Vath, Queen of the Depths
Greetings, all! This is a champion concept that I have made for a made up character known as "Vath." A lot of time and effort has been put into this and will continue to be, with your help! This post will constantly be updated with lore changes, item changes, etc. Please suggest balance changes or your thoughts on this champion, it will help me a ton! Thanks for checking this out, enjoy:
Things to know: Each rank is set up using "/" The parentheses indicate the growth stat of the ability
Lore Under Construction (note that lore is constantly being changed in LoL, so this section might need to be constantly updated or revamped)
Information Name: Vath Title: Queen of the Depths Appearance: (All credit goes to whom drew the art) Vath Friends/Enemies: Under Construction Role: Mid-Lane/Top-Lane Mage Attack: 2/10 Defense: 5/10 Ability: 8/10 Difficulty: 9/10
Base/Growth Stats Health: 535 (+85) Attack Damage: 52 (+3) Attack Speed: 0.625 (+2.25%) Movement Speed: 330 Health Regen: 7.45 (+0.6) Armor: 20 (+5) Magic Resist: 25 (+3) Mana: N/A Range: 500
Abilities
[Passive] - High Tide
Cost: N/A Cooldown: 0 Seconds Range: N/A
Passive: Instead of Mana, Vath uses water encased in her skin to cast her abilities. Vath stores 300 water in her body at a time, and takes 3 seconds to refresh. While refreshing, Vath gains 15 (+2) movement speed until completely refreshed. After refreshed, all of Vath's basic abilities are reset, coming off cooldown immediately.
Things to Know: Like Jhin, Vath will regain Water if she has less than 300 water stored after 4 seconds out of combat. If she does not have 300 water by the time she jumps back into combat the regeneration effect will stop.
[Q] - Blast
Cost: 50 Water at All Ranks Cooldown: 10/8/7/6/5 Range: 600
Active: Vath charges up some water for 1.5 seconds before blasting a medium-sized line of water in the targeted direction, dealing 75/95/120/180/240 (+70% of Ability Power) magic damage to all enemies hit, while also slowing them for 50/60/65/70/75% for 2 seconds.
Things to Know: Maxing this ability first will get the most bang for your buck. Use it as a good damaging ability mid and late game, while also using it later in the game to help escaping, since the slow will help a lot when maxed!
[W] - Water Barrier
Cost: 50 Water at All Ranks Cooldown: 8 Seconds at All Ranks Range: N/A
Passive: Vath absorbs the corpses of enemy minions in her blood if she kills them, gaining a stack of "Corpse" whenever one dies within 1075 range of her. Vath caps at 10 stacks.
Active: Vath consumes the corpses, healing herself for 50/75/90/120/140 (+50% of her ability power) over 1.5 seconds. This ability can only be used at 10 stacks of "Corpse."
Things to Know: Try to focus on csing in lane as much as possible. Even if you are being outranged, as long as you are csing well, you won't have as difficult of a time.
[E] - Tentacle Grab
Cost: 100 Water at All Ranks Cooldown: 18/16/14/11/10 Range: 1075
Active: Vath lashes out a tentacle in a direction, stunning the first champion hit for 1.5 seconds and dealing 60/75/80/95/110 (+55% of Ability Power) in magic damage to the target. Vath then uses the tentacle to climb towards the champion, wrapping the tentacle around them and appearing behind them. The tentacle will then slow the target for 30/35/40/45/50% for 2 seconds before latching back onto Vath.
Things to Know: The hitbox of the "hook" or "grab" is only around the size of Nidalee's Q (her spear). Using it on a target that is already cced or heavily slowed will likely guarantee a hit.
[R/Ultimate] - Gravitational Fissure
Cost: 200 Water at All Ranks Cooldown: 115/100/90 Range: 1600
Active: Vath creates a gravitational fissure that reverses gravity on targets that step inside the fissure for 3.5 seconds and deals 120/150/200 (+30% of Ability Power) each second. Takes 1 second to channel ability.
Things to Know: This ability is around the size and is cast exactly like a rumble ultimate. Targets that have reverse gravity are knocked up in place for a certain amount of time, meaning chaining this ultimate with Yasuo's or another linear ultimate like Rumble's is devastating.
Skin Ideas
Blood Lord Vath Cost: 1350 Legacy: No Special Voicelines: (When casting Gravitational Fissure) "Laat bloed verbruikt u!" [Let blood consume you in dutch] Appearance: Wears a deep red and black mask and cape. When regenerating her passive, hands turn red as she charges up hot blood in her veins. Her Q is a deep red blast of blood. W passive turns minions into blood to consume. E is a blood-stained tentacle. Ultimate is red.

Voicelines
[Walking] "I walk here for reasons untold." - "My path is yours to NOT follow!" - "Forgive me? Why you must be out of your mind, my love!" - "Blood pumps, water rushes." - "The deepest water comes from me."

[Joke] (Starts to spin around, tentacles flailing around her before she trips herself and falls to the ground) "Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! (Falls) Why do bad things always occur to me?" - "(Falls) Well I guess I'm back in the depths..." [Joke towards Deep Sea skins] "I don't remember seeing you in the blimey depths yesterday...
