Magnus

A magnoceros whose horn the smiths of Mt. Joerlak value above any metal.

Magnus is a melee Strength hero in Dota 2 built for initiation. Shockwave sends a damaging wave forward, Empower boosts an ally's damage and gives them cleave, and Skewer drags enemies along as he charges. His ultimate, Reverse Polarity, pulls nearby enemies in front of him and stuns them.

Background

For years Magnus gored the hunters who came for his kin's horns and refused to flee. When Mt. Joerlak erupted and killed half his herd, he led a charge against a hundred hunters so the survivors could escape north, and the smiths still argue over what became of him.
