Character Idea : The Innsmouth Detective

[intentionkills]

Potential Character Names: The Innsmouth Detective, The Fisher of Men

Main Weapon: Mauser Pistol
Melee: Tentacle

Ability 1: Tentacle Slap
Extend your tentacle arm out 10 meters to slap an enemy, stunning them for 1 second and applying poison DOT for 5 seconds.

Ability 2: Private Eye
Throw your eyeball in an area. If there are any enemies in that area they will be marked for you, revealing their location for 4 seconds. Marked enemies take increased damage.

Ability 3: Drunken Breath
Drink a bottle of alcohol and pull out your lighter. When ready, click to spit the alcohol through your lighter creating a horizontal wall of fire burning any enemies in front of you. Enemies take DOT burn damage for 5 seconds.

Ability 4: Fisher of Men
Cast a net over a large area. Any enemies caught under the net are unable to move for 3 seconds and take increased damage while ensnared. Apply the Catch of the Day buff to self.
*Catch of the Day - base damage of Mauser Pistol and Tentacle Slap are greatly increased until used.

Maybe replace ability 2 with:
Set Sail:
dude hops on a boat/mini ship that can move in any direction(even up and down), recieves reduced damage and gains a little movespeed bonus but cant attack
with [M3] bring along the closest ally

im a big fan of abilities that can either help or hurt your team depending on how/when you use them(take dynamos entaglment for example)

That’s a really cool idea too. and yeah that’s the kind of vibe I was trying to go for from the love craft story! The fish men from shadow over innsmouth.

An interesting hero, but I think we should make him into a kunka or a Tidehunter from Dota.
