Lore:
And Where Nyarlathotep went, rest vanished for the small hours were rent with the screams of nightmare. Nyarlathotep is described as a "tall, swarthy man". He wanders the Earth, seemingly gathering legions of followers through his demonstrations of strange and seemingly magical instruments. he is active and frequently walks the Earth in the guise of a human being, usually a tall, slim, joyous man. He has a thousand other forms, most of these reputed to be maddeningly horrific. Most of the Outer Gods have their own cults serving them; Nyarlathotep seems to serve these cults and take care of the deities' affairs in their absence.

Passive Ability

Maddening Presence
Nyarlathotep Breaks Enemy gods sanity as he slays them in battle gaining crit chance against the dead god for every time he has killed them stacking up to 3 times granting the bonus crit chance after a time lock expires.
1 kill:30%
2 kills:50% granted after 10 minutes into the game
3 kills:70% granted after 20 minutes into the game

Nyarlathotep cannot gain the benefits of Item passives
Nyarlathotep's Lifesteal does not scale to crits.(ex: with 50% LS if i do 300 basic attack i still heal for 150 even if i crit)

Notes: his basic attack crit damage is capped off at 800 damage per hit. his crit chance varies per god depending on how many times he has killed them (ex: nyarlathotep kills neith 3 times and has 70% crit against her but hasnt killed ymir so he has none against him). the time lock is put in place so Nyarlathotep cant just get fed early and have 70% crit chance on one god at 5 minutes into the game.

Creator Notes

I had a lot of trouble contemplating what would be considered balanced with this character and spent about 3 hours after designing the god and his abilities trying to balance the damage and scaling and after my revisions i dont think he would be over powered. i did alot of math to reassure myself he wouldnt end up doing like 10000 basic attack damage since an basic attack crit mage hasnt ever been in smite. after close consideration and revision here are my results. i threw together what i believe a nyarlathotep build would look like in smite, since he is basic attack focused i knew that attack speed should be a priority so most of his builds will include rings as they are the primary attack speed item for magic damage types, if i was building nyarlathotep in a real smite game i would opt for atleast 2 rings so i can raise my attack speed over the 2/s mark so i decided on the 2 rings with the highest magic power because item passives dont matter due to maddening presence the rings i chose were ring of hectate and telkhines ring. at this point i realized wait i forgot boots and decided that shoes of magi would be best. at this point i figured i would try see how high i could get his basic attack damage and opped for the most magic power possible and added rod of tahuti, doom orb, and spear of desolation for a total of 670 magic power i then took this number and halved it because only 50% of his magic power affects his basic attack damage and added 84(his basic attack damage at lvl 20 no items) and got 419 for his basic attack damage this scales up and sticks at 800 damage on a crit due to every character having natural protections i tweaked the numbers down and they sit at about 370 basic attack damage and 740 a crit at this point i was relieved because i realized that those numbers are not far off for a physical damage crit assassin i then went back and revised my pure power build to something i feel would be much more popular in the meta and yes im looking at you anubis mains, i decided life steal would be pretty popular and took out rod of tahuti doom orb and spear of desolation and replaced them with bancrofts, typhons fang, and soul gem and the basic attack damage lays at around 300 per basic attack and 600 per crit with a whopping 62% lifesteal which i thought might be a problem so i added his life steal scaling and debated dumbing it down more then i realized wait anubis does it the only difference is he is ability based while nyarlathotep can sustain the damage output that accompanies healing then i realized only an idiot wouldnt build anti heal or just use some CC to keep him back because he is a melee character and noobs try that **** all the time with assassins and it doesnt work. in conclusion, he would be strong but not broken. just a noob stomper please upvote this took me like 5 hours to come up with
