    Hover in the air (costs water) (water use: LOW) (air)

    I know this post is a little old now but it's kind of a shame no one responded to you buddy, this is a really cool concept. I love reading about other's character ideas. Maybe Ninja Theory will host a contest at some point and a player will get to help design one.

    As for this character... Managing a secondary resource is fairly interesting but bogs up the gameplay a bit given that this is more brawler than MOBA, but an alternative way to look at it would be to remove all cooldowns on specials and have each special cost 1 unit of water. So you could save it up/spread out your usage, or rapid cast and blow your water (perhaps even all on the same ability!). Then you'd wait to refill.

    Since he's water-based and a support, it'd be nice if one of his specials removed burns and cleansed? There's only one cleanse in the game so far so I'd expect to see more of that later on. A more offensive special as well would be nice, like a water blast with a bit of damage and a knockback effect.

    Either way, cool stuff! I'm excited to see more character ideas as the game gets more popular.
