    I didn't want to hi-jack the other Votaev thread as I had a different direction for Votaev in mind.

    The model I used for quality of the rune was Princess Ctharia since I can't see Votaev as anything other than a Hero and Princess Ctharia was an unanswered Hero for all the other factions. The proposed signature ability is designed to be a modified Votaev's Grasp which ofcourse shares the namesake of the rune and thus should make sense lore-wise. Intended to be a support rune, upgrades are intended to allow further support than it has base, more survivability to keep it on the field since it's fairly costly to deploy, or allow it to be used offensively so it's a more traditional UD rune on a model that is somewhat shared with Imp Vixen of weak (relatively) champ that grows in strength and survivability over time.

    It's just sort of a mix of Votaev's Grasp and Coven Claw. I changing it to demon only just because it makes more sense with the text on Altar of Votaev. I'm not sure something like it would work as a racial per say, a new theme around Votaev sounds nice, but UD are pretty much just all demons breaking apart for Arthropods and Beasts slightly, Bok as is are just tied together by a loose blood theme, so I'm not sure Lower Demons would be deserving of a racial considering they're still just demon like the current Bok and would require all new runes to create a theme from scratch.
