Role Notes:
If i talk about ''Aseriel'' its the name of The Wind demon. I just copy pasted most of this from my original forum post.HERO USAGE:
Also you can use your imagination with the skills and items will give you more choises and easier kills. Those are just examples, this hero IS a verstile one and with the right tactic it can do some serious destruction no matter what hero on the the other team. Aserith will give you the advantage over invisibility heroes with attack modifiers.
Since if you do the same attack modifier that magebane has and magebane attacks you, you will burn his mana really quickly. The purge will also help you keep up with him, as well as Aserith. Also Aserith counters things like Brutalizer and horned strike on rampage, this will help you take down bashers and heroes with bashers.
Heroes that you make blink to like Behemoth or Tempest, this hero will counter them immedietly. If you stay close enough, unseen. And tempest blinks in with his ultimate, you can easily use your ulti on him, dealing massive damage and stunning him, this will interrupt his ultimate. Also the benefit from
their blinks and other escape mechanism will be useless for running away, since Aserith will keep up with them easily. This ultimate is practically also an AoE stun since it will Bash the enemies that Aseriel will go past during the attack.
This hero also goes for an awesome supported with those slows and the reveal/anti-blink. From the ultimates effects to his own, this hero is effective in team battles in about every way.
Just use your imagination and you can do anything. This is one of those heroes that might take time before you master her skills but when you do, you'll do serious damage.
---------------------------------------------------
Item suggestions:
Shieldbraker - For the armor reduction and a nice damage bonus. Works well with Dangerous Winds.
Savage Mace - Damage
Wingbow - Everything an agility hero needs.
Geometers Bane + Nullfire blade - Burn mana extremely fast, use with Dangerous winds and harass the enemy until they hate you for being born.
Anyways, use your imagination.

------------------------------------------
Item & Hero Synergy:
- With this item you can slow down the enemy if ganking. Also the clone will have the time to make an attack so you can burn the enemies mana.
- Just stay invisible and the mocks minor AoE damage will do the rest. Also the nice add to Aseriels base damage will make backstabbing even more effective.
- Shieldbrakers armor will help you deal even more damage to the enemy.
- Pandas flick is i good with this hero if on the same lane. The flick armor reducing and slow will go extreme well with this skill. This skill has a minor slow and armor reducing so the damage done to the enemy will be huge.
---------------------------
Counters & Balance:
Heroes with Aoe nukes/stun will be effective against this if The Wind Demon will not move. Also dust,wards and eye will be effective counter measure and lets not forget puzzlebox lvl 3 if someone makes it.
-----------------------

Ability 3 Name
Aserith
Ability 3 Action Type
Passive
Ability 3 Notes:
Aserith, the mysterious wind particles that form the wind demons blade and armor. These wind particles can turn the tide of battle when careless against the Wind demon. Aserith can magically reflect enemies magical weapon attacks, also these wind particles follow the air currents that surround the enemy. With this The Wind Demon can haunt her enemies and strike trough the winds to finish off her just fought and weak enemies.Level 1: Applies ''Haunting Winds'' to the enemy and ''Stormy Armor'' to self for 6 seconds when stroke 5 times.
Level 2: Applies ''Haunting Winds'' to the enemy and ''Stormy Armor'' to self for 9 seconds when stroke 4 times.
Level 3: Applies ''Haunting Winds'' the the enemy and ''Stormy Armor'' to self for 12 seconds when stroke 3 times.
Level 4: Applies ''Haunting Winds'' to the enemy and ''Stormy Armor'' to self for 15 seconds when stroke 2 times.
Cooldown: 10/13/16/19 Seconds.
--------------------------------------
Haunting Winds effect:
Revealed - Only to the Wind Demon if possible
Haunted - Wind Demon can teleport to her enemy
(Manacost: 75 flat / Range - 2300 / Cooldown - 10 seconds.)
------------------------------------
Stormy Armor effect:
Attack Modifier reflection.
How does it work?
Eg. Magebane hits you and burns your mana, instead he gets his own mana burned. Chain Lightning proc'd on you, it's reflects back. Arachna slows you, shoots the slow back but still takes the base damage.
Note(s): This includes bash, Lifesteal makes them take damage, shares the bash cooldown. Unincludes Rampages stun. Includes Chain Lightning. Unincludes Predators unique Life Steal. And just to make clear, does NOT include crit.
-----------------------------------
Balance:
Since the cooldown, this effect wont trigger always, it might seem a bit over the top but when you think about it like this, no attack modifier = no use. Also, if the enemy has something like 200 damage as base. The Wind Demon WILL take that 200 damage, will just reduce the manaburn etc. This can turn the tide around for some feeded games.
Ability 4 Name
Ravaging Storm
Ability 4 Action Type
Target - Enemy Units
Ability 4 Notes:
Aseriel sucks in the wind around her, becoming an unstoppable combination of nature and chaos.Level 1: Deals 300 damage to the main target. Pull the enemy to your trail from a range of 350.
Level 2: Deals 375 damage to the main target. Pull the enemy to your trail from a range of 400.
Level 3: Deals 400 damage to the main target. Pull the enemy to your trail from a range of 450.
Usage: You can use this skill to get to your target fast, aswell to help the team initiator to deal some damage and slow the enemy team. Also good for ganking and finishing off an enemy from a distance.
Damage Type: Superior Physical
Target: Hero(Enemy)
Cooldown: 90/75/60 seconds.
Manacost: 100/150/200
Range: 1300 units
Cast time: 2 seconds.
Effect: Applies Windstruck to the main target / Applies Gushed to the pulled enemies.
Windstruck effects
-reduces armor by 4/5/6
-slows by 20%
-Lasts 10 seconds
Gushed effects
- Slows by 35% which decreases over 10 seconds.
Additional effect: If the target has ''Haunted Winds'' on themselves and this skill is targeted at him, it will do additional 25/50/75% damage from your base damage and stun for 2 second. (Main Target only)
Balance: As you can see, this skill has a fairly big cooldown and also needs 2 things to be used perfectly. Also if used wrong the enemy heroes will most likely take you down in a matter of seconds. Also the range is under the range of an average blink and won't be much of a use
if used for teh lulz or stealing. And the damage type is physical.
Visual: Aseriel looks as she becomes an unstable vacuum, sucking in the air with the armor starting to float around the unstable wind currents. Later she forms into a tornado, charges at the enemy, while on her path the enemies get pulled to her trail as a result of the tornados strong sucking power.
Notes:
-The ''Pull'' will be taken as a push-back-bash effect. Like the one Rampage has.
-This is a reverse version of Rexxars(Tundra) ultimate. And also Aseriel becomes the projectile. And the enemies will not be push away, but rather to the ''trail'' the The Wind Demon charges from.

And why not the 100% chance to relfect orb or the idea you have it would be too op later and underpowered at first.
Since orb attacks are minor in the first levels the effect needs to be 100% 75% of the time. To make it usable. Eg. check out bash effects. Also on later level they would be toooooo imba so i'll use the one i have now only because it gives The Wind Demon a weak point, don't want it to be TOO up also, not too underpowered. When you think also.. You kinda need to think through the skills when lvling.
You wont take orb effect reflect at first since some heroes have non. It's exeptionally good against arachna yea at first. You could bash her around nicely. But if the enemy doesent have arach, it's not :P
Ya see? Its all about the enemy team how you lvl and use this hero. This is what makes it balanced.
The sniping, in a way already is added since haunting winds is applied to the enemy already. :P That reveals him/her. :3
Altho i'm thinking that HAunting winds should be added when wind demon is hitting you. ANd maybe adding it to the first skill. So when she backstabs you have it on you and then its a must attack but then again... arachna. You won't be able to strike her really.. :P
So we are in a pickle of balance. Dunno. Thats why the first skill, you can deal the first strike to her and then keep on her. Dumdeedum.. :D Lets see how this turns out and ill maybe make a 2.0 later when i get my comp back.. :D
