Lore

Io is everywhere, a Fundamental of the universe, older than time. This sentient force binds existence together, and its presence is only felt when it warps the electrical waylines. Benevolent and cooperative, Io enhances allies' power, moving through the physical plane as a perfect expression of the universe's mysteries.

Tether

Unit Target

Tethers Io to an allied unit, granting bonus movement speed to both. When Io restores health or mana, the tethered unit gains a portion of that amount. The tether breaks when the allied unit moves too far away, or Io cancels the tether. Tether slows enemies touching it.
