Lucius Virion-Elluin Elenasto was born to high nobility. He thought he knew what he was getting into when he joined the Heroes of Aerois, but then he met his first cow. Dreadful, evil creatures. Lucius is slowly coming out of his nobility shell as he continues to learn the true value of comradery, friendship, and a world without barriers.
Lucius has needed an update for a while now, and we're happy to finally dive in and modernize his design.
As an added surprise to this event, we've also made some small updates to how each of the other Heroes of Aerois Champions (Aila, Qillek, Sentry, and Nova) contributes stacks of Aerois Synergy! Lets take a look at the new-and-improved Lucius Virion-Elluin Elenasto and the updates to his friends!

Abilities
Passive Abilities
- CosmeticChromat CasterLucius alternates his attacks between two spells: Acid Splash and Ray of Frost.
Basic Attack
- CosmeticAcid Splash (magic)Lucius attacks a random enemy with Acid Splash, dealing damage. Prefers enemies not affected by acid.
- CosmeticRay of Frost (magic)Lucius attacks the furthest enemy with Ray of Frost, dealing damage and also damaging all enemies along a line between him and the enemy.
Formation Abilities
Arcane Chromat - Acid - Enemies damaged by Acid Splash gain one stack of Acid. Each stack of Acid causes the enemy to take 400% more damage from all of Lucius' subsequent attacks, stacking multiplicatively up to 10 times.
Arcane Chromat - Cold - Enemies damaged by Ray of Frost are slowed by 50% for 10 seconds. Enemies slowed by this ability take 400% more damage from all of Lucius' attacks for each slow, stun, or root affecting them (stacking multiplicatively), including this slow.
Elemental Adept - When an enemy is affected by both of Lucius' Arcane Chromat abilities at the same time they are stunned for 3 seconds. When the stun expires they "explode" with acid and ice, applying one stack of Acid and dealing 10 seconds of BUD-based damage to themselves and all enemies in a small radius. The exploding enemy's Arcane Chromat - Cold debuff is then consumed.
Aerois Synergy - Lucius contributes 2 stacks to Aerois Synergy every time Elemental Adept is triggered; if a boss enemy is combo'd it adds an additional 8 stacks (10 total). Lucius' maximum number of stacks is 200 plus the highest area completed in the current run divided by 5 (rounded down). 10% of his contributed stacks are removed when changing areas. Lucius' base damage is increased by 50% times the total number of Aerois Synergy stacks, with this bonus doubling for every 100 total stacks.
- CosmeticArmor Eating AcidEnemies with segmented health lose 1 extra segment when Lucius damages them with his Acid Splash attack or Elemental Adept explosion.
Specializations
Dichromancy - Lucius gains a Dichromancy stack every time the Elemental Adept ability triggers an explosion. Lucius' damage is increased by 100% for each Dichromancy stack he has, stacking multiplicatively up to
