Morigesh

Morigesh is the personification of a drowned forest, traveling to Agora in pursuit of The Fey. A close-range Caster, Morigesh uses her abilities to keep consistent damage on her enemies, and whittle them down in order to assassinate them.

Swarm will transform Morigesh's body into a swarm of insects. During this time, you'll gain a burst of move speed. And if you pass through enemies, you will deal damage and gain a stack of Health Regen. This is a powerful ability, that will allow you to engage, disengage, and reposition in team fights. Hive will throw a bug hive to a target location. Enemies will suffer damage over time, and will be slowed with every tick of damage. The effect will last even longer if an enemy has been marked. Mark will deal damage and steal the very essence of your enemy, creating a doll of your target that Morigesh will carry around. Marked targets stay marked until either they die, Morigesh dies, or a new target is chosen to suffer her wrath. Mark has a low cooldown, so use it in lane to harass your enemy, and get them low enough to use your Ultimate, Curse. Curse summons a deadly swarm of insects in Morigesh's image to stab whomever was hit by Mark most recently. Curse is a global Ultimate, so there is nowhere to hide.

Morigesh is a close-range Caster, so positioning is very important. But if you try to get too close, it could result in your death. Mark and Curse are very versatile, and can be used before a fight to weaken an enemy Carry, giving your team an edge. Or, you can steal a key target's essence, and use it to assassinate them as they try to escape. Use the ancient magic of a drowned forest to bedevil your enemies as Morigesh.
