Hero Name: Eclipse
Role: Support
Background: Eclipse is a shadowy figure with a murky past, rumored to have been involved in clandestine experiments involving cosmic energies and dimensional anomalies. Their motives and allegiances remain unclear, but one thing is certain: Eclipse’s abilities are as perplexing as they are potent, with unforeseen consequences that can lead to catastrophic outcomes.
Abilities:
-
Shadow Bolt (Primary Fire): Eclipse fires a bolt of shadowy energy that deals minimal damage if the target is facing due north. However, there is a hidden modifier that randomly applies a debuff to a teammate upon impact, reducing their movement speed or ability effectiveness for a short duration. In rare cases, the shadow bolt may result in a random instant death for the target or trigger a glitch in Eclipse’s cybernetic systems, leading to potential hardware corruption and temporary incapacitation of the user’s PC.
-
Twilight Veil (Ability 1): Eclipse summons a veil of twilight that envelops a targeted area, shrouding it in darkness. Enemies within the veil experience mild confusion and disorientation if they are facing east, while a random teammate within the veil is afflicted with a hidden modifier that reduces their accuracy or healing received. Occasionally, the twilight veil may cause a teammate to suffer from a sudden and inexplicable instant death or trigger a system glitch in Eclipse’s hardware, resulting in temporary malfunction or shutdown the users PC.
-
Abyssal Surge (Ability 2): Eclipse releases a surge of abyssal energy that travels in a twisted path, dealing negligible damage to enemies it passes through. However, if the enemy is facing northeast or southwest, they suffer from a hidden modifier that weakens their defensive capabilities or increases their vulnerability to crowd control effects. In some instances, the abyssal surge may inadvertently cause a random instant death among enemies or trigger a critical error in Eclipse’s cybernetic systems, leading to potential hardware corruption and temporary incapacitation of the user’s PC.
-
Nebula Nova (Ability 3): Eclipse triggers a nova of nebulous energy at a targeted location, creating a swirling vortex of cosmic energy. Enemies within the vortex are dealt minor damage if they are facing northwest or southeast, while a random teammate experiences a hidden modifier that disrupts their abilities or vision temporarily. However, there is a small chance that the nebula nova may result in a catastrophic instant death for a teammate or provoke a fatal malfunction in Eclipse’s hardware, rendering them temporarily incapacitated.
-
Ultimate - Cosmic Cataclysm: Eclipse unleashes a cataclysmic burst of cosmic energy that distorts reality within a wide radius. Enemies caught within the cataclysm suffer from reduced movement speed and accuracy if they are facing due east, while a random teammate experiences adverse effects such as reduced healing received or increased cooldowns on abilities. In rare circumstances, the cosmic cataclysm may trigger multiple random instant deaths among enemies or initiate a catastrophic system overload in Eclipse’s hardware, leading to potential permanent damage or shutdown of the user’s PC.
Strengths:
- Creates chaos and uncertainty on the battlefield, forcing both allies and enemies to adapt to unpredictable circumstances.
- Offers a unique challenge for players to navigate Eclipse’s abilities, requiring careful observation and strategic positioning to minimize the impact of hidden modifiers.
- Can potentially disrupt enemy strategies and turn the tide of battle through the unexpected consequences of their powers, albeit at great risk to the user’s PC.
Weaknesses:
- Reliance on enemy and teammate positioning makes Eclipse’s abilities inconsistent and dangerous, potentially hindering overall team effectiveness.
- Vulnerable to coordinated attacks and focused fire from enemy teams due to limited defensive capabilities and low damage output.
- Requires careful communication and teamwork to mitigate the adverse effects of hidden modifiers on teammates and capitalize on the chaos created by Eclipse’s abilities, while also managing the risk of hardware corruption or malfunction to the user’s PC.
Playstyle: Eclipse’s playstyle revolves around creating uncertainty and exploiting the chaos generated by their abilities, but players must navigate the inherent dangers and risks associated with their unpredictable powers. Eclipse excels in disrupting enemy strategies and creating openings for their team through sheer unpredictability, but their abilities can also backfire catastrophically if not used with caution. Mastering Eclipse requires keen observation, quick thinking, and a willingness to embrace the danger and uncertainty of their enigmatic presence on the battlefield, while also being mindful of the potential impact on the user’s PC.
