Ancestral Spear
Shoots a spear. When the spear hits the target, it becomes like a chain lightning with healing wave as the special effect.

Totem Of The Gods
Summons a totem from the ground that creates an army of spirit walkers in your command (with limited time).

Spirit Of The Ancient
Passive: Increases your health and health regeneration.

Pulverized Spear
When the spear hits the target, it has splash damage.

Ancestral Spear and Spirit of the Ancients approved :thup:

 

[Moridin]

<Name #1>:
Throws a spear in a direction in a straight line. Impales all enemies along that line, causing them to suffer bleeding for a period of time. Bleeding damages them over time as well as drains their strength temporarily.

For the name of ^ ability...there's this one guy (whose name escapes me) who threw a spear around the world (mythology). I would base the name on his name.

also:
Tauren's Might: (think of a better name please )
The tauren hurls a spear. The spear has a HUGE range and hits only it's first target (the first enemy it reaches). It deals damage based on how far it travelled. (more distance = more damage)

King Leonidas?! THIS IS SPARTA!! LOL...

 

[Moridin]

ahahaha. No I don't think it was him . A name based on him would be cool though....Leonidas' Spear or Spear of Leon or something like that.

Odin's spear, I think it's like Gungnir or something.

This might seem a bit overpowered, but I want to make a fun/not boring ability so:

---
Spear Chieftan: (Passive)
Allows him to make melee attacks as well as ranged attacks, depending on the distance between him and his target. Gives him the sub-ability "Flurry".

Melee attack: damage - same as ranged. Attack Speed - 150% of ranged.

Flurry: (Sub-ability)
He spins his spear like a quarterstaff infront of him. All enemies in a cone infront of him get pushed back as well as hurt. If an enemy tries hitting him from this cone, the enemy misses (the tauren deflects it) <-- Note: not including magic attacks. Flurry lasts for a period of time.
---
OR
---
Spear Chieftan: (Passive)
The chieftan dual wields two spears, allowing him to make two successive attacks (one with each). This allows him to hit one enemy twice, or two enemies once. Each spear has a % chance of stunning the target.

Throw Spears
Active, Target Point. Rapidly throws multiple spears towards target point. Spears deal damage to first enemy unit they come contact with.

( Spears dont go exactly towards target point angle, but somewhere around it. Spear thrower rapidly plays attack animation, when spears appear one by one. Kind like some spear machine gun thingy )

Ancestors Guide Me
Active, Target Unit. Calls a spirit of dead tauren to float above enemy target. Spirit calls all friendly units around target to attack this unit. Target unit takes X % extra damage during the duration of this spell.

( Also spears thrown by Throw Spears -spell start to hunt this target like some cool homing missiles. )

He Lives In You
Active, Takes no target. Caster calls the spirit of his dead father to protect him. This great tauren spirit cant be attacked. It always follows caster, and attacks nearby enemies with forceful knockbacking attack.

( Spirit always moves to casters location. Its very big and transparent, so you can see your caster inside it. Its attack deal damage and knockback target away. This spell is mainly used to protect caster from melee enemies. )

Spirit Link
Ultimate, Active, Unit Target. Links Target unit together with caster. As long as one of them lives, other cant truly die. Link is broken if units go too far from each other. ( edit. Or mybe not. Its an ultimate afterall. )

( When linked unit is about to die under this effect, it will turn to sort of ghost ( transparent, greenish colour ) and doesnt take any damage, has attack disabled, but can still cast spells. If both units turn to ghosts they die, if only one of them is ghost when spell duration ends, its health is fully restored and it returns back to its normal state )

edit. Actually, this should take 2 targets, because otherwise its kinda weak. If you dont know how to make multitargetting spells, just make it to take some random unit near target. With multiple targets, units survive as long as one of them lives.

How about these?

Kodo-Bone Spear (Passive)
The Tauren Spearthrower carves his spears out of solid Kodo bone. This hard material pierces straight through the Spearthrowers enemies, damaging the enemies 250 distance behind it for 10/20/30% of the original damage.

Mighty Throw (Active, Autocast)
The Tauren Spearthrower uses his massive strength to lodge a spear at the target, dealing 0.5/1.0/1.5 times his strength in bonus damage. In addition, he has a 20% chance to hit a vital organ and deal another 1.5 times normal damage.

Eye of Gaia (Active, Single Target)
The Tauren Spearthrower calls upon the all-seeing eye of mother earth to show him the target enemy. This grants him vision of the target, even through invisibility, and allows him to lodge spears at the target from up to 800/1000/1200 distance. Lasts for 8/12/16 seconds.

Impaling Spear (Active, single target)
The Tauren Spearthrower throws a spear at the target, pinning him to the ground. The impact deals 80/120/160 damage in a 250 radius around the point of impact and stuns all enemies in that area for 0.5 second. The target remains bound for another 2/3/4 seconds.

Spiritual Aid (Passive)
Whenever the Tauren Spearthrower kill an unit, he has a 10/15/20% chance to spawn an ancestoral spirit for 20 seconds. This invisible spirit can move around and scout the area for the Tauren, as well as sacrefice himself to burn 50/80/110 of an enemies mana and deal the equal in damage. Heroes have a 100% chance of creating such a spirit upon kill. Up to 5 spirits can be maintained at a time.
