Okay I'm currently writing a sci-fi book called "Apocalypse" and I just realized that the main character could be a good champion.

Reaper, Rider of the Pale Horse

Reaper is a champion that uses an energy scythe in battle, wears a mix of cloth and armor for maximum movement and protection, and rides a mechanical pegasus, Despair.

Lore:
Reaper is a man shrouded in mystery, all people truly know about this hooded figure is that he rides on a mechanical pegasus that can help Reaper in battle whether it be for attack or manuverability. Most believe he is likely from Zuan as he has been seen to be friendly towards the Machine Herald, Viktor. When he was in the city Piltover Reaper saw his chance to show the power of his techmaturgy, he never expected that he would be stopped by the Sheriff of Piltover and the Piltover Enforcer. Reaper would have died if it wasn't for Viktor and because of this Reaper has promised that he would help his friend with his liberation. Reaper has teamed up with Viktor in order to take over Piltover and to destroy the two who detroyed him, Caitlynn and Vi. Reaper is a cold and sadistic person who believes that humans are weak and that machines rule.

"He will be the liberation of techmaturgy, this I know"

Edit: okay finally have an idea what the ult would look like, took me awhile to find a picture but I think this statue of the archangel Michael will be the best way to explain my idea on what the ult would look like. (just replace the sword with the scythe). Can't find a good picture of a mechanical pegasus I'm fond of so I'm using the closest one I found, which is from megaman starforce.

please comment on this

I like the idea of replacing the horse with either a giant mechanical or living and battle-armored turtle (tortoise).

Maybe name the turtle or champion something funny.

Eh...Not to sound like an ass but I'm not sure. I guess I would need to read the "Lore". Could be a good idea but right now all I can see is a Hecarim skin. :3

yeah this is still a work in progress so if you want to help me come up with lore for him I'd appreciate it

Saw this in the Champ Review thread, figured I would give it a shot! Its long, I hope its helpful!

I feel like the core concept of the champion is having a bit of an ID crisis; In Runeterra there are two technological centers, Zaun and Bandle City iirc. At this point I'm trying to make the core feel more unique, let me explain.

Reaper is in a strange place, were unless you can make him feel different from a 'Mecha Hecarim' skin; he might just look and feel a bit to similar. You could make him a Yordle riding a Mecha horse, but to me, that feels like Rumble. But I do have an idea!

Zuan is a pretty messed up place (Urgot, Twitch, Mundo, Singed) But I think you could pull off the pestilent/pale horse (from the 4 horsemen of the Apoc I assume) as a more fighter type character; think a Melee Mundo/Twitch hybrid. I personally was thinking of some animal form(dog?), with a mechanical exoskeleton and a twisted organic body underneath.

If that is getting a bit too far away from your original concept I request apologies, and will bring it back to your creation.

As far as your abilities, the passive feels a bit uninspired and is the extra dmg based off AD or AP? Physical or Magical damage?

I suggest adding some CC to the charge.

You say that Death Vapor poisons the enemy, what exactly does this poison do? Slow? DoT? %HP or flat amount? Reduced healing? I think a poison debuff that interacts with is passive could be pretty rad!

I really like the Ult! But if he looses the mechanical horse, wouldn't a Move speed decrease make more sense? Bonus armor and AD or AS since it becomes battle armor; meaning that when you hit that Ulti, everyone knows, Sh-t just got real!

You could do a bit of number crunching to see if the +AS and -AD on your ult is worth the trade (DPS wise) also.

Can I help with anything else?

And I would like to request your input on my newly designed Champion, Catherine, a Tank/Support

Hello Tael Zenith

I have read your comment a few times and I have taken to account some things, So I have decided to talk to Gojira about the Passive, We have changed it and we have decided that it was kinda too overused as to almost every champion hits more as their passive, so we decided to go to more ''Rise of the Thorns'' way.

I am at the moment the only one that is working on the project that is awake, and I am gonna take some of this time to modify some of the things in a little note I have here to see if Gojira would like them, yet again. Do not forget we appreciate you helping us and you have given me an Idea, for that my good sir, I thank you.

I went to check Catherine out, I will comment in your forum and I will tell you what I think about her abilities and such, I hope I can help as much as you have helped me to come up with the ideas I have come up with.

If you would like, I can post some of my ideas to the abilities over here in this thread and let you guys discuss how much you like the idea of each one being changed, of course I will always take in count every one of the suggestions people give, so come over and fill me up with ideas.

Other than that. Thanks Tael Zenith for helping us.
