[BACKGROUND STORY] Medusa, Gorgon

Realitey · 04-26-2010, 12:06 PM

Dear Dota Users

i've Noticed a Few Inconsistencies in Medusa's Background Story, comes from her old Skills that this hero used to have before partial Remake for the Chain Lightning & Purge,,,

Check Out Current Story

Quote:

An insidious creature that dwelled for eons in the underwater prisons of Nazjatar, the Gorgon was unwittingly freed during the war waged between King Arthas's Scourge and the Naga on the icy shores of Northrend. Plagued by undeath in the aftermath, Medusa welcomed the blessing of immortality. Gifted with a keen sense of archery and affinity to magic at birth, she has honed her skills over the ages, striking multiple foes with a single volley of arrows, debilitating them with jolts of lightning, and even conjuring a protective barrier of mana. Like her namesake, Medusa instills paralyzing fear into all that dare cross her path.

Since Her Skills got Changed.. Background story should be modified to atleast show what this Powerful Hero is Capable of...So Changing the Lightning Word with something else close to her New Skill Mystic Snake.. & Her Ultimate Stone Gaze.. So What im Suggesting is to Modify the Story as Below

Proposed Story

Gifted with a keen sense of archery and affinity to magic at birth, she has honed her skills over the ages, striking multiple foes with a single volley of arrows, debilitating them with Bites of Fatal Serpent, and even conjuring a protective barrier of mana. Like her namesake, Medusa instills Petrifying fear into all that dare cross her path.

Reasons for Changing, Well Chain of Lightning is not a Skill right now for Medusa & Regarding the Ultimate,, Paralyzing imho is not fitting since Paralyzing mostly happens when you toxin your prey then its paralyzed..& you Still can survive... but Petrifying Purely explains her skill where all her enemies who look into her eyes get petrified..when she Scare her enemies & make them Stones ! gives you no chance to think you can do..
The Exact Meaning of
Paralyze is to bring to a condition of helpless stoppage, inactivity, or inability to act

Petrify is to benumb or paralyze with astonishment, horror, or other strong emotion

So Guys ! Feedback Please !

since the remakes, many heroes now get false information in the background. And yes, we should correct them. t-up

dominator02 · 04-28-2010, 01:25 AM

we should read the reworked heroes's background story.

NHP54 · 04-28-2010, 01:31 AM

Why are certain words capitalized? They aren't proper nouns.

... debilitating them with deadly bites from a viscous serpent, and even conjuring a protective barrier of mana. Like her namesake, Medusa instills petrifying fear into all that dare cross her path.

I want more information on these abilities, like the mana burn on the serpent as well as the aspect that your enemies need to look at you when you use your ultimate.

How about simply changing

Medusa instills Petrifying fear into all that dare cross her path.

into

Medusa instills Petrifying fear into all that dare cross her sight/gaze.

Or something like that...

Overall, T-Up

Nice one, T-Up

[P]rokatdn · 05-22-2010, 12:59 PM

Kouganei · 05-22-2010, 02:32 PM

it should be Bites of Fatal Serpents or Bites of a Fatal Serpent.

T-UP none the less.

ricwilliam · 05-23-2010, 12:17 PM

Nice! I agree with you.. T-up

Faek · 05-23-2010, 12:25 PM

Petrifying fear is a pleonasm. T-down on that one.
Bites of Fatal Serpent doesn't sound good either. I agree that the lightning part should be fixed, but we need a better suggestion.
