Goddess of Dawn
PANTHEON: Hindu
CLASS: Guardian
TYPE: Melee, Magical
LORE
At dawn, the sun rises above the horizon, bringing life to the lands. Towering forests and jungles are enriched and encouraged to flourish, birds fill the skies with echoing songs and mankind is awoken, beginning its day of prosperity. All of which is brought into existence at sunrise. However, at dusk, as the sun sinks beneath the horizon, night begins. With night comes darkness and oppression - whereby prosperity is hindered and all creation rests. It is Ushas, daughter of the sky and the lady of light, whose job it is to come down from the heavens every morning to ward away the night and all its evil demons.
Ushas is the harbinger of dawn, and so as she brings forth light to the world, she rouses mankind with it, bringing strength, prosperity and encouragement. She is that which impels life itself. As Ushas travels across the skies, waking the sleeping world below, the sun would catch sight of the young maiden, becoming deeply infatuated by her beauty. Ushas, pleased by his affections, would encourage the sun to chase her across the sky, thus bringing light to the world below. As the morning begins, and the sun has risen into the sky, Ushas would reunite with the sun, and the two lovers will henceforth bring light and love to world beneath them. Every morning this has happened - allowing creation to prosper with their wondrous blessing of day.
PASSIVE
Awaken
On a cooldown, Ushas empowers her next basic attack making it a startling slap. Ushas is able to use this basic attack on an allied god, invigorating and making them more focused on the battle at hand, granting both movement and attack speed. If an ally is mesmerised or stunned, Ushas cleanses them. This attack will deal an additional +20% of her Magical Power as damage to enemies. If the enemy god is mesmerised or stunned, they’re startled and jump up in fear.
Movement Speed Buff: +10%
Attack Speed Buff: +20%
Buff Duration: 3s
Cooldown: 8 seconds
Ability Type: StimUshas will have a passive meter that will show her the cooldown.
For the secondary effects of her passive, targets DO NOT need to be stunned/mesmerised by Ushas herself.
When anybody is mesmerised/stunned while her passive is up, they will be marked for only Ushas to see, making it clearer to her.
The "jump up" is essentially just a knockup.
ABILITY 1
Startling Rouse
Ushas abruptly claps her hands together creating a startling wave, extending her basic attack out in a cone infront of her, doing increased damage to enemies.
Damage: 80/110/140/170/200 (+40% of magical power)
Cooldown: 16 seconds
Ability Type: Cone
Cost: 40/45/50/55/60 manaThis operates as a ranged basic attack, and so can trigger her passive effects, and item effects.
This ability also applies her passive effects to allies.
The wave travels outward of the cone, like agni's flame wave.
ABILITY 2
Meditative Daze
Ushas gets into a lotus position and begins meditating, whereby she has an increase in movement speed, has no backpedal penalty and is immune to slows and roots – however is disarmed. During this time Ushas creates a soothing aura granting both her and her allies protections. After she has fully meditated, she mesmerises all enemies in the area around her. If Ushas’ meditation is interrupted by any form of hard cc, she mesmerises enemies early, but all buffing effects fade.
Movement Speed: +30%
Protections: 10/10/15/15/20

Aura Duration: 4 seconds
Radius: 25
Cooldown: 18/17/16/15/14 seconds
Ability Type: Buff / Area
Cost: 60/65/70/75/80 mana
If Ushas cancels this ability/uses her ultimate (which will also cancel it), Ushas will not mesmerise enemies.
Ushas will be able to see a timer in a ring around her, showing her when she will mesmerise.
This ability will only go on cooldown once its over.
Visually Ushas will glow and have a golden, dazzling beams of light emitting from her. When Ushas stops meditating and mesmerises enemies a wave of dream-like mist secretes outward from her into the radius of the mez. Mesmerised enemies will emit "Z's" as though they're asleep, like from Kumbha's mez.

ABILITY 3
Morning Gleam
Ushas channels a harsh ray of morning sunlight down at a target location, damaging all enemies hit. Enemies will be temporarily illuminated, reducing their protections and exposing them on the map for a duration.
Damage: 90/135/180/225/270 (+50% of magical power)

ULTIMATE
Sunrise
Ushas raises up into the sky and begins the process of bringing on the dawn. During this process a global aura of drowsiness emits from the sky that afflicts enemy gods. This 5 second debuff slows and also causes exhaustion if either an enemy god uses a movement ability, or does not receive any damage for 3 consecutive seconds. Exhausted enemies will move even slower until the debuff duration is over, whereby all exhausted enemies will be stunned as Ushas finally raises the sun up into the sky - globally damaging all stunned/mesmerised enemy gods.
Damage: 160/230/300/370/440 (+40% of magical power)
Initial Slow: 15%
Exhaustion Slow: +15%
Stun Duration: 0.8s
Cooldown: 110 seconds
Ability Type: Global
Cost: 80/90/100/110/120 manaThis ability will have the same charge up time and cc immunity as Rama ultimate before ascending to the sky. Ushas will be untargetable for the duration.
In a range similar to Jing Wei ultimate, Ushas will be able to choose a spot to descend to. She will have a duration to pick a landing spot, but if she cancels/time runs out she just descends back to the spot where she rose up.
Unless they take damage from this ability, enemies will be visable but only to Ushas while it is active.
Exhausted enemies will be visually marked. Stunned enemies will emit "Z's" as though they've fallen asleep.
Visually this ability will actually change the appearance of the sky, akin to Nu Wa fire shards and the new Anubis skin. While the drowsy debuff is in effect, the sky will be purple, cloudy and starry. When she raises the sun the sky turns bright orange and you can visibly see the sun rise up, and player screens will have a slight lens flare.
