Lore
Desmans: A young apprentice in a sanctuary on the Blessed Islands, that day, the day of the damnation, he was just taking a stroll, the day had been hard, he was just a helping hand, while he was grateful, as these islands had taken him as one of its own when he, as just a baby, appeared on the beach, dragged by the waters from god know where, he was tired of being a lesser one, as clumsy as he was, he had good intentions, but lacked the potential to become something greater. Its wish came in a way that he would never expect., because when all hell broke loose, the floor under its feet broke apart, and he fell down into the neverending darkness.
As he later discovered, this was an ancient chamber, sealed with holy magic against any kind of dark power, made hundreds of years earlier to protect 3 Masks that contained the spirits of 3 powerful spirits, that were as uncontrolable as powerful, as they would posess the body and mind of anyone that dared to place them onto themselves.
Desmands stood there for one hour, sitting in a corner, trembling in fear by the voices that he heard in his head. Only sometimes the voices talked to him, as they were most of the time just arguing, while 2 were completelly aggresive one against the other, a third one, more peaceful, tried to keep them calm. Fate wanted that to be the moment, and after that hour, the undead apocalypse began on the islands. Desmands felt it, the death taking over everything, the loss of breath, the bone chilling cold. He stood there for days, alone with himself and those voices, until he finally got enough courage to step up and reach the center of the room, where 3 altars kept the masks. One after the other, he started wearing them, feeling the spirits, feeling himself change, as he was more ghost than man now, even when in the blessed room, the curse had taken its toll on him, not killing him, but getting him in between two worlds.
When he jumped out of that room, he was a new being, with 3 masks around his body, and a set determination to discover what happened to all his fellow comrades, and to try to solve it.
Too bad these kind of happy ending stories are just for fairy tales, for when he arived at home, everyone was sprits, liches, or simple undeads, having forgotten him and trying to devour what was left of his being. He realized it since he got out of the room, but he kept telling himself that his closer ones would be safe, only to break on crying when he found his loved ones as agonizing souls
The resolve that filled them that day was the same, even when each of them gave a different reason: “Save them” “Defeat them” “Devour them” “Ill release them from this torture”
And since that day, he started traveling the now known as Shadow Isles, ending with the corrupted spirits of the long ago inocent inhabitants of the Blessed Isles that he once knew and loved, always followed by 3 arcane spirits.
Void Maw: Mask that seals the essence of a dangerous Void predator known as Dex'kou, this creature was specialist in destroying the strongest armors with drill like claws to expose the soft core of its preys and devour them. Died when the Void overtook Icathia, crushed between Brakom's arms, not before claiming the lives of many ascended and shuriman warriors.
This mask has only ad scalings in all its skills
Celestial Constelation: A long forgotten celestial entity knew as Utteras that passed away peacefully while drifting between dimensions, he never acted directly in the affairs of the universe, but its touch was felt by everyone
This mask has only ap scalings on all its skills
Ascension Omen: One of the first ascended warriors that blessed Shurima , knew as Brakom, remembered by its iron will, its cool mind and its battle mastery, died in the Icathia incident along with many comrades, when tired and with uncountable wounds, his chest was pierced by Dex'kou in a surprise attack, that ended with him crushing it between his own dying arms
This mask has only magic.res, armor and hp scalings on all its skills

Celestial Stars:
Energy from the stars Upon receiving an skill, there is a 25% chance of the mana that was used for casting that skill be given to Utteras as a passive state, with this passive, clicking himself or a ally unit will grant the mana amount marked on that passive (the passive mana absortion can keep triggering even when there is mana astill to be delivered in the form of passive)
Switching masks will reset the passive mana amount

Q
Masquerade
One touch will change the equipped mask, releasing a small aoe area buff and buffing Desmans with the corresponding buff.
Keeping the key pressed will drain 30 mana to enter posessed mode, where Desmans will resemble the spirit that inhabit the mask, doubling the masks buff and allowing the use of the ultimate skills of each mask (If Desmans isn't in posession mode, he is unable to use any ultimate skill)
This mode will drain mana, and once the mana is depleted, will start devouring health points unless deactivated by switching masks (2% max hp or mana per sec). After releasing a ultimate skill, a internal cooldown of 3 seconds will block the mask switch for Desmans, as he needs to recover from using too much spiritual power by releasing that spirit's best spell
