Lore
It was a warm, midsummer's day when Ukkonen came into this world. The last bolt of an otherwise ordinary thunderstorm over the broken lands of a dying world, Ukkonen was the smallest of his elemental brothers and sisters--so small, in fact, that his birth went unnoticed by the storm shepherds herding the newborn bolts to the elemental realm. Desperate not to be left behind, the tiny bolt rode the last of the storm's fading winds to the shrinking gateway. As the gateway narrowed to a close, he charged forward with all his might, crashing through the dimensional rift with such force that the heavens were made to tremble at the thunderclap.
All divine eyes turned to the tiny newcomer, bewildered and curious about this small seemingly in consequential spark in utter contrast to the tremendous of his arrival. As the other elder elementals whispered in serious concern, the young bolts surrounded their brother with enthusiastic demand to know how he made the tremendous thunderclap. Stoked by the sudden downpour of praise and attention, the little bolt gladly charged through the heavens with such speed as to tore open the clouds, causing them the roar and thunder in their fury at having been so disturbed.
The playful but impressive show caught the attention of the Storm Lord, the king of elementals. Amused by the little bolt's display, the Storm Lord named him Ukkonen and took the young bolt under his wing.
It wasn’t long before the name Ukkonen was known throughout the elemental realm--many praised him as a hero and celebrity, while the elders grumbled and reminisced about quieter times past. Yet all this attention was starting to dull, for Ukkonen dreamed of great adventures and elemental wars who's stories were told in remembrance by the elders.
Just when he had given up hope of a chance of true glory, the tournament of Graxia's fate was announced. Ukkonen rushed to the Storm Lord's palace and begged to be the elementals' champion. The Storm Lord patiently but sternly refused, insisting that the affairs of the mortal world are of no concern, and one measly planet was not worth the risk of a divine being.
Yet Ukkonen was not about to let his opportunity pass him by. He waited patently by the portal gates and when they finally opened to let in the newest generation of bolts, Ukkonen charge the rift leaving the elemental plane with a roaring thunderclap.
The newest edition to the tournament waging on Graxia, Ukkonen hopes to earn his right as the greatest elemental to have ever lived.
Abilities
Fires three bolts toward the targeted position. These three bolts split up on the way then converge on the targeted point and deal damage to the first enemy target they collide with. If the same target is hit by multiple bolts they are slowed if hit by two bolts, and stunned if hit by three bolts. Consecutive bolts after the first deal reduced damage. | |

Passive/Active Ability
| |
Static Charge | |
Ukkonen adjusts himself to allow him to be more deadly or more resilient to attacks. In Rising Storm mode he will have a passive bonus to attack damage and movement speed. In Tempest Armor form he will have a bonus to armor and magic resistance. When activating this ability to change modes the new mode is temporarily more powerful. | |
Rising Storm / Tempest Armor | |
Ukkonen activates this ability to cause energy to build up in nearby enemy immortals every second for the next six seconds, visibly marking them with electricity. After a 1.5 second delay chain lightning is fired outward from Ukkonen at the target, dealing damage and bouncing to nearby enemies. | |
Strike Twice | |
Signature Ability.Ukkonens power temporarily warps the physical realm, allowing him to teleport over short distances rather than running. While this is active right-click movement is changed to teleportation in a range of 250 around Ukkonen. [Clicks farther than this distance will teleport that much distance in one direction]. These teleportations have a 0.75s cooldown and contribute to the total movement for Ukkonens Static Charge. | |
