Shie'Ala-The UPR Drone Specialist

Name: Shie’ala, Drone Specialist. Shie’ala is a member of the UPR and well renowned as a drone specialist to her peers. She fulfills a special function as an overwatch teammate in the military, always staying out of the fight, but providing tactical support whenever possible. She is skilled in the use of several drones, but she prefers to use an aerial reconnaissance drone. She joined the Battleborn because her superiors were too caught up in their own personal struggles to care about the last star in existence coming to an end.

Health: 1083

Shields: 300

Role: Supporter/Sniper/Controller/Advanced

Weapon: Tactical Repeating Crossbow. Much like how Thorn uses a bow, Shie’ala’s crossbow is a heavily modifiable semi-automatic weapon that is great at medium to close range encounters. It fires special bolts which mark enemies for 2 seconds upon getting hit, adding to her specialty as an overwatch support character.

Ability 1: Recon Drone: Shie’ala deploys a recon drone and takes control of it. While controlling it, it has a primary attack to mark enemies for a couple seconds. Enemies who are marked can be seen through the environment. Enemies can be repeatedly marked and take 45 damage per attack. The drone only remains active for fifteen seconds and only has 500 health making it very fragile.

Ability 2: Harmonic Armor: Shie’ala’s shield strength is increased by 150 points, recharge rate is increased by 35 per second and the recharge delay is cut by 2 seconds. These bonuses remain active until her shield breaks, if it breaks however, she emits a small explosion centered on her and damaging nearby enemies for 201 damage. Hitting the ability button again will detonate her shields.

Ultimate: Screw You.exe: Shie’ala uploads a deadly virus into enemy systems causing them to take 30% increased shield damage for the duration of the ability and marking them. Requires you to hold down the button for the ability to be active, but flags you on the map. Lasts for 6 up to seconds.

Talent: On My Mark: Hitting enemies with crossbow bolts or recon drone attacks marks enemies for two seconds.
