Artemis

The Huntress of the Heaven

"A divine arrow, it's for killing things and hunts you down."

Artemis, the Huntress of Heaven, is a ranged agility hero. In a fight, she can changes her posture to increase an attack range, and improved her action more agile for a temporary. Artemis's vision is far beyond her sight that can see enemies around her through the fog and any terrain, gives her and teammate a period time of considering to chase or retreat. An offensive magic arrows is great to dealing any opponent for providing continuous damage, unevaded, and can't runaway. Her passive ultimate is like personal guardian, an automatic attack with a blink of an eye and slow enemy make them hard to come near her without losing of their HP. It's no need mana and low cooldown but uncontrollable. At last, a hidden ability that required Aghanim's scepter, gives her a destructive DPS damage that can annihilate a tough hero speedily. By all means of this skills have set Artemis needs early time to farm for levels and some items, then it's allow her can keep hunting a single victim or harassing team fight and become a supreme damage dealer in late game, make her was usually played as midlaner or hard carry.

Lore

: In the far northern from Stonehall, deep in the green jungle that full of nature force, rich of wild things. it's hazardous place where peoples risk and end up their life to hunt for precious rare species. One day, spread among the hunters, a rumor about a young women who stand near the one of the most dangerous and monstrous beast. Its body lies down, have sharpen wounds but no sign of injury even on her skin. No one ever see her before or know where she come from but her identity look familiar someone in the war. At early time they didn't believe that hunt was done by her own. but afterward, more and more, she comes to traders with a precious part of many ferocious rare species. She become renowned in her hunting skills, and accepted by peoples who affront her before.

Nowadays, she well-known as Artemis, the Huntress of Heaven, a legendary skilled archer, daughter of Zeus and half-sister of Mars. Unlike father and brother, her characteristic is cheerful and joyful with peace of nature and not much willing to involve any war or conflict unless she has to. But that's not mean she's weak or inexpert on battlefield. By the sharp skills to hunt down any victim she aims, Artemis strikes them with fast and agile and fierce arrows with until they fall.

No one really know the reason why she joins this war but surely it's seem like unrelate to her kin. Some said she just comes to find any hunting activity, or to protect beloved wild nature. However, few closed allies who ever talked to her believe she has a secret duty to finds or hunts someone or something.

ANOTHER DRAFT VERSION

At start of creating ability, I had concerned about how strong of them make she is too OP?. Then I decides to change or nerf some of them to the above ability's detail that you see.

This following is the very first concept of some abilities.

SENSE OF THE HUNTRESS : With the blessed hunting , Artemis can sense beyond her sight and gain vision on enemy unit who come near around her but not reveal the fog of war or hero who got invisibility. and turn her invisible effect like Smoke of Deceit while stand-still but dispelled when move or get enemy hero near within 500 range.

SEEKING ARROW : Each making successful instance damage on enemy heroes or their unit, automatic fire a magical arrow at the one who take damage by her. When hit, it marks an arrow stack on enemy. every 5 stacks Artemis will rapidly fires more 5 arrows to target.

ORION STRIKE : It's still same passive but can be toggled to pause its actions.

Lv.20 left talent : -4s Orion Strike cooldown.

Lv.25 left talent : Orion Strike stun for 3 sec.
