Allow me to reply to your post in bullet-points as well to ease the writing. Thank you for your praise, and get hyped for Heaven's Feel!
 * Firstly, as you should be able to read in the disclaimer, I do not claim Darssan to be an original character, but I think it is a bit unfair to say that I morphed True Assassin into Darssan. Basically what I did was I laid out True Assassin as a character, inspected his tropes, and used him as a template and visual reference to a champion in LoL I could envision. Darssan is in no way supposed to be LoL's version of True Assassin, nor my envisioning of an ideal True Assassin.
 * As mentioned above, the quotes are directly linked to Darssan's attitude, not True Assassin. And while they were rushed and are admittedly not of the highest quality I could've produced, they were never meant to give Darssan the personality of True Assassin.
 * I think Primus was saying that the ability descriptions were either too verbose or some aspects of them were redundant, but not the abilities themselves. As for their complexity, I wanted to truly inspire a unique thematic in Darssan through his kit, but I guess it just turned out ugly. The wording however, is a thing I will have to steadily work on, as this is how I naturally write formally. But all in all, no, the abilities weren't made complex for the sake of complexity or triggering headaches :). They also probably come off as more complex than they actually are just because of my style of writing.
