Rip and tear

TYPE autocast

DAMAGE physical

TARGET MODE none

Den Mother violently rips into her enemy with her next attack, dealing a bonus damage and causing her target to bleed. Bleeding enemies take damage overtime and are revealed to Den Mother with true sight. -Each instance of Rip and tear is separate, dealing damage separately and having its own duration. -Damage is dealt every 0.5 seconds. -Like all DOT's in Dota, Rip and tear's damage stays the same when enemy status resistance is lowered, but the damage tick rate is slowed to match the increased duration (this is important of Lament).

Lament

TYPE active

DAMAGE none

TARGET MODE none

Den Mother cries in lament over her lost cubs, weakening enemies around her with her sorrow and the fear of facing her wrath. They are slowed and have their status resistance reduced. -Lament itself benefits from the status resistance reduction. This means that at max level the true duration of lament is 5.2 (7.8 with talent) seconds.

Den Mother can attack ethereal targets when she is dead, but cannot attack debuff immune targets. Den Mother has reduced vision while she is in spirit form. Enemies cannot interact with the spirit.

IDEA DESCRIPTION

Explained by the author.

Den mother is a durable melee strength hero who won't stay dead for long. Even when she's taken down her indomitable spirit remains, reducing her death timer with each of her ethereal claw swipes. She can apply stuns and slows, which last longer if enemies are affected by Lament. Den mother can grant vision over an enemy for a long duration while also bleeding them, the duration (but not the damage) of the bleed can be further increased by Lament. Her ultimate gives her passive damage reduction, and makes her return from death as a spirit to reduce her own death timer. Facet ideas for when the website allows for it: Massive Impact: Body Slam slows enemies in a larger area around it. This is how it currently works. Grants Den Mother improved crowd control capabilities. Smell of Blood: Rip and Tear has a longer cooldown and deals reduced damage over time, but Den Mother gains bonus attack speed versus bleed enemies.

LORE & HISTORY

Unveil the backstory and characteristics of this idea.

The womenfolk of the ursa race are much more feral than their male counterparts, and their ferocity only increases with each cub they lost. Marusha, the Den Mother was hibernating when her den got demolished by an ongoing war. She got buried along with her newest litter, suffocating under the dirt and the fumes of the mightiest Keen siege engine. But as she felt her cubs grow cold immortal fury burned within her. And so not even death could take her. Vengeance must come first, she will not pass till no den mother will suffer her pain ever again.
