Codicier Hyroniemus, Deathwatch Librarian


Skill 1: Deep Strike [Innate - Activated]

Quote:

Space Marines are frequently deployed from strike cruisers and battle barges. This enables them to keep reserves on-ship and bring them into action by Thunderhawk gunship, teleportation or, in this case, by drop pod. (Spawns a Homing Beacon upon Hyroniemus' death. Invulnerable, invisible. Has 'Return to HQ' ability. Map-wide 'Blink', 10 min cooldown. Hyroniemus will respawn on the beacon instead of HQ. I think his other abilities should be disabled for afew seconds after respawning so he doesn't land in the middle of a fight and use his Ultimate on some unlucky fool. Atleast give them a chance to run.)

Skill 2: Uphold His Honour [Cast]

Quote:

The calm, cold voice of Hyroniemus echoes out over the din of battle, "Trust in the Emperor at the hour of battle. Trust to Him to intercede, and protect His warriors true as they deal death on alien soil. Turn their seas to red with the blood of their slain. Crush their hopes, their dreams and turn their songs into cries of lamentation. We shall uphold the honour of the Emperor, to the last." With this unconditional, spine-chilling vow, Hyroniemus leaves no doubt in not only the minds of his soldiers, but in the enemies' minds, who will be the ultimate victor. (Medium AoE. This sacred oath inspires allied troops to fight with new fervor. +ATK dmg/speed for X seconds.)

Skill 3: Fires of the Immaterium [Cast]

Quote:

(Hyroniemus unleashes the power of the Warp, igniting the very air around targetted enemy unit. Burns targetted enemy, deals minor AoE damage around target for X seconds. Slightly reduces armor to targetted only.)

Skill 4: Familiar [Summon]

Quote:

(Summons a Servo-Skull attuned to Hyroniemus' mental signature. Boosts his INT and LoS (1k, Flying). Non-controllable. Medium ranged attack. Auto-attacks enemies within range.)

Skill 5: Vortex of Doom [Ultimate - Cast]

Quote:

Opening a tear between the material realm and the howling destruction of the Warp, the Librarian's enemies are destroyed by the twisting energies unleashed. But such power comes at a price, and to lose control of it, even for a moment, is to invite terrible consequence. (AoE around Hyroniemus. "Perils of the Warp", X % to suffer the same effects as enemies caught in the Vortex. Pulls all enemies caught in AoE towards Hyroniemus. Creeps that reach Hyroniemus are instantly killed, heroes that reach Hyroniemus suffer Mana Burn for X % of their max mana for the duration of the Vortex spell. Tainted by contact with the Immaterium, enemy heroes are Slowed for X seconds after end of Vortex.)

awesome, thanks XD its easier to sift through like this.

also, a note, at day, heroes have the max vision range of 1800, so theres no way to increase that. i could advising giving the familiar having a 1k flying vision range?

also, it seems a little clunky for a librairan to be carrying around a heavy bolter

Yeah. I was talking about that in the other thread. I removed "Suppressive Fire" and "Melta-Bomb", both things a Librarian wouldn't / couldn't use.

I like both of those abilities alot though. If someone has a Space Marine hero in need of abilities, feel free.

Feel free to post them in the Skill Suggestion Thread for future use.

Also, I really like this hero!

umm, fear of the darkness is already the libbies skill. and actually in TT, fury is a line skill.

Updated.

@Grass: "fury is a line skill". Fury?

wow i got mixed up XD fury of the ancients, and at this point, i dont actually remeber if he had fear or fury... either way they were already used

anywho! nice, that looks great now

moving to development forum

How do you prevent people from getting an auspex, seeing your beacon, gathering up heroes at that spot and waiting for you to spawn so they can rape you?

I think there should be an option to respawn at the beacon, like a window will pop up at the end of your death timer and ask a yes/no question if you want to respawn at the beacon.

Skills look quite nice, just flesh them out with numbers so we can comment.

Can't be that much worse than using "Swooping Hawk Wings" when people see the little swirling colors showing the landing point. The beacon has a "Return to Base" option, so if they want to spawn in the base they can just click the button.

read these lines:
Has 'Return to HQ' ability. Map-wide 'Blink'
that should sove that problem

Mhm. ^^

ok, so if no one ahs any more problems with this, imma move it to completed heroes

Moved to Space Marines.

edit: sorry gly XD it has no numbers/stats, those should be worked out first

Thinking about changing this to either the Codicier Lyandro Karras or the Exorcist Darrion Rauth.. Karras is a Librarian, and it wouldn't change the build that much (except I'd be swapping out afew skills- such as his innate for "Sight Beyond Sight".).. Rauth is your standard "Point me in a direction and get out of the way" Astartes, so I'd be completely changing the current build. Rauth would actually be what I wanted this build to be to begin with, before I turned it into a Librarian. So I'm kind of leaning towards that... Let me know what you think.
