So, I'm in the process of adding heroes to my map, and I'm currently stumped for hero abilities at the moment. I could really use some ideas. My map has custom factions/races, so for more info on that, there's a link to my map's thread in my signature. Anyway, here's what I've got so far, and what I'll need.

Norsemen Heroes

Jarl - Strength Hero
, has Command Aura(Increases damage of nearby units). Needs two more leveled abilities and one ultimate.

Shadow Assassin - Agility Hero, has Wind Walk and Shadow Strike. Needs one more leveled ability and one ultimate.

Arch Druid - Intelligence Hero, has Healing Wave and Summon Grizzly. Needs one more leveled ability and one ultimate. I'd like the ultimate to revolve around human sacrifice, like you sacrifice a unit and it does something.

Undead Empire

Dark Lord - Strength Hero
, has Nether Blast(create blast of death energy at the target location), Dark Conversion (Charm), Reality Crush (teleport to a target location and do AoE damage and stun enemies at said target location), Unholy Rebirth (Reincarnation). Dark Lord is complete.

Death Knight - Agility Hero, has Death Touch(hurl a blast of dark energy that damages and stuns a target enemy and heals the Death Knight for the same amount), Unholy Aura, Reanimate (Animate Dead) and Corpse Explosion (Explode a corpse to deal damage to enemies). Death Knight is complete.

Vampire Lord - Intelligence Hero, has Bat Swarm (conjure a swarm of bats to damage and stun enemies), Bathe in Blood (recover health when killing a unit in melee combat), Drain Life, and Tyranny of the Sun(turn day to night for a set amount of time). Vampire Lord also has the innate ability, Gift of the Nightborne (grants increased attack speed and movement speed during the night). Vampire Lord is complete.

Drow

No heroes planned for the Drow, yet.

Elf Templar

Vindicator - Strength Hero
, has Justice Hammer (toss a hammer at a target location. When the hammer hits enemy units, it deals AoE damage and stuns), Holy Armor (temporarily increases the armor of a target unit while regenerating lost hit points), Devotion Aura, and Conviction (conjures waves of beams of holy light from the sky that deal damage to enemies). Vindicator is complete.

Rogue - Agility Hero, has True Shot Aura. Needs two more leveled abilities and one ultimate.

Inquisitor - Intelligence Hero, needs three leveled abilities and one ultimate.

Any and all ideas are appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help I receive!

Raid (Active): Increases move and attack speed of all nearby allied units, and gives 1 gold for every attack made.


Shadow Assassin:

Shadowsight (Active): Targets a unit. Gives sight of the enemy unit and gives it a high chance to miss attacks.
