What Heimdall does
Fills Vanir Charges by hitting, Blocking and getting hit, and each time he reaches 100 his next action turns them into a 15-second Precision, Fury or Armor Up depending on what that action was. Charging a Heavy turns one of those into an indefinite copy (up to 5 of each), his Specials grant True Strike, and Special 3 converts all his Buffs into stronger Passives.
Poison or Incinerate on him pauses all of it, though he resists both by 60%.
Profile
Heimdall carries the title "Guardian of the Rainbow Bridge".
Background
One of the greatest warriors of Asgard, Heimdall was appointed Guardian of the Rainbow Bridge for all time, by Odin All-Father.
His eyes can see all of creation, and his ears can hear a whisper from anywhere in the Nine Realms.
Heimdall has many times saved Asgard, detecting threats long before they can become a danger, and either dispatching the threat himself or sounding Gjallarhorn to call forth the other defenders of Asgard.
