Atropos the Bane Elemental has some of the most powerful disabling spells in the game. However, his spells are all single target, so deciding which heroes to cast his spells on in the thick of battle is a crucial skill for Atropos. Nightmare completely disables a target for a long time and deals minor damage, but comes with a drawback. The target can be woken at any time by either an allied or enemy attack, which transfers the Nightmare effect to the attacker. However, attacking a sleeping unit with spells will not transfer the Nightmare effect, making this a fantastic spell for setting up other allies' abilities that are difficult to hit. Brain Sap is a extremely deadly direct damage spell which is unreduced by magic resistance and heals the Bane Elemental with every cast. Enfeeble allows Atropos to render a physical attack hero practically useless for a long duration, and should not be underestimated. Fiend's Grip is the Bane Elemental's most feared ability. This spell deals huge amounts of damage, drains a lot of mana from the target, and completely disables them as long as Atropos is channeling, allowing allies to move in for the kill. With the ability to effectively disable three heroes at once, the Bane Elemental is a great hero for manipulating battles and ambushing enemies.
Atropos is an elemental force personifying the nightmares and fear of this world. He manifests where there is promise of inflicting horror and feeding off dread. Sapping his foes' psyche heals him. Manifesting his enemies' fears, he greatly enfeebles their ability to fight. He revels in disabling foes by sending them into dread slumber. When need be he can rip his soul and force it into his foes, effectively immobilizing them with despair and pain. Atropos is, in one word, Fear.
