Linaria

The Chosen - will add talents soon I just want to see first impressions

A highly gifted Priest of Rathma, Linaria was taken as an apprentice by Master Ordan due to her rare ability to perceive the unseeable dead. Decades of harsh training in the subterranean Necropolis completely stripped away her emotions and bleached her hair white. Cold, analytical, and completely dedicated to preserving "The Balance," Linaria wields absolute command over blood, bone, and death, eventually marching to New Tristram to investigate the fallen star. 

Statistics:

Maximum Health: 2100+4% per level
Resource: Essence
Maximum Essence: 100
Basic Attack Speed: 1 per second
Basic Attack: attacks in a 6 range 2 width line dealing 183 +4% per level damage to all enemies in that line centred on the basic attack target

Combat Trait

Grace of Inarius
Bone Armour: Every 2 seconds, gain and give a stacking effect of Bone Armour up to 6 times, a stacking effect of 5% maximum health as a shield to yourself and nearby allies, up to 30% maximum health as a shield.

Bone Storm: 60 second cooldown, decreased by 1 per corpse consumed. Activate to shoot basic attacks at all enemy heroes every 0.5 seconds for 2 seconds, but doesn't pierce enemies

Also, all of Linaria's abilities have a passive effect, designed to work like diablo 3 runes
