[CHAMPION CONCEPT] Josiahs: The Grave Reaper
Josiahs was once a brute of a man, but fortune does not always part fairly. He had a fair job as a bouncer. He listened to the regulations of the job. He was not do drink on the job. It was simple enough, but one day he had just been evicted from his apartment in piltover, so he drank a few pints. Eventually, he was in a confrontation with a lawyer who was causing trouble. He had always had control of himself, but he just lost it. The next thing he knew there was a dying man on the ground. As the man slowly slipped away, I heard him pledge his soul to the spears vengeance. People were well aware of the tale, and I was careful to reproach such superstitions, and immediately called out for a savior, pledging life and soul to save me. Before I could finish my sentence, a flash of ghostly power surged through the bar, swirling around me and the dead man. On one end stood the spear of vengeance, and on the other a ghostly figure with a staff. The atrocity with the staff spoke to me. "The death singer awaits for your soul. Retreat from here, Kalista. His soul is bound to me now." Kalista replied, "Then you are who I shall return for, Lich." With that, the death singer attempted to take my life for his own power, but such an attempt with the two powerful, raw energies flowing freely around both entities did something no one could ever have expected. My soul, released from my body, was taken by karthus, but, as I died, I rose with a new body. One of blood and bone. The death singer simply called me to him, but I refuted. "You have the soul and life a man. I have no life nor soul. I do not serve you, corpse defiler." The lich raised his staff to strike, but instead of landing on bone, it struck the ground. I had retreated into the ground, bones dissipating into dirt and magic. I was a body anew with power, and I did not own allegiance to anyone. Josiahs is a skeleton who has an exceptionally large body. He is about as big as Sion, skeletal, and donned with pieces of armor. He uses his fists and necromancy to fight.
Uses Mana. Tank/Mage Passive: R.I.P: Being an animated corpse, Josiahs is immune to take damage from all Damage over time effects, however, if there are any other benefits to being poisoned, those can still be applied. Q: Graveyard Smash: Josiahs smashes the ground, causing a medium amount of AoE (Area of Effect) damage and then leaving the ground bare of skeletal hands that deal a medium amount of DoT (Damage over Time). The initial smash is AD, and the DoT is AP damage based upon max health. W: Graveyard Repair: As Josiahs takes damage and his bones break, he replaces them with other bones of the graveyard. Josiahs negates 5/7/9/12/15% of all damage done to him for 3 seconds. Based upon AP E: Early Risers: Josiahs can summon up to 2 small skeleons to fight alongside him in combat. They have 20% of his health and 35% of his AD. There is a 10 seconds CD before he can cast this again, and each skeleton lasts 30 seconds. R: Servitude: Josiahs calls power forth from the grave to strengthen him, combining power with them. Every skeleton he has summoned will be consumed. He gains 100 base health +150 health for each skeleton consumed. While he consumes the skeletons, they are dragged towards him, dealing AP damage to any champion in between him and the minion, gains an AoE based upon AP + 0.2 of the remaining health left of the skeletons (If no skeletons +0 damage) after consumption for 12 seconds, and causes a ripple around him, damaging anyone within 200 units near him. He is also visually different, having three heads, whether he devours skeletons or not.
Special Interactions with Thresh, Karthus, and Kalista. To Thresh: "Here to take my soul, chain-warden? It has been gone for a long time. To Karthus: "You have something I desire, death singer." To Kalista: "Come and claim your vengeance, woman."
Sorry for lack of detail and interesting detail. The lore probably sucks. It's late, so I might come back and re-edit. Comments and suggestions are welcome. Any suggestions for a better name too? Thanks.
