Aurum Dragni

"'An illusionist like no other, Aurum Dragni made a name for herself when she convinced Hordelorde Aulgart that his shoes were untied, when he was in fact a bloon that could not wear shoes.'"

Aurum Dragni is a Hero added in Bloons TD 7: Dark Times. She is a mage type hero and is referred to as 'The Elusive One' in her subtitle. Her main powers relate to that of light and trickery.

Lore
Aurum Dragni began as a typical student in the academy of magic at Prideshead. In her childhood, she remembered famous magicians coming to the city, and preforming on street corners, and from that time she discovered her affinity for the art of magic. But not just any magic, like her favorite street performers, she was fond of illusions and deception to outwit her foes rather than destroy them.

After three years in the academy she dropped out due to not getting the experience she desired from training. For the next two years she would visit the western temples and study the ancient books provided by the Monkey Sages, gaining profound skill in the very branches of magic she yearned to become adept at.

However, the western temples fell under attack from the Defiled Horde one day not long before the Soul Fracture. She helped the Sages defend their archives, and ended the attack by confronting Hordelorde Aulgart himself. In an act of complete embarrassment, she made a fool of Aulgart by making him believe his shoe was untied, causing him to fall back so that he may restore his dignity in the Outlands.

She returned to Prideshead after that, just in time for the Soul Fracture. Now, having made friends with Sir Raymond III, she seconds in command the rebellion of Prideshead in their efforts to put to rest again the Prince of Darkness.

Design
Aurum Dragni looks like a rather young female monkey in a long white and gold robe. On top of her head is a white hat similar to that of a magician, but with a golden band around it. She wears a pair of squared glasses. Above her open left hand floats a magical glassy orb made of milky marble, which exuberates a certain aura and seems to bend the light around it.

Stats

 * Cost: $600 on Medium
 * Attack Type: In the entirety of her range, a burst of golden light will shoot out from her orb. This pops 1 layer off of up to 10 bloons in her range, prioritizing the ones of her target preference.
 * Attack Speed: 2 seconds
 * Range: Comparable to a x/x/3 Dart Monkey

Abilities

 * Copyclone: Aurum Dragni makes an illusion of herself in a nearby location outside of her range. This illusion persists for 10 seconds, and will attack as she does. Has a 40 second cooldown.
 * Warplight: Aurum waves her hand in a golden light, as up to 20 non-MOAB class bloons in her range are warped back anywhere from 20-40% of the track if the distance allows it. Has a 40 second cooldown.
 * Prismbreak: Aurum throws her orb into the air, as it seems to grow in size. From the orb, a powerful beam of rainbow energy will spin in a 360 degree angle starting from beneath it, popping 2 layers per second of every bloon within it. The full revolution will occur in 4 seconds, and Aurum will not be able to attack during this time. Has a 90 second cooldown and requires 1 round to pass between use.

 * Level 26: Aurum's waves of light now deal 4x damage to MOAB-class bloons.
 * Level 27: Aurum now fires two additional beams of light at 45 degree angles from the main beam when using her light ray attack.
 * Level 28: Every tenth bloon popped by Prismbreak will cause the orb to release a ring of light that removes 1 layer from all bloons on screen. The waves cycle between red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.
 * Level 29: Warplight now sends bloons all the way back to the beginning of the track no matter what. Bloons sent back by Warplight suffer 5 damage. This is 5x as damaging for MOAB-class bloons.
 * Level 30: Aurum gains two permanent Copyclones randomly around the map. These two will copy uses of Warplight, but not of Prismbreak. Using Copyclone still summons two additional temporary clones which will copy both of her other abilities. Aurum's beams of light attack now reflects on up to 4 additional targets per beam and sets MOAB-class bloons on fire. Prismbreak now lasts twice as long, having the rainbow beam make two full revolutions around. However, it now can only be used every other round.
