2 champ concepts I intended to send alongside a CV to Riot - figured I might post them here as well

I know the kit descriptions might seem slightly too big - but its a concept/draft version; better to have the information explained and understood at this stage - the essential skill info can be narrowed down without a problem.

I didn't want to post 4 pictures (isn't effective either) so I made a small PDF (actually, its part of the original CV) : link!

As noted inside the PDF - the models of the champs are not mine - i just found them on deviantart while looking for inspiration and thought it might help to have a visual image of the champion as well.

For those of you interested in the rest of the CV - it is here : link!

They seem to be heavily influenced by futuristic shooters like Destiny, COD:AW, or HALO...

Well the image models might hint that way - but that's not where the influence came from.

There was a post on reddit wondering about a soldier-type champ with a knife so i figured why not have a gun/knife "grunt" type soldier champion. Since Lucian had a "futuristic" gun and was from Demacia - I figured having a secret Demacian order/King's elite would make sense.

Illumina is the counter to Viktor's background story - someone who didn't fall into darkness through technology/ego and rather found wisdom/enlightenment. Her kit simply follows this "growth" style (something like Syndra) and enlightenment/clairvoyance approach.

So, the champs were actually born on a background-story basis.
