- Lore
Common folklore said that, moments before someone dies, he would feel an ominous presence that would send chills through-out his body. Before drawing his dying breath, he would see a dark silhouette staring at him with red emotionless eyes. He would see a Death Reaper who would have come to collect his soul and lead it to the Realm of the Dead. Of-course that would only be a folklore, shared at the taverns between drunk men or between soldiers. Up until that moment.
It's night and the sailors have gathered in the taverns of a port-city at Bilgewater. The fires of the candles start to tremble and the wooden walls of the taverns start to creak. Then silence falls. "The Black Mist is here", the scream echoes through the silence and everyone rushes outside. The black wall had already reached the port and the undead started sweeping through everything and everyone. Captain Gangplank is rushing to the docks from inside the city, followed by many of his men. As they are running, they notice a figure standing on top of a building, holding a giant scythe with each right hand. It stares at the onslaught in the docks. The dark figure turns its head and looks at them. Its red eyes send chills down their spines. They can only think of death. Their own death. The figure stays still and, yet, in the blink of the eye it appears in front of them. The men cant move as the figure stands in front of them, it's stare is cold and overbearing. It may be seconds till they first saw the figure, but it seems like years. Staying still, the figure speaks with a cold ominous voice "Leave. Your time has not come yet. Undead are not something for mortal men to mess with. They are my job. Its time for them to rest". Again, in the blink of the eye, the figure appears far away from them, until it disappeared into the black mist.
The sounds of swords and shields clashing stops. The torn armors shine red as the sun sets. The young noble lays on the ground fatally wounded. Dark figures with giant scythes silently walk around him. One of them approaches him. He is afraid. But as the figure stands next to him he feels peaceful. The last rays of the sun light the figure's face. She is a young woman, with pale skin and red eyes. The words barely come out from his mouth "Who are you?". The woman smiles and then speaks with a cold, yet, soothing voice "I'm Kira, an angel of death. I've come to bring you peace.". The man speaks with a trembling voice "Please spare me. Im still very young. I'm rich. I can give you everything you want. Please spare me.". The woman's smile disappears as she speaks again "There is no difference between poor and rich in death's eyes. Your gold and your riches cant save you. You should rest now.". The sound of metal breaking echoes one last time in the battlefield as the giant scythe falls.
The men in the taverns are speaking of black figures with giant scythes silently watching over human's battles. They are barely visible but everyoen can feel them.
Death Reapers always existed in Runeterra. Able to pass unseen from mortals, their job was to escort the dead to the Realm of the Dead and bring rest to those claimed by undeath. With wars and battles always increasing and more people at the death's door, they are becoming more and more visible to humans. Kira is one of their Commanders, tasked to bring death to those who should have died.
- Personality
As someone who's lived for thousands of years and tasked with bringing death to those that are in near-death-state or those who wrongfully elude it, she has a cold and serious personality. She shows no mercy for those who embrace undeath or try to cheat death. Bribes and pleads dont faze her at all. She has a job to do and nothing can stop her from claiming her prey. On the other hand, she shows a softer and kinder side to those who have accepted their fate. She is, also, fair to those whose time has not come yet.
- Appearance
Kira is tall, with red eyes and long red hair. Her skin is pale. She wears torn black clothes that cover most of her body, a torn black cape and knee-high black boots. She wields a big scythe with black hilt and red blade.
