Summarize the Lore of Your Favorite Champion. [Megathread?]

So if you're anything like me, you don't really bother to read the lore of a lot of champions because a lot of them are novels and 'aint nobody got time for that. But reading a one paragraph summary can clear things up and make it sooo much easier to get a better understanding of champions and their backstories because don't get me wrong, I'm interested in the lore, just not the time it takes to read it.

You can get these by

A) Reading the lore yourself B) Having read the lore before and just writing what you already know C) Look at another summary and write the key points in your own words. No plagiarism on my Christian boards! >:c

I'll start with my favorite champion, Talon.

Talon was this guy who lived the hood-life on the streets, where the only thigns he had going for him were being a master with blades and a great thief. The other Noxians weren't too fond of Talon stealing all their stuff so they sent many assassins to kill him, but he swiftly defeated them and left their bodies as his response to this. Then this cool guy named General Du Couteau (we'll call him GDC) came face-to-face with Talon while he was disarmed. Now GDC had Talon in a life or death situation with 2 choices: "Death at his hand, or life as an agent of the Noxian High Command". Talon chose to be an agent, but he would only serve GDC because he only wanted to serve the man he could not defeat. After years of carrying out secret missions for GDC, GDC dissapeared with no trace. Talon chose to try to track him down and find him rather than claiming freedom because of the immense respect he gained for him over the years.

That's probably around the max length you should make it unless it is a pretty long lore and has a lot of stuff to cover.

Also, you can do the same lore someone else did, if you can make it different enough to theirs that it is worth reading both of them rather than just one.

I hope we can get a lot of great variety and we all get a slightly better understanding of the game! :D

Pantheon Cool soldier dude gets possessed/killed by space asshole that literally no one likes or wants to exist. Urgot Bane, Jigsaw, and that giant mechanical spider at the end of Wild Wild West have a threesome, this is the result. XinZhao I don't know. He's some guy or something. The important thing is he has a Winged Hussar skin. Ornn What if Hephaestus was Ron Swanson? Trundle Member of diseased troll clan takes all sickness on himself. Only to be castigated and in turn let’s his clan die off. That’s his lore. Fight me.

Nami On the world's most obnoxious fetch quest to get a rock from a moon nerd.

Yorick He made himself a cape that just makes fun of him constantly. It was a bad idea.

Kayn using an analogy CoolRadius gave me, two enemies on a road trip to a destination where only one can fit in but only one person knows how to drive and the other knows the map in his head, both observe and study each other in awkward tension but don't dare assault one another otherwise they cant get to the destination but when they get there all hell breaks loose

Zed:

Orphan taken in by Kusho of the Kinkou Order, best in the class, hell, probably best in the whole goddamn school. Jhin comes in and fucks things up, Zed, Kusho, Shen go try to take him in. Four years passed, but I do not age and Zed gets fucked up in the head bc of Jhin's "art". When they finally catch him, Zed and Shen want Kusho to kill Jhin, but Kusho is like: "Nah fam" and throws the cuck in jail.

Zed starts learning forbidden shits and gets in trouble. Tilted and salty af, he says: "Fuck you I'm gone" and leaves. Starts up the Order as rivals to the KInkou, but not opposed, and the Noxus/Ionia war begins. Kusho refuses to help the war effort and Zed's like: "Fucking retarded low-elo cuck uninstall". Vastayans begin to talk with Noxus, and some continue to defend Ionia. Zed's like: "Deport the Vastayans! MIGA" and begins being hostile towards ALL Vastayans. The war is tough, so Zed returns to the Kinkou to get the rest of the magic, but Kusho is like: "no kys" and Zed says: "no u" and kills him and decimates the Kinkou, taking control of the temple.

Taric

He is the most powerful homosexual and will beat everyone straight.

Taric vowed to make the whole world gay and nothing will stop him.

The aspect will stop at nothing at his mission rainbow gay lgbt commies will take over damacia, noxus, runeterra etc everything.

He is top btw, not bottom like ezreal.

Taric is this light demigod bully that randomly forces men into gay sex to spread its message, but has been blessed with powers from targon, which is a gay god with the same agenda.

Jhin The Golden Demon is an infamous serial killer from the southern mountains of Ionia. Dancing for many years, these viscous displays left his victims carved into beautifully grotesque sculptures, their screams merely music to his ears. However, after 4 years of being hunted by Zed, Shen, and Master Kusho, Khada Jhin was captured at the Blossom Festival. his guise of a stagehand with Ionia's traveling operas discovered by his hunters. While the young Zed wanted nothing more than to slay him, Master Kusho spared the cowering Jhin and sent him to Tuula Prison, where he was held for many years. However, the Noxian invasion was occurring during his imprisonment. The Ionian government realized they needed a weapon of terror, and The Golden Demon seemed the perfect choice. Freeing him, they gave him unlimited funds and access to the armory's superior weaponry. Now with his gun, Whisper, a barrel his passes as a cane, and a massive Hextech Mass Accelerator mounted on his shoulder, he is now the Cabal's assassin, free to perform until Zed and Shen hunt him down. In the meantime, he has taken a boat to Zaun, but his movement are unknown from here.

But for people who don't like to read a lot.

Jhin 4! 4! 4! 4!

But your summary is larger than the current lore... Here is my summary of Talon:

-Orphan who kills people to survive and was adopted by someone who is important in Noxus, but his adoptive father disappeared and now he is looking for him.

Now my 2 champs:

-Insane Ascended Crocodile Alligator, who hates his stupid brother because an electric coffin told him to. Now he wanders Shurima looking for his dog brother to kill him.

-Insane Little Wizzard who is evil, but not really... and hates Teemo, because he blew up his plans in the old lore. Has a lot of dark evil magical powers. And steal balloons from little girls because he is THAT evil.

Shyvana Half dragon that was originally going to be full dragon but some wizard came around when she was still an egg and did some magical fuckery and she became half human. Mom didn't like this and wanted to kill her but dad said "fuck that, i want a divorce!" took Shyvana and booked it. Sometime later mom kills father and Shyvana basically becomes a half-dragon hobo for a while.

Finds Jarvan dying in the woods one day, decides to help him, citizens of Jarvan's country are like "ok" and don't really question her (for some reason even though they're fearful of magic and she was made because of magic). Mom finds her again, Shyvana kills her with some of Jarvan's help and pretty much stays around Demacia because...why not?

Gangplank "Yar har fiddle-dee-dee, being a pirate is alright with me!"

Favorite champion -

Yorick "The Sixth Sense kid becomes a monk, survives the Black Mist, winds up carrying it with him for... reasons."

Bard ,Morgana : Has barely any lore, but still love them. Thresh: Used to be a monk, like Yorick, but got corrupted by the metric butt-ton of dark artifacts (Such as Mordekaiser's actual skull) and turned into a psycho, and ultimately allowed the Ruined King to cause the Harrowing to occur, turning Thresh into a soul-collecting demon who also killed Senna, Lucian's wife.

  • Syndra Was too powerful so ionia sent her to a "school", she started feeling weak and understood that this is actually a prison so Syndra killed her teacher and then all of the power she lost was back so she lifted her prison to the air and made this her home so no one will try to restrain her again.
