-Lore-

As Lissandra continued to warp the minds of tribes in the Freljord, she knew that while undercover she would need one to do her true bidding, to keep the fear of the watchers alive and destroy her enemies. There was one young girl in the village she led in disguise that was unlike the others. She loved her leader, believing her to be the best chieftain the village had ever seen. Kaie would follow her chief to the ends of Runeterra and hoped one day to be her successor, learning from the vast knowledge she held. Lissandra kept a close eye on Kaie, seeing a spark of greatness inside her, and began to hatch a plan to use her.

Kaie lived in a small cottage with her mother and father. Her father ran a shop down at the market that sold woven fabrics, courtesy of his beloved wife who stayed home and fixed these fine garments for sale. Kaie, however, chose none of what her parents did for a living. Instead she wandered about the land looking for treasures or relics of value. She ventured through the valley close to her village many times a day to see if the snow held any secret items of forgotten fortune.

As early morning rose, so did Kaie, ready for more adventuring and exploration. Once again she ventured far and wide and found very little. But to her surprise on her walk back from a long day of tales she found something most mysterious; a tiny shard of dark ice that she found mesmerizing. As she lay in bed that night, to her wonder, it glowed an eerie gleam of deep blue across her bedroom.

The next morning she awoke to a cold shiver running down her spine that she had never felt before, even for that harsh winter of the Freljord. To her horror, the ice shard had grown and fused with part of her hand, and she could no longer feel it. The shard latched to her hand now throbs with light and grows just enough to cover her whole hand, and is now sinking its way into her veins. After several hours of pain she starts to hear the voice of a woman that sounds unfamiliar. She knew not where to go, so she listened to the ice. It guided her through the valleys that she had searched and through the foreign lands that laid far beyond her now desecrated home. Even at the sight of her own family murdered, she now could feel nothing but an overwhelming need to find this voice...

She finds her way to a bridge leading to a castle of stone and ice. Over the bridge she goes, stumbling through the structure's doors. Lissandra, amazed at the lengths she has gone to to get to her despite being only a mortal, could see that she was a determined one. She knew she had chosen right, so Lissandra sent magic coursing into the ice to complete Kaie's transformation. What she didn't realize, though, is that by doing this out of her own need, she let this need be poured into this vessel on top of Kaie's own.

When Kaie first came to and began to do her bidding, Lissandra could not be happier with her work. She had carved a perfect soldier of her very own, to end those whom she saw as standing in her way, while being able to continue her own devious plans. Soon, however, she began getting reports of Kaie's killings that she had not ordered. When brought in for questioning she simply stated "I am eliminating threats you have yet to see." Lissandra determined she needed to rein in Kaie before she drew too much attention.

For a time, Kaie stayed and did as Lissandra bid and no more. One day, however, her need to protect and do as Lissandra needed overwhelmed her. She decided that Lissandra no longer saw or knew what she really needed to win back the land she so craved to rule. Having heard of the recent whereabouts of some of Lissandra's greatest enemies, Ashe and Sejuani, Kaie struck out to enter the League of Legends, to put and end to the rule that held her beloved leader back from sure victory...

-Appearance and Mannerism-

Growing up living in, and exploring the Freljord Kaie gained a lean toned body, while still maintaining her femininity (of course :p). When the spell came over her all her features hardened and became as sharp as the ice that found it;s way into her soul. Her skin now has a deathly blue pallor, and her eyes glow blue with the power swirling inside her. Her armor and blade form from the true ice that stole over her body.

Kaie is now very strong willed, cunning and ruthless. She was changed into the perfect soldier, save for one thing. Her amplified need to empower and protect Lissandra, it became so overpowering she will even dissobey a direct order from her if it means protection or victory for her. She will not stop at anythign to destroy any and all adversaries, giving even Sejuanies brutality a run for its money.

In her new look her skin will be darker, I will be adding some glowing veining like lissandra's especially were her sword now connects into her arm, digital is still in progress and will take a bit of time.

-Abilities-

Passive- Whatchers Shell: Upon taking damage from any basic attack Kaie's skin freezes over for 5 seconds, reducing the damage of the next attack (basic or spell) by 10%/12%/14% at levels 1/ 6/11 and stacks up to 3 times before resetting. Once reset it is on cd for 7/5/3 seconds at levels 1/6/11 again.

[Q] Winters Edge Kiae's blade turns to true ice spreading through her body for 3 seconds, channeling the fury of the winter frost into her attacks. As the power of the watchers flows through her she gains BONUS 10/15/20/25% armor and magic resist. Her next basic attack within 3 seconds deals 20/30/40/50/60% BONUS ad damage and stuns her target for 1.5 sec at all levels as well as slows her targets movement speed and attack speed by 10/15/20/25/30% This slow decays over 1.5 seconds. CD-12/11/10/9/8 Mana cost-45

[W] Ice Tempest Kaie brings about a small storm to encircle her blinding all champs in a range of 300/400/500/600 for .5/1/1.5/2sec. Within the storm small ice shards slice at Kaie's enemies dealing BONUS 35/40/45/50% of her overall ad. (looking to focus on blinding closer range but be able to reach some range champs as well) C/D 16/15/14/13/12 Mana cost- 60/65/70/75/80

[E]-Ice Worn Path

• Ice spreads below Kaie as she speeds forward in a dash towards a chosen TARGET at a distance of 600 units, the path left in her wake SLOWS all enemies that cross it by 10/20/30/40%. If she strikes her TARGET she stuns her enemy for .5/1/1.5/2sec and deals 50/55/60/65/70% AD. (this will be a skill shot, and can pass through terrain) CD-14/13/12/10/9 Mana cost-60

[R] - Winters Cleaver

• Passive(Winters Wrath): Slowing affects triggered by Kaie may stack without diminishing returns, but slows outside of Winter's edge have no speed bonus return to Kaie. Once an opponent is slowed to 75% or more they are frozen stunning them for 1/1.25/1.5 sec. After a target is stunned, they cannot be slowed again by Kaie for the next 10 seconds.

Active: Kaie uses the magic instilled in her to extend her simple spiked katana into a terrifyingly elongated sword that sweeps through all enemies in its path. She gains BONUS30/35/40% AD for the duration of her ultimate. She raises it and strikes through a target area 4 times at a distance of 400/450/500, this is SWEEPING attacks that damage all in the set cone area of 65/70/75 degrees and slows all enemies struck. This also slows all opponents struck by her blade by 20/30/40% with 10/20/30% speed return to Kaie. (wedge like area of damage, not a full semicircle, also the blade simply elongates into a sword like Sephiroth's from final fantasy) Base AD: 80/85/90 Cd-140/120/100 Mana cost 100

-Quotes- Voice is a slightly deeper tone and has more strength like sejuanies, but has the same magical quality the lissandra's has due to the magic in her.

Champion Selection: "The Ice Witch shall rule again...."

-Movement- "The cold will wear you down" "Do you truly believe you can escape" -Attacking- :"My chieftain shall be Queen!" "You shall know the cold fury of True Ice!"

-Against Ashe- "All your pitiful treaties shall acomplish nothing."

-Against Sejuani- "You think your are truly born of ice...hahaha(low and menicing)"

-With Lissandra- "We shall bring upon a new era my Queen, yours!"

-Recommended Items/Build- Kaie is set to ba fairly tanky with good ok sustain and great SLOWS. I believe items such as -Frozen Heart, Randuins Omen, and possibly a Spirit Visage or G/A are great for building up her tank side. For offensive She needs a bit of sustain and for both O/D she needs to capitalize on her slows so -Frozen Mallet, Zephyr(to land more SLOWING strikes and control/chase down opponents), hydra or blade of the ruined king for a bit of possible life steal (all input is welcome here especially)

-Skins- Due to the connection with Liss I decided to make her first skin bloodstone. This is only the initial sketch and color and I will add digital later. Also her sword now comes from her views and is a part of her, if it gets positive feedback I will be adding it to her base skin as well.

Help on abilities from many who have posted so far. Lots of love from Kanacho!

The digital is her original look, she was going to be more assassin style. The second sketch is her with more armor to fit the more fighter vibe while holding the essence of an assassin.

More artwork conning soon hopefully showing her passive as well as spell icons! (possibly even a comic style board for her lore) Also even if you aren't one to do a champ review I'd love an up vote if you like her!
