Durim, The Bloodcrazed Hunter [Champion Idea]

[quote=WoWImOp](For the time being, this will be a champion idea that I continuously add too. What you see is [color=#ff0000]NOT[/color] finished. But please, feel free to comment your ideas. Now to begin with, I know what you're thinking. " This game is the only one not corrupted with dwarves. WHY WOULD YOU WANT ANOTHER GAME WITH A DWARF!?!?!?!" Shut up for a second. Dwarves are usually funny and in many ways lovable in games. At least for me. Now let me clarify something. I don't count Gragas as a dwarf. Sure he has the concept, but my biggest quarrel is he's too big. Sorry but in my eyes Gragas = not a dwarf. Now let's delve into the champion shall we? [b][u][color=#ffff00]LORE[/color][/u][/b] [I haven't thought of anything too great yet but here's the base] Long ago, the dwarven people thrived in the Ironspike Mountains. Nobody had ever really heard of dwarves except for a few children tales. They were a proud and mighty people,as well as masters of engineering. For many a year the dwarves prospered in gold, weapons and military. Their strongest and most able hunter, was named Durim. His skill with the blunderbuss was unmatched. He could wield the weapon with such ease, you could barely tell the true weight of the gun. But nay, that wasn't his true skill. He was an astounding trapper, using various mechanisms and gadgets to capture and/or kill his prey. Many of the dwarven people were dying of a strange disease, yet many people heard of a cure. There was dwarven legend of a phoenix made entirely of ice who nested in the mountains. The phoenix's feathers apparently had healing qualities. It was a stretch, and nobody actually knew that the phoenix was real or if it's feathers actually had healing qualities. However it was the only hope. So Durim set off with a hunting party to get the feathers to save his people. He lost numerous hunters just on the journey, and after 10 long years of a fruitless search, he was the only one left. . When he returned to his home battered and empty handed, it was void of life. There were corpses everywhere. Many corpses oozed blood and looked starved. This was enough to drive the young dwarf into madness. Something clicked inside his brain that day turning him into a blood-crazed monster. He hunted numerous animals but such was not enough for him. He traveled through the lands murdering anybody who was unfortunate enough to come across him. He finally stumbled upon the Fields of Justice hoping he would fulfill his bloodlust there. [NOT FINISHED] (Tell me if you like the addition of Anivia. I know nothing of this was in her lore but A.) They never found her and B.) In many stories Phoenix's feathers usually have healing qualities) [b][u][color=#ffff00]DESCRIPTION[/color][/u][/b] He is a few feet shorter than the average human. Blood red eyes with a crazy look to them and short black hair connected to a long bushy black beard/mustache and has a large rounded nose. His teeth are yellowed and rotted. He is fairly stout. His armor contains a leather tunic with a tattered bloodstained green cape with a cowl. His leggings are also leather. He has a belt holding them up containing ammo for his gun and a dragons tooth. He has a large blunderbuss in which he had named "Betsy". The end of his blunderbuss is carved to look like a lion and the trigger is solid gold. His beard seems to have a lot of excess food and dirt in it. His boots are timeworn and ripped, covered in dried mud and blood. [b][u][color=#ffff00]Abilities[/color][/u][/b] [Haven't gotten the numbers configured yet so please help me with this. I'm awful at this part] [b][u][color=#ffff00]Passive Blood Craze:[/color][/u][/b] P.S. TheKut, your idea is brilliant. I'll make him a hunter who prefers traps over brute force. He'll auto attack with his blunderbuss and have an ability that he uses with it as well. Oh and NicknameMy I have no earthly idea who Bloodseeker is so sorry. Sorry I didn't post his abilities but this champion is hard as hell to think of good abilities for that aren't already gone. If you wanna see a more finished champ go to my other idea [b][i][u][color=#ff8000][url=http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/forum/theory-crafting/malphyron-the-necromancer-of-noxus-22937?page=1]Here[/url][/color][/u][/i][/b][/quote]

[quote=utopus]The two things that come to mind when i read your lore & description, were WoW, and the thorin oakenshield's crew in the hobbit. I pictured a dwarf hunter, walking up to the lonely mountain to shoot a dragon. Not sure if that's what you want the theme of your character to be, but atm, i'm not too crazy about the theme.[/quote]

[quote=WoWImOp]I can't honestly say I do not see where you are coming from. However, I also feel there are a few details overlooked here. Yes there are dwarf hunters in WoW. But in my mind at least, being a hunter seems to fit the best with dwarves. I'm keeping it as a hunter so I apologize about that. And I can easily change the dragon to anything else. It could range from an army, to a troll. Plus please keep in mind that this is the pretty much .001 alpha stage of the champion. But I do appreciate the feedback.[/quote]

[quote=NicknameMy]Sounds like Bloodseeker combined with a dwarf. Odd...[/quote]

[quote=TheKut]I do like the idea of a dwarven champion, though I feel like engineering defines dwarves more than hunting. Dwarves are robust and strong and not really fit for silent hunting, while their skills in crafting and mining makes them very fit for inventing machines and such. Keep the blunderbuss though, but makes his skills more oriented around engineering rather than silent hunting in my opinion. Other than that, there's not really enough at the moment for me to judge whether I want him in the League or not.[/quote]

[quote=Sporner]wether hes a digger or a hunter, you could give him an ability to bury himself, giving up on movement in favour of stealth and armour. that would do for escapes as well as ambushes and sustain in teamfights.[/quote]

[quote=TheKut]Okay, so judging from your new additions to your champion and the lore I've come to the conclusion that he is no longer just a hunter, but more likely kill just for the sake of killing. He should probably be oriented around CC, as well as being somewhat of a bruiser with short attack range and long ranged poke rather than an adc. Probably most suited for top or jungle. I'm not great with number so you'll have to come up with thos yourself. Passive - >name here< Whenever Durim enters a bush he is stealthed for a short time as well as gaining increased attack speed for s shot while when the stealth breaks. Entering a warded bush does not trigger this passive. Q - >name here< Durim charged his blunderbuss and fires a bullet which damages all enemies hit as well as stunning the first enemy champion it hits. Charging this ability gives it more range and damage as well as increasing the stun time. While charging his movement speed is slowed down. W - >name here< Durim places a bomb at a target location which explodes when stepped on by an enemy champion. Enemy champions caught in the explosion are knocked back from the center and all enemies hit takes damage. Can place a maximun of 3 traps. If placed near each other one explosion will trigger the other bombs. E - >name here< Durim shoots out a grappling hook, which if it hits terrain or an enemy causes him to dash towards the target it. If it hits an enemy he will immediately stab the enemy with his knife and cripple them which slows and causes bleed. R - >name here< Driven by lust for blood Durim gains increased movement speed, attack speed and increased tenecity for a time. During this time his abilities also gains extra effects. Enhanced Q: His Q is fully charged instantly. Enhanced W: He can place new traps which he can trigger at will by pressing W again. Previously placed traps are unaffected by this. Enhanced E:Instead of dashing to the target hit he drags the target to him instead. If he hits terrain he still dashes to it. Looking at the abilities now it might be a clusterfuck, but you might get some inspiration. The ultimate might be mad overpowered as well, but it's still cool.[/quote]
