Backstory[ | ]

“

The sorcerer known as Strix hails from Sigil, the City of Doors at the center of the multiverse. Very little is known of Strix's heritage, even to herself, but it was recently discovered that she was a powerful member of the Skizziks family, who long ago made a pact with Asmodeus, ruler of the Nine Hells, to become Tieflings. Strix is careful, suspicious, and paranoid. She assumes the worst in everyone and is always ready to run away or hide. She lacks basic manners and maintains poor personal hygiene, exemplified by the collection of filthy oddities she hoards within her robes. As a child, Strix witnessed a shadowy creature slaughter her friends at the bakery where she worked, but was spared for unknown reasons. Her survivor's guilt drives her to try and help those in need, no matter the personal cost.

Strix throws a fireball at a random enemy, dealing a small amount of aoe damage.

Aura of Unclean – Level 20 Ability

Increases the damage of all Champions that are not adjacent to Strix by 100%. Increases damage dealt by Strix by 100% for each Champion affected, stacking additively

Polymorph Staff – Level 50 Ultimate Attack

Strix's staff polymorphs into a pie plate, an owlbear plushy, or a flying broom, and changes her base attack for a brief period of time.

Strix attacks with her Flame Blade pie plate dealing 5x the damage of her regular attacking, and hitting a nearby enemy with that same damage as well
Strix's Owlbear companion, Waffles, attacks in her stead. Waffles starts doing 3x Strix's damage, and does 2x the damage each attack for 5 attacks.

If a Champion within 2 spaces of Strix is about to be killed, Strix instead loses 50% of her max health and the ally regains 50% of their max health and is immune to all damage for 10 seconds. This effect can only trigger once every 30 seconds and adds 5 stacks to Haunted. While this ability is on cooldown, Aura of Unclean is increased by 400%.

Poor Hygiene – Level 120 Ability

Enemies that approach the party within 50% of the distance from the formation to where enemies appear take 100% more damage due to Strix's unique odor
