To answer your first question, try AP or mpen reds, Gold/10 yellows, CDR blues, and gold/10 quints. typical support masteries, I suppose. start with the shield. for items, I find goiing full AP works amazingly well, due to how much money you'll get from runes/masteries and assists. keep the ball on your carry. one of the main weaknesses many complain about is the ball's travel speed, but if it doesn't have to go anywhere, the shield is instant. USE THOSE REFLEXES!I like rushing tear to arch so I can spam the shield and AoE MS buff as much as possible. CDR boots to get the shield off CD even faster.

your skills should go: R>E>W>Q the shield is 30 free armor and mres for whoever is holding the ball, not to mention a good bit of damage prevention. the AoE MS buff/debuff can get your teammates into a fight or out of a bad spot incredibly well. the Q is mainly for positioning your ult or that slow.

From someone who enjoys supporting as ori, I hope this helped.
