Pool Party Ivern!

Ivern's long overdue for a new skin, and whilst discussing things with Fishbones a friend of mine, we managed to come up with a new addition to the Pool Party!

Model Appearance Ivern's sleeves and leggings are pool noodles, even though wood typically floats. Ivern is all about having a jolly fun time, so of course he'll have multiple colours as well. Pink, Green, Blue, and Purple, for example.

Atop his head is a wide-brimmed hat (fully equipped with tropical flower, of course), because we wouldn't like to let this precious pile of lumber dry out or scorch in the sun. A single patch of sunscreen adorns his nose. The mushroom atop his head is replaced with a jolly little sand castle bucket. For safekeeping, of course.

Obligatory flippers on his feet, because he enjoys flip flopping through the water. Splashing is extra fun.

He also sports some very stylish board shorts, featuring palm fronds, because trees are awesome.

Ability Animation

Friend of the Forest When using Friend of the Forest, the jungle camps are enclosed in a lifeguard's ring, that slowly increases in colour over time. When the timer elapses, the ring is fully lit, and gently bobbing on a magical puddle. If Smite is used, the camp disappears in a magical glowing splash.

Rootcaller Ivern lets loose a length of garden hose (previously a water balloon), tangling around the target on hit and leaving them dripping. Anyone dashing to the rooted target makes a distinctly slippery sound before a satisfying splat upon impact.

Brushmaker Ivern's brush is bright green (slightly overgrown) suburban grass, complete with lawn flamingo, or Tiki™ torch, or deck chair, or beach umbrella.

Triggerseed Ivern shields an ally with a glittery bubble, that ends in a POP! that deals the requisite...wait for it...splash damage.

Daisy! The lovable golem emerges as a sand sculpture, with a matching tropical flower at her head and a sheer wrap-skirt. She also sports a neon-coloured life vest, because sand unfortunately sinks. Her feet are adorned with thong sandals.

The stack indicator for her knockup is a beach ball, whose stripes fill with each stack acquired. When at max stacks, the ball bounces excitedly. Daisy's knockup is a sandcastle tower, exploding in tiny yellow grains as the enemy flies upward.

Recall

Ivern's recall channel features our jolly champion standing beside a pool of water, admiring the shiny surface for a moment before throwing his arms out, shouting 'CANNONBAAAAAALL!' before ironically trust-falling forward into a belly flop. Ivern rolls onto his back, spitting a little fountain into the air as a Pengu pops up beside him in a pool floaty ring.

I apologise for the wall of text, but because I cannot do the picture arts, I am resorting to quirky narrative to hopefully express how much fun coming up with this idea has been.

I hope you enjoy!
