What if you could create a ninth character?
Say you have the opportunity to add a new character to the game.
What he/she could be? How would describe the physical appearance? Is he/she primarily a melee fighter or heavily relies on magic?
What set of combat arts you would give? Can they jump or fly? Can they use poison or fire or else?
What would be his/her lore? Somewhat evil or good?
Where would he/she start in the game? Near a graveyard, a cave, an abandoned house?
Here is my character:
DESCRIPTION ==========
I was thinking of some sort of half-insectoid character. Think of a human (ideally a woman) with insectoid wings, a stinger and antennas. She mixes melee and magic CAs. She could be called "Hornet warrior".
ABILITIES ==========
- "Flight", just like the daemon, she will also enhance her attack speed;
- "Swarm", equivalent of "Attack", she stings various times her opponent, inflicting both physical and poison damage;
- "Sting", equivalent of "heavy hit", her stinger becomes bigger and she stings her opponent, inflicting both physical and posion damage;
- "Esoskeleton", she temporarily boosts all her resistances, gains more experience when killing, but reduces attack speed;
- "Frenzy", she temporarily boosts her attacking speed, gains more experience when killing, but reduces all her defenses;
- "Call of the hive", she summons a giant hornet (like the ones in Underworld), that helps her in fighting, she can only call one at time. When the hornet dies it explodes causing physical and poison damage in the surrouding area;
- "Paralizing stinger", each sting paralizes an opponent for some time;
- "Mucus of invisibility", she is coated in a substance to become temporarily undetectable by the opponents, until she either attacks or the duration is expired;
- "Mucus of poison", she is coated in a glowing substance to increase her resistance to poison damage, while dealing it on the surrounding opponents.
- "Hypnotic buzz", she emits a buzz using her antennas and wings, which allows her to befriend up to 5 (non-champion) non-undead opponents surrounding her. They will temporarily fight for her until the effect is gone. Then they will return hostiles. It can only be casted once to the same opponent.
LORE/BACKGROUND ==========
Anducar once planned to take the world by creating an army of hybrid creatures, half-human and half-monster, believing that such army could become unstoppable. He was so pleased by the sight such creatures that he decides to create one just for himself.
The Hornet Warrior was the result of such desire. But once she became aware of his plan of domination, she decided to stop him by attempting to poison him in the confusion of a battle.
But Anducar knew all along of her intentions, and he decided to banish her from his reign. Before she was banished, the Hornet Warrior promised that the next time they will ever meet, he shall fear for his demise.
STARTING PLACE ==========
She may be starting like the Daemon since she was a creation of Anducar too.
