League Lore: Homeless Champions

Soulkius··17 votes·3,577 views

Just how dangerous are the streets of Runeterra?

Fiddlesticks Is now free doing god knows what

Xerath With Shurima reformed where is this being of raw magic housing himself

Shaco What kind of den does this jester of murder escape to, or does he know no rest?

Renekton Is Renekton still lurking in the sewers of Zaun of does he roam the deserts, a random encounter of death to those who come across him?

Morgana Does this Fallen Angel only find solace in her cooking with the bond of the League retconned?

Kayle Is she perpetually distracted on her crusade against her sister in runeterra by the dark dealing and crimes that occur as happenstance? An unstoppable roaming thorn in the side to the twisted government of Noxus?

Chogath Is he still under the employ of the Void's prophet or does he act independently like Khazix roaming and feeding to fulfill his own mysterious goals?

Velkoz Craving knowledge as he does, where does this being find solace, a roaming hyper intellectual mass of tentacles cannot go without notice, does he find respite in dealing with those who crave a portion of his knowledge or does he blaze through the countryside, lasering anything he has yet seen, seeking to catalog all

Kassadin Does Kassadin have some kind of base of operation where he hold shelter to those who seek to defend against the horrors of the Void?

Varus Is Varus some kind of Anti-Noxian black knight, roaming all throughout Noxus killing goverment and military figures like some kind of hitman, before disappearing into the streets?

Nami How do the surface dwellers react to this mystical mer carrying an enormous pearl roaming across the land in search for the "moonstone" she so desires?

Diana Does Diana have some kind of "mooncave" where she plots and lurks, of how she can get vengeance against those "Sun praisers"?

Veigar Finally, does this small being of unrivaled dark energy have his own dark tower or place of twisted residence, or does he bunk with the only being whose power rivals his own Syndra ?

Edit: Additional Homeless

Brand Freed by the power of retcon, what is this possessed inferno of a man doing with his life, where does he find rest?

Ryze Imbued with near limitless forbidden magics, what is this mans origins does he even have a homeland, and where does he find rest?

Alistar With his league retconned in his escape plan, where is this denier of milking finding peace?

Nocturne Make that two nightmare entities doing god knows what.... So much for sweet dreams.

Yasuo Riven Can't believe I forgot about these two paragons of homelessness. Tent, gutter, tree just how do these two exiles get by

What speculation and headcanons do you have for all these "homeless" champions, I'd love to hear and develop what places these Champions find rest.

Current League homeless count: 13 -> 15 -> 17 -> 19

Bonus info: Whats with Noxus leaving only "one" person alive when they rape and pillage a place? Known solo survivors: Alistar & Varus Also the current count for champions who are in Noxus that have nothing better to do than kill Noxians is 3 Noxus Genociders: Varus Alistar Kayle

A bit of speculation.

Fiddlesticks has formed an unlikely friendship with Mordekaiser , Rengar , and Riven . They were last seen together on a yellow brick road looking for a wizard of some kind.

Xerath is the wizard. He will not help them.

Shaco has returned to his apartment with Nocturne. Both are wondering where Fiddlesticks is, since they need a third for Mario Kart.

Renekton has moved back in with Nasus, sleeping on his couch, eating his food, and stealing his dates.

Morgana still spends a lot of time baking and lives in her little bakery. She does part-time modeling and is especially well-known for her appearances in the Viktor's Secret catalog.

Kayle has become one of JarvanIV's main advisers in legal affairs as well as a high-ranking judge. She is now a contender in Demacia's annual 'Most Boring' contest.

Chogath has become a legendary monster in the Valoran Competitive Eating circuit, only bested by his new arch-enemy Gragas.

Velkoz has found a way to profit from his anatomical studies and now stars in some questionable comics involving young Ionian women, especially Irelia.

Kassadin is Piltover's resident Doomsday prophet, standing on street corners yelling that the Void is coming to consume us all.

Varus is directionless in life and has decided to seek archery lessons from Ashe.

Nami still seeks her Moonstone, living in a giant motorized fishbowl built by Heimerdinger.

Diana has become something of a fashion icon among teenage Noxians and has even caught the eye of the elusive Vladimir, despite her repeated insistence she is not a vampire just because she's a pale woman who hates the sun and only comes out at night.

Veigar spends his time plotting, scheming, reading, talking with Lulu, and tearing up the dance floors of Piltover and Zaun as Valoran's premiere DJ, dropping the bass like Dark Matter. His new 'dubstep' sound has led many to claim he is Valoran's most diabolical villain.

Brand is in hiding, trying to avoid his crazy ex-girlfriend Lissandra.

Ryze, fresh out of his stay in Rune Prison, is back living the Thug Lyfe on the mean streets of downtown Noxus.

As Far as I know FiddleFiddlesticks randomly appears in people's yards, leaving a that it has always been there. He preys and waits for that unsuspecting moment.

ShacoShaco taunt's people before he kills them. Now has been identified as a person who has had too much meth.

With the IoW's disappearance, MorganaMorgana has found ways to get money elsewhere. She now lurks on corners at night approaching people saying 2.95 a min.

KayleKayle working as an unsuspecting officer, telling people she is searching for her sister.

Cho'gathChogath now terrorizes villages in the plains. Reports have claim to see an insect like creature trying to persuade people to come to the dark side.

Someone stepped on a weird purple insect, said to be known as** khazix**Khazix . He was thrown in the dump shortly. Yordle scientist are wondering if this is a new type of insect/pest in Runeterra.

A man deemed crazy has came running to demacia gates claiming to be chased by a one eyed monster. But due to his age, people sent him to a elderly home. He now mutters "VelkozVelkoz " every now and then

Piltover had it's lates Comic Con. Although a man who calls him self kassadinKassadin seem to have taking a liking in his custom darth vader armor. He runs around piltover warning people about the "oblivion"

Local authorities are looking for a purple skinned man, known as varus.Varus He is believe to have killed 5 kind unsuspecting Noxians Visiting Ionia.

A fisherman has completely lost it. He keeps urging people to come to the lake at night, claiming tosee a mermaid. He add's that the voices wont stop talking in his head. He claims that if we don't kill the thing, a being named **nami **Nami will come to get him.

A woman was arrested last night. A woman known as DianaDiana . She was said to kill a couple who had matching shirts on with the writing "love the sun" on them. She will now be sent to a Noxian unisex Prison. God knows what will happen to her there.

In bandle city, news of the local fool has just came in! After many fail attempts to rob citizens of bandle city, the fool has apparently pants Meglings commando's officer tristana. After running around the city for ten minutes, he finally got his just desserts . He was blast far into the forest screaming"Stop laughing!! I am evil!Veigar

Sounds like a lot has happened since the IoW Randomly disappear from Runeterra

Edit: Additional News A man who walks the streets shirtless, claims to be a being of fire. Threatens everyone he will be the one who sets the world on fire. He has been sent to an asylum. Nowadays, he keeps yelling "I am brandBrand , the destroyer" in his room.

Another man was seen shirtless with a weird skin condition. "The purple man"Ryze as they call him, is a self proclaimed "wizard" and goes about "zapping" people he don't like. People have got fed up of trash being thrown at them, so he was also locked up. The last person who reported him was given a scary threat. " I am Ryze, and im coming to get ya when I get out" It was reported he had taken a large amount of bath salt the past few weeks.

You may have missed some :o Alistar - Teaches people how to milk cows, the proper way.

Gnar - Divides his time as an anger management counselor and daycare host.

Nocturne - Becomes a comedian known for his "Knock, knock" jokes.

KogMaw - Becomes mascot for Insaniquarium, "Feed me!"

Zilean - <Something witty related to Time would go here>

Soulkius2 votes

Oh yeah Alistar escaped to the league from Noxus, looks like we have another Noxus hater roaming their streets....

Gnar Is wrapped up in the circle of life in the plague jungle, where Nidalee Rengar Khazix all try and fail to perpetually kill each other

Nocturne Guess that makes two nightmare entities doing god knows what

KogMaw Malzahar is quite literally keeping him as a pet feeding the non-believers to him

Zilean With the League gone he should be eternally tripping out in his time tower

Zilean gets a blue box thats bigger on the inside...

I like to think Viegar lives in an abandoned Noxian outpost somewhere in the mountains north of Bandle City. Noxus aggression suggests they may have tried to conquer other city-states in the past, and fortifications along major roads are necessary for maintaining a reliable flow of supplies.

Noxus aesthetics favor spikes, skulls, and other dark elements, which would satisfy Veigar's twisted needs. That a forsaken watchtower or fortress would also be in a state of ruin might enhance its appeal to him, appearing foreboding. In addition, what would be small for a human is rather large for a yordle; a pitiful watchtower to us is a massive lair to them.

That makes a lot of sense, certainly some excellent research and insight.

I more firmly believe Veigar's lair is in the Sablestone Mountains on the eastern end next to the sea. Look at the map to see where I mean: http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100821100306/leagueoflegends/images/c/cd/MapofValoran.jpg

Veigar chose that location because he remains inexplicably drawn to his homeland, plus it has a nice ocean view.

A Superb Villain1 votes

I only suggest north of Bandle City as it is geographically closer to Noxus, and if they ever expanded south, their fortifications would be there. Veigar is powerful, but he does not strike me as someone terribly constructive, leading to my assumption that if he has a lair, it was discovered, not built. Noxus' heavy emphasis on semi-gothic architecture with a fantasy spin, in my mind, appeals to Veigar's obsession with overtly evil aesthetics, hence the absurd number of spikes included on his wardrobe.

Then again, who knows what Valoran looks like now.

The Red Warden3 votes

Also two more

Jax, the escaped mental patient has escaped once again to challenge everyone he sees so as to prove he is the greatest post man there ever was

Hecarim is still randomly running around Runaterra for some reason inspiring a mostly male cult of followers. They call themselves "bro"arims

I'm pretty sure Morgana has a bakery in Noxus and in a few more places. For the rest... don't know.

Morgana lost her bakery but now has a food cart.

But I think everyone would prefer Morgana keep Sinful Succulence, if only for her street cred.

According to Rivini, Veigar and Lulu hang out together across Valoran

Fiddlesticks needs to find someone else to torment to get his powers, I guess... but surely his pal Shaco will help him find a victim, and after that they might take over said victim's house

Renekton is now Xerath 's ally, and seeks to aid him and tear the world asunder after being driven mad from his imprisonment with the latter, wherever Xer is hiding, Renekton is probably with him, craving for the moment when he will put an end to Shurima's legacy.

Morgana is waiting for the right moment to face off Kayle in the last battle between them, and while waiting, she prepares cookies in Noxus, either as a hobbie or to summon a legion of innocent folks who ate her dangerous cookies and are no longer the owners of their minds. Kayle , however, just seeks to find her sister and bring her to justice, never resting until she finds her.

Chogath has joined the Evolution, submitted to Viktor 's designs, just like Velkoz, although Vel is still trying to gather as much knowledge as he can, because you can see in his Battlecast taunt that he is still interested in Zilean

Kassadin Was a human before getting Void'd, so I guess he had a life before that, and a house as well. I am sure that if a Voidling dared to go after him, Kass would feel more than happy to put an end to it. The Void has better things to do than to go after a puny human, even if he survived the Void.

Noxus is a dodgy place, I am sure Varus would easily dash through the roofs and streets after killing Noxian officers 1 by 1

Many men would delight in helping a lovely lass like Nami to get around Valoran, although she would probably not understand why (fish innocence, you know?)

Diana probably sleeps under the moonlight, enlightened and protected by the only thing that remained with her when all else turned its back against her, be that place a cave, a mountain or another moon temple.

Brand Can probably only rest by doing what he pleases the most: avenging himself. Maybe meditating in burnt forests or destroyed landscapes, or even burning buildings to the ground. Or maybe he is on the hunt for Anivia and Lissandra

Ryze He is in Rune Prison.

Alistar Alistar probably followed XinZhao to Demacia and now seeks to bring the fight to Noxus.

Nocturne Now warps from mind to mind during the night, wrecking havoc in everyone's dreams, where he is at his strongest.

According to Rivini, Veigar and Lulu hang out together across Valoran

That was for a story arc. It's not something they do regularly.

On the subject of Lulu, since she originally was kicked out of Bandle City and went to the League, I have a more plausible lore for what happened to her.

With the yordles wary of Lulu and her newfound magic, they wanted her gone for the safety of the city and children. Having lost her home and everyone she once knew, Lulu had nowhere to go and no one to turn to.
Tristana, possessing the big heart she has, stepped forward and offered a compromise. Lulu could be allowed to stay if she agreed to never use her magic in the city or use it with the children while playing in the woods, and she must reside in a small house away from the others. The elders were reluctant at first, but decided to give her a chance. Tristana promised to visit her as much as possible, knowing it's important for yordles to socialize.

That's the basic version of what I had before in my fanfiction, with the part about the Institute changed since that won't be around anymore. The only alternative I can think of is her building a small house on the outskirts of Bandle City and that's it. It could work just the same.

OMG you live! I am a huge fan but EUWestness forbid me from telling you!

Diana x Me1 votes

These are mean. Lol. Although funny in their own way.

Diana still lives on Mt Targon in a Lunari temple hidden away in a valley. The one she found all the relics in.

I'm being serious.

If that gets retconned then she can live with me in my lonely apartment <(♡.♡)> In my more than head canon IOW.

Nami found a home in the local aquarium, the workers pay her a nice sum of gold to just swim around and act natural all day. anyone who taps on the glass gets bubbled and a tidal waved out the door.

Riven is out on the streets, too. Probably moping in a gutter in Ionia as her country strays further and further away from her ideal vision.

Now I want to see a Batman skin for Diana, complete with Moonmobile, Moonwing, and Moonboat. There should be a Moonsignal appearing in the sky, and she'll be perched on top of something scanning the horizon like a vulture.
