Cedron, the Sword of Duality

Cedron – The Sword of Duality

Overview Gender: Male Race: Human Origin: Unknown Alliance: Independent Class: Hybrid Caster-Fighter Subclass: Melee Carry Weapon: Dual Swords Attack Type: Melee Energy Source: Mana

Cedron is a hybrid caster-fighter who thrives on close range encounters and suffers from short range and poor mobility. His early game leaves him a little weak to pressure, as his base stats are a little low compared to others, but with some damage and cooldown reduction he can become a late game terror. Missing an ability leaves him open to attack, successfully chaining spells lets him make powerful trades at close range. His base stats are a little low, to compensate for his bonuses.

Passive: Gifts of the Sage When Cedron uses an ability, he switches swords. The Sword of the Guardian grants 6(+2*level) bonus armor and magic resist based on level, and grants. The Sword of the Conqueror grants 10(+0.29 per level)% increased AD and AP. Using an ability places its counterpart on the same cooldown. Landing a skill reduces the previous cooldown by 40%. Basic attacks reduce all cooldowns by 15% of remaining cooldown.

Q: Blessed Aegis/Accursed Bolt Blessed Aegis shields the target champion for 2 seconds, converting 50% into missing health over the duration.

Cedron slams his sword into the ground, releasing a shockwave that does magic damage which ramps up further away, slowing enemies hit by 25% (+5% per 100 AP) for 1 second. At half max distance, it also knocks them up for .1 to .3 seconds, based on how far they are away from him. -Self-targeted Area of Effect attack -Range: 600 -Minimum Damage: 60/70/80/90/100 (+25% AP) -Maximum Damage: 100/250/300/350/400 (+75% AP) -Cost: 90/100/110/120/130 mana -Cooldown: 25

R: Sword of the Sage Cedron merges both swords, granting him both buffs for the duration and empowering the current sword. The Sword of the Guardian grants damage reduction, while the Sword of the Conqueror causes him to deal bonus true damage with all attacks. Cedron’s attack speed is reduced by 20% for the duration. -Self buff -Range: 200 -Damage Reduction: 6/8/10% -Bonus True Damage: 6/8/10% of all damage dealt -Duration: 3.5/4/4.5 -Cost: 100/120/140 mana -Cooldown: 200/160/120

Blessed Aegis is intended primarily for gap closing, and for soaking up damage Cedron might incur when moving to attack. Cedron can cast it on a tank when they initiate, allowing him to enter the fray. The sustain is intended to be minor and only enough to encourage regular use. Accursed Bolt is used for hitting low health champions and otherwise keeping Cedron close enough to continue attacking. Stand Ground gives Cedron a powerful tool against poke, if aimed correctly. Poorly positioned, he may find enemies attacking from his vulnerable backside. Mystic Slash serves as Cedron’s primary offensive skill, dealing both magic and physical damage. Vault is good for keeping enemies positioned where Cedron wants them, so that he can follow up with W. Echoes of War punishes enemies that try to stay in range to basic attack Cedron, but is slow and easily dodged by a more wary player. R is intended for teamfights, when Cedron needs the extra defense to stay alive without giving up his damage. The high cooldown and mana costs ensure that he won’t use it at will during the laning phase.

Lore Cedron was born to a Noxian Father and a Demacian mother, both of whom deserted for each other’s sake to live in seclusion. Even from an early age, Cedron had a hard time understanding why Demacia and Noxus were separate and hostile to each other. He was convinced that protecting the weak was a valid show of strength, just as using it to one’s own ends. As for justice, he felt it could not be defined so clearly. What justice was there in preventing warriors from using their skills, or general’s their cunning, however they saw fit? His parents insisted that he live a simple life in like seclusion, but Cedron wanted more. When he came of age, Cedron packed up his things and traveled throughout both Demacia and Noxus, preaching his philosophy to whoever would listen and protecting himself whenever things got violent. But he was frustrated to find that people were often unwilling to listen to his radical ideas. He started to wonder if his journey served any purpose at all. It was around this time that Cedron met a strange old man who asked him what he would do given strength to defeat his enemies or protect his allies. Cedron replied that he would do the same thing with either: bring people together. The old man was surprised by this response, and gave Cedron a pair of magical swords which had destroyed the minds of other men. The old sage vanished, not a man after all but a celestial spirit. With swords in hand, however, he knew he had been given the tools to prove his beliefs to the world, by joining the league of legends.
