Tabess, The Vile Of The Sands {Champion Concept}
Wouldn't it be cool to keep adding onto the handful of Egyptian god/goddess themed champions like Nasus, Renekton, and Azir? The animal that I always found that symbolized Egyptian mythology is a cat, but more specifically a black cat. Tabess is based off of the Egyptian goddess, Bastet, and I think it would super cool to see an Ascended cat champion in the rift! Nasus is sort of the tank of the Ascended champions, Azir is attack speed, Renekton is physical damage, so I feel like an ability power/speed related one would fit right into the mix.
Tabess' passive ability will be "Ka Of The Claw." - Tabess is followed by her understudies of Felines. A maximum of 2 Felines will aid Tabess in battle, and will hit enemies and monsters she auto attacks, or get hit by one of her abilities. Her Felines will only attack if near walls, rocks, or some sort of terrain, as they use their stealth to jump off of them. They deal 65% of Tabess' ability power (+4% target max HP) per hit. "A claw never misses its strike..."
Tabess' Q ability will be "Swift Grain." - Tabess causes tide in the sands below a targeted area. The ruffling sand will slow enemies by 40% while inside the chaos, and punish them for 20/45/65/80/95 magic damage each second. "I own the very ground you walk upon..."
Tabess' W ability will be "Entomb/Ankh." - {Passive} Rather taking fatal damage, Tabess' Felines will be mummified upon reaching zero health, at their current location. Upgrading this spell will upgrade their max HP (125/155/190/200/250) and movement speed (400/500/600). If Tabess recalls, her Felines are regenerated. {Active} Tabess awakens a mummified Feline. This Feline will gain +15%/+25%/+30%/+35%/+45% ability power on its first attack. "Leave your weaknesses in your past life, and strike harder in this one!.."
Tabess' E ability will be "Linen Obelisk." - Tabess raises a stone Obelisk lined with patching and cloth for Felines to jump off of. If cast within 2 seconds of the first one, a second Obelisk can be built. The Obelisks can cancel charge or wind up abilities, as well as slow pathing from fleeing enemies. Felines can attack and jump off of these Obelisks, and they last for 10 seconds, maximum two Obelisks at a time. "The temples rise and fall as I see fitting..."
Tabess' R/Ultimate ability will be "Oasis." - Tabess grows a storm around her, growing in size, ability power and defenses. She also raises from the dirt a structure of water, trees, and Obelisks, as well as reviving all mummified Felines, and spawning 2 more temporarily. Felines can use the created trees and Obelisks to attack from, and will automatically be hasted and attack the nearest enemy champions. Additionally, allies that bask in the waters of the Oasis are healed for 10% of their maximum health per second. The Oasis collapses, removing all water and trees, the Obelisks created using Oasis, as well as the two additional Felines after 15 seconds. "A cat always lands on its feet!.."
