(Champion concept) Veer, the forgotten
Teaser: "I am the wanderer in your stories, I am the monster under the bed, I am your closest friend, and your mortal enemy. I have seen what you see, I have been where you are. You knew me once and you met me before. I am ageless, I am a ghost, I am forgotten."
The video shows multiple glimpses from various angles of the champion. Each image is vague and dominantly shadowed out. In each vision it shows depictions of other champions with very slight differences. Like the edge of Garen's cloak but it's color is off. OR Rumble's machine's flamethrower but it's on the wrong arm. The last image shows a dark hooded figure who turns away as they drop their hood. The screen fades to black as it says "...I am forgotten."
Description: Veer has no gender and no race. Its voice sounds like a man and woman talking at the same time. Veer is a master mage. Veer has remained hidden through its powers of shape shifting. Veer has appeared in the lore and graphics of multiple champions under the disguise of someone/something else. Veer looks like a person in a long dark cloak when moving, a wolf when it Sprints, and a bird when it recalls. In each form veer holds a mark that glows. This mark is on the scythe in Veer's hands in human form. Veer's taunt is to look like and mimic a champion if their standing close enough.
Lore: After watching his loved ones die of old age for the 3rd lifetime in a row the young apprentice began cursing his father for ever making him ageless. What was supposed to be the ultimate gift of a father to his son turned into the ultimate curse. His rage grew with every passing lifetime until he decided to continue his study in the magics and solve his dilemma permanently. Rather than just kill himself he wanted to die in love and with children. Unfortunately infertility had proven to be a side effect of his curse. His first goal would be to make for himself a companion that could live the way he did, incase he needed more than one lifetime to learn his desired spell. Years after falling in love with a young woman he revealed to her his condition and ask for her to join him in his curse. A difficult decision for any person of course, his young lover decided that any curse would be bare able if she had him to go through it with. Their love had proven to conquer all when he finally replicated his fathers experiment and cursed his wife to join him for eternity. The two were inseparable for years before they both agreed to begin tests to has rid themselves of this infertility. During one of the tests something went catastrophically wrong and the spell backfired. A violent explosion merged the two loved ones into a single person. They were disfigured grossly and had to kiss goodbye any hope of having children now. They were closer than ever before but not in any way they wanted. Now a master mage, casted a spell that would make them appear normal to the world. This spell requires the essence of those who have recently died. They were both so gentle at heart that they could never hurt anything for this essence, instead they would have to wait patiently for something/someone to die without their assistance. The two wandered the globe endlessly collecting essence for their appearance until they finally had enough to appear as normal. The spell was a complete success this time but of course it was only meant to last one lifetime. When they discovered its temporary effects they again wandered to collect the essence of others. After several lifetimes perfecting this technique they learned how to appear as anything living by collecting the essence of those creatures. Slowly the "they" became an "it" thinking and acting as one mind. Eventually this collection turned into an addiction and it needed a way to upkeep its savage addiction. It searched far and wide until it came across the league of legends, a place with endless essence and with plenty of death. It joined under the name Veer, one the two had agreed would have been the name of the child they never had.
