need hero concept for coastal conflict...

for the ones who havnt checked out our project yet, click the link on my sig. there you will find info about gameplay and the exact story line. all i´m going to say here is:
...it will be an eos (like dota), but with some surprisning and fresh new gameplay ideas.
...the two sides that wil be fighting will be Maiev´s watchers and Illidan´s Forces
...Illidans forces is Blood Elf, Naga and Sea related stuff.
...Maievs Watchers will be corrupted night elves and undead. so no nature-druid or burning legion stuff... please read the story line what the sig leads to, it will enlighten you about why the hell we combined the watcher with undead. believe me, it DOES make sense.

we have sorted out allmost all heros, eccept for one: we need one more strength hero for Maievs Watchers... (oh yeah, and we still have some openings for skill here and there... could use some suggestions on those...)

heros so far:

Maiev:

The Intelligent

-the Soul Revenant- (revenant skin)
purpose: supportive/damage dealer

- Mana Drain - Drains the mana of enemy unit
- Mana Share (needs cool name) - gives an x amount of mana to target friendly unit

Offensive caster.

-Frost Nova-
-Blizzard in a small area of effect, dealing great damage (needs name)
- Open Spot, maybe something like frostbite -

-schriek- decreases enemy armor in an AoE arround the banshee
-Fallen Souls- Calles back the souls of fallen warriors to fight for her.
-Posess-(ultimate) gain permanent control over target unit.

-the Agile-

-Maievs Pupil-

-Dark Valkhyres-(Ultimate) summones two valkhyre wardens, o aid Maievs Pupil.

-Knife Thrower- (old warden skin)

-poison knife- throws a poisoned knife to deal damage over time.
-fan of knifes-
-...-
-throwing mastery-(ultimate) instead of one, the knife thrower throws two knifes with each attack

-Ghost Ranger-
ranged

-Distract- sommones a little ghost that floats around targets head, distracting target creature, giving target creature a chance to miss.
-Phase Shift- Shifts out of existence for an X amount of time, she cant cast spells, attack or be attacked. she can move through objects.
-Dark Arrows- achants the dark rangers arrows with black magics, increasing damage.
-Ghost Form- enteres the spirit realm, making her etherial to units in the 'real' world. in this form she will still be able to use her Dark Arrows...

-the Strong-

-Scarabian Mauler-
tank

-hack/maul- slams mighty arms to target enemy unit/building, dealing damage to the target and splash damage to units around it.
-swarm of lucusts (or maybe the latin word for 'bugs')- releases a deadly swarm of insects, damaging enemies and healing the mauler
-spiked carpace-
-plant eggs- plants three eggs into target non-hero unit, soon to hatch into magots who eat the target from within. when the target is fully consumesd three young scarabs will erupt from the corpse. the scarabs have no timer and have the burrow ability.

-Horseman of the apocalypse-

-spirit voult- openes a link between the real world and the deamon world, cousing angry souls to flow out of it and attack any unit within range. unable to stay very long in the real world, these ghosts will soon go back through the portal from wich they came.
-army from beond-calls forth masses of dead soldiers to fight for the horseman of the apocolypse.
-apocalyptic aura- increases the damage of the horseman of the apocalypse and that of units arond him.
-dismount-(ultimate) the horseman steps down from his horse, leaving him slower but more capable of dealing damage becouse he can better swing his mighty blade. the dismounted horseman will deal mad damage, and have critical strike, damage and magic resistances. the riderless horse will have an aura that greatly boosts the damage of nearby heros. the horse is weak but spell immune.

-3rd hero-
-?-no idea... but he should be able to stop hoards of enemies with stuns or other methods... mabe some shockwave related stuff as well. Go wild on this one.

what we need is:
some name suggestions and skill suggestions for the missing skills...
a reskin of frostmourne wielding arthas and a riderless horse to look like a DK and a DK's horse.
some trigger or thing that will make the Ghost Ranger be able to fire her Black Arrows while in etherial form.
suggestions on yet another tank for Maiev.

please post your ideas/critics/feedback, Illidan soon to come.

Allrightie, on to Illidans side.

This hero is totally non-inspired. Its just a hero with skills from other aeons.... and wc3/ Flame cone: rain of fire with diffrent skin
Flaming armor: molten barrier (dota)
Warmth aura: brilliance aura with a other name in a tank???
phoenix with a tank???

please.....

this means you quited dota: old skool?

yes. this gives us much more freedom to do what we want, its much more creative. dota oldschool was just some 'hero practice' ;)

follow the link in my sig and read at least the whole of the first post. U'll see that this game has some really interesting options...

but seriously, we need that hero, so if anyone has a really inspiering idea...

note that not just all ideas are 'eccapted', we've rejected quite a few allready, we just want really kewl and original concepts, but not all too complicated.

I think this is on the wrong forum, isn't it.......


And I don't get how your ideas are sorted, could ou explain me that....?

i think it belongs here because he's asking for a concept of a hero.

so yea... it may belong here since this is the concept art forum or it may belong in the request forum but i think it better belongs here.

The Lord
Hero of Confusion

skillz to be derived from title.

ROLF!!!

aah well... just kill the thread then.. doesnt look like anyone has any inspired ideas, or even comments on the current ones...:(

You could always "borrow" one of the hero concepts from the TOB forums... they have a lot of talent there as well... just credit the author.

icbm1987

concept, eh? i have a drawing a made of some huge hulking zerg type thing, but it vould be an undead strength hero. all i have is an idea for the look, but would require a custom model or a reskinning of an abomination might work... ill post the picture soon, like within the hour from thsi post.

I can do dump Loth into the Spellbreaker suit...

ok, nevermind, i cant get the pic up...:(

lol i though this thread was dead... and i dont really need any concepts anymore.

i would, however, like too see loth in a spellbreaker or bloodmage suit... lol make him look irritated at those damn things buzzing his head lol...

heres that pic i mentioned a few replies back. Here it is anyway, just to show it off (i guess)
