Man of Power with the very power he was being chained with, killing him instantly and weakening the restraints.

Although he had killed his enemy, Tachnus was still almost powerless, no better then a common human mage. So he decided to hide and train his new power so that he may once again reclaim his throne as the most feared Being in all of existence. No one knows where he went or when he will reappear, but when he does, my children, we are all doomed.

#Explanations

So i will try to explain a bit about his kit here, i know that he probably seems a bit complicated and he is kind of meant to. I will also like to say that, if possible, i would like you to focus on his abilities rather then their numbers. Numbers can be changed easily for balance, but his abilities can not so if possible id like most of you attention to be on whether the abilities could work rather then their damage.

Normally i go through each ability explaining it but im not going to do that here, i feel his abilities are somewhat simple and dont need much explaining. Instead i will be going over how he is suppose to be used. Tachnus and Silvora are one, Silvora is his basic attacks and his abilities, until he ults. The ult separates the two, Silvora becomes like a Pet similar to Tibbers or Mordes Ghosts. This is how it works, Silvora and Tachnus can AA different enemies, but when Tachnus casts an ability Silvora will cast an ability on the same target or in the same area. This is where his main damage comes from, the ability to fully utilize both Tachnus and Silvora. You need to watch placement of both, you need to be wary of timing for both, you need to make sure you are watching your health, you need to make sure you are using the right abilities, etc. Pre-6 Tachnus is just a simple mage similar to Vlad or Morde, but Post-6 Tachnus and Silvora become something unique.

Ok so no i will go over a bit what i feel may be confusing.

So his Q is like a mix of Mega-Gnar Q and Ahri Q. Much simpler said like this lol

The W is just a simple single target attack, nothing fancy about it but it functions similar to Jax's ult passive, where timing of use is important.

The E is like Mordes E, but the difference is it deals a set amount of damage to an area. The more enemies in the are the less damage it deals to each target but this leaves us with a decision to make. Do we kill a mass amount of minions to regain a ton of health or do we wait to use it against the enemy when they are alone?

The ult is where he gets complicated. You control Silvora like a pet, with Alt-Click or with R. When you use Q they both will use their Q on the target location or enemy. If you are thinking "OMG TONS OF DAMAGE EASY OMG" then ima say you is wrong son. Silvora steals 30% of Tachnus' AD and AP, meaning his loses 30% of his AD and AP. So now all his and Silvora's scalings will be done off of the new Ad and Ap's ADDITIONALLY Silvora's base damages are cut by 40% so he actually does less damage. BUT! If you use the abilities correctly in conjunction with each other, then your damage is incomparable to before. So its all dependent on how well you control 2 units with their own cooldowns and damages.

Item Builds & Level Sequence

For items id recommend building him hybrid bruiser, similar to Poppy or Jax or Irelia. But he can be built pure AD or AP, he can even be built pure tank although i feel you wont enjoy it since he doesnt have a lot of CC.

or one of these will be core, depending on how you build him.

One of the items would be quite effective on him, most likely .

might be pretty good on him too.

Its hard to tell what would be good on him without actually playing him.

As for level sequence obviously Ult first, it gives a great boost to tank items and the cool down for switching quickly will be reduced. Plus all his abilities are leveled up through his ult when in ult mode.

Honestly i feel any one of his other 3 abilities can be maxed first, depending on how you play him. Poke mage? Probably Q or E. Bruiser? Probably his W. Its up to you :D.

#BONUS BONUS BOOOOOOONUUUUUUUUUUSSS!!!!!!!!!!
