seeing to much focus on HOUND, barely any on bloodhound, remember its a tracker, a hunter, a killer. not specifically a dog.

@MrZombie: Bard Man just realized you got your hero's story from Batman. Very nice.

@Ghost: Fine. The official end date shall be moved to the second saturday of March. After that, no more submissions will be allowed and Bard Man will put up the poll. The end date for the poll is still up in the air, but Bard Man thinks maybe the last day of March.

@War_Wrecker: I know. It's like they just read the TITLE and just skin the rest without paying much attention.

@the1stefan: Bard Man will allow that, but you're making the same screw-up as some of the others. You read the hero's title, but skimmed over all the rest that Bard Man wrote...

if we are to make a monthly competition on these dream heroes,

i suggest a maximum of 8 heroes only, so that every hero will have a chance be voted on..

since everyone exercised their brains and everyone deserves credit for what they did..

first 8 submissions.. i think... just my opinion..

Juran - Bloodhound

Range: 110 | Move Speed: 295
Primary: STR
Str: 20 + 2 | Agi: 17 + 2.2 | Int: 15 + 1.8
Damage: 42 – 52 | HP: 530 | Mana: 195
HP Regen: 1 | Mana Regen: 0.61
Attack Speed: 1.41 | Armor: 2


Hidden within the darkness of society are people who clear away the skum to keep the world in order. They go by many titles and fight for many reasons, but none are an infamous or as feared as the Bloodhounds. Out of the view of the general populace, The Bloodhounds act as Bounty Hunters, tracking the wicked down like animals and then dragging them back to be punished. Enter Juran. A gnoll Bountry Hunter who was famed for his tracking. One day, he was approached by an odd man who wanted to test him. Juran was asked to track him for as long as he could. If he held out lng enough, a great prize would be his. The wise gnoll accepted the challenge and for many days, trailed the man. After a week had passed with Juran as his shadow, the man stopped running. The man smiled and invited Juran to become one of the elite; a Bloodhound. It was an offer he could not refuse. Fast forward ten years. Juran has been offered the ultimate test of his skills. The Sentinel wants him to bring down the Lich King. Let him run, let him hide. Juran will find him.



Mark
The thing that separates Bloodhounds from a simple Bounty Hunters is that when they choose a target, they pursue it till either they die or the mark dies. This focus on a single target gives them an edge over a marked enemy.

[1] Increases Attack Speed by 10% and damage by 15 when attacking a marked unit.
[2] Increases Attack Speed by 15% and damage by 30 when attacking a marked unit.
[3] Increases Attack Speed by 25% and damage by 45 when attacking a marked unit.
[4] Increases Attack Speed by 45% and damage by 60 when attacking a marked unit.

Note: Gives a 5% boost to movement speed when the Marked unit is within an 800 AoE at all levels. 2 second casting time. Cannot be cast again until either the Bloodhound dies or the mark dies. Core Skill

Mana Cost: 50
Cooldown: n/a



Tracking instinct
Bloodhounds are known for thier ability to find his mark no matter where he goes or what lengths he goes to to avoid capture.

[1] Allows the Bloodhound to detect a marked foe within an AoE of 800.
[2] Allows the Bloodhound to detect a marked foe within an AoE of 1000.
[3] Allows the Bloodhound to detect a marked foe within an AoE of 1200.
[4] Allows the Bloodhound to detect a marked foe within an AoE of 1400.

Note: Reveals invisible units.

Passive

Fracture
Most Bloodhounds are opposed to killing a foe for many different reasons, but they have no qualms with breaking thier arms or legs. It's alot easier to bring in a Mark after he's been disabled.

[1] 5% chance to break a foe's arm. 2% chance to break a foe's leg.
[2] 6% chance to break a foe's arm. 3% chance to break a foe's leg.
[3] 8% chance to break a foe's arm. 5% chance to break a foe's leg.
[4] 12% chance to break a foe's arm. 7% chance to break a foe's leg.

Note:
Broken Leg: slows movement by 30%
Broken Arm: Slows attack Speed by 20%
Both last 5 seconds
Can only have one each.


Capture & Collect
Bloodhound, for many reason prefer to bring in Marks alive. The most common reason is for a bonus to the mark's bounty.

[1] Captures a Marked hero with less then 10% health. Increases Bounty by 20%. Casting Time: 3.0 seconds.
[2] Captures a Marked hero with less then 15% health. Increases Bounty by 25%. Casting Time: 2.5 seconds.
[3] Captures a Marked hero with less then 20% health. Increases Bounty by 30%. Casting Time: 2.0 seconds.

Note: If the Mark is under the effects of Fracture, the casting time is reduced by half. Can only be cast on Marked units. If the target has more then the specified ammount of health, this does nothing.

Mana Cost: 200
Cooldown: 100/90/80


Bard Man thought he might as well toss his hat into the ring.

Well...even though I just got back after forever and a half, I'm in.

Jacrael Kryer - The Bloodhound

Range: 100 | Move Speed: 315
Primary: INT
Str: 17 + 1.8 | Agi: 18 + 1.9 | Int: 19 + 2.3
Damage: 42 – | HP: 470 | Mana: 535
HP Regen: 0.60 | Mana Regen: 1.1
Attack Speed: 1.35 | Armor: 3

Amongst the elite sect of bounty hunters known as the Bloodhounds, one name has remained legendary for years: Kryer. For generations the Kryer family has been the source of the most skilled trackers and hunters in the world, and Jacrael is no different. Though his tactics are of great deviation from many of his predecessors, none question his power. Since receiving an offer from the Sentinel, who were rather uneasy about his methods, Jacrael has made it his goal to continue being a credit to both his rank, and his name.

Skill 1) Blood Well
Where almost every member of the Kryer family thus far has used their skills to track targets by causing the target injury, Jacrael has taken a different route, drenching his enemy in a form of demonic blood from a source called the Blood Well, the location of which only Jacrael himself knows.

-1- Drenches the enemy in blood, slowing movement and attack speeds by 10% and renders them completely visible. Lasts 6 seconds.
-2- 15% slow, 10 second duration.
-3- 25% slow, 15 second duration.
-4- 35% slow, 20 second duration.

Mana Cost - 140
Cooldown - 10/15/20/20

Notes- Its a the equivalent of faerie fire, though it exchanges the armor decrease for a slow, which can prove effective in chasing, and in combat. RIKI BEWARE!!!

Skill 2) Blood Hunters
Though the Kryer name carries great weight with it, all Bloodhounds must be tested before they are accepted into the group. When told that his test was to find a target who had been running and covering his own trail for 3 days, Jacrael laughed and simply bit his thumb, allowing his blood to drip to the ground. Two beasts appeared, with deadly teeth and an apparent lust for blood. Jacrael spoke in an unknown language for a moment, and the beasts vanished. Only a few moments later did his target appear, running for his life from the beasts who stopped mere inches from devouring the target.

-1- Summons a single Blood Hunter to aid Jacrael. Hunters have Blood Bond.
-2- Summons 2 Blood Hunters. Hunters gain Gruesome.
-3- Summons 3 Blood Hunters. Hunters gain Frenzy.
-4- Summons 4 Blood Hunters. Hunters gain Pounce.

Mana Cost - N/A
HP Cost - 50/100/200/300
Cooldown - 60

Notes- Long story...the stats of the Hunters are at the end of this post. Lets try to keep them balanced shall we

Skill 3) Bloodhound's Will
"With great power, comes great responsibilty." (wait...what?)
With the title of Bloodhound comes a level of honor that every Bloodhound carries with them with pride. Though many don't know however, with the title also comes power. This enchantment, which has been given to Bloodhounds since its creation, is what keeps the best bounty hunters in the world, the best bounty hunters in the world.

-1- On every attack Jacrael becomes more obsessed with his target, granting him +4 attack and 4% ias.
-2- +6 attack power and 8% ias.
-3- +8 attack power and 12% ias.
-4- +10 attack power and 16% ias.

Mana Cost - N/A (Passive)
Duration - Lasts 6 seconds after each on a target, stacks indefinitely in that time period.

Notes- In production I actually nerfed this skill about 6 times...sad...Basic combat power booster, and when combined with other skills, will create someone who is nearly unstoppable in melee combat.

Skill 4) Kryer's Mark/Blood Gate
The Kryer bloodline has been at the head of the Bloodhounds for generations, and it's crest is a mark of power and honor to its descendants. In a show of his own power, Jacrael used his skills in magic to turn it into a scar etched into the very fabric of the nether. By sealing it to any target, he gains a constant awareness of their presence, and by expending a small amount of his power, can move through the scar directly to his target.

-1- Marks the target, giving "vision" of the target. During this time the Blood Gate ability becomes available, allowing teleportation to the target.
-2- Lasts 60 seconds.
-3- Lasts 90 seconds.

Mana Cost - 100/200/300
Blood Gate Cost - 100/200/300 HP

Notes- Heres how this works: Activate level 3 Kryer's Mark on...RIKIMARU!!! Riki decides he doesn't want to die today, so he runs. 45 seconds later he goes out to attack one of your teams weaker players. You see him moving on the minimap, and have vision of the area around him, but not of him. You activate Blood Gate, and bam. Now the fight is 2v1, and if timed right you can combo with Blood Well and actually be able to see him >.> . When the skill is first learned, you instantly learn Blood Gate as well, but it has no target so it has no place to go. When Blood Gate is used, the Kryer's Mark is dispelled from the target, so it must be recast before Blood Gate is used again. Only one target may have Kryer's Mark at any point.

Whew...now onto the Hunters...

Blood Hunter

Range: 100 | Move Speed: 280
Damage: 58-64 | HP: 1100 | Mana: N/A
HP Regen: 2 | Mana Regen: N/A
Attack Speed: 1.25 | Armor: 2

Blood Hunters are some of the most vicious demons ever known to man. They earned their name after it was found that they required blood to come to, and remain in, this plane of existense. This need makes them hard to command, and extremely dangerous in combat, as their bloodlust pushes them harder and harder to rip their target apart.

Note- All skills have no mana cost.

Blood Bond (Passive)
Blood is the one thing that can be used to call a Blood Hunter to this plane of existance. It is a well known fact that anyone with enough power to call a Blood Hunter should have a quarry of enough importance that the Hunter will devour it, for the cost of keeping a Hunter tied to this plane is a high one.
-Drains 10 hp per second from Jacrael unless attacking something.

Notes- balancing tactic #1: Life Draining effect.

Greusome (Passive)
Few have ever survived the attack of a Blood Hunter, but those who have speak their ferocity, their fury, and most disturbingly, their greusome figures. As these horrifying creatures attack their faces become visible, and those who face them are often paralyzed in fear.
-Attacks to the face slow the target by 10% (as/ms).

Notes- Only stacks from one Hunter to another, not with just one. i.e. One Hunter attacks the target from the front twice, 10% slow. Two attack from the front once, 20% slow.

Frenzy (Passive)
The blood from the Blood Well is that of the Fra'kror, the only known threat to Blood Hunters while in the nether. Whenever they catch the scent of its blood they go into a frenzy, increasing attack and movement speeds by 30%.

Pounce (Active)
In an act of sheer power the Hunter pounces on its target, attacking with all its might.
-Pounces onto the target from a maximum of 400 range, dealing 100 damage. Has a 25% chance to stun the target for 1 second.

Cooldown - 20

Notes- Shortest discription thus far >.> . You have a 25% chance to stun the target, so logic says that if you pounce with all your Hunters, one of them is probably going to stun. But when has dota ever been about logic?

FINALLY! I seriously just got on and read the challenge, and started chugging out this hero...I've been typing this crap out for about 2 hours now...christ...Oh, and at random it occured to me that I've been on this forum for months, commenting on hero ideas and concepts, gaining a resonable about of respect, and beginning to hate everyone, and this is my FIRST submitted hero concept. Wow...ah well, hope you like it. Nerfed, then boosted, then nerfed again 40 times in conception. YOU BETTER LIKE IT!!!

p.S. - holy crap this was long...
