Hi guys

it can be a hero already in dota 2 or it can be one from here im not fussed.

anyway :)

Ok so i have done Magnus, dont know whther or not its what you wanted but i think sticking a little to the base story is good. but i felt he needed something a focal point if you will so yea i gave he something to focus on more so then what he has.

hope you like.

Magnus

Magnus


Stil waiting for tiny, but going to put some critics.
The idea was good, a brother fighting each other for the martriarch and the loser gets angry and rekt everyones face. You may give some insights why Raejak hates Magnus so much, as of he had a grudge since he was born. Also, Im not really sure about the volcano. Magnus's skills are blue, and might be better if it was a snowy mountain. Also, take note of Magnus's fur. Thinking logically, he will die of hot air more than hunters and wars. Perhaps make it an avalanche?
Otherwise, great Idea and is close to perfect. Why dont they make a FoC contest with changing hero lores?
Waiting for tiny, but for now GG WP

well i was thinking along those lines but in his original lore it was a volcano and since he is basically a centaur with a horn which is close to a horse and horses love plains and hunters stay close to plains and since plains are usually cloud free the blue could also be attributed to a synergy with the sky?

the idea that Raejak hates magnus so much i think should be glossed over slightly since giving it a small explanation wont do it justice and giving it a big one would extend the lore to far into the short story territory. when creating a back story you need to provide the trivium.

-make enough to understand and relate.
-leave enough unsaid for them to imagine and ponder
-make the start closed and the ending open.

if i was doing a short story i would have started with a meeting between the two in the tunnel to flesh out their history.

i do like the idea of the avalanche though and i defiantly think that the FoC for lore needs to happen ..
