Dark Portal (Active) Opens a portal at the target location. Units that enter the portal will teleport to the location of the Dark Ranger. Duration, Cooldown, Mana Cost decrease with level. Range increases with level.
Death Thirst (Active) The target unit is silenced and attacks faster. Whilst silenced, any unit it kills will be reanimated under the Dark Ranger's control. Duration and Cooldown decrease with level. Mana Cost, Animation Duration and Attack Speed increase with level.
Desolation Aura (Aura) Affected units move slower, and regenerate at a reduced rate. Speed Reduction and Degeneration increase with level.
Eternal Fortress (Active) [Ultimate] Creates a Fortress. The Fortress allows the Dark Ranger to have more units, and can construct additional units. Also has a slowing attack. May only have up to 1 Eternal Fortress. Additional Units, Area of Effect for attacking, Unit-types, Range of Eternal Fortress increases with level.
The Fortress has a 20-30 damage. Or any number around there.
The Fortress can train different types of Skeletons, each slightly more powerful than a normal creep spawn, but with a timed life.

The ultimate has the potential to be really rigged. I don't get dark portal, since it seems only useful to port allies. Death thirst doesn't make that much sense: is it only targetable to allies or enemies? How does it work. Reanimated as a skeli or as it was?

the ult is rigged, not potential to be rigged. the aura is not degeneration b/c degen means opposite of regen regen is goes up(hp being healed for set amount over a period) degen means down(minus some number of hp per sec) but the aura say it slows down regen not subtract hp. Death Thirst can be potential rigged if it animates the unit that was killed.

Aura slows regeneration, but it says degeneration because I didn't have any other way to express it.
I don't see how the Ult is rigged considering you are allowed to actually hire Elite Mercenaries and they'll still cost you gold. You're just allowed to have more and a tower that deals 20-30 damage with splash frost.
Death Thirst reanimates the unit, it is considered to be "Summoned" and an "Undead", but obviously doesn't work on Mechcanical, Air and anything that doesn't leave a corpse, and definately with a 10s duration at the maximum level or something on those lines so you can't raise 999999999 units with it.
Dark Portal teleports allies to your location, anything that belongs to a player whos on your team is affected by this. Including heros.

Well, I'll change it to spawn Skeletons that are roughly the power of standard spawns in addition to have an expiration timer.

lol he took it out b/c i was spamming a pwnage unit for brown every game as south team and it seems i was only one that ever did that and it pwns ppl it only required one of those units that revives other units i had gotten otver 13/5 units wit it.
plus why would u give a tower that u can buy units at attack at same time??? either u remove the attack or the units that can be purcashable

It doesn't exactly do enough damage to kill anything, it's mostly there for the Slowing effect.
The damage is going to be almost negligable.

Meh. 1/4 hit points per second won't do much. Its a matter of numbers. Less than 1% per second is good.

The tower is going to have uber slow attack speed -_- K?
In fact if it had 5000 HP against a bunch of creeps, it would die before it kills anything. (Example)

While I normally hate it myself when the new guy starts reviewing my heroes, I just wanted you to know that I'm no stranger to hero suggestions, so here goes...
I like the potential feel you've got brewing with Death Thirst and Eternal Fortress, but the two other skills don't seem to reinforce this style. Dark portal is nice, but unless you end up rather far from the Eternal Fortress, it won't actually do much. And Desolation Aura seems to be going a completely different direction than the rest of the hero.
So, I'd say the first priority would be to replace Desolation Aura with something that would somehow help a hero that can silence herself. I like the idea of an aura, but I'm sure there's something more fun/inventive we can do. How about this...
Perpetual Death: If the timed life of any unit created by the Dark Ranger runs out, and there is a corpse within some small radius of it, it will respawn at full health and timer from the corpse. Activates at most once every X seconds.
Not the best, but meh, it could be fun.
... ... ...
Ok, to be honest, other than "replace Desolation Aura", I don't have much to add. It's simple compared to what I normally review, but it works. Good job.

I'm not sure this is true to the concept of dark ranger. The dark ranger hero was designed as a uber-banshee. This hero basically tried to compress all four old dark ranger abilities into death thirst, and made new ones. While not bad, this doesn't really seem like either a banshee or a ranger. No bow abilities, and no banshee abilities. This seems more like a new hero (which isn't bad) but not a remake.
