My lore for,
malphite: Targon's Face
The Weapon that Recreate Runeterra
Long time ago, in the highlands of targon, there where this tribe called Runachasers this tribe knows everything about runeterra. Even its origin and every aspect of it. They even know how runes work or how they come up in runeterra. They even started the catastrophe of the first rune wars or maybe not. But the thing is, they created a powerful weapon. A weapon that they can use if their hometown or faction(Mt. Targon) is being invaded or being terrorize. Actually, they didn't even want to do it in the first place but the heavenly beings/celestials spoke to the oracle of the tribe that they must do it to prepare them selves from the future. So in order for them to do it, they must get/collect enough runes to use to make this weapon happen. Several months later, after getting enough runes, they begin the ceremony on creating this magical weapon but that paid a price. During the ceremony, a huge beam of light rush into the circle of runes creating a golem, a magical golem to be exact. As big as the second largest mountain in targon. The tribe was so shock but that didn't scared the shit out of them so they continued watching. After finnishing the majestic ceremony, the weapon begun to rise, not knowing what to do. The weapon begun to wreck chaos in the area causing mild earth quakes and anything catastrophic that you might imagine. The weapon's action is like a little toddler with tantrums. Half of the tribe were heavily injured, some died and even some unscratched but that havoc was not just caused in their area but in the whole runeterra as well; Reshaping the vast lands of runeterra. Then this lady came, the oracle of the tribe. She begun to sing a lullaby, a magical lullaby that can stop anybody from what they're doing. So the weapon begun mild until it behave like a little baby sleeping. The oracle spoke to the weapon, " Are you okay now my dear". The weapon replied in curiosity, " Yes, What is this place... I'am Afraid". The oracle spoke back motherly, "You don't need to be afraid, I'am here to protect you and guide you my child". The weapon replied in curiosity, " Who am I? What's my name?". " I'll call you Malphite, because you're rock solid and i like it ", the woman replied happily. Soon the woman thought Malphite all things that he should know about runeterra.
Years past, Malphite know all the things about targon and all about runeterra and it's origins. He became an archive of information bestowed that he can remember all the details that you thought it too. He also know what his origins are and how he was been able to be alive. He even know what his purpose is, by defending the nation of targon to treats or invaders. But then a tragedy started to happen, when malphite was guarding the east coast of targon, he saw 2 giant animals approaching the lands of targon while fighting in the shimmering sandy desert. Malphite was shock, he warned the people who lived there to evacuate immediately because the 2 were causing mass destruction. Unlikely for malphite, he her motherly oracle was in the foots of targon picking wild herbs to use for remedies whilst the oracle was old and her prediction was not as accurate as she was before so she didn't know what was happening. Malphite rushed to save her motherly oracle but was it was too late because this one giant animal create a big enigma that can drain your life essence whilst her motherly figure was caught in the circle. Malphite was destroyed in the inside knowing that her precious mother had died. He was ready to cause chaos but then he remembered his mother's words saying. "My dear, even if one day i might disappear in this world and knowing that no one will guide you. Just know that i will always be here by your side and if i might be gone too soon, please ensure the security of all the targonian people in this world. I love always my malphy". So malphite begun to chin up and wipe his precious tears. He flew to the too animal giants that were fighting. He got the two, one in each arm throwing them together in the northern hemisphere, away from targon.
After the incident, he insures the safety of MT. Targon always protecting its people until to this day so that any invaders doesn't set foot in the mountains of targon. Until, those creature attack, those purplish color creatures begun to attack the foots of mt. targon and now malphite knows what he should do to stop them.
Thanks for Mk2Chieftain for inspiring me to create a malphite lore.
Canon insight that i used is that it its connected to targon and i recon the rune wars story to this one.
rune wars story
> A thousand years ago, magical artifacts called ‘World Runes’ have been rediscovered. Over the following decades after such event, knowledge of the Runes began to spread as more were unearthed. The world’s brightest minds studied the ancient glyphs, attempting to determine the powers they possessed. Few could even begin to understand the importance of their origins, or the sheer power held within them. Some surmised that the Runes were integral to the creation of Runeterra itself. The first use of these mysterious artifacts proved catastrophic, as they reshaped the landscape of entire nations. Mistrust quickly grew as those who knew of the Runes imagined such “Makers’ Might” being used as a weapon. Conflicts later related to these magical artifacts were known as the Rune Wars.

PS: I'll create a TL;DR later and sorry if i didn't postit in the concept or creation thread because i used canon lore in my story
