[CHAMPION CONCEPT] Grix, the Shadow of the Jungle
BACKGROUND Grix is an extremely large chameleon-like creature that lived in the Plague Jungles. A master at the art of stealth and assassination, Grix puts fear into the hearts of his enemies through mind play and clever use of his tongue (and don't think of that in the wrong way). A strong Middle Lane Assassin or Jungle Assassin, Grix can pull in his prey for a swift death.
LORE The Plague Jungles are an unforgiving landscape of death and disease, hence the name. All who enter put their life at risk of being hunted down by creatures, killers, and the jungle itself. Many explorers who have entered the jungle, however, know of no threat to their lives more than Grix. A large reptilian creature that hunts all who enter the jungle and has no mercy for those he captures, Grix is known for his efficiency in disposal. Grix may not have been the king of the jungle, but he was the one who decided who could be the mightiest for he could slay them without even blinking or breaking a sweat. However, in recent years, Bandle City has began to set up research stations for the jungle despite the warnings of the scouts who have ever entered the jungle. Deforestation began and Grix defended his territory. He quickly disposed of the research station scientists, forcing the yordles to abandon their stations and return to Bandle City. One mind stayed though. The inventor Heimerdinger traveled to the abandoned research sites and was able to revive one back to life, this time having a surprise for the reptilian creature. As Grix approached, a sudden boom of energy was released from the station causing Grix to become paralyzed and fall into a deep sleep. Many yordle brains traveled to the research center to see the beast, but perhaps one too many. When Grix awoke, he quickly escaped due to curious researchers and was forced to abandon the Plague Jungles in fear of being hunted down and captured again. He traveled the continent of Valoran for years until he found his way to the Summoner's Rift. He quickly took root in the jungle there and made it his new kingdom to rule. However, a deep magic soon soaked into him, causing him to slowly become more intelligent and even more deadly. The magic of a giant beast soon found it's way into the blood of Grix and he couldn't have been happier. The power he could feel in his bones was overwhelming. He could feel himself become stronger. As armies have begun to close in on all sides, Grix has become forced to defend his new home from these invaders, no matter the cost.
