Varion

For lore on Varion, see Gallowglass Part I and II.

Background
Born in the slums of a western city-state, Varion’s marksmanship, wit, and charm bring him wealth as a soldier-for-hire – which he quickly squanders on drink and gambling. He accepts the highs and lows of life with a smile and a shrug, which drew the Spirit of Adaptability to him.
Description
Varion is a long range, versatile ranged Carry capable of getting in and out of fights with ease. Varion can easily farm while harassing enemy Shapers in lane from afar, but excels at surprising enemies close-up with his extremely high mobility. The passive damage bonuses on Varion’s Basic Attack after using abilities affords him higher base damage than almost any other Shaper, and can often propel him into an extremely threatening late game carry status. In a teamfight, causing widespread chaos with his Ultimate while avoiding enemies with his mobility is key to being successful.
