Originally nothing more than a lowly spirit of the trees, Io dwelt peacefully amongst his kind in the Great Forest. As the Great War spread across the land the creatures of the forest were forced to defend their home.

The desire to protect his kin awoke power in Io he had not known he possessed. He discovered he was able to connect his life force to another creature to strengthen them or help them flee by instantly teleporting them out of harm. Io became known amongst his people as the Guardian Wisp, a protector of the Spirits.

All other spirits swore to assist him and can be summoned to his side to aid him in his battle. Uninterested in the battle between Sentinel and Scourge, Io fights only to protect his people.

Tether (T)
Io tethers himself to an allied unit, granting both units bonus movement speed. Any enemy units that contact the tether will be stunned. The tether will break if it stretches beyond 900 units. Lasts 12 seconds.
Level 1 - 15% movement bonus with 1 stun duration.
Level 2 - 20% movement bonus with 1.25 stun duration.
Level 3 - 25% movement bonus with 1.5 stun duration.
Level 4 - 30% movement bonus with 1.75 stun duration.
• If you try to tether a unit that is a outside its range (by up to 900) Io will latch on and pull himself closer to the unit.
• Tether transfers other states on the hero to the allied unit. This includes Overcharge, Relocate and any time you regenerate hp/mp.
• Has a sub ability that lets you break the tether.

Spirits (W)
Io summons 5 ancient Spirits over the course of 6 seconds; the Spirits dance around Io in a circle to protect him.

Io draws on more energy than he can safely handle, granting him bonus attack speed, but draining 2.5% of his current HP and MP per second. If Io is tethered to an ally the bonus attack speed is also granted to that ally.
Level 1 - 60 bonus attack speed.
Level 2 - 80 bonus attack speed.
