Hi there!
I came across @waxen otter's TikTok (https://www.tiktok.com/@bapbapgg/video/7301377181438070022) recently, where they were asking about what type of Kit/Archetype "Kate, the Catmancer" should have, so I thought it would be fun to contribute since it's my dream to see BapBap include support characters in their roster :)

I believe introducing more umm.. "feminine" Champions (Heroes? Bapsters?) would open up a whole new player base / target audience for Bap, also adding more diverse playstyles which.. sounds like positives to me ~

P.S. I know she technically already has the name "Kate" but I liked the name "Lucy" for her, so I rolled with that ^_^
Also sorry for any iffy grammar or wording issues; I'm from the EU.

Lucy, the Catmancer:

Spirit (Passive):

Lucy possesses a Spirit Bar that fills each time her ability, Cat Spirit, successfully steals spirit from an enemy. This resource enhances the power of her ultimate.
Spirit gained through PvE combat is significantly lower than that acquired from players.

Note: This design aims to discourage the "afk support" playstyles, promoting a more proactive approach. I was a Poloma one-trick in battlerite and I might have drawn some inspiration from that while creating Lucy in case her main ability part of her kit might seem familiar to you from somewhere :P

Ethereal Swipe (Basic Attack):

Lucy swipes into the air, sending out ethereal claws.

Note: I couldn't come up with a cool ranged basic attack idea; suggestions are welcome :)

Spirit Leap (Space):

Jump through the Spirit World to appear at the target location.

Note: Just a blink ability, didn't want to add any additional effects to avoid overloading her kit

Cat Spirit (Main Ability):

Lucy summons her Cat spirit animal, propelling it forward. Successfully hitting an enemy damages them, stealing their spirit, and seeking a nearby ally to heal them.

Note: A long-range, thin ability that requires skill to land and use effectively.

Cat's Blessing (Ultimate):

Lucy rings her bell (refer to TikTok to see her design) to grant an ally a Blessing. Bestowing a shield based on her stored Spirit and a fixed amount of movement speed.

Note: Without filling up any Spirit beforehand, the shield would be minimal, primarily used for the movement speed buff.

Cat's Blessing (Alterate Version ultimate):

Lucy sends out her cat spirit to seek a nearby ally, granting them the feasted Spirit. Bestowing a shield based on her stored Spirit and a fixed amount of movement speed.

Note: If targeted spells are an issue for the devs, this alternative version would fit more into their vision for the game.
Imagine a circle around the cat; as soon as an ally enters it, the cat rushes towards them, granting the buff. The skill itself would just be a straight skillshot

this concept fills me with INSPIRATION, normally im a bit iffy on supports in bap but this seems like it would fit well into the game, the support aspects are meaningful and they seem fun to play with and against, though the healing targeting the closest ally seems a little strange to me, mayhaps it should be the ally with the lowest health percentage instead? in a trio with this character in it i wouldn't want my higher health teammate getting healed as opposed to me, but im not entirely sure. Overall i am quite a fan of this CONCEPT.

holy froggy thats a lot of text

hmm interesting me likey

#

lots of cat motif

#

sometimes when characters with certain motifs get added they don't have enough of that to justify their design having so much of it

#

very cool how you tried to design it around the motif
