Comments
Devour Essence is Melee and does not benefit from Ego or ranged specs.
If you only plan to CC via root or the stun from the breath, that's not a lot of CC.
You need to focus a bit on one aspect (CC) or the other (DPS). You can still play an hybrid character of course, but right now the mix of ranged/melee, support and heal is a bit scattered.
What would you like the main aspect to be?
My Characters
Ava Ferris was a weird girl growing up. She experimented with different types of toxins in search of a new "buzz," perhaps the thrill of tempting death or the want to test herself. She drank different types of poisons and toyed with hazardous materials, not realizing what was taking place physiologically. Once she came into contact with Draysha, she found the ultimate high. In an already foolish move she consumed too much, however her immunity to other poisons defied its detrimental effects to her body. What would otherwise be a temporary steroidal side effect became permanent, and Ava found she was capable of doing some incredible things.
She developed venomous glands in her mouth that she could projectile spit in far distances. Her eyes could now flash in a strobe-like fashion, much akin to cuttlefish and their ability to hypnotize prey. Her physical skills soared beyond normal capacity and allowed her to bound large distances. All things have their balance however, as her skin became necrotic and hard. She no longer found sustenance in non-meat options, and found the rarer it was the better it became to consume. She would never live a regular life again, but many would argue she never did to begin with...

Doesn't sound like a hero, I'm guessing she's morally gray at best?
How did she come in contact with VIPER's "draysha gas?" (Another Champions concept distorted by Cryptic.)
To satiate her bizarre vices, she joined a group of activists promoting the disposal of toxic waste in the jungle. VIPER happened to have a nest in the area. Seeing as she was exhibiting signs of necrosis she was placed under quarantine in the field infirmary, which is when VIPER came back for their missing supply. She was able to avoid being seen during the raid on their camp, but had a first glance view of the brutality of the terrorist organization. After losing her friends, and seeing them take away her precious toxins, she vowed to hone her skills into a force that she could one day utilize against them.
Also, thank you for the rework. I'll try using it now!

The open power slot can be w/e ya want.
It's a bit of a combo of a dps, CC, and support unit, though ofc not really excelling at any of them. You do provide very good debuffs and some CC for your team, though, and that can help make up for your own lower dps. Charged Condemn can be your main attack here- to put up and roll the debuffs, w/ the Wisp helping to debuff, Life Essence helping to heal, and IBlast as cheap & long-ranged attack that can build up and help spread Poisons. Crip Coils can also be used as an extra CC/debuff option here. Gears mostly for Pres, w/ some Con and End/Rec.

Or you can make it more of a normal Support build, but like Jaaz said we'd need some more details.

What you will NOT be doing is topping the score chart in cosmics or play a specific role extremely well (i.e. kiga dog-sitter).
