Ivan, The Iron Hearted (Caitlyn Rival)
"There is one truth in this world: being a hero is overrated." - Ivan, the Iron Hearted
Many years ago in the City of Progress, the position for sheriff was empty. During that time where crime reigned supreme, where the citizens were afraid, where no one and nothing was safe from corruption's evil, there were many different peoples whom had stepped forward to make a difference. Many of those said peoples failed, died, disappeared during their campaigns to free Piltover from its decaying self. Nevertheless, as Caitlyn went on to begin her legendary revolution against injustice, there was one young man in the shadows - a brilliant, skilled, determined Piltovian street rat - who excelled at street smarts as well as specialized in marksmanship with most any gun. With his gifts, with his profound intelligence, the street rat in question made the enemies of his home city fear his presence. He, off to the side, made a feared name for himself and earned the adoration of many folk.
Although many do not know him today, while Caitlyn performed her own missions elsewhere in the City of Progress, this young street rat who fought crime in his own way was Ivan T'Lore. And he, like Caitlyn, amassed plenty of support, fame along with fortune during his struggles against the enemies of Piltover. Yet, as fate decreed then those many years ago, when justice and law had been secured for the City of Progress, Ivan did not earn himself the rank of Sheriff like he'd hoped all during his work. No, despite all of his sacrifices, where Caitlyn had received the position due to her honor bound if not merciful methods of taking her targets alive, Ivan lost the right to become sheriff... when everyone discovered that he'd not arrested but killed, tortured along with broken all of his enemies during his work.
And truly, even though he'd heroically done so for his home city, Ivan had been a monster while taking the matters of the law into his own hands. Every foe he'd encountered hadn't left the scene alive. Every victim he'd interrogated for information had breathed his or her last after the interview. Every victory he'd gained for the peoples of Piltover... had been stained in blood. Thus, with such a bloody reputation, no matter his arguments, Ivan couldn't have been given the title as Sheriff. In turn, feeling betrayed by everyone he'd helped or held dear, he gradually took to believing something else: "Heroes weren't appreciated. They were overrated."
When he lost the right to become sheriff of Piltover back in the day, consumed with rage over how humiliated he was, Ivan left his home and submitted to a new way of life which appreciated his skills, his isolation, his ways of silencing everyone who stood in his way. He became a wandering bounty hunter at first. Then, seeking better challenges, he discovered the Soldier of Fortune career was more rewarding. Finally, corrupted with his lust for power, after having had his right arm removed by the cyborg, Zaunite genius Viktor and replaced with a robotic limb to improve his overall performance, Ivan sold himself as an assassin to the alliance between Zaun as well as Noxus where he soon took part in the politics of the Ionia invasion. Soon enough, he was responsible for the quiet, merciless assassinations of many good-hearted leaders worldwide whom wanted Ionia freed.
After Ionia finally liberated itself from the invading forces against it, seeing as he would've been hunted by everyone everywhere for his crimes, bitter Ivan was left with little choice than to remain within the protection of his contractors in Zaun/Noxus. During those tense days, no matter how impossible, he took on any mission that came his way. Still, there was one memory that always enraged him. There was always one city that made him seethe with fury. There was always one face, a certain sheriff's face, Caitlyn's face, that made him remember his past. And it was those things, those memories of his humiliation in Piltover, that caused him to eventually join the ranks of the League of Legends. It is those things... that now make him fight on the Fields of Justice as a most unpredictable, cruel rogue against order, balance, supposed justice.
Appearance: Seeing as I've always imagined him with a robotic, lethally designed arm that could take on Vi's own reinforced gauntlets if given the chance, it might be best to imagine Ivan almost like Bucky from the recently released Captain America: Winter Soldier movie. Considering they've been longtime rivals since the revolution as well as stabilization of Piltover, Ivan is a guy about the same age of Caitlyn. Anyway, he has steel blue eyes, ink black hair shoulder length long, wears a light bullet proof vest only so he shows a bit of skin upper torso, wears cargo styled pants complete with heavy duty boots and he wields a custom, crudely made sniper rifle that is supposed to be a mockery of Caitlyn's own weapon.
