The winning hero of the Design-A-Hero contest last year, the Geomancer, is in development. The recent tweet from S2 Games developer Nome spill the beans.
The intelligence hero's name is going to be "Serqet", named after an ancient Egyptian scorpion goddess.
- "I'm using the Scorpion Magmus model as temp art while I rig up the hero, so it seemed fitting, as I tend to dole out mythological names to all the heroes I work on," said Nome.
The hero uses effects from Sand Wraith, Pebbles, Rampage and Minotaur right now.
We also find out that Nome is the only one working on the hero. He thinks of the Geomancer as a very mature design, saying it's "extremely simple, but very effective and unique".
Other heroes that are worked on are Dampeer and Empath. Further development updates can be found on [S2]Nome's Twitter feed.
