Lore:
In Zaun, many years ago, Singed decided to adopt an apprentice, whom he wanted to teach his ideas and pass on his legacy. The child however, was arrogant, and held much anger within him. He laughed at his adoptive father whenever he made a mistake, yet never accomplished anything worthwhile for Singed, so he cast him out.
The boy wandered the streets of Zaun alone, wandering from alley to alley, hunted relentlessly by a wolf-man who brought the most terrible howl. Then, one day, he wandered into an alley, a mysterious glow emanating from the crooked path. In the middle was a white blob of... Something. He bent down and reached for it,hoping it would provide something of value. Then it became a blade, piercing his skin. Blood spilled. There was a howl, and the boy went white. He was coming. He begged to the skies to protect him. Then he heard a voice. "Pledge allegiance to me, and I will save you." It was from the substance. The boy turned Not far away, he heard a growl and smelt the blood-stained fur. He agreed.
The substance enveloped his body, and the boy lost sight of everything. Yet he still heard the howl. He was here. He heard him jump, but his body reacted faster than he could ever imagine. He smacked the wolf in the snout , sending it sprawling. Yet he could feel bones break. He couldn't go on. "This body is weak..." The substance growled lightly, "Improvements must be made." Then the boy felt pain like he had never felt before. The substance was literally erasing his body. Bones were crushed and destroyed, tissue eviscerated, and then, nothing was left except his brain and feelings, which the substance kept for knowledge and a voice.
A terrible battle ensued, but the wolf wasn't able to damage the thing, as it kept changing it's forms, constantly changing. Finally, the wolf backed away, sensing he would meet an end worse than death to this being. However, he swore he would forever try to kill it.

R: Imposter
Cost: 120 mana Cool down: 150/125/100 seconds
Passively, all champions killed by Sokrates will receive an icon above your item menu. Choosing a champion when you have your ultimate up will morph you into that champion. Doing so erases you and the chosen champion off the minimap. This uses the ability, and sets it on cool down. While posing as an enemy champion, Sokrates is unable to attack without reverting form. Turrets do not target Sokrates while he is using Imposter. While an imposter, he can be targeted by enemy attacks and spells, which will revert his form. However, if Sokrates attacks an enemy champion before they attack him, he deals double damage (150/250/350 + 100% AD (doubled if Sokrates attacks enemy without them revealing him [+ 200% AD]) as physical damage.
Very useful if enemy support or jungler is out of lane
