Insect/parasite 'frame


HoverHook

So this was an idea i had after looking at the infested levels, with all those weird glowy bugs that fly around the level. Still havent thought of a name tho.

She would have a really sleek build, and her frame would have a chitinous appearance. Her helmet would have "antennae" stuff and a mouthpiece that resembles bug mandibles. A small swarm of robot bugs fly around her.

Her stats; still haven't got that technical, but she would be very quick but fragile, and would have shields stronger than health.

 

ABILITIES:

1) Unfolding wings: the small bugs arrange themselves and turn into big, insect wings on her back. These wings give her a lot of air control, wich means higher and longer jumps, strafing and knockdown control (instead of falling after being knocked down, she would hover and return to her feet immediately). Upgrading this skill would increase its duration. Energy cost:25

 

2) Swarm: The swarm around her expands and turns aggressive, absorbing bullet damage and harming any enemy it touches. Upgrading it expands the radius of the swarm, the duration of the skill and the damage they absorb and do.

Energy cost:50

 

3) Host (this is my favourite one): She teleports inside an enemy, using their bodies as both armor and disguise. The body would have its own health, which drains at a continuos rate. She can do this ability while already in a body, switching from body to body to mantain herself undetected. Upgrading this would mean a smaller health drain rate and thus a longer duration. Energy cost:75

 

4) Plague: Similar to swarm, only it doesn't act in a radius, but affects the entire level. Every room would be filled with bugs, which would just serve as the visual effect. The effect would constantly drain the health and shields of enemies (as long as they are active, eg: in the same rooms as the players), while providing a small defense bonus for players. Upgrading this would affect the duration and damage of the bugs. Energy cost:100

This is an attempt to do an ultimate that isn't like the common radial ultimate that totally obliterates everyone. 

 

So, Thoughts?

A power that both does defense and offense at the same time? I don't like the idea of bulletproof bugs but other than that its pretty good.
