Seishin - The Spirit (Champion Concept)
Seishin, The spirit
I used the name Seishin, because it means "The Spirit" in Japanese.
CHAMPION LORE:
For as long as I can remember I've been on this island, abandoned, scarred, left with nothing but fear.
Though I never felt alone, the dead kept me company, but I never stopped training and trying to escape that island. The only thing I was learned of this place, is that it's called the shadow Isles, the rest is a cold and harsh leason.
Horrifying creatures and beings where the only thing I could see at the time, being a little kid was bad enough. At least I had a sword, but it didn't help much, because I couldn't even lift it, but I trained, and finally one day it was judgement that was in charge, I saw two people for once, they killed almost all of the beasts there. I was laying there while I watched the woman get pulled into the soul prison, the man wanted to chase after her but she was already gone, he was also about to die, getting killed by one of the beasts he slays.
I saw the sword I wanted to battle with so much glow, I picked it up and killed that thing, I saw his spirit dragged into the sword. The man didn't have the look of justice on his face anymore, he only had a cold vengeful expression as he took of, but thanks to him I have strength of my own, using the spirits of things, it sounds wrong but it wasn't.
There is a difference between good and evil souls, but I din't care if the evil ones talked to me also, I was getting out of there, I also need to slay these monsters and get out of here with my new found strength. I don't remember how many I killed, and how many spirits I saw but I thought this island was endless, just when I saw the shore, they caught up with me, the warden also who took the woman was there, I thought to myself this was the end. Then all those spirits I passed gripped on to them, the ground lighting up as they appeared, this was my chance, get out of there while everything is held of.
Even though I don't want to, I'll go back there and kill every last one of them, those who creep in the shadows will run away while I am there, hopefully the man I saw there will also return to help. When it is done, I can go home.
MECHANICS: Now basicly how Seishin works is like this, he uses spirit instead of mana or energy, this consist of 6 spirit that he must charge up using his Q, there is an infinite amount of time he can store his spirit until he uses it of course. He is mainly a fighter, but can also work as a support.

If enemies are caught in the area when the timer stops, they are rooted for 1/1.5/2 seconds. The area closes in a wave motion once the amount of time has run up.
Passive: None
Playing as Seishin:
- Seishin can make of good use to poke using his W to counter enemies who are trying to poke.
- His Q can be of good use to clear lanes late game with it's low cooldown and to build up Spirit for teamfights.
- Your E can be useful to force enemies into your ultimate to land the root.
- Your ultimate is very useful in a teamfight, be sure to use it when multiple champions are engaging.
- Seishin's passive makes him durable if you don't have good defensive items, so try to save up on spirit.
- Leap over object to ensure a good escape if you're on low health.
Playing against Seishin:
- Try to avoid giving him a chance to counter you with his W, like using a mock ability to make him use it for nothing, then he is more defenseless.
- Get out of his ultimate as soon as possible unless you want to be rooted.
- Seishin relies heavily on his Spirit to deal damage and to take it, if he is low on spirit engage before he can gain some.
- Seishin can only knock back three champions at a time, use this as bait.
- Stay spread out if Seishin has his ultimate, to reduce the chances of allies getting rooted.
- Thresh can gain extra souls if he collects them from Seishin, keep this in mind if you are playing with him.
APPEARANCE: His Sword idea On the hilt of his sword is a silver chain that hangs all the way till Seishin's ankles. The color of the hilt is silver, where the black is, is actually supposed to be glowing a green-blue energy, relating to the spirits, the black part fills up as Seishin gains more spirit. The blade itself is silver and has a shimmering affect to it.
His cloak idea Basicly Seishin wears dark brown clothing under his cloak with silver padding. Seishin can toggle his hood when using his joke (I just think it will be hilarious if he is like seriously in combat and just randomly Nathan comes and takes his hood of XD) When he has his hood on you can only see his eyes glowing that Green-Blue energy. Also when he has his hood on his regular cloth becomes the same glowing energy but the silver padding stays the same, but it has the same shimmering affect as the blade.
This is the kind of color I had in mind ignore the affect itself
Anyway, his Q: He slashes from right to left, with a glowing after effect, and his meter fills up.
His W: He lifts his blade into the air and absorbs the attack, then he shoots a projectile that is a little smaller than himself in a sphere that is has the same glowing effect with an after trail.
His E: He jumps into the air doing a slow kind of back flip and throws his sword in the ground before he lands on it doing a hand stand on the hilt with his right hand before spin-kicking, the spin-kick has the same after glow and effect, then he stands upright and grabs his sword.
His R: He stabs the ground, creating a fast traveling wave until it reaches max distance, which then has a blight affect in the area with souls flowing out of it that is the green-blue color. the root is basicly normal but with the glowing affect.
How he actually looks: Well he has a clean face with no facial hair, he has black spiky hair. I think for splash art you can add his eye color with is the same color as the glowing effect green-blue like this
What he looks like when he jokes and what happens: Nathan appears behind him and keeps Seishin's eyes of him, then he takes off Seishin's hood, then Seishin lifts his arm in the air like he is going to punch him. When joking while Seishin's hood is off, he just tries to find Nathan but cannot get his eyes on him then he just puts on his hood.
When he Taunts: A ball appears made out of spirits and then Seishin gazes into it while he holds it in his left hand, like he is telling the future or something. (he isn't very good XD)
When he dances: He grabs onto his sword's chain on the hilt and then he spins his blade around.
When he Laughs: Seishin puts his hand on his forehead while he looks down and laughs.
His skin, now I was thinking something like soul reaver Seishin or Bloodmoon Seishin. If that doesn't work than maybe something like shadow isles Seishin?
QUOTES, TAUNTS AND JOKES: Jokes: "Well so you see 'this' has it's downfalls." "(when Seishin is about to put up is arm) Nathan! Stop that." "Allow me to introduce you to N- where'd he... NATHAN!"
Towards Ninjas, "Why do you always keep your mask on? Are you that ugly?" Towards Zed, "Where's your shadow? Did the spirits scare him off?" Towards enemy Seishin, "Well, this is awkward." Towards Tryndamere, "Ok, big sword."
Taunts: "I can see your future, it seems your gonna die." "Let me see, you'll have no spirit in you after 2 minutes." "You know this thing is a fake, but your death isn't" Towards Thresh, "You, I remember that lantern." Towards Thresh. "Warden, die." Towards someone from the shadow isles, "Shadow Lurker."
Quotes: "Friends come and go." "Must press forward." "Sometimes this feels like a lost cause." "Forward then." "I go." "I will save them." When buying blade of the ruined king, "It kind of suits me."
Summoning Quote: "Spirits are the only thing I need, the only thing that can be trusted."
ENEMIES AND ALLIES: Allies: Lucian
Enemies: Thresh
CONCLUSION: Anyway I hope this idea or concept will be used, I just wanted to get this idea out to Riot because I though it was cool. So hopefully it will be used :P
