Designer Note
This is the first time we design a hero couple which has a special interactive skill. Don't forget to try them together with your friends! He is the lover of the Shadow of Twilight, Carmilla.
Cecilion will increase his max mana each time his skill hits an enemy target. Cecilion's skill damage scales with his max mana.
Cecilion orders a giant bat to dive in a designated direction, dealing damage to enemies on the path. The giant bat will stay at its destination and launch another attack, dealing the same damage to them again. After casting, Cecilion increases his Movement Speed. In several seconds, every time Cecilion casts this skill, the mana cost will be doubled.
Cecilion summons a pair of claws in a designated position. The claws will run into each other afterwards, dealing damage to enemies on the path, pulling them to where the claws meet and immobilizing them.
Cecilion awakens his Blood Demon power, increasing his Movement Speed. Meanwhile, he releases Blood Demon Power, dealing damage to enemies around him and slowing them. Each time the Power hits a target, Cecilion restores a certain number of HP.
