Lore:
Long ago a blade master of ancient Ionia set out to craft the perfect blade. He sought to use two opposites within the sword to bring about perfect balance. Upon his travels he met the Solari, and took from them the knowledge of the sun's power. With the power of the sun in hand he wondered how he could obtain the opposite power, the Moon. However, an answer waited for him within the Barrier mountains. On his trek through them he met a tall, hooded man who told Zeras that he was a blacksmith. Zeras questioned him about uniting magic within weapons, and the stranger replied that it was possible and asked him what he had in mind. Zeras mentioned the idea of combining the Sun and the Moon's power within a blade to create a balance of the forces, and the stranger laughed. Why use the moon? The stranger asked, and suggested that he use the light of day, and the dark of night.
Intrigued Zeras asked the stranger to show him what he meant, and the man replied by bending the light outside the cave in which they slept. Then, making the shadows in the cave dance about. Zeras said he would desire very much the powers he was shown to be present within the blade he sought to make. The stranger warned him that combining two opposites could have unintended consequences, but Zeras insisted that it be done. The stranger went about setting up his forge, and the dawn of the next day was greeted by the birth of a sword as black as night. The stranger said he had done all he could, and that the rest was up to Zeras. As the sun's light filled the cave the stranger vanished, and the sword flared to life.
For months Zeras learned to master the sword's power, and wield the blade with a master's care. Upon returning to Iona, however, he was met with shock and horror at what he had done. They named the blade Calamity as the magics within the blade could destroy everything they touched, and bound both Zeras and the sword in magical chains.
Decades after the priest of the shrine where he was sealed away decided to bring his successor on his rounds. Wherein the boy saw Calamity sitting in it's bonds. The boy continued to follow the priest about his rounds each day until his desire for the sword had reached it's limits. Sneaking into the shrine late at night he unlocked the heavy chains from it's hilt, and the sword buried itself into his chest. It through the twisting tunnels of the shrine until it reached it's master bound in an ancient cell. It broke through the door, and fell lightly into his hand. That night a fountain of pure light shot into the sky, and in the morning the shrine was gone.
After travelling for a few days Zeras heard of the Institute of War, and the unending battles that were waged within it. He thought it would be the prefect place to test his powers after years out of practice. Pulling the light from Calamity into himself, he enhanced his body, and began to run.

Creator Notes:
Pre-Phase:
This champion was designed to be a re-work of the Midnight Star to be the Jungler for our Battle of the Concept tournament. Our focus was elements, so I took Light and Dark to be my own. Loving the idea of dual side champions I created Zeras. His light side excels in dealing high damage, while he dark side excels in healing and tanking. I think these ideals are shown through the abilities, and passive very well.
Please note that all abilities and numbers are subject to change.
