Annie's Art section is amazing from a potential lore perspective.

Im a bit scared that she will become a random "girl that was born with magical powers, and she killed people because of her magical powers that she cant control" (syndra 0.2) instead of the daughter of powerfull wizzards.

difference is syndra could control her powers rather well... Enough to be able to lift an island.

she killed the man on her own decision, albiet clouded with rage.

Oh yeah definetly. I wanna see that lore put in to writing or a comic some day.

On a related note, the storyboard for Miss Fortune looked amazing. Would definetly love to see a "Lords of War" styled cinematic video series for League.

did they ever actually release that story board for MF before now? cause that would have made a great mini comic for her lore.

SharjoSep 2, 20161 votes

Nope, this is the first we're seeing of it, and much of the concept art here. I know some of it has been released publicly, especially the Summoner's Rift concept work, but a bunch is new to our eyes.

Honestly that surprises me. Hell, with minor tweaks that story board i could have mistaken for official stuff. It actually really well depict's MF's struggle to get where she is. Granted this was before burning tides was thought of and probably before she met Rafen lorewise but it leads up to about that point. Gives a great overview.

Its a bit different from the story we were told about her, visually speaking, but the overall core of the story is still portrayed in the storyboard images.

I really loved it. I didn't care about until you say but I really loved it. Wish we saw much more comics like this for other champions. Especially Shurima. I would like to see a comic about Shurima's Fall, or a comic which includes human Xerath and Azir.

More lore related media in general beyond the realms of text would be great, as exploring these different avenues allows for greater variation in the kind of stories put out and the manner in which they can be told.

And now because you've mentioned Shurima I'm back to conjuring up the visages of made up Ascended warriors of old.

I WANT MORE ASCENDED IN THIS GAME.

I love Ascended and Shurima is one of my favourite factions in LoL. I'm literally obsessed with Xerath. O.O

I want about Shurima more! Cinematic, comic, story etc. GIVE ME ALL. pls.

What I found interesting about it,was that the guy who killed MFs parents was someone completely new in that sketch. Now I'm interested if that was an actual character that they thought of,or if it was just a random stand-in for the time.

Or those pictures represents Miss Fortune's memory. So that's why we can't see face if it is not a mask. She had no idea about murderer's face (maybe it happened too quickly she couldn't see its face) until she achieves an information that make her realize it was Gangplank. In short, It is still Gangplank but she doesn't know it in this piece of art.

Or it is Gangplank with mask (but his moves are not something Gangplank would do I believe, it is more like Jhin. But it also has chance to be how MF remembers it).

Could you link me to the story board?

I had a minor chuckle when I saw this under GP's page.

So that's why Graves doesn't have a cigar. GP stole it!

FasmodeySep 2, 20162 votes

It explains her dark side.

I don't why but I love characters who got tortured, lost people that they love and pushed to madness. Xerath, Veigar and now Annie. It is one of my favourite themes for characters.

Just Make sure the Hastur child keeps her horror references because that is really what attracted her to me as my first ever main. I didn't spend 1584 games on her for NOTHING!
