Name: Versha, The Dark Bastion. Role: Tank/support/initiator Origin: Shadow Isles Gender: Female Weapons: Tower shield + Glaive (spear-sword) Appearance: http://orig14.deviantart.net/27dc/f/2014/247/f/d/tower_knight_by_blueflytrap998-d7xxmo1.png (I can't art so I'm borrowing a picture off of google, this is as close to the image I have in my head as possible. So imagine that but female and also with green/blue accents because shadow isles)

So Versha is essentially a hulking mass of armour with a giant sword and shield so she's very much an immobile champion, her kit focuses around stopping burst, initiating and defending objectives.

Passive - Defence and Offence: Defence - While Versha has her shield she takes 25% less damage from the front and sides which increases to 75% upon taking any damage from champions (20 second CD) Offence - Upon taking too much damage to her shield it will shatter and she will two-hand her glaive, giving her +50% AS and double her BASE AD. Lasts for 5 seconds before she reforms her shield and binds it together with shadow. Abilities are not available while this is active. (her shield will not deteriorate while using impenetrable wall)

Q - Impale - Versha imbues her glaive with shadow and lunges forth impaling the first enemy champion she hits, she then lifts them up and slams them down behind her. This inflicts bleed for 7 seconds.

W - Impenetrable wall - Versha imbues her shield with shadow, locking her in the direction the spell was cast and creating an impassable shadow wall at her sides that blocks projectiles and CC however she loses 50% of her movement speed while it is in effect but can be cancelled early. Other abilities cast while this is in use will be smartcast directly infront of her. (she can still be damaged while this is in use and projectiles will still hit HER but will not go past her, she cannot be knocked up however)

E - Grand Cleave - Versha Cleaves the area infront of her twice in a conal AoE, those farther away take more damage and receive 10% more damage for 4 seconds

R - Repulse - Versha sends a wave of shadow outwards in a wide conal AoE that knocks back everyone infront of her and stuns them for 1.5 seconds. The AoE is made into a very wide straight AoE if this ultimate is used while 'Impenetrable wall' is in effect.

Her lore would be something like: She was the guardian of the blessed isles before the ruination corrupted her and turned her into a bastion of despair. (but obviously more flushed out than just that)

Ok thank you for reading, bye! <3 summoner 4

This idea isn't really an engager support (Leona) they are more on the defensive warden side (Braum). If you want an engager, you could change the W to be a like shield rush idea? That pushes aside minions before the support bashes the enemy with their shield (stunning them for like 1 second - 1.5 seconds based on ability level). Then, you could change something else to give her more lockdown power. The Q could remain the same and the E could be changed to something different, or could just remain the same, but I feel like the E could be different, either some soft cc like a slow, or something else.

I feel like this champion is more of a peeler than a vanguard, but these ideas are good.
