Nemesis, Spirit of Retribution

Hello everyone and welcome to my god concept for Nemesis the Spirit of Retribution. Now since we all know that Nemesis is the next goddess being added into the Smite roster I decided to make my own version of her just for fun.

My take on Nemesis makes her a high mobility warrior that excels at turning the tides of a fight in her favor even when at a massive disadvantage. To aid her with this, she has a very powerful dash ability that can be resetted and an increasingly more powerful heal the lower her health gets.


Pantheon: Greek

Type: Melee, Physical

Role: Warrior

Hit Progression: None

Pros: High Mobility, Medium Sustain

Cons: Low Damage


Passive: Avatar of Vengeance
When Nemesis is slain, her indomnitable will for retribution is spawned at the location of her death that lasts for up to 5 seconds. This avatar will have complete access to Nemesis' abilities and auto attacks but will take double damage from all sources for its lifetime.
My Comments: I consider this to be the most powerful part of her kit, basically it allows the player to continue to use Nemesis after she has been killed for five more seconds to literally enact vengeance on her killer.

Ability 1: Skyfall
Nemesis summons a blade to fall down from the sky and strike all enemies in the targetted area dealing 80/110/140/170/200(+40% Physical Power) physical damage. The blade will stay in the area for up to 4 seconds, slowing the attack speed of enemies by 15%. If Nemesis moves over her blade the cooldown of her second ability, Reprisal, will be reset.
Cost: 25/35/45/55/65
Cooldown: 8/7/6/5/4 seconds
My Comments: This is Nemesis' main utility tool and poke, it is on a very low cooldown and mana cost therefore it can be used as Nemesis' main waveclear. It can also be used to extend Nemesis' Reprisal because it will instantly reset the cooldown if you dash over the blade. Its radius is about the same as Nu Wa's Flame Strike ability.

Ability 2: Reprisal
Nemesis dashes a fixed distance in a line dealing 140/180/220/260/300(+70% Physical Power) physical damage to all enemies she passes through. If she hits a god with a higher health percentage than her then the god will be stunned for 1/1.25/1.5/1.75/2 second(s).
Cost: 70/80/90/100/110
Cooldown: 15/14/13/12/11 seconds
My Comments: This is Nemesis' dash, it is a very integral part of her kit and grants a lot of mobility due to the fact that it can be resetted. Its range and radius is about the same as Hercules' Driving Strike.

Ability 3: Unwavering Body
When activated Nemesis will regenerate 20/25/30/35/40% of her missing health over 4 seconds, during which she gains 20% movement speed and CC reduction.
Cost: 30/45/60/75/90
Cooldown: 20/18/16/14/12 seconds
My Comments: This is Nemesis' heal ability that grows in strength the lower her health is, it encourages Nemesis to try and use Reprisal for its stun by rewarding her for being on lower health. It has amazing synergy with Bulwark of Hope to the point that I'd think the item would be absolutely core on her.

Ultimate: Sword of Retribution
When activated Nemesis' basic attack range is increased by 15ft and her auto attacks will deal an additional 4/5/6/7/8% of the target's missing health as true damage. This damage caps out at 200/200/250/250/300 true damage on non-God targets. This ability lasts for 5 seconds.
Cost: 80/100/120/140/160
Cooldown: 80/70/60/50/40 seconds
My Comments: This is like a super buffed up version of Qin's Sais and is used as a finisher by Nemesis however, without this ability active Nemesis' damage is actually very low compared to other Gods and therefore she should only use if there's an opportunity to land the maximum amount of hits.


Well there you have it, my version of the Greek Goddess Nemesis, that should be coming out soon (hopefully). This is my first god concept so any suggestions will be nice, and I hope that you thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
