Exercise 4 Death
This is an exercise in creativity. Its only goal is to fuel the imagination and test ones creativity. Please post your entries in the hero drafts section with [exe4] in the title.
The Challenge
The challenge is to make a hero around the death mechanic. This can be any thing from triggers related to death, things happening when you get some one closer to death, some thing happening after you are dead or any thing you can possibly tie to death. Some examples of current death related abilities lego's decapitate, demented shaman's unbreakable, soulstealer's soulsteal, blood hunter's feast, and soulreapers demonic execute.
Drasha's Rant
This was going to be about vampires since mtg is having a set with loads of them and the vampire like heroes in hon are horrible. (looking at you dampeer and your horribly unfun ult) I decided to widen it to death mechanics since it still has every thing to do with vampires but also allows you more room to be creative. Death mechanics have a couple raw deals in hon in the case of soulstealer and dampeer where killing is great but when you die it cripples you. Please try to stay away from mechanics where death hurts your hero more then other heroes. You should also focus not only on death as a mechanic but the feel of death. I am talking about ghouls and ghosts, graveyards and swamps, the afterlife and immortality. Death has a rich world associated with it so draw from it.

Huzzah! Another exercise. I like how the "challenges" are getting more and more abstract.
OT: Innistrad looks amazing.

The sign of lost Carcosa appeared in the air, paralyzing us with dread older than the very idea of time.
As we looked on in horror, the unholy sign dissolved into a lone figure, shrouded in yellow.
My first attempt at one of these exercises

My mind was a bit stuck on exercise 2 (so bad it's good), but I still like how the hero turned out. Brings some interesting choices to the table for ganking after level 6.

Hope you guys enjoy just much as I did!![]()
Howdy folks. I figured most people would read "death" and go for something zombie or vampire or corpse themed, so I opted for something a bit ... different:

Hope you like it!
The Reanimator
Put one up. Obviously numbers are just thrown together with no real semblance of balance.
Edit: Wrong thread ID. I lopped off a number :P

Here you go Drasha.
Tried to get as much "Death" effects in there as I could. Though I do feel that the first skill is a little complex on paper it really isn't too hard. You just select which wall you want (via right clicking the skill) and cast it. Or you could rebind it to some other hotkey, whatever :P.

Heres my first attempt at a dream hero and will most likely need heavy number twinking but that should be understood. Also How do you change text color on it?
