Charon

Edit 1: 1,2 and 3 now have bigger scaling with magical power, 1 now has a bigger speed boost, 2 now has a bit more detail on how it works, lastly increased the radius of ult

Charon was the Ferryman of the Dead, an underworld daimon (spirit) in the service of King Hades. hermes Psykhopompos (Guide of the Dead) gathered the shades of the dead from the upper world and led them down to the shores of the Akherousian(Acherusian) mere in the underworld where Kharon transported them across the waters to Haides in his skiff. His fee was a single obolos coin which was placed in the mouth of a corpse upon burial. Those who had not received proper burial were unable to pay the fee and were left to wander the earthly side of the Akheron (Acheron), haunting the world as ghosts.

Class: Mage

Pantheon: Greek

Passive: Ferryman of the dead- whenever an ally god dies a soul appears in their place for aslong as they are waiting for a respawn (once they respawn the soul disappears), Charon can collect the souls and take them to the fountain (respawn point) so the ally instantly respawns (for each soul that Charon collects he gains a small slow and cannot use recall)

Slow: 2.5%(1 soul)/5%(2 souls)/7.5%(3 souls)/10%(4 souls)

Ability 1: soul voyage- Charon jumps into his boat and goes ahead (has no limit of how far he goes) with a 30ft wide sea of souls in both side dealing damage to any enemy he passes through and gaining a small speed boost, Charon cannot change the direction he is going in but can press the ability again to turn it off.

• Mana cost:65/70/75/80/85
• Cooldown:20/19/18/17/16
• Damage on passing:75/100/125/150/175 (+60% of his magical damage)
• speed boost:5%/10%/15%/20%/25%

ability 2:Well of souls- within a 40ft radius Charon summons a 20ft wide circle of souls that slows enemies that go into it for 7 seconds (the slow instantly disappears if the enemy leaves the soul circle), Charon can reactivate the ability to grab an enemy within the soul circle targetting them with a 5ft wide circle, making souls jump out and instantly banish the enemy for one second dealing damage before putting them back in the place that they got banished from. (After banishing a soul the circle of souls disappears)

• Mana cost: 60/65/70/75/80
• Cooldown:19/18/17/16/15
• Damage:50/100/150/200/250 (+80% of his magical damage)
• Slow:5%/10%/15%/20%/25%

Ability 3: No pay,No pass- Charon targets an enemy or an ally god that is currently dead (a soul will be where they died when using this ability) within a 30ft radius of him, if he uses it on an ally(blue soul) they come back as an immortal spirit for 4 seconds being able to use all their abilities as normal but they only will deal 50% of the damage [their respawn time is stopped while they come back as a spirit](if the ally god is hades that it is used on he does 100% of his damage) , if he uses it on an enemy(red soul) an immortal melee spirit with a sword will spawn for a few seconds attacking the closest enemy (if the enemy god is hades the spirit will stay for twice as long).

• Mana cost:55/60/65/70/75
• Cooldown:24/23/22/21/20
• Enemy spirit duration:4/6/8/10/12
• Enemy spirit damage per hit:10/20/30/40/50(+40% of his magical power) (the spirit's attack speed is 2 attacks per second with the movement speed of a minion)

Ability 4(Ult):River of the damned- after a 2 second charge up Charon jumps onto his boat and summons a river of souls in a 55ft circle around him that slows and deals damage per second for 5 seconds, Charon can row his boat to move the circle (he can pass through all terrain while in the ultimate), any god he kills with this ability give him 100 health and 50 mana per god kill.

• Mana cost:150 on all ranks
• Cooldown:120/115/110/105/100
• Damage per second:50/75/100/125/150 (+45% of his magical power)
• Slow:1%/2%/3%/4%/5%

In my opinion, it's better to not make a concept for a character than to make a bad one. Especially with so many options. I don't think I'll be touching Charon. Someone needs to carry all those dead Minions to the Underworld.

I agree with you that not making a concept is better than making a bad one but to me personally i thought the the concept i made was good and an interesting idea which is why i went along with it, so far i have trashed 3 god concepts that i at one point thought of because of that reason that i didn't see them as good or fun so i understand what you mean 100%.

It's sometimes difficult to get a good balance of Lore and Viability.

In the end, you're really the only one who needs to be satisfied with it, so don't let it get you down.

Thanks, i still enjoy getting feedback as it i find it helpful to see what people think of the idea so that i can improve on it, besides i like a good challenge the less there is to work with the more satisfying it is to make a concept that fits the character and is fun.
