Varimathras

The Fallen Nathrezim

As one of the dreadlords overseeing the Legion's forces in the Third War, Varimathras failed to stop the rebellious Lich King. He submitted to an ill-fated alliance with Sylvanus Windrunner, then made one last bid for power before facing a humiliating defeat. As punishment for failing, Varimathras has has been tortured by The Coven of Shivarra. This has striped away both his flesh and sanity, leaving only one cause to him. The suffering of the mortals who cost him everything. Failing to do that once again and this time having his soul sent to The Nexus, where Varimathras plans to show everyone who gets in his path what true pain really is.

Misery

Heroic Abilities

1
Alone in Darkness
75 mana cost, 80 second cooldown: If an enemy Hero has no other Heroes, minions, mercenaries or structure nearby, they are Relieved to Varimathras. You can also target them and, after a 3 second long channel, teleport to them, dealing large damage
Side Note: The area that nothing can be near a hero is about as big as Kel'Thuzad's Frost Blast explosion

Tier 4 talents

Heroic Abilites Listed Above

Tier 5 Talents

Shadow Step: Once the Shadow of Varimathras hits a Hero, you can teleport to them by activating the ability within the next 4 seconds
Suffer Together: Increase Misery's doubled effect by an extra 2% for every Hero hit by Shadow Strike
Side Note: Each hero hit by Shadow Strike adds an extra 2% after it is doubled and the extra 2% per hero last the same duration. For a quick math explanation,
10(2)=20+x=y
x=Amount of Heroes hit
y=Resulting increase.

Tier 6 Talents

Torment of Flames: Misery now deals moderate damage every 1 second
Torment of Frost: Misery reduces movement speed by 20%
Torment of Fel: Misery deals small but slowly increasing damage, capping at 300% damage increase, every 1 second lingers for 5 seconds after the target is no longer afflicted with Misery
Side Note: Torment of Fel's damage does not increase once the afflicted no longer has Misery on them
Torment of Shadows: Misery increases the effect of itself naturally the longer someone is afflicted with it by 2% every 1.5 seconds, capping at an extra 10%.

Tier 7 talents

Torment the Alone: When Alone in Darkness is used, summon two Shadows of Varimathras, who mimic your abilities without the talents and do not increase the effect of Misery. When one of the Shadows of Varimathras die the cooldown of Alone in Darkness is reduced by 12.5 seconds
Share your Suffering: Necrotic Embrace's explosion also afflicts those hit with Necrotic Embrace for 3 seconds. If Necrotic Embrace transfers to each other hero one time, reduce the cooldown of Necrotic Embrace by 5 seconds.
Side Note: The cooldown reduction only works one time. If it transfers to a Hero once the cooldown can not be reduced by that same Hero being afflicted with Necrotic Embrace again. For example, if Varian transfers Necrotic Embrace to Garrosh and Stukov, the cooldown is reduced by 10 seconds. If it transfers to Ranyor and Kel'Thuzad, that would be 10 seconds. If Varian and Stukov then get it transferred to them again it would only be 5 seconds because it was not transfered to Varian, he was first carrier in this case and sense Stukov had Necrotic Embrace transferred to him before it would not reduce the cooldown again. If it goes back to any of them the cooldown is not reduced by another 5 seconds.
I... Will... Kill You All! Every enemy hero killed while afflicted with Misery deals a burst of damage to all others afflicted by Misery and it refreshes the duration of Misery
Trade Pain For Pain: Cooldown 240 seconds: Target an enemy hero, 20% of the damage you take is reflected to them. If they are afflicted with Misery increase the damage reflected to 40%. This effect lasts 5 seconds. Takedowns refresh the cooldown
