Can you tell me about the hero's identity? What kind of role do they facilitate and how would they be played?

Datfizh Author replied 3 years ago

This form currently intends to be an anti attack-carry. Overall design intends to fit all roles with super late-game potential, similar to Lone Druid with his capability to have 12 items.
