Aurora is a mage-assassin of the spirit realms: her passive exorcises the spirits of the enemies she damages, and they follow and heal her.

Aurora plays at range, places Twofold Hex on several targets, then recasts to pull the hexes. Her ultimate creates a slowing zone in which she teleports freely: she repositions within the fight without ever overexposing herself.
