Ok, i've been looking around the forums and haven't noticed any ninjas... Though i realize it would be rather difficult for me to create a backstory for some (demi)godlike ninja I shall still attempt to.
Backstory (i'll leave it open for any suggestion or alterations)Following the events of the [enter generic village name here] slaughter, the Empire of [enter generic evil empire name here] found, that to prevent such miscommunications in the future, some measures must be taken. And thus was the Order of [enter generic secret peacekeeper order name here] created.The Order consisted of 13 of the finest warriors of the Empire. They were all overly powerful, with beastlike strength and fast instincts. They were stripped of their names and former titles and made soldiers with benefits for the Empire. The Empire used them for the assassinations of many outstanding members of the society. Thus they hoped to hold power in their own hands.With new and spectacular advances in medicine and science the Empire prospered. The Empire felt, that to keep power over the people and more importantly, over the order, they had to be given a thorough brainwashing. The Order went along with it - they were given shots to increase their strenght and agility, but at the same time to make them more obedient to their leaders.As time went on the Empires leaders aged and grew more and more suspicious of eachother, each one hoping to keep holding on to the power that they have, they sought to destroy eachother. Each one calling for the Orders full help, the control over the Order slipped. The leader of the Order - called Shin by his superiors - ordered a revolt against their former masters.He ordered his subordinates to commit suicide after the deed was done, for he was the only one to reveal the truth of their leaders and bear the burden for their heinous crimes. The community, now shocked and outraged went into panic. Shin knew, if the people were to stand, if the Empire was to stand, he had to ascend to godhood and take position as sole leader of a new Empire - the Empire of Truth.
Type: Assassin (light side)
Stats: (waiting for suggestions)
HP: 1540 (+105/lvl)
HP regen: 2.32 (+0.16/lvl)
Armor: 230 (+25/lvl)
Mana: 952 (+93/lvl)
Mana regen: 2.92 (+0.37/lvl)
Damage: 115-128 (+6.9/lvl)
Attackspeed: i have no idea of how the numbers work on this one, so i say faster than average, a bit slower than UB
Range: Melee/10(11/12) yards
Movespeed: 6.3
Skills: he would be a demigod that switches between 2 weapon styles, but instead of having 6 active abilities, he would still have have 4 (1 skill slot to change stances, 1 skill slot that changes along stances, and 2 that stay the same no matter which stancestances: switches between stances initially take 3 seconds, no cooldown
melee (sword (katana)) - regular run of the mill melee attack
ranged (shuriken(s)) - the range of these im not quite sure of, maybe a tad less than UB's venom spit and at max range not enough to hit towers attack damage of each shuriken is cut in half and each seperate shuriken is a projectile on its own (each shurikens damage is its own, allowing each shuriken to crit seperately and dodged separately, but an attack is still one attack, meaning that an attack still has the same probabilty of inflicting a status effect)
A (chemical instability, active, 1 second cast time, 20 second cooldown) - Shin injects himself with a performance enhancing drug gaining heightened strength and durability. While under the effects of this drug Shins body becomes chemically unstable and if killed while effect is active will explode dealing set amount of damage to all nearby units and buildings.
B (lightning reflexes, passive) - All those years of training have given Shin lightning reflexes, enhancing his dodge.
C (smokebomb, active, 0,5 second cast time, 25 second cooldown) - Shin throws a smokebomb at his feet creating a thick smoke cloud. Enemies caught in the smoke cloud are disoriented. Structures are uneffected.
D (slash, active, sword stance, 0,1 second cast time, 7 second cooldown) - Shin slashes targeted enemy with his sword.
E (kendo, passive, sword stance) - After practicing for many years Shins soul and sword merge, allowing Shin to execute attacks with more precision.
F (throwing mastery, passive, ranged stance) - Shin gains better control over his shurikens increasing their range and increasing number thrown.
G (stance perfection, passive) - Shin has mastered control over his weapons.
H (shuriken storm, active, ranged stance, 0,5 second cast time, 15 second cooldown) - Shin throws a flurry of shurikens in front of him in a cone, up to a range no longer than his own.
Appearance:
Anyway this is pretty much what i had in mind with his appearance, maybe would be a tiny bit taller than Regulus. (picture found on Elfwood, all legal rights held by its author)
Anyway this is pretty much the basic idea... Suggestions may be added and the material given here may be improved upon. And a factoid: shin means truth in Japanese.
EDIT: added stats and stat growth, pantheon side
Hmm ... what's about the choice between swords (sange & yasha) and some fire mittens/ fire gloves? Sange & Yasha: High damage, low attack rate.Fire Gloves: Lower damage, high attack rate.
Slash is a bad move; shuriken storm is better in every way.
The injection is interesting, but I'm confused on the final stage... So it gives him 1.5 attack for each time he injected himself, along with the other bonuses? If it lasts infinite time, why does it say it has a duration of 20 seconds?
Also, his passives are pretty nuts. The first one is a 10% damage reduction against everything (if dodges affect skill; I'm not sure). Most people don't have that kind of damage reduction passive. The second one.... well, in two ranks you get 17.5% more damage in melee range. Compare that to other damage passives, which either give a flat bonus or a lower percent (See: UB with his 10% bonus). It also combos really well with the injection, because it gives you a big extra bonus.
I don't think there would be a point to that because switching melee for melee is kind of pointless, the stance switch wouldnt serve a purpose.
What i meant for shuriken storm was that there is no way that all the shurikens hit one person, so it would rather be used in team battles or as an anti army ability. The 10% dodge is pretty much a skill you'd want to invest in, tho im not sure if it dodges abilities because so far i havent seen a fireball been dodged. And what i meant with the +1.5 damage each injection is that the initial +90 damage on cast remains the same for 20 seconds, but you get a permanent damage bonus until you die. And i was thinking he wouldn't have much HP or HP regen for that matter and lower than average damage, but a bit higher than average attackspeed. And i thought about giving slash a chance to slow (alot) when striking the vitals, but that would make it kind of unbalanced IMO (the same thought occured for shuriken storms poison but ohwell). Also notice the higher cooldown on shuriken storm.
And as I said: Suggestions may be added and the material given here may be improved upon. This is just the basic idea. And i would like to add that any thoughts or opinions are highly welcome and anticipated.
No ninjas....no.....
cool idea though:)
Well it wouldn't have to be a ninja per se, but i'd like my idea of skills and stuff to remain the same. The backstory can go down the tubes for all i care, it bites i know.
Tbh the hairstyle of the so-called ninja reminds me of Aztecs.
no
ninjas
Be sure to add this to the Demigod Master List. The more demigods we have on this list the better chance we can get it pinned up on the forums.
Demigod Master List
Added base stats and stat growth. More comments and opinions would be appreciated.
slash ... wow ... super strong...and for minimal energy cost. id give that skill the equivilant of maxed bat swarm which i think is around 1250 mana.
You put alot of cool ideas into this ive made a few silly 'builds' for your charactor...
Builds
The Surprise! we win! WTFBBQQ! Build:
a build only for the most skilled of morons. the tactic is simple. get skill A to level 5 plant yourself at your Regen crystal and spam spam spam. after several hours the stackage should ensure that enemy demigods are blown of there feet in one hit. leaving you to run to the enemy citadel, die, and blow it up from hours of +20 stacks to your death explosion.
The Critstorm
a very weak build. but when aided with the propper team mates. can devestate enemys with massive attacks while they are stunned.
fully max out skills A, D, E and G Buy: slayer wraps, Duelists Cruirass, mageslayer and if possible *gasps* Ashkandor
with slash and your insane passive Xdmge abilitys and Xdmge items to aid you. you should be a walking Rook hammer slam- per second, but with out the slam and more of the SLASH cut SLasHiness... yeah.
haha peace.
Heheh, funny builds ^^!
The game would need to be with the silly options too like fast gold, slow warrank, fast exp. Otherwise you would probably get around halfway. What i intended with skill A (chemical instability) level 5, is that it would be but a minor scaling ability in a longlasting game. Without a game that would last 2 hours the stacking damage bonus would be rather low. Skill G (stance perfection) needs both skills E and F to be maxed out, kind of like Torchys "Fire and Ice", and has only one level.
Thanks for the (probably) positive(?) feedback though! There's always room for more improvement and when i decide to get off my lazy ass i'll more precisely compare the skills to already existing demigods similar skills to see the relations between damage/mana/cooldown/casttime. (And ofcourse update the information (+ story... i think^^))
Well only two real problems. You would have to make sure that even with the range bonus that he couldn't outdistance towers. 2 light charecters being able to do that would kill pantheon. And are you seriously doubling and then tripling his damage with shurikens with two skill points? Either make bonous shurikens do significantly less damage or only throw every 4-5 attacks.
