Nirashala, Mistress of the Light Rage Angels. She and her clan of heavanly servants were attacked by the burning legion in it's efforts to gain dominion over the universe. They succumbed to it's terrible might and were all imprisoned. Her sisters knew that there would be no escape for all of them so they decided that she, being their leader and strongest should be helped to escape. They gave their life force to her so that she could have the collective power to escape the legions' clutches and find a new world to live on. She decided on landing on Azeroth where she found the scourge. She witnessed the atrocities that they committed on the helpless races of Azeroth. In a blind rage she stormed their citidel at Ice crown. Soon she found that they were the spawn of that which had destroyed her people. Balanar one of the dreadlords sent to help terminate the Sentinals recognized her relation to the others that his kin had consumed. He led a campaign to kill her and obtian her powers. Seeing that she was outnumbered she tried to escape from the scourge. They chased here all over the world and at one point they nearly killed her. But, She was able to escape at the cost of her precious wings. Woe stricken and battered she wandered into the convelesence of the Sentinals base at Darnassus. Seeing their kindness she could tell that there were indeed other angels and that her new place was among the Night Elves of Azeroth. Thereafter she vowed to eliminate the scourge and devoted her life to the sentinals.

Mana Cost: 100/125/160/195
Cooldown: 24/22/20/16

Framework: Nirashala performs an attack that is animated like a blade master scoring a critical strike. The time damage then shows above the target's head like a shadow strike.

Notes: This spell will be her melee power attack much like enchant totem.

Dark Memories ()
Nirashala haunted by the memories of her fallen sisters is constantly reminded of their painful demise, but in particular when she is struck where her wings used to be she has a chance of those memories resurfacing and causing a momentary mental melt down. Lasts for 5 seconds or 3 attacks.
Level 1 - 7% chance when struck from behind and a 4% chance otherwise to gain 6% attack speed and 13% bonus damage.

Passive
Mana Cost: --
Cooldown: .5

Framework: Sort of like bristleback where it activates dependent on direction off attack.

Notes: Response to quick attacking opponents.

Heavanly Conflict (H)

effects only enemy heroes.
Mana Cost: 90/130/160/190/220
Cooldown: 25/23/21/18

Framework: Nirashala would perform tiny's toss skill on both herself and the enemy then she will attack once and enemy will land and recieve the effects of the spell.

Notes: This gives Nirashala a chasing move.

Terminate (T)
Nirashala, having lost dear friends cannot bear anymore losses. She builds up rage and charges toward her allie's killer. Striking all enemies in her path.
Level 1 - Nirashala charges across the field of battle to terminate her foe. Swinging her great blade furiously she harms everyone in her path dealing 120 damage to them. When she reaches her target she strikes them with great force dealing 200 damage. If Nirashala is within range of the hero that killed an allied hero she will automatically move in for the kill and gain a bonus 100 damage on her attack.
Level 2 - Nirashala charges across the field of battle to terminate her foe. Swinging her great blade furiously she harms everyone in her path dealing 140 damage to them. When she reaches her target she strikes them with great force dealing 250 damage. If Nirashala is within range of the hero that killed an allied hero she will automatically move in for the kill and gain a bonus 150 damage on her attack.
Level 3 - Nirashala charges across the field of battle to terminate her foe. Swinging her great blade furiously she harms everyone in her path dealing 160 damage to them. When she reaches her target she strikes them with great force dealing 300 damage. If Nirashala is within range of the hero that killed an allied hero she will automatically move in for the kill and gain a bonus 200 damage on her attack.
Level 4 - Nirashala charges across the field of battle to terminate her foe. Swinging her great blade furiously she harms everyone in her path dealing 180 damage to them. When she reaches her target she strikes them with great force dealing 350 damage. If Nirashala is within range of the hero that killed an allied hero she will automatically move in for the kill and gain a bonus 250 damage on her attack. (Scepter)

This will be an auto cast spell that can be toggled so that it doesn't interupt play and it will be able activatable within 5 seconds of a hero being killed and within 500 AOE of the killer. If the range exceeded the chance will be lost.
Mana Cost: 150/250/350/300
Cooldown: 90/90/90/80

Framework: This will operate much like the nerubian weaver's sukuichi but it will not be invisble and it will look more like the faceless voids time walk. Nirashala will be invulnerable during her charge to prevent people from cheating her out of her ultimate.

Notes: This will be the ultimate support spell when this hero is the only melee hero on a team of gushies. The 4th values on the cool down and mana cost are the modifications that Aghanims will make to the spell if held.

Discussion:

Nirashala - Fallen Sereph

Discussion (Thats code for me telling you why she isn't imba)

Nirashala is a strong hero with the portential of becoming an incredible power house. She moves very quickly and hits for a lot of damage due to her inability to stun. She could be used as tank as well as a good team player because she has the power to retaliate against anything that kills an ally and is able to reach them quickly to finish the job or begin a new one.

Skill Synergies:

Sereph strike can be activated before Terminate is activated then it will carry over to the hero that is terminated.

Sereph Strike can be activated in conjunction with Dark memories to create a quick, highly empowered attack.

Heavanly Conflict can be used to stun and damage an enemy who is trying to escape after killing a teammate then you can terminate them while they are stunned.

Changelog:

2007-02-14: Reduced the mana costs on Sereph Strike and Heavanly Conflict to make Nirashala less mana dependeent. Also Increased stat gains per level and improved starting intellect.

Fragile hero. Skills compensate for fragility. High manacost, power compensates for manacost. Late-gamer, item dependent. Nice hero all in all. Beware of Mana-loss and return damage.

2 By Shimrra_3 2007-02-14

I'm with yukino on all that, and I reckon you should make her a bit bulkier. What little stats there are... they're kinda messed up. Should have more stat gains and DEFINITELY more base stats, especially INT. Perhaps an overall increase of .2 each or something, and another.. 4-7 base INT. I like the abilities, but maybe they could be nerfed so you don't have lotsa things over 200 mana cost. I'll rate it after more views.

3 By donatboy 2007-02-14

agree with shimra, icrease stat growth per lvl, increase each stats growth per lvl by 0.3

4 By ejcena 2007-02-14

Nah i think this hero is great!
because that third skill was the original. Dota makers didn't make or even think that skill! impressive!

5 By nthomas5143 2007-02-14

Ive got a question. Is her ultimate dependent on an allie dying or can u activate it on any target. And is it a forced charge on an allies killer or is it just u target them and do extra damage?
All in all a good hero, high damage but fragile, nice berserker build.

6 By drew 2007-02-14

Quite cool. And I like the 3rd skill too. 9/10

7 By Ghosty 2007-02-14

pretty good hero... oh, and drew i wonder if my hero is goeing to be accepted... ............hope to see this hero in battle

8 By BashUmDead 2007-02-14

OK, Nirashala's ult is just like a massive blink strike and it has a toggled multicast that allows it to respond to dead allies. You can turn off the multicast so that it does not interrrupt your game play. So basically it cna be used for normal nuke and then bonus if the target kills your teammate.

9 By BashUmDead 2007-02-14

Auto cast not multi cast ***

10 By nthomas5143 2007-02-15

Thanks for clearing that up. 9/10

11 By Shimrra_3 2007-02-15

12 By BashUmDead 2007-02-16

13 By Shimrra_3 2007-02-17

sorry, I have to advertise my hero.. I fixed him up now, someone look at him plz?

14 By Greedygood 2007-02-20

I don't get the portrait...is that a face? Looks like a key stabbed a white/yellow/gray blanket...

15 By BashUmDead 2007-02-21

It's a silver helmet with a white cloth face cover with yellow eyes inside....best thing like angel i could find.

16 By hiromico 2007-02-23

Nice hero, cool story..... everything seems balanced.

17 By eggy 2007-02-23

Pretty strong hero...Too GOOD to be true...

18 By destitude7316 2007-02-23

i like this hero she sounds like fun to play with...
iam gonna say 8/10...

still a lil confused about her ultimate... i just dont get it

19 By aboardboy 2007-02-23

abit imba too me though nice story lol

20 By BashUmDead 2007-02-24

Ok, the ultimate is like borrowed time in that it can be activated automatically without player's clicking it. Borrowed time activates at a minimum health, this activates when an ally is killed. But since it moves you without consent you are able to toggle it's autocasting to prevent it from affecting gameplay or getting you killed. It can also be used when a hero hasn't died but if you use it after a hero has died your attack is nearly doubled. I hope that explains it.

22 By Firesky 2007-02-25

1st skill is imbalanced a little

ulti has a good concept but it has wayy 2 many flaws 1)if ally is ganked u get thrown into it so ....gank got a double kill
2)if u need to heal and ur running back u get thrown across the map and u could die getting back
3)u can get diverted from what ur doing

and does it really need a cooldown ?????
neway review ur ulti change it up maybe it willl help

23 By Mrjolly87 2007-02-26

24 By BashUmDead 2007-02-26

wow, how many times do i have to say AUTOCAST that means you choose if it's active, lol please read my previous posts about the ulti....

25 By MAJ 2007-03-02

I think this is a really good hero I would definitly play it if they put it in dota

26 By WAR_WICK 2007-03-09

can yah gimme a shout if you've already made this hero yet or if you'd mind i'd like to make a model prototype of this hero (i'll just have to steal your sweet icons though)what'a yah say? oh and 10/10

27 By WAR_WICK 2007-03-09

sory i didn't add this before but wouldn't it be a better effect if for "sereph strike" for the bleed damage use the same as strgyr's(bloodseeker) rupture animation and an icon of bleeding??? check it out if you've got time...

28 By WAR_WICK 2007-03-09

Man i really need to post together but- i reckon her ultimate (Terminate) needs much MUCH more range say about 1000 level 1 ,2000 level 3 ??? or it'd be impracticle 500? whats the chances?

Heavonly Conflict-why only heroes? it isn't overpowered so maybe the target and a second unit at level 1? each level adds 2 more possible targets per cast? so level 4: 10 hit??? or maybe change to 1 per level for 6 (including target) ??? i'm really interested in this idea-LESSA MAKE IT A REALITY!!!

29 By B_lit_Z 2007-03-13

PLZ no str. heroes wid scepter !! na not good.. it does not allow other items to cum in fast!1 plz cmment on this

30 By BashUmDead 2007-03-13

i got grossed when i read your message dude lol its come not cum >_< , and str can have scepter , all of the spells are heavy mana spenders and it would improve her damage ult and mana capacity. Also scepter would be last, because it has the lease effect without the other items coming first, so it would not impede item progress.

31 By disasteromz 2007-03-14

Is it just me or the name of the hero is in typo? Fallen Sereph instead of Seraph (nahulog sa sarap ) But I like the idea of having an angelic hero in DotA, not just demons, devils, undeads, etc.

I just noticed a possible problem with this hero if ever it will be included in the future map, coz most of his skills have very long descriptions. Is there a limit for this? I think this should be summarized IMHO.

32 By BashUmDead 2007-03-14

Well if u look at skill tool tips, when you go into the bunus hero skill menu the tooltips are sometimes massive but once they are in the action bar they are pretty small. so i don't think it will matter too much.

@(War_wick if this is the medium that you expected me to respond to you on then i say ok and check your messages i have a longer message i sent yuh!)

33 By zigeo 2007-03-19

oh boy, great hero idea, ~9 for it. Terminate is ownage, great if enemies ate bunched up, and great overall abilities... great hero idea.

34 By WAR_WICK 2007-03-23

me...AGAIN sorry about the whole hammer but really a sword thing (sereph strike's icon is a hammer0 and i justfound a M E A N A S Warcraft III art/model editor just i need to get photoshop pro ($600 for a cheap illegal download >

36 By f1rstwizard 2007-06-26

41 By cham1259 2007-11-14

great hero! I like her!

42 By AXCELACCEL 2007-11-27

nice hero

43 By KrayZspYne 2008-01-25

average, nothing more, nothing less goodjob^^

44 By folechno 2008-08-15

great background story, best I've read yet

base stats and stat gains are fine, have noted that int gain is higher than str but will comment on that after I read the rest

seraph strike needs a new hotkey, s is for stop

is seraph strike melee? is it her bae attack that gets amplified or does it amplify damage like Orchid?

mana cost and cooldown are balanced, as it the dps from the effect

Dark Memories needs a hotkey, cool effect, nice flavor, does this apply to spells as well? or

45 By folechno 2008-08-15

just physical attacks?

heavenly conflict needs a new hotkey, h is for hold

nice flavor, cool effect, damage is fine as it the bonus damage and the stun, what is the casting range? is it melee or nor?

terminate is cool, is the casting range 500? ot is that the range for the bonus damage? the mana costs and cooldown are a little high imo, yes it can deal lots of damage but it is very situational, otherwise it's just a 300 damage blink strike

for the seraph strike terminate combo will

46 By folechno 2008-08-15

the 175% modifier be applied to the 300 bonus damage? or just the normal attack?

so she seems more like an int hero than a str hero, I recommend you chaneg her primary attribute, the stats can all stay the same them

as she is right now, it will be hard to buy items sicne she is a str hero but needs mana for her skills, all around items like Skadi and Linkens would be good, and vlads could be lifesteal with the skadi

if she was int then you could focus more on int items, would probably

47 By folechno 2008-08-15

get guinsoo, euls, orchid, maybe shivas

she would have less damage than other int heroes but she would also have more hp

allies are good, enemies are good, you should include mana burners though since she doesn't have much mana or mana regen

creative, nice flavor, balanced abilities 9/10

48 By willroxurworld 2008-11-05

wow nice ulti good to get those killers who run away with 50 hp and nice escape skill
