[Champion Concept] Nighto - The Spirit of Suffering
Some things should never be repeated, some things should never return. Many tragedies had happened over time, many people suffered and lost their lives. From fall of ancient Shurima, to the current time, tragedies keep scaring the world. And out of all this pain and suffering, a shade appeared. Not to avenge the suffering of innocent, but to spread the pain. To scar every place in this world.

Gameplay/ role This is AD pet user, who manipulates friendly minions and set up combos. While either he bust enemies, while his pets help him burst, or he will disable and kite enemies, while his pets deals damage. While his pets aren't too strong, they are very important of the kit, so building them should be a priority and at same time, when playing against him, pet denying should be your #1 priority. He can force his pets to relentlessly pursuit enemy with his Q and use them to lock enemy down with E. Also, as long he have at lest 1 pet, R is transferring all damage you deal to his pet. Don't let him to stack pets to maximum number (3), because at that time you might lack enough AOE damage to deal against him and his pets.
I think top, jungle and support should be the best roles for him, as he have enough tools to perform any of these roles. While jungling might be a bit hard at first, visiting a lane and taking minions as pets, while other team mates might not be that happy, will increase your jungling speed and decrease damage you take from jungle monsters. In top, only true foe would be ability spammers and ranged enemies, as they could pretty easily deny you for building your own personal army. As support, your main tool is to save minions from killing blows, use pets to poke with E as much as you can and catch enemies with your W, as it will provide quite heavy CC against enemies and grout them into single area, allowing your ADC to burst them all at the same time.
However, he still have pretty much weaknesses. Q doesn't have too much range, W have very low range, enemies can deny you from building pets and without pets your E and R are pretty much useless. He lacks sustain, defense tools (except R) and disengage tools. Right champion can pretty easily shut him down, yet, allowing him to create his own army and allowing him to farm freely will cost you a lot.

http://i68.tinypic.com/eafwj4.jpg With chaos spreading over Runeterra, stronger and stronger individuals appearing, war breaking out in varios places and ancient magic being released, even other realms are being affected. With many unusual phenomena occurring, rifts into foreign worlds appearing out of nowhere, wild magic rampaging through the world, something had to happen.
Five stages of the E.N.D. started occurring though out the world, warning people of eventual chaos of third rune war.
- Reality distortion and gateway to the world of the nightmares. When creatures from the dream realm started appearing in Valoran, it was only the matter of time when will permanent rift to the dream realm appears. Now, one appeared near ancient ruins of Shurima, allowing dream beings to invade Runeterra to no end.
- Opening gates to the underworld, as the dead will be flooding back to the world of the living. Tartown, an undead giant and a prison to evil souls was summoned into Runeterra, together with all demons inside, was the beginning of demonic invasion into Valoran.
- Forgotten god returning back to from oblivion. As lunar temple crumbled down, moon god's presence started surface back into universe, raining down into Runeterra lunar magic more than any time before.
- Angels stepping down from the heavens to fight against chaos and darkness. While several angels were residing in Valoran quite some time, a doorway was opened to the world of angels and a small army of them entered Valoran. They offered their help fighting against fores of darkness, but angels have another purpose being here - control of Runeterra.
- Human killing a human, god killing a god, when hear of gold is pierced by claws of darkness, life disappears form this world. While this haven't happened yet, the time of the last stage of the E.N.D is drawing close.
Armies are preparing for the war, forces of darkness and light are stirring up, even celestials are feeling uneasy, because fifth stage might happen at any time. Or maybe, a hero will rise, to stop this war from happening and will save the world from destruction. Only time will tell.
Now, army of demons and nightmare beings are forming near the ruins of Shurima, while angels are heavily supported by Demacia. Some people of the north view this as a sing of return of the Watchers, while Void worshipers see this as dark destiny they envisioned. However, there is a presence, dark and vile, orchestrating all these events, trying to hasten the E.N.D. This presence isn't one of mortals, neither does it belong to immortal or a god. It belongs to the chaos itself, creator of underworld and beginning of everything which is evil. Sir Gram the Evil - malevolent being made out of death, suffering and madness, is working day and night to bring destruction to every world and every realm, and recreation of universe in his own image. There is no evil greater than him, there is no bigger threat. Now, heroes of Runeterra have to protect their home, fight against demons, nightmares and even an incarnation of evil. Third rune war is about to happen and the aftermath of it will be the eradication of life in Runetera. Will heroes of Valoran be able to stop this war from happening? Or will the evil win?
...............
There is many different spirits around Runeterra. Some are friendly, other are filled with only vengeance. Every spirit have its own purpose - some to bring goodness, other are to bring evil. These spirits are natural phenomena, occurring without any outside interventions, usually. Still, for spirit to be born into existence, something needs to happen. Something big, something... huge. While spirit of rain could be born by million of people praying for rain, what could hive birth to spirit of suffering?
Things started with fall of Shurima. As betrayer killed emperor and become an ascended, turning every citizen of Shurima to dusts, horror and and memories of these people remained. Their memories seeped into land bellow, going underground, deep deep bellow. With every similar tragedy, when people were killed in horror or pain, when they were tormented, these memories seeped into the ground bellow, flowing beneath the surface of the world.
Nighto, extremely talented geomancer, was researching magic of earth. He figured out, that there is some kind of magic flow beneath the earth. He researched and tested many things, but he couldn't tap into this flow. He traveled to all around Valoran, searching for place to tap into this flow, until he found it in the crystal scar. He went into a cave, descended deep bellow the surface of earth. Nighto began a ritual, trying to tap into flow of magic, but he didn't know what he was doing or with what kind of powers he was messing with. This flow was made out of memories of suffering, horror and pain, and within the earth a spirit was born out of these memories. However, this spirit was bound and imprisoned to remain underground, until Nighto freed this spirit. As geomancer taped into magic flow, spirit emerged out of molten earth, possessed Nighto and dragged him into molten earth. After a while, he emerged, burning with flames of suffering, completely fused with memories of suffering. He seen each and every memory of Shurima's people, memories of people, who lived in Blessed Isles and more. He felt each and every tragedy, and as spirit took over, it had only one objective - spread the torment around the wold, continue these tragedies.
Now, Nighto being fused with spirit of torment, risen from deep caves, is walking on the surface of Valoran. He goes from place to place, searching for those, who have pain and evil in their hearts. And as he finds them, he grabs them, staring into their eyes, into their souls and scars within, causing them to expand, taking over his victims souls and minds, pouring energies of torment into his victims and turned them into shades of suffering, damned to forever live in their most horrible memories, walking earth with no other purpose, than to inflict their pain into others.
As Nighto grabs his victim, he says these words: Nighto: i... see... your pain. I see what you have felt. This pain... will never gonna to go away, as you will be feeling it until the end of time. Stare into my eyes, see the pain of others and accept it. Feel what other have felt, join their agony. Stare into my eyes, what do you see?
With all this happening in Runeterra, chaos spreading in every direction, being of other realms invading this world, celestials beings descending to this planet, things about to change drastically. And while Nighto isn't responsible for all these things, because this is the doing of E.N.D., but Nighto is enjoying this chaos, creating shades of suffering. And as he was spreading suffering through Valoran, he heard a voice. This voice was powerful, so powerful, that Nighto was unable to ignore the commands this voice gave:
-- Spirit of torment, do as i command you, create an army for me, as war will be fought, be ready to crush my enemies. -- Listen well, spirit, i am your master and i need you to do something for me. Search for my other servants, revive them to serve me and do my bidding. Travel to ruins of ancient civilization, descent the deepest tomb and search for darkest memories within the tomb. Raise my servant and take him to the land of ice, to the gate of darkness.
Unable to resist, Nighto started to work for his new masters, doing as he was commanded.
