Facet 1: Rifting Shard

Shard Bolt tears a minor rift on hit at the target’s position. The rift deals 50% of Shard Bolt’s damage in a 225 radius on creation and persists for 2s, slowing enemies inside by the same percentage as Shard Bolt’s slow. The rift’s slow refreshes while they remain inside.
Notes: Rift radius and damage benefit from Resonance radius and amplification.

Facet 2: Keen Resonator
-> see ability.

Description:
Oblivion Shard is a caster that trades his amount of spell output for spell power. His already longer cast times get increasingly worse as he casts, but the benefits for it make it matter: Nearly every aspect of his spellcasting is improved. It is important to balance his power and carefully decide when to reset. And to be aware that your reset and escape gets harder and harder the more you stack your innate passive. His ultimate can destroy team fights and deal immense damage, especially with more stacks, but actually hitting with it is no easy task without proper support from your team.

When the first Titans split the firmament, fragments of the void itself rained across the newborn worlds. Most of these fell as inert stone, lifeless and cold, but one shard drank deep from the fractured heavens. From this core grew an elemental unlike any other — a being not of flesh, nor of true stone, but of glassy obsidian seamed with endless night.

Legends tell of a mage who sought to bind the power of this shard, attempting to wield it as conduit. Instead, he was consumed, his will shattered and reformed into a consciousness that echoes still. From his broken spirit and the fragment’s abyssal hunger, Oblivion Shard emerged: a living fracture in reality.

It does not serve gods or mortals, but only the call of its own resonance. Wherever it moves, the air itself distorts, distances collapse, and wounds heal only to rupture anew. And when its horizon opens, not even the stars themselves can resist the pull of its annihilating beam.
