Ximkaya

Primary Role: Juggernaut

Secondary Role: N/A

Background

Lore:

"The title of the strongest belongs to only one". That is what you are mostly likely to hear if you asked anyone in Runeterra who the strongest person is. After all, the definition of the word "strongest" is that there can only be one. Though some would like to believe that there is not strongest, as anyone is the strongest in of themselves, as much as they are the weakest, since every person has their strengths and weaknesses. However, if you were to ask specifically who that person is, that which possesses all the power to defeat any opposition befalls them, you would here different answers. If you asked a Targonian, they would say it's a god; if you asked a Noxian, they would say it's one of their generals; if you asked someone in Runeterra of a parallel universe, they would probably say something ludicrous like "it's some purple guy with a lantern". But if you asked anyone in Ixaocan, the capital of Ixtal, They would most definitely tell you that it is Ximkaya. A warrior among warriors, Ximkaya would through and through prove herself as the mightiest that Ixaocan had to offer. Always fending off intruders; always standing last during sparring sessions; always prevailing in all things combat. Though she took pride in her strength, for the most part, she did not have the opportunities to show it, as the Ixtali prefer to stay hidden from anyone who isn't their own. But where there was combat, Ximkaya would sure to rush over there to fight, whether the enemy be a monster or a man, or both. And as her career as a warrior continued, her fighting spirit grew as well, to the point where it became her obsession. Her fixation on combat grew so big that not only did she find every opportunity to fight, but also to the point where she desired to find someone strong enough to defeat her. Because Ximkaya believed that only through defeat may she become stronger, as already being the strongest did not suffice for her for whatever reason. However, where would the strongest warrior find someone who is even stronger than themselves? None apparently, as all the Ixtali and all the cretins of the jungles cannot stand equal to Ximkaya's might. With no hope of being defeated, Ximkaya sought to approach her problem from a different perspective. If she can't find someone stronger, then she'll just make it harder for herself to achieve victory. And she did exactly that, as she knew full well how to achieve that. Making her way to the Haraxa River, located northeast of Ixaocan, where the Haraxin subsides, one of the Ixtal's most dangerous parasites. Though this is what is told, it is not dangerous because it kills its victims, but because it turns them into takes control of them and turns them into monsters. But she has already decided, as she grabbed one from the river, big as a dog, and attached it to her back. Any other person would've already submitted to the parasite's control, But Ximkaya is not "any other person". With her sheer willpower alone, Ximkaya denied the parasite's control over her, even though it claimed her legs. But this is no easy task, as the two are constantly fighting for control over the same body. With an everlasting battle for her to be bothered with, the fights that will befall Ximkaya in the future will be even harder for her to overcome, as this never-ending disadvantage just might show her defeat, and through that, becoming even stronger. But who will find victory first? Ximkaya, who seeks to become stronger through defeat… or the parasite, he seeks to show her defeat for the last and only time in her life.

Appearance:

Ximkaya takes the appearance of an Ixtali woman transformed into a dark green plant monster of sorts. Her legs have been replaced with several plant-like tendrils. The Haraxin parasite which, as mentioned in the lore, is as big as a dog, sticks to her back by boring his appendages into her flesh. It also used its appendages to cover her breast which is otherwise bare, as she has no use for armor when she is what the parasite turned her into.

Abilities

Aura of the Strongest
P

Ximkaya steals 10% (+0.3% every level) of all self-healing from all enemy champions within 600 units of her. This does not apply to health regeneration and healing from allies.

Notes: 

Haraxin's Struggle
Q

25 mana | 3 seconds

Ximkaya's next basic attack infects the target with Haraxin Stinger. Infected targets take 60/95/130/165/200 (+100% AD) (+6% of the target's maximum health) as physical damage per Stinger over 5 seconds. Ximkaya can reactivate Haraxin's Struggle at any time to recall the Stinger(s) back to her from anywhere on the map and stop the damage. If Ximkaya does not recall the Stinger(s) before reaching 5 seconds, then 100/95/90/85/80% of the damage applied to the target is refunded. A single target can have a maximum of 3 Stingers.

When the Stinger(s) is in Ximkaya's possession, she heals for 30/45/60/75/90 (+15% bonus AD) (+7% of missing health) per Stinger over 5 seconds, ticking every 0.5 second. Ximkaya can reactivate Haraxin's Struggle at any time to stop the healing and make her next basic attack apply a Stinger to the target. If she does not reactivate Haraxin's Struggle before reaching 5 seconds, then 100/95/90/85/80% of the healing is "refunded". Ximkaya can have a maximum of 3 Stingers

Haraxin's Struggle can be activated while under the effects of crowd control and all Stingers end if Ximkaya dies while any of them are active.

Notes: The damage refund interacts with Aura of the Strongest for the purpose of healing stealing (heh… it rhymes). However, this isn't considered self-healing from the enemy, but rather an unusual form where the player heals their enemy. Therefore, it won't benefit from healing increase such as Spirit Visage and the likes.

*Also, there is a visual indicator showing how many Stingers a single unit has and when Ximkaya is about to reach the 5 second limit.

Infected Tendril
W

60 Mana (+5 every rank) | 12 seconds (-0.5 every rank) | 500 Cast Range | 600 Target Range | 0.2 Cast Time

Ximkaya flings one of her tendrils in a line after a 0.55 second delay, dealing 60/95/130/165/200 (+80% AD) physical damage to all enemies hit and applying to them a Stinger (which scales with the rank of Haraxin's Struggle), prioritizing champions and then the first enemies hit from the direction from which the ability was activated. Only 3 enemies can be applied a Stinger, but all enemies hit by Infected Tendril will still take damage.

Notes: This is a vector cast a la Viktor's E and Rumble's R.

Parasitic Explosion
E

60 Mana (+5 every rank) | 13 seconds (-1 every rank) | 675 Cast Range | 0.4 Cast Time

Ximkaya targets an enemy who currently has a Stinger, exploding it, dealing 50/85/120/155/190 (+75% AD) physical damage to them and stunning them for 1.5 second. Ximkaya gains 30% bonus movement speed towards the target for 3.5 seconds. The Stinger disappears once it exploded, eliminating the risk of damage/healing "refund".

Notes: 

!Make This Hard for Me
R

100 Mana | 120 seconds (-20 every rank) | 0.25s Cast Time

Ximkaya Empowers herself indefinitely, gaining 30/45/60% bonus attack speed, 45% tenacity, 50/65/80 armor and magic resistance, 10/15/20% lifesteal, removing the risk of the damage/healing "refund" on Haraxin's Struggle while it is still active and enhancing her basic attacks to deal 6% of the target's maximum health as magic damage. After 4/5/6 seconds, Ximkaya starts to lose 10% of her maximum health every second. If Ximkaya successfully killed an enemy champion during Make This Hard for Me!, then she will refund 80/90/100% of all the self-inflicted damage she took and 30/37.5/45% of all the damage she took from any other source and subsequently ending the effect. Make This Hard for Me! can be reactivated to cancel it early. However, doing so will not refund any damage she took for the duration even if she kills an enemy champion.
