1 Bushiden 2 Sir Shellalot - Awesomenauts

Movement
Primary Skill Fire
Secondary Skill Ice
Quick movement and jumping speed to take advantage of the monkish playstyle.
Smaller jumps that can be used more often, but double-tapping gives
higher jump. Maybe if Wintrova is near an obstacle/wall, jumping and
connecting with the wall allows her to briefly stick to the wall, whether to allow
for another jump or a brief respite from enemies.
Harness the power of fire. This is like a character state rather than a specific
power and the player chooses what aspects of fire they want to have when
activated. They choose the aspects before entering into the game, just as
everyone else does, but instead of a generic +2 damage to base attack, it
would be more akin to you choose a specific power within the realm of fire
you want. For example:
-Fire Fists: Punching someone applies a small DoT of fire damage.
-Flame Dash: Double tapping in a direction propels you in that direction using
the rocket power of fire.
-Heat Shield: Being attacked causes the enemy to take fire damage.
-Etc.
So, a person in Fire would retain all the normal movement and attack abilities
of their unaltered state unless they choose before the game which three
buffed abilities they wanted. I pictured this state as more of the damage
dealer state.
So, I'm not sure if you guys would prefer to grant Wintrova certain traits
simply by being in Fire state and just have the player choose which traits they
want buffed further in that game, or follow my first suggestion. I think either
would be cool simply because Wintrova would be such a unique character
already (character states instead of the usual two powers and then buff
them), so it would be up to you to decide what would make a more fun and
balanced character that fits your criteria.
I also realize that Wintrova would not be able to start out in either of the
states because she has yet to purchase them from the in-game store, so the
Normal state is a tricky area. Maybe there would be some timer on how long
Wintrova could be in a certain state before reverting back to her normal state
with a cooldown attached, or something akin to that. Without making the
character too un-Awesomenautic and complicated (unless you feel that this
would be a good route to go down) by making it so the more Fire attacks
Wintrova performs, the amount of power in her Ice bar builds so that the key
to mastering her is optimizing when to switch states and being on top of the
cooldown timers, or anything else, I'm not sure exactly how to deal with the
normal state mechanic.
Same idea as fire: character state harnessing the power of ice. For example:
-Frost Trail: Each jump produces a small blizzard in Wintrova's wake, slowing
enemies who walk through it and dissipating violently (i.e. damage) after a
few moments.
-Ice Block: Shifting briefly surrounds Wintrova in ice, creating an obstacle for
enemies and protecting her from damage.
-Etc.
I imagined the Ice state being more of a melee support class, slowing
enemies rather than doing great amounts of damage.
