Nidalee is a ranged-DPS/support champion who can morph into a melee fighter-type cougar with bonus defensive stats and movement speed when she casts her ultimate. As a human, she has a long ranged spear throw that gets stronger the further the spear flies, traps that damage and weaken enemies, and a healing spell that also increases attack speed. As a cougar, she can pounce to deal damage where she lands, slash enemies to deal bonus damage that gets stronger the weaker her target is, and slash in an area around her. In both forms she moves faster when she travels through brush.

Lux is a supportive mage-type champion. She can bind up to two enemies in a line, throw her wand like a boomerang to apply a damage shield to herself and allies both ways, create a slowing vortex of light that can be detonated for damage, and fire a rainbow laser with huge range. Her passive is almost identical to Leona's: any of her damaging spells applies an Illumination charge, which can be set off by an attack or her laser to deal additional damage. The difference is that Leona's Sunlight mark has to be set off by an ally, whereas Lux can set off her own. (Incidentally, the two of them work ''really'' well together.)

!![=LeBlanc=] the Deceiver
->''"The world is very different for those who cannot see beyond what is placed before their very eyes."''
Evaine [=LeBlanc=] is an evil, manipulative, aristocratic sorceress of illusion. She is the head of the Black Rose, an entire society of ageless illusionists who acted as the evil chancellors behind the Noxian throne until the monarchy was destroyed. She has joined the League to bring the new global authority under the Black Rose's heel.
[=LeBlanc=] is a mage-type assassin champion. She can shoot a magic missile that deals magic damage and will explode and silence the debuffed enemies if [=LeBlanc=] hits them with another spell, teleport back and forth from two spots at will, shackle enemies with magic that locks them in place if the bond isn't broken, and her ultimate is to repeat one of her other spells with more damage. Her passive ability allows her to become invisible for a brief interim when her life becomes too low, reappearing with a dummy made of illusions to confuse foes and help her escape.
[=LeBlanc's=] skins include [[Disney/OneHundredAndOneDalmatians Wicked LeBlanc]], [[SexySantaDress Mistletoe LeBlanc]] and [[TheDCU Prestigious LeBlanc]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AncientConspiracy
* AristocratsAreEvil
* CrutchCharacter: Terrifying for the first two-thirds of the game, then falls off HARD if she isn't fed - though a good early game for her almost ''invariably'' means some other poor sucker is going to be miles behind on the resource curve, and falling off much harder and sooner.
* DarkChick
* EvilChancellor
* GlassCannon
* ImpliedLoveInterest: Swain.
* LadyOfBlackMagic
* LegacyCharacter: [[EpilepticTrees Possibly.]]
* MasterOfIllusion
* NinjaLog
* OlderThanTheyLook: Her title is the Deciever, and her organization deals with illusions. Since she's as old as the ageless lord of Noxus, Boram Darkwill, this would make her EXTREMELY old.
** Or [[EpilepticTrees maybe not,]] as her Judgement implies that [=LeBlanc=] is the honorary title of the Order of the Black Rose, [[LegacyCharacter passed down from each matron to her sucessor, together with an illusion that makes them all share the same appearance]]. "Emilia [=LeBlanc's=]" REAL name is actually Evaine. Alternatively there may even be elements of GrandTheftMe involved.
* SexySantaDress: Mistletoe Leblanc combines this with a Grade A ZettaiRyouiki.
* {{Stripperiffic}}
* TeleportSpam
* TooManyBelts: She wears [[http://image.uuu9.com/pcgame/lol//UploadFiles//201101/201101291616048121.jpg three around her thighs and a few around her arms]] -- despite [[{{Stripperiffic}} not wearing any pants]].

!!Lee Sin the Blind Monk
->''"The actions of one may sunder the world, but the diligence of many may rebuild it."''
A blind martial artist from Ionia. Formerly a magician prodigy in training at the League, Lee Sin's future as a summoner came to an abrupt end when his arrogance led to his accidentally disintegrating an entire village on his first attempt. After his departure, he subsequently joined the Shojin Monastery vowing never to use magic again. Years later Lee Sin burned himself in protest over the Noxian-Ionian disputes, [[RedemptionEqualsDeath hoping to achieve atonement in martyrdom]]. Despite this he survived the ordeal, losing his eyes from the burns but regaining his will to live. To make a difference in Valoran's affairs Lee Sin rejoined the League, this time as a champion on the Fields of Justice.
Lee Sin was a champion in-production but canceled due to his design not being seen fantastic enough -- however he was featured in early trailers for the game. [[WildMassGuessing There were rumors of him being put back into development, however, especially since champion design has gotten less fantastic as of mid-2010.]] In late March 2011 he was announced once more, with a new model and skillset (although his original model is available for purchase as a skin).
Lee Sin is a fighter-type champion with an Energy Meter instead of a ManaMeter (the first beyond the three ninjas) and a strong theme of duality and combo-oriented fighting in his abilities. After using any of his three basic skills, he may choose to perform a secondary follow-up; he can combine damaging waves of sound with a charging attack, allied damage interception with a lifestealing self-buff, and a location-revealing gale with a crippling slow. Lee Sin's passive grants him a short burst of attack speed and energy restoration after using an ability, and his ultimate is a roundhouse kick that sends an opponent flying backwards (and through obstacles), and in turn disables enemies caught in the victim's path.
Lee Sin's alternate skins include Acolyte Lee Sin, [[BruceLee Traditional Lee Sin]] and [[JackieChan Dragon Fist Lee Sin]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AprilFoolsDay: Announced just before the patch closest to April 1st; between the screenshots of specially-made models and visuals but his champion spotlight throwing all seriousness out the window, fans were on tenterhooks. But it turned out Riot actually did release him.
* TheAtoner
* BaldOfAwesome
** BlindingBangs: In his old design and his Traditional Lee Sin skin.
* BarefistedMonk
* BrotherChuck: He was announced/modeled during beta and early movies but did not show up in the game until nearly 3 years after his initial appearance.
* BruceLeeClone
* CrutchCharacter: Is absolutely terrifying early and mid game, but if he doesn't get fed, he doesn't do so well in a teamfight situation (unless, of course, you put that roundhouse kick in the right place...)
* DemotedToExtra: For tournaments before his official release, his character model was used so that another person could spectate in the game.
* {{Determinator}}: The man set himself on fire lasting two freakin months. He survived.
* DisabilityImmunity: His passive in-production and in his April Fools announcement was, logically, the inability to be blinded. Thankfully averted because you'll almost ''never'' run into blind.
* DisabilitySuperpower
* {{Expy}}: Lee Sin is visually very similar to [[FinalFantasyIV Yang Fang Leiden]] (the latter can be seen as the picture for the BareFistedMonk page).
* EyeScream
* FlashStep: He has two skills that allow him to blink to friendly or enemy targets.
* {{Foil}}: To Udyr, a fellow martial artist. Lee Sin is calm, composed and well-groomed. Udyr is a raging wildman with shaggy hair, dresses in bearskins, and who looks like he hasn't bathed in weeks.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[WildMassGuessing A Journal of Justice entry]] mentioned a monk protesting the Noxian occupation of Ionia by burning himself. When Ionia was freed, he stopped and was rushed off to be treated, with the text specifically mentioning his eyes were ruined...
** And now [[http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=605612 confirmed]] to be one and the same.
* TheGhost: Before his official introduction, he got a lot of indirect references in the Lore, but did not make a direct appearence for months.
* ImprobableHairstyle: Has a braided topknot that's long enough that he wraps it around his neck two or so times.
* InspiredBy: His self-immolation in protest to a major conflict was clearly shaped by [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Th%C3%ADch_Qu%E1%BA%A3ng_%C4%90%E1%BB%A9c another monk]], over TheVietnamWar.
* JapaneseRanguage: Several times you can hear stereotypical L and R switching.
--> "Brindness is no impairment against a smelly enemy."
* {{Jossed}}: Popular fan theory that he's been remade into another, already released champion.
* KiAttacks
** KamehameHadoken
* LightningBruiser: To the point where he can 1v1 Jax, which for most others would be suicide.
* MeditatingUnderAWaterfall: In [[http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/attachment.php?attachmentid=140463&d=1301011184 his 'Classic' splash art]].
* MyGreatestFailure: Lee Sin was once a very talented summoner... but he felt he was held back by being taught at the same pace as everyone else, and tried his hand at summoning a creature from a foreign jungle. It didn't work, and the spell summoned a human boy... ''who fell apart'', and the boy's entire village was found to have been accidently killed by feedback from the spell. While the League was willing overlook the grave error due to Lee Sin's sheer talent, he left the Institute of War and joined the [[FictionalCounterpart Shojin Monastery]], swearing off magic.
* MysteriousWatcher
* MythologyGag: His Traditional Lee Sin skin looks like his first design while the game was still in production.
* RapunzelHair: Lee Sin is bald aside from a braid using hair from the center of the top of his head, which is so long he wraps it around his neck.
* ShockwaveStomp
* SignificantAnagram: Lee Sin can see nil.
** PunnyName: How does he find you? He can't see, so he "Lee Sins" for you.
* SuperSenses
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: He was one of the first champions designed and was in DevelopmentHell until 2011 when he was finally released.
* ZenSurvivor: Well, duh. A pretty big part of his characterization is that, [[TruthInTelevision like any good Zen teacher]], talking to him while expecting a straightforward answer will prove completely infuriating. In his League Judgment, he wound up talking rhetorical circles around the summoner who was supposed to judge ''him''.
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/LeonaSquare_4862.png]]
!!Leona the Radiant Dawn
->''"The sun’s rays reach all of Runeterra, so too must the image of its champion."''
A young woman raised by a warrior society trained to revel in violence but instead rejected their war-mongering ways and their rite of passage that required two teenage members of the tribe to fight to the death. Her planned execution was called off when she was revealed to posses the divine powers of the sun and indoctrinated into a society of enlightened warrior priests known as the Solari.
Leona is a tank-type champion who can stun enemies with her shield, create an explosive solar forcefield around herself, dash to enemies she pierces with her sword, and bring down a mighty solar blast in an area that stuns enemies in the center and slows them at the edge. Her passive puts a mark on enemies hit by her abilities that deals extra damage when they're attacked by one of her allies.
Leona's alternate skins include Defender Leona, [[{{Valkyries}} Valkyrie Leona]] and Iron Solari Leona.
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AffirmativeActionGirl: Specifically designed to answer the fanbase's complaints that there were no female tanks.
* AuthorAppeal: [[http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?p=18556007#18556007 Her concept artist IronStylus heavily based Leona off his wife.]]
* {{BFS}}: It's got to be at least four feet long, held with one hand!
* ChildhoodFriends: With Pantheon.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: Shown in her judgement -- she was unable to stand by while others were bullied, and is internally unable to forgive herself for the many she couldn't save from the Kor, causing her to join the League of Legends to go more good to make up for that.
* TheChosenOne
* CombatStilettos: Despite her both being a tank and hailing from a particularly treacherous mountain range - [[MST3KMantra stranger costume choices have been seen, though.]]
* DefectorFromDecadence: Of sorts -- she does not abide the disregard for life in the Rakkor, but understands the logic of it since she knows their food stores are constantly strained.
* DeflectorShields: Appears around her for her Eclipse ability.
* DeliberateValuesDissonance: Despite disliking the Rakkor's brutality and the fact one of the teenagers in every Kor ritual is supposed to be killed, she does not begrudge the logic -- her people are stated to have a strained food supply.
* FieryRedhead: Though a bit unclear with her portrait's lighting, she's clearly a redhead in-game.
* HeyItsThatVoice: [[CowboyBebop Faye]] seems to have put on some clothes for once, or perhaps [[SoulSeries Xianghua]] got tired of having to block with her sword.
* HolyHandGrenade
* HotChickWithASword
* IBrokeANail: Parodied with her joke, in which she removes her left gauntlet to say:
--> ''Think I broke a nail. Good thing it wasn't mine.''
* KillSat: Her ultimate, Solar Flare.
* KnightInShiningArmor: Female example!
* LadyOfWar: Hell, her dance basically looks like it's a martial drill.
* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: She backs behind her shield while her Eclipse's effect is active. Her taunt lampshades her use of it, complete with her tapping her shield with her right fist.
--> ''Next time, try to leave a dent!''
* TheMessiah: To the Solari religious order, with her powers having never been seen since the founder of their order.
* MartialPacifist: Refused to fight to the death in a traditional coming-of-age ceremony because she believed that might should only be used to protect others.
* MsFanservice: Averted, since mostly all the female characters in this game are MsFanservice (and {{Glass Cannon}}s/{{Fragile Speedster}}s) by default, Leona was specifically created to fulfill a request for an inversion.
** There is no aversion for her Valkyrie skin though - it covers a whole lot less than her normal skin.
*** Standing in a bush in her Valkyrie skin makes her skirt see-through, and you can see her panties.
* ThePaladin
* TheParagon
* ThePowerOfTheSun
* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: Although she is a member of such a race, she doesn't share their zeal for battle - she only wants to protect others.
* ShieldBash: Her Shield of Daybreak ability does this, stunning the target hit. Her critical strike hit is one as well.
* ShoutOut: You'll take one look at her Valkyrie skin and expect her ult to turn into [[ValkyrieProfile Nibelung Valest]].
* StoneWall: One of the best examples in the game -- unlike the other tanks, who usually either have an ability that deals semi-decent damage or a passive that gives them some offensive perk (like Rammus), all of Leona's abilities are focused around disabling and soaking damage and have incredibly low base damage and awful scaling. Her Sunlight passive can be quite powerful, but it requires an ally to proc it, further emphasizing her intended role as this trope.
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Lulu_Square_0_1516.png]]
!!Lulu the Fae Sorceress
->''"The best path between two points is upside-down, between, then inside-out and round again."''
A young Yordle girl with a boundless imagination who befriended a fae sprite by the name of Pix. She followed Pix to the hidden land of the fae where she learned from their chaotic magic. However, upon leaving, she discovered that centuries had passed in the outside world. Finding herself distanced from everyone who lived normal lives, Lulu turned to the one place where the strange and unique are celebrated: the League of Legends.
Lulu is a support-type champion who excels at buffing allies and disabling enemies with her quirky spells. Her fae friend Pix shoots bursts of energy that go along with her basic attacks. She can fire a slowing beam of magic from both her and Pix, cast a spell that either speeds up an ally and boosts their ability power or transforms an enemy into a harmless critter, send Pix to shield an ally or harass an enemy, and use her ultimate to increase an ally's size, giving them a large HP boost and a slowing aura in the process.
Lulu's alternate skins include [[CrapsaccharineWorld Bittersweet Lulu]] and [[DarkMagicalGirl Wicked Lulu]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AdultFear: When she first returned from the fae world, she attempted to reconnect with people by luring children into the woods to play games with her, often turning them into flowers or animals with her magic. The children's parents were less than pleased.
* BalefulPolymorph: Her Whimsy spell transforms an enemy champion into a cute little squirrel (changed to a cupcake and a kitten for her other skins).
* CloudCuckooLander
* CuteWitch: She's the first Yordle in the style of Poppy or Tristana in a while, and she's adorable.
* [[EverythingsBetterWithSparkles Everything's Better With Sparkles]]: Glitterlance
* FairyCompanion: Pix
* MakeMyMonsterGrow: Her ult does this with your ''allies''.
* [[MrImagination Miss Imagination]]
* NiceHat: It's enormous.
* OurFairiesAreDifferent
* RapunzelHair: Well, for a yordle.
* RipVanWinkle: While she visited the world of the fae, centuries passed by in the outside world.
* SquishyWizard
* StatusBuff: Whimsy (when cast on an ally) and Wild Growth.
* TastesLikePurple: She quotes the trope verbatim. Several of her lines follow similarly random logic.
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/LuxSquare_4670.png]]
!!Lux the Lady of Luminosity
->''"Her guiding light makes enemies weary, but they should worry most when the light fades."''
-->-- '''Garen'''
Garen's younger sister, Luxanna "Lux" Crownguard was taken from her home to serve in the Demacian military at the age of 13. A magical prodigy with command over the powers of light, Lux has served her nation well even before joining the League, conducting infiltration missions into Noxus territory to steal their secrets; it was on one such mission that she stole the secret of the Dark Binding spell from Noxus' ally Morgana the Fallen Angel and repurposed it for her own ends.
Lux is a supportive mage-type champion. She can bind up to two enemies in a line, throw her wand like a boomerang to apply a damage shield to herself and allies both ways, create a slowing vortex of light that can be detonated for damage, and fire a rainbow laser with huge range. Her passive is almost identical to Leona's: any of her damaging spells applies an Illumination charge, which can be set off by an attack or her laser to deal additional damage. The difference is that Leona's Sunlight mark has to be set off by an ally, whereas Lux can set off her own. (Incidentally, the two of them work ''really'' well together.)
Lux's alternate skins include Spellthief Lux, [[CuteWitch Sorceress Lux]], Commando Lux and [[TheEmpire Imperial Lux]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AddedAlliterativeAppeal
* AnnoyingLaugh: Spam /l in chat while playing as her. Or don't, you'll probably regret that.
* BadassAdorable: She is a prodigiously powerful magician who acts and sounds like an innocent teenager ([[ChildSoldiers ...in the military]]).
* BadassBookworm: Is well-educated in her background and proves it in-game with a joke line in which she ([[MotorMouth quickly]]) explains a double rainbow, as well as being a very talented student in magic to the point of being considered a prodigy.
* BareYourMidriff: Her Sorceress skin. This was also part of her original character design, but after it received considerable derision from the fanbase she was redesigned.
* BlueEyes: And she definitely sounds pretty damn innocent.
* ChildSoldiers: [[spoiler:An example of [[LightIsNotGood the dark side of Demacia]]; while she is famous for being the youngest solder in the Demacian army, it isn't widely known that she didn't volunteer to join -- her parents decided to give her to the Demacian military, requiring her to be dragged out of her home in tears.]]
* DifficultButAwesome: Much like Ezreal, all her abilities have to be manually aimed. In particular, Light Binding and Prismatic Barrier are incredibly potent if you can land them just right.
** Her passive, which applies a debuff when an enemy is hit with Lux's spells and can be detonated with Lux's basic attack, is particularly difficult to master. Most casters don't usually auto-attack mid-combo, so this is counter-intuitive for most. [[OhCrap It stacks with Lich Bane procs (which do the same thing), and Lux's ult can blow it up as well. This can add 600-1000 damage to the combo.]]
* ExactlyWhatIAimedAt: Her ultimate has an outrageous maximum range, travels through walls and, barring her initial channel, hits instantly. So before you yell at her for missing the enemy right in the middle of a team fight, make sure she didn't just nail the support who just flashed to (apparent) safety.
* {{Expy}}: [[JustifiedTrope Her Light Binding ability was stolen from Morgana's own Dark Binding ability]].
* GameplayAndStorySegregation: According to her background, she can manipulate light to make herself invisible. She can do nothing of the sort in the game.
** Her original design included a spell that could stealth allied units, but it turned out to be so difficult to balance that it was replaced with a simpler shield spell.
* GratuitousGerman: Her ultimate, Finales Funkeln is German for "Final Sparkle."
** Or, as has been pointed out on the forums, "[[DragonBallZ Final Flash]]."
** A big laser called Final '''Spark'''le? [[TouhouProject Hmmm...]]
* InTheNameOfTheMoon: See ShoutOut.
* KamehameHadouken: Her ultimate certainly tips its hat to this trope with her animation of casting it pointing her palms in the direction she's firing (but while holding her staff in both hands). If you watch the animation closely, for a short time she floats and her ''legs'' point in the direction she's firing as well!
* LaserSight: Just before you know you're about to die from final flash. Incidentally, the warning line is much narrower than the actual attack.
* LightIsGood
* LightTheWay: She even says it almost verbatim.
* LongLostRelative: [[spoiler:Of sorts -- she knows who Garen is and what he does, but her League Judgement implies she never seen or spoke to him after enlisting in the Demacian military (or possibly even ever) aside from League broadcasts. In the judgement, she feels the urge to call out to the illusion of Garen.]]
* MagicalGirl: She was created by Japanese designer Shurelia to specifically reflect this archetype.
* MeaningfulName: 'Lux' is 'light' in Latin. It is also a unit used in measuring the brightness and intensity of light.
* MotorMouth: A mild but noticeable example in her in-game lines, especially in one of her joke lines when she explains a double rainbow.
* [[spoiler:ParentalAbandonment: Lux's parents casually gave her over to the Demacian military to serve the state at the age of 13, without showing the slightest signs of regret or reluctance.]]
* [[SensibleHeroesSkimpyVillains Sensible Heroine]]
* ShoutOut: All over the place.

** She also has several references to {{Touhou}}'s Marisa Kirisame, with her ultimate being a play on Marisa's Final Master Spark. Furthermore, Marisa is known to steal other people's spells and refers to herself as just an "ordinary witch." Makes sense, as Shurelia is a big Touhou junkie.
* SquishyWizard: Yes, she has a shield, but it's not really going to save her without backup.
* [[spoiler:StepfordSmiler: She is upbeat and loyal to her city-state... but her judgement reveals her to be having been forcibly given to the Demacian military at her parents' wishes while she was 13. She then says herself she wants to join the League (and thereby serve Demacia) because she has nothing else.]]
* TokenWholesome: Noted by many for being the one of the most sensibly dressed females.
* WaveMotionGun: Her ultimate is the closest thing the game has to one of these.
* AWorldwidePunomenon: A line she may say after being ordered to attack is the modern "Light em' up."

!!Malphite the Shard of the Monolith
->''"Beware, minions of chaos! The Shard of the Monolith has come."''
Malphite is a sentient rock being from another dimension. In his homeworld, all beings are living silicone creatures who live in a utopian society linked by a benevolent hive mind called the Monolith. Malphite was summoned from his home dimension to help bring order to Runeterra, and though dim, he aims to do so.
Malphite is a tank-type champion who gains a stone shield equal to 10% of his total health when he stays out of combat and can shoot a shard of rock to steal movement speed, slam the ground to deal damage in an area and lower enemy attack speed, deal splash damage to nearby enemies with his regular attacks, and rush forward to smash foes in an area, launching them into the air.
Malphite's alternate skins include [[GreenRocks Shamrock Malphite]], Coral Reef Malphite, Marble Malphite, and Obsidian Malphite.

!!Malzahar the Prophet of the Void
->''"The land may melt, the sea may swell, the sky may fall... but they will come!"''
Once a Seer with a powerful gift of foresight, Malzahar's talent worked against him and the calls of the Void led him to the lost city of Icathia. There his visions were replaced with images of the creatures of the Void invading Valoran and overtaking it, images he now works to make reality. Malzahar is a mage-type champion with chaotic and potent spells. He can unleash silencing energy between portals, create a void zone dealing damage based upon enemies' max health level, cast a curse that bounces to nearby enemies and restores some of his mana when the target dies, and paralyze a foe in a deadly beam. He also has the ability to summon Voidlings, little spider creatures, as temporary minions after casting four abilities.
Malzhar's alternate skins include [[PrinceOfPersia Shadow Prince Malzhar, Vizier Malzahar]], [[ArabianNightsDays Djinn Malzahar]], and Overlord Malzahar.
'''Associated tropes:'''
* BlueEyes
** GlowingEyesOfDoom: And trust us, beware him.
* CompletelyMissingThePoint: He refers to Kassadin as "Enlightened Walker of the Path" and tried to get him to join his Void Cult. He did this by kidnapping Kassadin's daughter and sacrificing her to the Void. Since then they've established a pretty strong rivalry.
* DemonicInvaders: His voidlings seem to be this. And that's not even mentioning his ''masters''.
* EyeBeams: His ultimate.
* GameplayAndStorySegregation: Kog'maw is supposedly drawn to Malzahar and aids him in battle, but in-game he's a separate hero. Can be averted if a Kog'maw and Malzahar player are on the same team, but apart from that Kog'maw has little to do with Malzahar in-game.
* GlassCannon
* GoMadFromTheRevelation
* GuardianEntity: It's unclear what Kog'Maw was going to do upon arrival, but he was the first to rush to the scene when Malzahar was fighting Kassadin outside the league.
* TheMinionMaster: Every four spellcasts of his winds up giving birth to a "Voidling", a small, only sort-of controllable pet with a limited lifespan. It starts out pretty ineffectual, but as its lifespan runs down, it gradually becomes much more dangerous, [[TurnsRed doubling in size, gaining half again their attack and armor values, and then gaining twice the attack speed]], in that order. Under ideal circumstances, he can have two at the same time.
* HumanoidAbomination: Has more or less become one.
* PowerEchoes
* PowerFloats
* PsychicDreamsForEveryone
* PunctuationShaker: He was originally "Mal'Zahar", presumably to keep with the other Void dwellers, but his name changed before release.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld
* TheRival: To Kassadin.
* StopHelpingMe: Their actual damage utility aside, to say that his pet voidlings have gotten Malzahar players into trouble before would be an understatement.

!!Maokai the Twisted Treant
->''"I will use this power until I am free of it."''
Once an oak on the Twisted Treeline battlefield, Maokai was animated by the chaotic magic in the land. He allowed himself to be summoned by the League in return for their researching a way to remove his sentience. But in the meantime, magekind is waiting to be punished.
Maokai is a tank-type champion with a mix of protective and disruptive abilities. He can knockback nearby foes into a slowing shockwave, turn into a spore cloud and root enemies, throw saplings that serve as both as vision-granting wards and walking landmines, and create a storm of whirling wood to block damage to his allies and unleash it back on foes. His passive absorbs the energy of nearby spellcasts into his sap, which provides a healing effect on his next attack when he stacks enough.
Maokai's alternate skins include Charred Maokai, Totemic Maokai and [[ChristmasTropes Festive Maokai]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* TheBeastmaster: Summons saplings which explode toward nearby enemies, or can be used to just temporarily keep watch over an area for Maokai and his team.
* BloodMagic: Implied in his Judgement that his saplings are birthed from of the dead.
* CounterAttack: His Vengeful Maelstrom ability reduces non-turret damage taken for him and his allies when they stay within its circle. When the effect ends, the ability damages enemies within the circle. It does extra damage for every point of damage absorbed, up to a limit.
* CursedWithAwesome: He hates mages and everything they've done, including and especially bringing him to life.
* DeathSeeker: Though more looking for a way to [[IncrediblyLamePun return to his roots]], so to speak.
* {{Expy}}: The saplings look and move quite a lot like {{Pikmin}}.
* GreenThumb: Can summon saplings, temporarily literally root an enemy in place, and his ultimate is stated to be "a great vortex of natural energy."
* GlowingEyesOfDoom
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: His first victims in his new life: the champions fighting on the Treeline at the time. He nearly took his fury out on the summoners and spectators as well, but fortunately Kayle was on the scene to cast her ultimate... [[GameplayAndStorySegregation on an entire crowd at once]]!
* SignificantAnagram: What Maokai himself might state -- I am Oak.
* SpiritualSuccessor: To the Plant King champion, who didn't make the final cut.
* WhenTreesAttack: He also takes hits like a tree.

!!Master Yi the Wuju Bladesman
->''"The art of Wuju lives on in Master Yi, and is plunged through the hearts of his foes."''
-->-- '''Soraka'''
Old lore: A wise old martial artist who has kept himself in his 30's for 1000 years via careful application of ki. He's an assassin that strikes quickly and moves so fast that he appears to teleport. Too bad he takes hits like an 1000-year old man.
New lore: A mystic warrior and keeper of the ancient art of Wuju hailing from Ionia, his village helping exhalt its traditions as well. When Noxus invaded the isle of Ionia, Yi went to met them on the fields of battle... but Noxus took the opportunity to test the latest invention of Singed on his village in his absence. Master Yi will not speak of what was done to his village, but he joined the League to avenge his kin and eventually end the evils of Noxus.
Master Yi is a melee DPS-type champion who can strike twice every seventh attack. His skills include a teleport-slash in a straight line, a passive boost to his attack damage that can be temporarily doubled, a health-restoring trance, and a self-buff that ups his movement- and attack-speed and makes him immune to slowing effects.
Master Yi's alternate skins include [[PaintItBlack Assassin Master Yi]], Ionia Master Yi, [[StarWars Chosen Master Yi]], [[{{Samurai}} Samurai Yi]] and [[{{Predator}} Headhunter Master Yi]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* BoringButPractical: Most Yi players will just run up and stab you to death. It works.
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: In his old lore, not explicit by any means in his new lore.
* DifficultButAwesome: Yi has an Ability Power-based build that reduces his DPS in exchange for a few gimmicky but effective ([[RuleOfFun and entertaining]] tricks.
* TheFaceless: He's never been seen in official artwork without his nifty helmet/visor, which completely covers everything from his eyes up.
* FanNickname: His sword (in the Chosen Yi skin) is referred to as "popsicle."
** He is also called "Master Right Click".
* FlashStep
* FragileSpeedster[=/=]GlassCannon
* GogglesDoNothing: "The Seven Lenses of Insight" actually allow him to see beyond the range of normal human vision, [[GameplayAndSTorySegregation not that it affects gameplay in any way]].
* GoryDiscretionShot: Of sorts -- whatever Singed's invention did to Yi's village, we are never told.
* HeroicBSOD: In his updated lore, Yi fell into one of these for years after his village was destroyed, dedicating himself to training and only prevented from going on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge because he was the LastOfHisKind.
* KatanasAreJustBetter: His Sword is about as close to a Katana as you could get.
** Made more so apparent in his [[http://clgaming.net/images/news/jarvan/MasterYi_Splash_4.jpg Samurai Yi Skin]]
* LastOfHisKind: As the last master of the Wuju Style, he has sworn to keep it alive. To accomplish this, he took Wukong, the Monkey King as his pupil and made him promise that he would someday take on a student of his own to pass on their craft.
* OlderThanTheyLook: In his old lore. The new lore for him does not indicate his age.
* {{Revenge}}: His updated lore states this is the reason he joined the League -- to get vengeance on Noxus for the massacre of his village.
* ShoutOut: He has a skin that makes him look like a [[StarWars Jedi]], complete with [[LaserBlade lightsaber]] in place of his normal sword.
* SkillGateCharacter: He teaches other teams to avoid backdooring, as Master Yi is one of the best champions to do this with.
* AWorldwidePunomenon:

A female bounty hunter and captain of her own ship from the town of Bilgewater. Her mother killed by a pirate (so she naturally distrusts them), she joined the League to help her toward uniting Bilgewater and finding her mother's killer. Miss Fortune is a ranged DPS-type champion who can fire a shot that bounces to a target behind it, rain down a hail of bullets that slow enemies in a small area, passively stack bonus damage on successive shots, increase her attack speed and apply a healing reduction on her targets, and shoot a storm of bullets directly in front of her. Her passive increases her movement speed as long as she remains out of combat.
Miss Fortune's alternate skins include [[WildWest Cowgirl Miss Fortune]], Waterloo Miss Fortune, [[ShowSomeLeg Secret Agent Miss Fortune]], [[SexySantaDress Candy Cane Miss Fortune]], [[MadMax Road Warrior Miss Fortune]], and [[TheMafia Mafia Miss Fortune]].

* MsFanservice: Could almost be her name. Absolutely everything about the character and the way she's been promoted by Riot has screamed "SEX APPEAL!"
* MoreDakka
* NamesTheSame: [[SkullGirls I thought MsFortune was a catgirl in a newer fighting game.]]
* OlderThanTheyLook: Her biography states that she managed to flirt and shoot her way through Bilgewater, only obtaining her ship at the age of sixteen. Presumedly, she didn't have much less potential for {{Fanservice}} at that age. While the time after she got her ship and joined the League is unknown, some of the fanbase assumes she's still not 'legal'.

-->-- '''Rozuel Fecirem''', Arch Adjudicator, noted in Mordekaiser's eligibility evalution
An entity of death and disease in a heavily spiked outfit that commands a legion of the dead, diseased, and dying. Mordekaiser is a tanky mage-type champion who [[CastFromHitPoints uses health as a resource]] to cast his spells. He can empower his attack to lash out at multiple targets, form a cloud of shrapnel around himself or an ally that defends them and damages nearby enemies, siphon destructive force in a cone, and place a damaging curse on enemy champions that, if they die while under its effects, turns them into a ghostly slave that Mordekaiser can command against their former allies. A portion of his damage dealt through spells is converted into "[[DeflectorShields shield points]]," giving him bonus health that depletes over time.
Mordekaiser's alternate skins include [[BloodKnight Infernal Mordekaiser]], [[RockMeAsmodeus Pentakill Mordekaiser]], [[AsskickingEqualsAuthority Lord Mordekaiser]], and [[PaletteSwap Dragon Knight Mordekaiser]].

* TheJuggernaut: A fed Mordekaiser is still pretty slow and has to get close to deal damage, but good luck stopping him once he's on his way.
* MightyGlacier
* OddFriendship: He's in a band with Sona, Yorick, and Karthus.
* PlagueMaster: Although none of his actual abilities reflect it, Mordekaiser is repeatedly mentioned in the backstory to be drawn to sources of plague and death, particularly in the Zaunite slums, [[PollutedWasteland "where the gutters glow green with techmaturgical runoff."]] In fact, in case you're wondering how he got into music in the first place...

There is a world far away where an ancient conflict still rages, a war split families. Morgana was Kayle's younger sister, long ago any filial connection between them. Kayle and her "angels" had fought for order, not seeing the "bigger picture," Morgana fought against what she saw as their tyranny, and so was branded fallen. One day as they were locked in what might have been their final conflict, they were summoned to Valoran. Morgana now fights with the final goal of ending her sister, once and for all.
Morgana is a mage-type champion who can cast a snaring ball of energy, curse an area to damage and lower the defenses of enemies, cast a magic-nullifying shield on herself or an ally, and release slowing bonds on nearby enemy champions that do extra damage and stun them if they stay in range. She passively restores health based on how much magic damage she does to her enemies.
Morgana's alternate skins include [[RainOfBlood Exiled Morgana]], [[LethalChef Sinful Succulence Morgana]], and [[{{Starcraft}} Blade Mistress Morgana]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AmericanKirbyIsHardcore: Chinese Morgana Is Scarier. Compare her [[http://gamersyndrome.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/morgana-splash.png old art]] to [[http://a.imageshack.us/img180/3821/fallenangelsplash0.jpg THIS.]]
* BlackMagicianGirl
* CainAndAbel: With Kayle.
* DarkChick
* DarkIsNotEvil: Possibly. She certainly thinks so, at the least.
* FallenAngel: [[CaptainObvious No shit.]]
* GlacierWaif: Looks tiny and frail, can take a massive beating and still fare quite well.
** Between her ability to [[OurVampiresAreDifferent drain life]] with any of her spells, a long ranged area effect spell that kills lane minions from a distance, her immunity to disables when Black Shield is up and her two separate disables, she is almost impossible to gank or force out of her lane. To compensate, she is one of the slowest characters and has very limited offensive reach.
* ImplacableMan: Morg is LoL's most infamous immoveable object; unless you counterpick her (which is not easy considering how she's strictly a counterpick in the first place), you will NOT be able to dislodge her from mid or top no matter how hard you try. Go ahead, do whatever you think will work - it's just not gonna happen.
* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: There's implications that she's done this in her background -- she started off helping the Chaos side of OrderVersusChaos with the reasonable justification that their enemies wanted to such order and safety at the cost of freedom and the individual...but by the time she was deemed as "fallen", she was said to be "not innocent", having used forgotten and forbidden ways to obsessively become more powerful to defeat her sister. However, it's not stated what horribleness she's done for her magic if any, and her goal of defeating Kayle to win the war for the chaotic side still remains.
* NonIndicativeName: Her Black Shield ability is... blue on the target. Presumedly, it's named as in "Black Magic Shield" and trying to avoid being long-winded.
* OurAngelsAreDifferent: As well as the general background differences noted in Kayle's entry, Morgana shows that when they [[FallenAngel "fall"]] they fall ''hard'' -- apart from what her dark magic has done to [[PointyEars her ears]], her skin has turned a pasty grayish colour and her wings have either been severely burned or have rotted while still attached to her, preventing her from flying. Despite this, she's still hot somehow.
* PointyEars: A result from her strong use of magic.
* PurpleEyes: Is pretty mysterious and powerful with her FallenAngel vibe and dark magics.
** GlowingEyesOfDoom
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: See Kayle's entry; although Morgana is explicitly younger than her, she's still undoubtably many thousands of years old.
* RivalTurnedEvil
* SquishyWizard: Averted. Morgana is actually one of the bulkiest mages in the game and can substitute quite well for a tank.
* StoneWall: Morg is banned left and right not because of her offensive ability (she CAN lay down a ton of pain, but it's very situational and will not happen very often at all), but because unless counterpicked, she is absolutely impossible to force out of lane. You can try and budge her, but she'll just shrug it off and go back to farming like nothing happened. Hell, even ganking her usually fails because she'll just toss down her ult and blast you with her combo, which really, really hurts to the point where you might actually die.
* {{Stripperiffic}}: Her outfit is more or less a long skirt and a bra. The way she takes hits, you'd think that's a Kevlar Wonderbra she's got on.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Compared to Kayle, she's a more girly girl -- Morgana exclusively uses spells and wears, y'know, [[{{Stripperiffic}} that outfit]].
* VillainsOutShopping: When she's not inflicting pain on her opponents in the Fields of Justice, Morgana runs a chain of bakeries called 'Sinful Succulence'.
** SupremeChef: Unlike what her appropriate skin [[LethalChef suggests]], the Journal of Justice claims her baking is excellent and she vaguely alludes to enjoying it (while swearing about her sister in the same breath, natch).

!!Nasus the Curator of the Sands
->''"The Keeper of the Sands, though contemplative, is not to be trifled with."''
Nasus is a librarian from another dimension where mankind is protected by a race of animal-headed men in the vein of the Egyptian pantheon. Nasus was also a soldier bent on fighting his totalitarian, crocodile-headed brother Renekton, but was summoned to Runeterra before he could finish him off. He agreed to help protect Runeterra from the forces that were poised to tear it apart, seeing them as no less threatening to innocent lives as the war he left behind.
Nasus is a fighter-type champion who can empower his next attack with a spell that grows stronger every time it deals a killing blow, summon an armor-melting circle of flames, age an opponent to slow them, and engage his ultimate to become an avatar of death, draining health from nearby enemies and turning that into attack damage. His passive grants him natural lifesteal on his attacks, returning a portion of the damage as health.
Nasus's alternate skins include [[StarGate Galactic Nasus]], Pharaoh Nasus, [[FallenHero Dreadknight Nasus]], and Riot K-9 Nasus.
'''Associated tropes:'''
* {{Archnemesis}}: To Renekton, and vice-versa.
* AwesomeYetImpractical: Nasus dominates the game if the enemy team lets him free farm. If the enemy is aware of this, they will never let you farm up that much and you will be a liability to your team.
* BadassBookworm
* BadassCreed: Like 90% of his lines.
--> ''"Life is part of a cycle; yours is over."''
--> ''"Anthropomancy. Divination by entrails."''
* BadPowersGoodPeople: Come on, Nasus can not only drain life, he can cause his target to age much faster! His passive is called "Soul Eater", his Spirit Fire is described to "desecrate the earth" and his ultimate, "Fury of the Sands" used to be called "Avatar of Death".
* CainAndAbel: Nasus versus Renekton.
* CulturedWarrior
* DarkIsNotEvil: In the season one trailer, he appears as a largely inarticulate monster, working with the likes of [[EldritchAbomination Cho'gath]] and [[CompleteMonster Warwick]]. He is huge, menacing, and constantly rambles on about death in a deep, booming voice. He is also a truly noble creature, a gentleman and a scholar.
* DishingOutDirt: Well, sand.
* EgyptianMythology
* EvolvingAttack: His "Siphoning Strike" ability, which gains bonus damage every time you lasthit with it. Once you put a few skill points in it, it's quite easy to power it up several times per creep wave... if you're free to concentrate on the timing, which is unlikely in a game where {{griefing}} enemy players is a key tactic. After the laning phase breaks down, you can steal away and farm in peace... but [[IneffectualLoner it's dangerous to go alone]].
* HotSkittyOnWailordAction: Nasus looks like Anubis (jackal), and Renekton looks like Sobek (crocodile). One can only wonder what their parents looked like.
* MagikarpPower: In the early game, Nasus is quite an easy target, but "Siphoning Strike" can hit like a train in the late game. The number one rule of fighting against Nasus is "''Do. Not. Let. Him. Free. Farm''" or he will turn those 200 creep kills into a staff-whack that removes half of your health.
* TheMario: Does a bit of everything.

!!Nautilus the Titan of the Depths
->''"When lost in utter darkness, there is nothing left but forward."''
Once a sailor commissioned by the Institute of War to explore the unexplored seas, Nautilus was abandoned at sea while he was dragged down into the depths by an unseen force, grabbing the ship's anchor as he sank. When he awoke again, he found that his diver's suit had merged with his body, and his memories were fuzzy at best. With nothing to go on but the anchor, he trudged through the depths of the ocean until he reached Bilgewater, whereupon he was directed to the Institute of War. He joined the League so that he could discover and punish those responsible for a lifetime lost.
Nautilus is a tank-type champion whose first attack on a target deals extra damage and roots them in place briefly. He can throw his anchor, pulling himself and an enemy towards each other if it hits a target or pulling himself forward if it hits terrain, put up a health shield that causes his attacks to deal splash damage, release three slowing rings of explosives that expand outward to slow fleeing foes, and release an accelerating shockwave that knocks enemies back on its way to its target where it explodes with greater force.
Nautilus' alternate skins include [[{{Warhammer40k}} Abyssal Nautilus]] and [[TunnelKing Subterranean Nautilus]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AnchorsAway: Nautilus is armed with the anchor of the ship aboard which he served. He grabbed it as he was being dragged to the sea floor.
* DarkIsEvil: Whatever grabbed Nautilus came from a black ooze in the section of the ocean.
* {{Determinator}}: Despite having incredibly hazy memories, and being weighed down by an impossibly heavy diver's suit-anchor combo, Nautilus woke up after death and walked across the sea floor for who knows how long, in utter blackness and loneliness, in order to find the people who decided he was better off dead.
* GameplayAndStoryIntegration: Nautilus in his suit is so lumbering, he couldn't swim back to shore. As a result, his movement speed is tied for the slowest in the game where every melee champion move faster than him, leaving him reliant on using his anchor through his Dredge Line ability for mobility.
* [[GrapplingHookPistol Grappling Hook Anchor]]: His Dredge Line ability uses his anchor for this, capable even of dragging Nautilus to terrain, turrets, and walls.
* HooksAndCrooks: He uses his anchor as a very effective grappling hook to overcome his lumbering speed.
* LeftForDead: His backstory made concise.
* MightyGlacier: A very dedicated tanking character with large amounts of disruption and a respectable damage output, but has the lowest possible base movement speed, a trait usually reserved for ranged characters.
* PowerGlows: His Titan's Wrath ability, causing his anchor to glow red, and his eyes glow even brighter.
* OceanMadness: Sort of. By the time Nautilus got back to land, he no longer remembered much of the details of his life.
* RedEyesTakeWarning
** GlowingEyesOfDoom: This can be justified as being the lights of his diver's suit.
*** Taken to a logical conclusion with his Titan's Wrath ability, causing his eyes to glow ''even brighter'' while it lasts.
* {{Revenge}}: His reason for being in the League is basically to take revenge on those responsible for his lost life and time. Hell, this may even be [[ThePowerOfHate the reason he's alive in the first place!]]
* ShockwaveStomp: His Riptide ability. The waves that fan out can hit his enemies twice, meaning it may be better to hold your ground against Nautilus. Or... you're in a MortonsFork situation.
* ShoutOut: The resemblance to the [[{{Bioshock}} Big Daddy]] has not gone unnoticed.
** The Abyssal skin for Nautilus quite uses patterns and colours similar to [[{{Warhammer40000}} the Black Legion Chaos Space Marines]].
* StoneWall: Well he is a tank, after all.
* StuffBlowingUp: His ultimate is Depth Charge, blowing up upon impact with its main target and causing them to fly up into the air.
* TunnelKing: Subterranean Nautilus
* WalkDontSwim: His diver's suit was so heavy that he had to trudge along the ocean floor all the way to land.

!!Nidalee the Bestial Huntress
->''"Nidalee was taught to fight by her feline family, battling viciously with tooth and nail. Something in her feline ways may draw you to her, but remember that she is no pussycat."''
A child abandoned in a magical jungle when her treasure hunting parents were struck down, Nidalee was raised by a family of jungle cats. Infused with magic, she can morph into a cougar at will. She joined the League to protect the environment from civilization.
Nidalee is a ranged-DPS/support champion who can morph into a melee fighter-type cougar with bonus defensive stats and movement speed when she casts her ultimate. As a human, she has a long ranged spear throw that gets stronger the further the spear flies, traps that damage and weaken enemies, and a healing spell that also increases attack speed. As a cougar, she can pounce to deal damage where she lands, slash enemies to deal bonus damage that gets stronger the weaker her target is, and slash in an area around her. In both forms she moves faster when she travels through brush.
Nidalee's alternate skins include Leopard Nidalee, Snow Bunny Nidalee, [[FrenchMaid French Maid Nidalee]], Pharaoh Nidalee, and [[HotWitch Bewitching Nidalee]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AllWitchesHaveCats: Her Bewitching skin changes her cougar form into a black cat.
* AmbiguouslyBrown
* BladeOnAStick
* BizarreAndImprobableBallistics: An ability of her's involves throwing a spear, which does more damage based off how far away it is from Nidalee upon impact, seemingly like a gyrojet. That would be bizarre enough - but due to how it's coded, it does just do more damage based off how far away it is from Nidalee upon impact, and thus ''also'' deals more damage from Nidalee just moving back away from the spear and its intended target...
* CatGirl: Well, she doesn't actually have cat ears, but she can turn into a cougar and was raised by cats. It certainly seems this was what the creator(s?) was/were going for.
* CrutchCharacter: Is less powerful endgame than a dedicated support, ranged-DPS, or fighter champion.
* DifficultButAwesome: The above and below claims are somewhat subverted in that during the most recent official tournament game between TSM and CLG (ie: two of the best teams playing LoL), Nidalee was still automatically banned by TSM solely due to CLGs Hotshotgg's fearsome reputation when playing her. She's now almost always the first-pick ban in professional matches.
* {{Fanservice}}: A sexy [[StealthPun cougar]] in a FurBikini whose /dance emote causes her to pole dance on her spear and whose /joke is "Did I mention it's mating season?" And then there's...
* FrenchMaid: A skin for her. '''[[{{Fanservice}} Yes.]]'''
* HelloNurse: Nidalee is apparently very popular with men in-universe, ([[StealthPun especially the younger crowd]]).
* ImpossiblyLowNeckline: Did we mention the {{Fanservice}} already?
* JunglePrincess
* NatureHero
* RaisedByWolves
* StealthPun: She has a hidden passive when [[VoluntaryShapeshifting in cougar form]] that gives a very small amount of exp to any nearby friendly champions lower level than her. [[DontExplainTheJoke Because she's a "cougar".]]
* {{Stripperiffic}}
* VoluntaryShapeshifting
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/NocturneSquare_3847.png]]
!!Nocturne the Eternal Nightmare
->''"The darkness is closing in... it’s pitch black now... but I can still see him..."''
-->-- '''Kelvin Ma''', patient #4236
A creature of darkness and dreams, Nocturne caused insanity and death to the League's summoners before his capture. The League deduced him as an assassin, attacking the mages at their weakest. To that end Nocturne is now a pawn of what he hates most; bound to the will of the summoners he would gladly haunt.
Nocturne is a fighter-type assassin champion who can periodically unleash a whirling lifesteal attack, shoot out dark hands that leave behind trails of darkness that boost his speed, block spells to boost his attack speed, and trap foes in a growing nightmare that causes them to run around in fear if left unbroken. His ultimate blinds the enemy team to one another, allowing Nocturne to pounce to a helpless foe from a huge distance.
Nocturne's alternate skins include [[EvilIsDeathlyCold Frozen Nocturne]], [[PowerOfTheVoid Void Nocturne]], [[SpiderMan Ravager Nocturne]], and [[BedsheetGhost Haunting Nocturne]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AndIMustScream: An odd variation of it; he is chained to the League's will. Literally.
* BerserkButton: Summoners seem to ''really'' piss him off.
* BladeBelowTheShoulder: He has two ''gigantic'' curved blades attached to (growing from?) his forearms.
* DarkIsEvil
* EasterEgg: If Graves uses his Smokescreen ability on Nocturne, Graves says one of two special lines of dialogue.
* EldritchAbomination: He's a dream-born monster who utterly despises all life, ''especially'' Summoners, and wants nothing more than to slaughter everything because it offends him.
* EnemyToAllLivingThings: He REALLY hates Summoners, but life in general is an abomination in his eyes.
* {{Expy}}: Of Spectre from [[DefenseOfTheAncients DotA]], in both looks and abilities (trails of darkness, and materialising behind foes).
** Also shares a team-blinding ultimate with the Dark Lady from ''HeroesOfNewerth''.
** Not to mention, [[{{Pokemon}} Darkrai]]. No seriously. Nightmares anyone?
* GameBreakingBug: His Duskbringer trails count as dying units with large amounts of hitpoints when they expire, making enemy Trundles and Alistars very happy summoners.
* TheDevTeamThinksOfEverything: The first part of his ultimate, Paranoia, actually affects summoners, not the champions themselves, making them distrustful of their fellow summoners around them for a few seconds and literally blinding them with fear. As such, this effect also barely crosses over into ''allied'' summoners, darkening the corners of their screens and providing a very faint laughing sound.
* GlowingEyesOfDoom
* HeroicSacrifice: The summoners who died to Nocturne so the League could capture him.
** Actually, its been strongly implied the "Summoners" were an illusion used to trap him.
* HumansThroughAlienEyes: Nocturne makes it clear that he's an OmnicidalManiac because life as we know it offends and disgusts him.
* LaserGuidedKarma: After delivering eternal nightmares to the summoners for so long, they decided to respond in kind by chaining him to the League to serve the very same summoners for extra poetic justice.
* LightningBruiser: He was designed to be a GlassCannon, but anyone halfway decent with him will build him tanky thanks to Duskbringer's attack boost, which allows you to build a fair amount of defense and still do enormous damage. When built this way, he's nearly impossible to peel off a target or escape from but can also take a good beating and fight off multiple opponents with ease.
* LivingDream: The possibility was mentioned that he is someone's nightmares given physical form.
* OmnicidalManiac: Now that he's been ripped out of the dream world and into the real world, his only desire is to massacre anything and everything he can get to.
* PsychoForHire: Probably the only relief of his slavery; at least he still gets to torture people during matches.
--> "Bring me more fleshbags to slice up!"
* SealedEvilInACan: In a nexus shard. That is, until someone needs him on the Fields of Justice. Once a match is over, back in he goes.
* ShoutOut: His Ravager skin has more than a passing resemblance to [[SpiderMan Carnage]].
** An omnicidal assassin who kills people on their dreams and hates an specific group, which he harassed in the past. Are we talking about Nocturne or Freddy Krueger?
* UnstoppableRage: Considering that he's being held prisoner by the people whom he despises above all others, this is pretty much his only setting.
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/NunuSquare_4305.png]]
!!Nunu the Yeti Rider (and Willump the Yeti)
->''"Imagine what Nunu will be like when he grows up!"''
Lore V1: An Inuit-ish boy who came from a family that rode Yetis, rodeo-style, for fun. After getting hold of the world's largest Yeti, Nunu went a little nuts with power and basically decided to rampage across the planet for fun and profit.
Lore V2: Nunu is a kind girl born with the ability to wield ice magic. She befriended a sick yeti and raised him back to health, and the two have been friends ever since.
Lore V3: Nunu is a orphan raised by yetis, who rides into battle alongside of his adoptive Yeti brother Willump in order to fight for Yeti rights.
Nunu is a fighter-type champion with a wide variety of skills at his disposal, making him very versatile. He can shoot ice-balls that slow enemies, cast a movement and attack-speed buffs on allies that also buffs himself, restore his health by eating minions, and create a blizzard around his body that slows enemies before dealing massive damage. His passive makes his next spell free after a certain number of standard attacks.
Nunu's alternate skins include [[BigfootSasquatchAndYeti Sasquatch Nunu]], [[ChristmasTropes Workshop Nunu]], [[SesameStreet Grungy Nunu]], [[AscendedMeme Nunu Bot]], and Demolisher Nunu.
'''Associated tropes:'''
* BlackMagicianGirl: Arguably, when Nunu was a girl. The yeti takes care of the physical work while she casted spells.
* BigEater
* BigfootSasquatchAndYeti
* ABoyAndHisX: A boy, er, girl, no, boy and his yeti.
* BrownEyes: But Nunu's not the most typical person ever, really, so, AvertedTrope.
** If you are in Runeterra and you don't have glowing eyes, it makes you unusual.
* ChargedAttack: His ultimate is a three second channel, during which nearby enemies are slowed. If you manage to complete the entire channel without getting interrupted, you pretty much win the teamfight by default.
* DifficultButAwesome: His ultimate is an absolute bitch to land, as almost all champions can interrupt casting, and some of those who cannot can escape it in time. When fully channeled, through clever use of brush, proper teamwork and timing it is the absolute most powerful thing in the game.
* EskimoLand
* FanVid: Amazingly, a whole series starring the game's [[ArtificialStupidity Nunu Bot]] and player Angry Goran. Check the first one out [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BoO_O5vHHqg here]]. Also an AscendedMeme: Riot honoured the series with an actual Nunu Bot skin, featuring a robotic yeti that mimics the voice from the series.
* FantasyCounterpartCulture: Inuit but with yeti-riding as a pasttime.
* FlipFlopOfGod: He's a boy. No, a girl. No, a boy!
* JackOfAllStats: In terms of gameplay.
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/OlafSquare_9163.png]]
!!Olaf the Berserker
->''"Beware the war cry of the Berserker. What surges toward you is unyielding, free from the shackles of reason."''
A warrior from the far away realm of Lokfar. He and his crew were in search of a prosperous, new land to plunder for his seafaring people when a storm destroyed his ship and wiped out his crew. He washed up on the shores of Valoran and struck a deal with the mages of the League. He fought for them as they found a way to return him to his home. Olaf kept his true purpose secret, as well as most information about his tribe, otherwise he suspected the mages would dominate his people like they did all of Valoran.
Olaf is a fighter-type champion who can damage and slow enemies in a line by throwing his axe, which can be picked up again to shorten its cooldown, grant himself bonus damage based on maximum health along with lifesteal and spell vamp, land a reckless strike that damages Olaf and the target for a flat amount of health, and make himself immune to disables, reduce all damage taken by a flat amount, and passively grant himself armor penetration for a brief period. His passive increases his attackspeed for every percent of health that he's missing.
Olaf's alternate skins include Forsaken Olaf, Glacial Olaf and [[AscendedMeme Brolaf]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* ArmorPiercingAttack: Everyone has options for it, but he's pretty much the biggest utilizer of it in the game.
** His Reckless Swing ability does true damage, which is so armor-piercing it deals full damage regardless of enemy defenses, unless they have something that makes them invincible. On a more minor level, his ultimate gives him more armour penetration per level.
* AscendedMeme: Brolaf, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnVLWKsO6CQ now a skin!]]
** Doubles as the ascension of Garen's favorite battle cry. BROMACIA!
* AxeBeforeEntering: His ax-throw usually hits you way before he appears on-screen.
* AnAxeToGrind
* AttackAttackAttack: Due to his passive and buffing ability, the best tactic for surviving a fight with Olaf is to make sure he dies first or ignore him entirely. Going somewhere in between will probably allow him to slaughter you all at some point in the fight.
* BarbarianHero
* TheBerserker: [[CaptainObvious It's his title, if you haven't noticed yet.]]
* TheBladeAlwaysLandsPointyEndIn: His axe when thrown, which being an axe probably makes more sense.
* CastFromHitPoints: His Reckless Swing ability deals equal bonus damage to himself and an enemy. Considering his passive ability, this can be a ''good'' thing.
* ICanStillFight: Normally, players are below half their maximum health would retreat to heal up. When Olaf's below half health, he's [[LetsGetDangerous just getting started]].
* ImplacableMan: His ultimate works well to making him this, making him immune to crowd-control effects and reducing damage taken.
* MagikarpPower: At lower levels, the vast majority of ranged champions easily handle him on a one-vs-one basis, and his jungling is fairly risky since utilizing his potential to the fullest requires him to be constantly low on health and easily killed by an enemy champion plundering in on him. In a teamfight late-game with Olaf's build complete and his allies with him to stop the enemy from simply backing away, Olaf is a MightyGlacier with very few drawbacks of the "glacier" aspect being apparent.
* OneManArmy: Get him to level eighteen and give him his core items, and congrats, he's more a force of nature than a champion.
* {{Plunder}}: His motivation that ended up getting him stuck in Valoran.
-->"To plunder!"
* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: A viking. He really doesn't trust the summoners.
* ScreamingWarrior: When he activates his buffing abilities. This is a good sign to his enemies to watch out.
* ShockAndAwe: Mildly; his Reckless Swing ability hits the target with a lightning bolt.
* UnstoppableRage: Get him to half health and watch him pop his ultimate. If he's not on your side, you best start running.
* ViolationOfCommonSense: Remember CriticalExistenceFailure especially applies to Olaf when using him.
* WhosLaughingNow: Most Olaf players will let you get them to at least half health before they chop you to pieces.
* YourMom: From the Brolaf skin:
-->"I'm [[GameBreaker OP]]? Your mom is OP!"
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/OriannaSquare_9909.png]]
!!Orianna the Lady of Clockwork
->''"Dance with me, my pet. Dance with me into oblivion."''
Orianna Reveck was a young girl who loved dancing and the League of Legends. She trained to achieve her goal of one day becoming a champion in the League but died in a tragic accident. Her father, a brilliant scientist from Piltover, built a new Orianna -- a powerful android that could fulfill her dream of being a champion, along with a mechanical sphere to protect her from dying again. Orianna is not quite human but is desperate to fulfill the wishes of her father and predecessor.
Orianna is a unique mage-type champion whose abilities are all based around her floating ball. The Ball can fly to a target location, dealing damage to any enemies it hits along the way, emit an electronic field that damages and slows enemies and boosts allies, attach to Orianna or her allies to boost their defenses and give them a temporary shield, or damage and knock enemies around with a blast of electricity. For her passive, Orianna's basic attacks deal additional damage that increases with each consecutive strike on the same enemy.
Orianna's alternate skins include Gothic Orianna, [[CreepyDoll Sewn Chaos Orianna]] and Bladecraft Orianna.
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AttackDrone: The Ball.
* BondCreatures: The Ball
* ClockworkCreature
* CompanionCube: Her ball, and to a lesser extent herself.
* DanceBattler: Not in a typical sense though. Orianna does the dancing while the Ball does the fighting.
* DifficultButAwesome: All of her abilities are centered on the ball, not Orianna herself, and on top of that her basic attacks deal more damage the more she attacks the same opponent. In order to be succesful with her you need to micro around your ball to a good position for her skills, [[GlassCannon stay out of enemy range]], target the weakest opponent and be able to tell when activating your ball's abilities are going to help or hamper your team. In the hands of someone who's good with her, however, she's arguably the best character in the game.
** Mastering when to use her abilities is crucial to success at her. Used in the right place, the slow/speedup can save yourself and teammates from a gank, and a combo of the slow and the character-moving ulti can actually do enough damage to kill them. However, both have a smaller area of effect than you might think; miss one or put it in the wrong place, and you'll end up dead. Using the shield (which puts the Ball on an allied champion) can also change fights: you can shield a hurting ally, or you can put in on an initiator who can hop on the enemy, just to list two examples.
** Her Ball teleports back to her if she gets too far away. If you were just about to activate your ultimate, you now look like a [[{{Noob}} complete idiot]].
* {{Expy}}: The mechanical distortion in her voice makes her sound like a character from ''Videogame/{{Portal}}''; either [=GLaDOS=] or the Military Android Turrets.
** The characteristic of her skills emanating from the Ball was supposedly inspired by [[TouhouProject Youmu Konpaku]].
* EyelessFace: Her Sewn Chaos Orianna skin has X's sewn over the eyes.
* ImprobableWeaponUser
* MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter
* MagikarpPower: Her autoattack passive is mostly ineffectual early game, but its bonus damage increases sixfold from levelling up (on top of the actual autoattack damage itself), and it ''also'' scales with the help Ability Power items.
* PlanarShockwave: Her ultimate ability causes The Ball to emit a shockwave that pulls enemies towards it.
* RobotBuddy: The Ball
* RobotGirl
* ReplacementGoldfish: She, rather off-puttingly, insists that she ''is'' the original Orianna, and gives no indication that she realizes she isn't normal in the first place.
* ShoutOut: Her quote, shown above, is a blatant reference to a [[MemeticMutation popular line]] from ''InvaderZim''.
** Her joke in game is a reference to [[RobotGirl Aigis]] from ''{{Persona 3}}''.
* SwissArmyWeapon: That is one useful ball.
* UncannyValley: In-universe, people find her empty imitation of life to be very unnerving. During her League Judgment, she casually performs blatantly inhuman actions, such as keeping her head locked on to the summoner speaking to her while her body contorts in physically impossible positions to wind her key. The observation noted that, while she is far more human looking than Blitzcrank (who's basically a big lumpy man-shaped robot), she looks far less ''alive.'' Her delighted squeal of glee on being accepted as a champion is described as "horrifying".

!![=LeBlanc=] the Deceiver
->''"The world is very different for those who cannot see beyond what is placed before their very eyes."''
Evaine [=LeBlanc=] is an evil, manipulative, aristocratic sorceress of illusion. She is the head of the Black Rose, an entire society of ageless illusionists who acted as the evil chancellors behind the Noxian throne until the monarchy was destroyed. She has joined the League to bring the new global authority under the Black Rose's heel.
[=LeBlanc=] is a mage-type assassin champion. She can shoot a magic missile that deals magic damage and will explode and silence the debuffed enemies if [=LeBlanc=] hits them with another spell, teleport back and forth from two spots at will, shackle enemies with magic that locks them in place if the bond isn't broken, and her ultimate is to repeat one of her other spells with more damage. Her passive ability allows her to become invisible for a brief interim when her life becomes too low, reappearing with a dummy made of illusions to confuse foes and help her escape.
[=LeBlanc's=] skins include [[Disney/OneHundredAndOneDalmatians Wicked LeBlanc]], [[SexySantaDress Mistletoe LeBlanc]] and [[TheDCU Prestigious LeBlanc]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AncientConspiracy
* AristocratsAreEvil
* CrutchCharacter: Terrifying for the first two-thirds of the game, then falls off HARD if she isn't fed - though a good early game for her almost ''invariably'' means some other poor sucker is going to be miles behind on the resource curve, and falling off much harder and sooner.
* DarkChick
* EvilChancellor
* GlassCannon
* ImpliedLoveInterest: Swain.
* LadyOfBlackMagic
* LegacyCharacter: [[EpilepticTrees Possibly.]]
* MasterOfIllusion
* NinjaLog
* OlderThanTheyLook: Her title is the Deciever, and her organization deals with illusions. Since she's as old as the ageless lord of Noxus, Boram Darkwill, this would make her EXTREMELY old.
** Or [[EpilepticTrees maybe not,]] as her Judgement implies that [=LeBlanc=] is the honorary title of the Order of the Black Rose, [[LegacyCharacter passed down from each matron to her sucessor, together with an illusion that makes them all share the same appearance]].

!!Lee Sin the Blind Monk
->''"The actions of one may sunder the world, but the diligence of many may rebuild it."''
A blind martial artist from Ionia. Formerly a magician prodigy in training at the League, Lee Sin's future as a summoner came to an abrupt end when his arrogance led to his accidentally disintegrating an entire village on his first attempt. After his departure, he subsequently joined the Shojin Monastery vowing never to use magic again. Years later Lee Sin burned himself in protest over the Noxian-Ionian disputes, [[RedemptionEqualsDeath hoping to achieve atonement in martyrdom]]. Despite this he survived the ordeal, losing his eyes from the burns but regaining his will to live. To make a difference in Valoran's affairs Lee Sin rejoined the League, this time as a champion on the Fields of Justice.
Lee Sin was a champion in-production but canceled due to his design not being seen fantastic enough -- however he was featured in early trailers for the game. [[WildMassGuessing There were rumors of him being put back into development, however, especially since champion design has gotten less fantastic as of mid-2010.]] In late March 2011 he was announced once more, with a new model and skillset (although his original model is available for purchase as a skin).
Lee Sin is a fighter-type champion with an Energy Meter instead of a ManaMeter (the first beyond the three ninjas) and a strong theme of duality and combo-oriented fighting in his abilities. After using any of his three basic skills, he may choose to perform a secondary follow-up; he can combine damaging waves of sound with a charging attack, allied damage interception with a lifestealing self-buff, and a location-revealing gale with a crippling slow. Lee Sin's passive grants him a short burst of attack speed and energy restoration after using an ability, and his ultimate is a roundhouse kick that sends an opponent flying backwards (and through obstacles), and in turn disables enemies caught in the victim's path.
Lee Sin's alternate skins include Acolyte Lee Sin, [[BruceLee Traditional Lee Sin]] and [[JackieChan Dragon Fist Lee Sin]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AprilFoolsDay: Announced just before the patch closest to April 1st; between the screenshots of specially-made models and visuals but his champion spotlight throwing all seriousness out the window, fans were on tenterhooks. But it turned out Riot actually did release him.
* TheAtoner
* BaldOfAwesome
** BlindingBangs: In his old design and his Traditional Lee Sin skin.
* BarefistedMonk
* BrotherChuck: He was announced/modeled during beta and early movies but did not show up in the game until nearly 3 years after his initial appearance.
* BruceLeeClone
* CrutchCharacter: Is absolutely terrifying early and mid game, but if he doesn't get fed, he doesn't do so well in a teamfight situation (unless, of course, you put that roundhouse kick in the right place...)
* DemotedToExtra: For tournaments before his official release, his character model was used so that another person could spectate in the game.
* {{Determinator}}: The man set himself on fire lasting two freakin months. He survived.
* DisabilityImmunity: His passive in-production and in his April Fools announcement was, logically, the inability to be blinded. Thankfully averted because you'll almost ''never'' run into blind.
* DisabilitySuperpower
* {{Expy}}: Lee Sin is visually very similar to [[FinalFantasyIV Yang Fang Leiden]] (the latter can be seen as the picture for the BareFistedMonk page).
* EyeScream
* FlashStep: He has two skills that allow him to blink to friendly or enemy targets.
* {{Foil}}: To Udyr, a fellow martial artist. Lee Sin is calm, composed and well-groomed. Udyr is a raging wildman with shaggy hair, dresses in bearskins, and who looks like he hasn't bathed in weeks.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[WildMassGuessing A Journal of Justice entry]] mentioned a monk protesting the Noxian occupation of Ionia by burning himself. When Ionia was freed, he stopped and was rushed off to be treated, with the text specifically mentioning his eyes were ruined...
** And now [[http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=605612 confirmed]] to be one and the same.
* TheGhost: Before his official introduction, he got a lot of indirect references in the Lore, but did not make a direct appearence for months.
* ImprobableHairstyle: Has a braided topknot that's long enough that he wraps it around his neck two or so times.
* InspiredBy: His self-immolation in protest to a major conflict was clearly shaped by [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Th%C3%ADch_Qu%E1%BA%A3ng_%C4%90%E1%BB%A9c another monk]], over TheVietnamWar.
* JapaneseRanguage: Several times you can hear stereotypical L and R switching.
--> "Brindness is no impairment against a smelly enemy."
* {{Jossed}}: Popular fan theory that he's been remade into another, already released champion.
* KiAttacks
** KamehameHadoken
* LightningBruiser: To the point where he can 1v1 Jax, which for most others would be suicide.
* MeditatingUnderAWaterfall: In [[http://www.leagueoflegends.com/board/attachment.php?attachmentid=140463&d=1301011184 his 'Classic' splash art]].
* MyGreatestFailure: Lee Sin was once a very talented summoner... but he felt he was held back by being taught at the same pace as everyone else, and tried his hand at summoning a creature from a foreign jungle. It didn't work, and the spell summoned a human boy... ''who fell apart'', and the boy's entire village was found to have been accidently killed by feedback from the spell. While the League was willing overlook the grave error due to Lee Sin's sheer talent, he left the Institute of War and joined the [[FictionalCounterpart Shojin Monastery]], swearing off magic.
* MysteriousWatcher
* MythologyGag: His Traditional Lee Sin skin looks like his first design while the game was still in production.
* RapunzelHair: Lee Sin is bald aside from a braid using hair from the center of the top of his head, which is so long he wraps it around his neck.
* ShockwaveStomp
* SignificantAnagram: Lee Sin can see nil.
** PunnyName: How does he find you? He can't see, so he "Lee Sins" for you.
* SuperSenses
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: He was one of the first champions designed and was in DevelopmentHell until 2011 when he was finally released.
* ZenSurvivor: Well, duh. A pretty big part of his characterization is that, [[TruthInTelevision like any good Zen teacher]], talking to him while expecting a straightforward answer will prove completely infuriating. In his League Judgment, he wound up talking rhetorical circles around the summoner who was supposed to judge ''him''.
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/LeonaSquare_4862.png]]
!!Leona the Radiant Dawn
->''"The sun’s rays reach all of Runeterra, so too must the image of its champion."''
A young woman raised by a warrior society trained to revel in violence but instead rejected their war-mongering ways and their rite of passage that required two teenage members of the tribe to fight to the death. Her planned execution was called off when she was revealed to posses the divine powers of the sun and indoctrinated into a society of enlightened warrior priests known as the Solari.
Leona is a tank-type champion who can stun enemies with her shield, create an explosive solar forcefield around herself, dash to enemies she pierces with her sword, and bring down a mighty solar blast in an area that stuns enemies in the center and slows them at the edge. Her passive puts a mark on enemies hit by her abilities that deals extra damage when they're attacked by one of her allies.
Leona's alternate skins include Defender Leona, [[{{Valkyries}} Valkyrie Leona]] and Iron Solari Leona.
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AffirmativeActionGirl: Specifically designed to answer the fanbase's complaints that there were no female tanks.
* AuthorAppeal: [[http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?p=18556007#18556007 Her concept artist IronStylus heavily based Leona off his wife.]]
* {{BFS}}: It's got to be at least four feet long, held with one hand!
* ChildhoodFriends: With Pantheon.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: Shown in her judgement -- she was unable to stand by while others were bullied, and is internally unable to forgive herself for the many she couldn't save from the Kor, causing her to join the League of Legends to go more good to make up for that.
* TheChosenOne
* CombatStilettos: Despite her both being a tank and hailing from a particularly treacherous mountain range - [[MST3KMantra stranger costume choices have been seen, though.]]
* DefectorFromDecadence: Of sorts -- she does not abide the disregard for life in the Rakkor, but understands the logic of it since she knows their food stores are constantly strained.
* DeflectorShields: Appears around her for her Eclipse ability.
* DeliberateValuesDissonance: Despite disliking the Rakkor's brutality and the fact one of the teenagers in every Kor ritual is supposed to be killed, she does not begrudge the logic -- her people are stated to have a strained food supply.
* FieryRedhead: Though a bit unclear with her portrait's lighting, she's clearly a redhead in-game.
* HeyItsThatVoice: [[CowboyBebop Faye]] seems to have put on some clothes for once, or perhaps [[SoulSeries Xianghua]] got tired of having to block with her sword.
* HolyHandGrenade
* HotChickWithASword
* IBrokeANail: Parodied with her joke, in which she removes her left gauntlet to say:
--> ''Think I broke a nail. Good thing it wasn't mine.''
* KillSat: Her ultimate, Solar Flare.
* KnightInShiningArmor: Female example!
* LadyOfWar: Hell, her dance basically looks like it's a martial drill.
* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: She backs behind her shield while her Eclipse's effect is active. Her taunt lampshades her use of it, complete with her tapping her shield with her right fist.
--> ''Next time, try to leave a dent!''
* TheMessiah: To the Solari religious order, with her powers having never been seen since the founder of their order.
* MartialPacifist: Refused to fight to the death in a traditional coming-of-age ceremony because she believed that might should only be used to protect others.
* MsFanservice: Averted, since mostly all the female characters in this game are MsFanservice (and {{Glass Cannon}}s/{{Fragile Speedster}}s) by default, Leona was specifically created to fulfill a request for an inversion.
** There is no aversion for her Valkyrie skin though - it covers a whole lot less than her normal skin.
*** Standing in a bush in her Valkyrie skin makes her skirt see-through, and you can see her panties.
* ThePaladin
* TheParagon
* ThePowerOfTheSun
* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: Although she is a member of such a race, she doesn't share their zeal for battle - she only wants to protect others.
* ShieldBash: Her Shield of Daybreak ability does this, stunning the target hit. Her critical strike hit is one as well.
* ShoutOut: You'll take one look at her Valkyrie skin and expect her ult to turn into [[ValkyrieProfile Nibelung Valest]].
* StoneWall: One of the best examples in the game -- unlike the other tanks, who usually either have an ability that deals semi-decent damage or a passive that gives them some offensive perk (like Rammus), all of Leona's abilities are focused around disabling and soaking damage and have incredibly low base damage and awful scaling. Her Sunlight passive can be quite powerful, but it requires an ally to proc it, further emphasizing her intended role as this trope.
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Lulu_Square_0_1516.png]]
!!Lulu the Fae Sorceress
->''"The best path between two points is upside-down, between, then inside-out and round again."''
A young Yordle girl with a boundless imagination who befriended a fae sprite by the name of Pix. She followed Pix to the hidden land of the fae where she learned from their chaotic magic. However, upon leaving, she discovered that centuries had passed in the outside world. Finding herself distanced from everyone who lived normal lives, Lulu turned to the one place where the strange and unique are celebrated: the League of Legends.
Lulu is a support-type champion who excels at buffing allies and disabling enemies with her quirky spells. Her fae friend Pix shoots bursts of energy that go along with her basic attacks. She can fire a slowing beam of magic from both her and Pix, cast a spell that either speeds up an ally and boosts their ability power or transforms an enemy into a harmless critter, send Pix to shield an ally or harass an enemy, and use her ultimate to increase an ally's size, giving them a large HP boost and a slowing aura in the process.
Lulu's alternate skins include [[CrapsaccharineWorld Bittersweet Lulu]] and [[DarkMagicalGirl Wicked Lulu]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AdultFear: When she first returned from the fae world, she attempted to reconnect with people by luring children into the woods to play games with her, often turning them into flowers or animals with her magic. The children's parents were less than pleased.
* BalefulPolymorph: Her Whimsy spell transforms an enemy champion into a cute little squirrel (changed to a cupcake and a kitten for her other skins).
* CloudCuckooLander
* CuteWitch: She's the first Yordle in the style of Poppy or Tristana in a while, and she's adorable.
* [[EverythingsBetterWithSparkles Everything's Better With Sparkles]]: Glitterlance
* FairyCompanion: Pix
* MakeMyMonsterGrow: Her ult does this with your ''allies''.
* [[MrImagination Miss Imagination]]
* NiceHat: It's enormous.
* OurFairiesAreDifferent
* RapunzelHair: Well, for a yordle.
* RipVanWinkle: While she visited the world of the fae, centuries passed by in the outside world.
* SquishyWizard
* StatusBuff: Whimsy (when cast on an ally) and Wild Growth.
* TastesLikePurple: She quotes the trope verbatim. Several of her lines follow similarly random logic.
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/LuxSquare_4670.png]]
!!Lux the Lady of Luminosity
->''"Her guiding light makes enemies weary, but they should worry most when the light fades."''
-->-- '''Garen'''
Garen's younger sister, Luxanna "Lux" Crownguard was taken from her home to serve in the Demacian military at the age of 13. A magical prodigy with command over the powers of light, Lux has served her nation well even before joining the League, conducting infiltration missions into Noxus territory to steal their secrets; it was on one such mission that she stole the secret of the Dark Binding spell from Noxus' ally Morgana the Fallen Angel and repurposed it for her own ends.
Lux is a supportive mage-type champion. She can bind up to two enemies in a line, throw her wand like a boomerang to apply a damage shield to herself and allies both ways, create a slowing vortex of light that can be detonated for damage, and fire a rainbow laser with huge range. Her passive is almost identical to Leona's: any of her damaging spells applies an Illumination charge, which can be set off by an attack or her laser to deal additional damage. The difference is that Leona's Sunlight mark has to be set off by an ally, whereas Lux can set off her own. (Incidentally, the two of them work ''really'' well together.)
Lux's alternate skins include Spellthief Lux, [[CuteWitch Sorceress Lux]], Commando Lux and [[TheEmpire Imperial Lux]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AddedAlliterativeAppeal
* AnnoyingLaugh: Spam /l in chat while playing as her. Or don't, you'll probably regret that.
* BadassAdorable: She is a prodigiously powerful magician who acts and sounds like an innocent teenager ([[ChildSoldiers ...in the military]]).
* BadassBookworm: Is well-educated in her background and proves it in-game with a joke line in which she ([[MotorMouth quickly]]) explains a double rainbow, as well as being a very talented student in magic to the point of being considered a prodigy.
* BareYourMidriff: Her Sorceress skin. This was also part of her original character design, but after it received considerable derision from the fanbase she was redesigned.
* BlueEyes: And she definitely sounds pretty damn innocent.
* ChildSoldiers: [[spoiler:An example of [[LightIsNotGood the dark side of Demacia]]; while she is famous for being the youngest solder in the Demacian army, it isn't widely known that she didn't volunteer to join -- her parents decided to give her to the Demacian military, requiring her to be dragged out of her home in tears.]]
* DifficultButAwesome: Much like Ezreal, all her abilities have to be manually aimed. In particular, Light Binding and Prismatic Barrier are incredibly potent if you can land them just right.
** Her passive, which applies a debuff when an enemy is hit with Lux's spells and can be detonated with Lux's basic attack, is particularly difficult to master. Most casters don't usually auto-attack mid-combo, so this is counter-intuitive for most. [[OhCrap It stacks with Lich Bane procs (which do the same thing), and Lux's ult can blow it up as well. This can add 600-1000 damage to the combo.]]
* ExactlyWhatIAimedAt: Her ultimate has an outrageous maximum range, travels through walls and, barring her initial channel, hits instantly. So before you yell at her for missing the enemy right in the middle of a team fight, make sure she didn't just nail the support who just flashed to (apparent) safety.
* {{Expy}}: [[JustifiedTrope Her Light Binding ability was stolen from Morgana's own Dark Binding ability]].
* GameplayAndStorySegregation: According to her background, she can manipulate light to make herself invisible. She can do nothing of the sort in the game.
** Her original design included a spell that could stealth allied units, but it turned out to be so difficult to balance that it was replaced with a simpler shield spell.
* GratuitousGerman: Her ultimate, Finales Funkeln is German for "Final Sparkle."
** Or, as has been pointed out on the forums, "[[DragonBallZ Final Flash]]."
** A big laser called Final '''Spark'''le? [[TouhouProject Hmmm...]]
* InTheNameOfTheMoon: See ShoutOut.
* KamehameHadouken: Her ultimate certainly tips its hat to this trope with her animation of casting it pointing her palms in the direction she's firing (but while holding her staff in both hands). If you watch the animation closely, for a short time she floats and her ''legs'' point in the direction she's firing as well!
* LaserSight: Just before you know you're about to die from final flash. Incidentally, the warning line is much narrower than the actual attack.
* LightIsGood
* LightTheWay: She even says it almost verbatim.
* LongLostRelative: [[spoiler:Of sorts -- she knows who Garen is and what he does, but her League Judgement implies she never seen or spoke to him after enlisting in the Demacian military (or possibly even ever) aside from League broadcasts. In the judgement, she feels the urge to call out to the illusion of Garen.]]
* MagicalGirl: She was created by Japanese designer Shurelia to specifically reflect this archetype.
* MeaningfulName: 'Lux' is 'light' in Latin. It is also a unit used in measuring the brightness and intensity of light.
* MotorMouth: A mild but noticeable example in her in-game lines, especially in one of her joke lines when she explains a double rainbow.
* [[spoiler:ParentalAbandonment: Lux's parents casually gave her over to the Demacian military to serve the state at the age of 13, without showing the slightest signs of regret or reluctance.]]
* [[SensibleHeroesSkimpyVillains Sensible Heroine]]
* ShoutOut: All over the place.
-->[[Series/TheATeam I love it when a plan comes together.]]\\
\\
[[SailorMoon In the name of Demacia, I will punish you!]]\\
\\
Shh! [[MemeticMutation I'm charging my laser!]]\\
\\
[[DragonBallZ With your power level]], I suggest you forfeit instead.\\
\\
[[MemeticMutation Double rainbow? What does it mean?]]
** She also has several references to {{Touhou}}'s Marisa Kirisame, with her ultimate being a play on Marisa's Final Master Spark. Furthermore, Marisa is known to steal other people's spells and refers to herself as just an "ordinary witch." Makes sense, as Shurelia is a big Touhou junkie.
* SquishyWizard: Yes, she has a shield, but it's not really going to save her without backup.
* [[spoiler:StepfordSmiler: She is upbeat and loyal to her city-state... but her judgement reveals her to be having been forcibly given to the Demacian military at her parents' wishes while she was 13. She then says herself she wants to join the League (and thereby serve Demacia) because she has nothing else.]]
* TokenWholesome: Noted by many for being the one of the most sensibly dressed females.
* WaveMotionGun: Her ultimate is the closest thing the game has to one of these.
* AWorldwidePunomenon: A line she may say after being ordered to attack is the modern "Light em' up."
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/MalphiteSquare_1796.png]]
!!Malphite the Shard of the Monolith
->''"Beware, minions of chaos! The Shard of the Monolith has come."''
Malphite is a sentient rock being from another dimension. In his homeworld, all beings are living silicone creatures who live in a utopian society linked by a benevolent hive mind called the Monolith. Malphite was summoned from his home dimension to help bring order to Runeterra, and though dim, he aims to do so.
Malphite is a tank-type champion who gains a stone shield equal to 10% of his total health when he stays out of combat and can shoot a shard of rock to steal movement speed, slam the ground to deal damage in an area and lower enemy attack speed, deal splash damage to nearby enemies with his regular attacks, and rush forward to smash foes in an area, launching them into the air.
Malphite's alternate skins include [[GreenRocks Shamrock Malphite]], Coral Reef Malphite, Marble Malphite, and Obsidian Malphite.
'''Associated tropes:'''
* TheBigGuy
* TheBrute
* DishingOutDirt
* DynamicEntry: His Unstoppable Force sends foes flying!
* FoeTossingCharge
* GreenEyes: Being a sentient rock goes along with the natural magic connotations of the trope.
* HiveMind: What he left behind in his home world.
* MightyGlacier
* SiliconBasedLife
* ShockwaveStomp: Achieved by smashing the floor with his hand, leaving the Riot Games logo in the ground for a few seconds afterward.
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Malzahar_Square_0_4710.png]]
!!Malzahar the Prophet of the Void
->''"The land may melt, the sea may swell, the sky may fall... but they will come!"''
Once a Seer with a powerful gift of foresight, Malzahar's talent worked against him and the calls of the Void led him to the lost city of Icathia. There his visions were replaced with images of the creatures of the Void invading Valoran and overtaking it, images he now works to make reality. Malzahar is a mage-type champion with chaotic and potent spells. He can unleash silencing energy between portals, create a void zone dealing damage based upon enemies' max health level, cast a curse that bounces to nearby enemies and restores some of his mana when the target dies, and paralyze a foe in a deadly beam. He also has the ability to summon Voidlings, little spider creatures, as temporary minions after casting four abilities.
Malzhar's alternate skins include [[PrinceOfPersia Shadow Prince Malzhar, Vizier Malzahar]], [[ArabianNightsDays Djinn Malzahar]], and Overlord Malzahar.
'''Associated tropes:'''
* BlueEyes
** GlowingEyesOfDoom: And trust us, beware him.
* CompletelyMissingThePoint: He refers to Kassadin as "Enlightened Walker of the Path" and tried to get him to join his Void Cult. He did this by kidnapping Kassadin's daughter and sacrificing her to the Void. Since then they've established a pretty strong rivalry.
* DemonicInvaders: His voidlings seem to be this. And that's not even mentioning his ''masters''.
* EyeBeams: His ultimate.
* GameplayAndStorySegregation: Kog'maw is supposedly drawn to Malzahar and aids him in battle, but in-game he's a separate hero. Can be averted if a Kog'maw and Malzahar player are on the same team, but apart from that Kog'maw has little to do with Malzahar in-game.
* GlassCannon
* GoMadFromTheRevelation
* GuardianEntity: It's unclear what Kog'Maw was going to do upon arrival, but he was the first to rush to the scene when Malzahar was fighting Kassadin outside the league.
* TheMinionMaster: Every four spellcasts of his winds up giving birth to a "Voidling", a small, only sort-of controllable pet with a limited lifespan. It starts out pretty ineffectual, but as its lifespan runs down, it gradually becomes much more dangerous, [[TurnsRed doubling in size, gaining half again their attack and armor values, and then gaining twice the attack speed]], in that order. Under ideal circumstances, he can have two at the same time.
* HumanoidAbomination: Has more or less become one.
* PowerEchoes
* PowerFloats
* PsychicDreamsForEveryone
* PunctuationShaker: He was originally "Mal'Zahar", presumably to keep with the other Void dwellers, but his name changed before release.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld
* TheRival: To Kassadin.
* StopHelpingMe: Their actual damage utility aside, to say that his pet voidlings have gotten Malzahar players into trouble before would be an understatement.
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/MaokaiSquare_3988.png]]
!!Maokai the Twisted Treant
->''"I will use this power until I am free of it."''
Once an oak on the Twisted Treeline battlefield, Maokai was animated by the chaotic magic in the land. He allowed himself to be summoned by the League in return for their researching a way to remove his sentience. But in the meantime, magekind is waiting to be punished.
Maokai is a tank-type champion with a mix of protective and disruptive abilities. He can knockback nearby foes into a slowing shockwave, turn into a spore cloud and root enemies, throw saplings that serve as both as vision-granting wards and walking landmines, and create a storm of whirling wood to block damage to his allies and unleash it back on foes. His passive absorbs the energy of nearby spellcasts into his sap, which provides a healing effect on his next attack when he stacks enough.
Maokai's alternate skins include Charred Maokai, Totemic Maokai and [[ChristmasTropes Festive Maokai]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* TheBeastmaster: Summons saplings which explode toward nearby enemies, or can be used to just temporarily keep watch over an area for Maokai and his team.
* BloodMagic: Implied in his Judgement that his saplings are birthed from of the dead.
* CounterAttack: His Vengeful Maelstrom ability reduces non-turret damage taken for him and his allies when they stay within its circle. When the effect ends, the ability damages enemies within the circle. It does extra damage for every point of damage absorbed, up to a limit.
* CursedWithAwesome: He hates mages and everything they've done, including and especially bringing him to life.
* DeathSeeker: Though more looking for a way to [[IncrediblyLamePun return to his roots]], so to speak.
* {{Expy}}: The saplings look and move quite a lot like {{Pikmin}}.
* GreenThumb: Can summon saplings, temporarily literally root an enemy in place, and his ultimate is stated to be "a great vortex of natural energy."
* GlowingEyesOfDoom
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: His first victims in his new life: the champions fighting on the Treeline at the time. He nearly took his fury out on the summoners and spectators as well, but fortunately Kayle was on the scene to cast her ultimate... [[GameplayAndStorySegregation on an entire crowd at once]]!
* SignificantAnagram: What Maokai himself might state -- I am Oak.
* SpiritualSuccessor: To the Plant King champion, who didn't make the final cut.
* WhenTreesAttack: He also takes hits like a tree.

!!Master Yi the Wuju Bladesman
->''"The art of Wuju lives on in Master Yi, and is plunged through the hearts of his foes."''
-->-- '''Soraka'''
Old lore: A wise old martial artist who has kept himself in his 30's for 1000 years via careful application of ki. He's an assassin that strikes quickly and moves so fast that he appears to teleport. Too bad he takes hits like an 1000-year old man.
New lore: A mystic warrior and keeper of the ancient art of Wuju hailing from Ionia, his village helping exhalt its traditions as well. When Noxus invaded the isle of Ionia, Yi went to met them on the fields of battle... but Noxus took the opportunity to test the latest invention of Singed on his village in his absence. Master Yi will not speak of what was done to his village, but he joined the League to avenge his kin and eventually end the evils of Noxus.
Master Yi is a melee DPS-type champion who can strike twice every seventh attack. His skills include a teleport-slash in a straight line, a passive boost to his attack damage that can be temporarily doubled, a health-restoring trance, and a self-buff that ups his movement- and attack-speed and makes him immune to slowing effects.
Master Yi's alternate skins include [[PaintItBlack Assassin Master Yi]], Ionia Master Yi, [[StarWars Chosen Master Yi]], [[{{Samurai}} Samurai Yi]] and [[{{Predator}} Headhunter Master Yi]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* BoringButPractical: Most Yi players will just run up and stab you to death. It works.
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: In his old lore, not explicit by any means in his new lore.
* DifficultButAwesome: Yi has an Ability Power-based build that reduces his DPS in exchange for a few gimmicky but effective ([[RuleOfFun and entertaining]] tricks.
* TheFaceless: He's never been seen in official artwork without his nifty helmet/visor, which completely covers everything from his eyes up.
* FanNickname: His sword (in the Chosen Yi skin) is referred to as "popsicle."
** He is also called "Master Right Click".
* FlashStep
* FragileSpeedster[=/=]GlassCannon
* GogglesDoNothing: "The Seven Lenses of Insight" actually allow him to see beyond the range of normal human vision, [[GameplayAndSTorySegregation not that it affects gameplay in any way]].
* GoryDiscretionShot: Of sorts -- whatever Singed's invention did to Yi's village, we are never told.
* HeroicBSOD: In his updated lore, Yi fell into one of these for years after his village was destroyed, dedicating himself to training and only prevented from going on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge because he was the LastOfHisKind.
* KatanasAreJustBetter: His Sword is about as close to a Katana as you could get.
** Made more so apparent in his [[http://clgaming.net/images/news/jarvan/MasterYi_Splash_4.jpg Samurai Yi Skin]]
* LastOfHisKind: As the last master of the Wuju Style, he has sworn to keep it alive. To accomplish this, he took Wukong, the Monkey King as his pupil and made him promise that he would someday take on a student of his own to pass on their craft.
* OlderThanTheyLook: In his old lore. The new lore for him does not indicate his age.
* {{Revenge}}: His updated lore states this is the reason he joined the League -- to get vengeance on Noxus for the massacre of his village.
* ShoutOut: He has a skin that makes him look like a [[StarWars Jedi]], complete with [[LaserBlade lightsaber]] in place of his normal sword.
* SkillGateCharacter: He teaches other teams to avoid backdooring, as Master Yi is one of the best champions to do this with.
* AWorldwidePunomenon:

Her mother killed by a pirate (so she naturally distrusts them), she joined the League to help her toward uniting Bilgewater and finding her mother's killer. Miss Fortune is a ranged DPS-type champion who can fire a shot that bounces to a target behind it, rain down a hail of bullets that slow enemies in a small area, passively stack bonus damage on successive shots, increase her attack speed and apply a healing reduction on her targets, and shoot a storm of bullets directly in front of her. Her passive increases her movement speed as long as she remains out of combat.

* MoreDakka
* NamesTheSame: [[SkullGirls I thought MsFortune was a catgirl in a newer fighting game.]]
* OlderThanTheyLook: Her biography states that she managed to flirt and shoot her way through Bilgewater, only obtaining her ship at the age of sixteen.

While the time after she got her ship and joined the League is unknown, some of the fanbase assumes she's still not 'legal'.

An entity of death and disease in a heavily spiked outfit that commands a legion of the dead, diseased, and dying. Mordekaiser is a tanky mage-type champion who [[CastFromHitPoints uses health as a resource]] to cast his spells. He can empower his attack to lash out at multiple targets, form a cloud of shrapnel around himself or an ally that defends them and damages nearby enemies, siphon destructive force in a cone, and place a damaging curse on enemy champions that, if they die while under its effects, turns them into a ghostly slave that Mordekaiser can command against their former allies. A portion of his damage dealt through spells is converted into "[[DeflectorShields shield points]]," giving him bonus health that depletes over time.

!!Morgana the Fallen Angel
->''"There is no rest while Kayle's brand of tyranny still exists."''
There is a world far away where an ancient conflict still rages, a war split families. Morgana was Kayle's younger sister, long ago any filial connection between them. Kayle and her "angels" had fought for order, not seeing the "bigger picture," Morgana fought against what she saw as their tyranny, and so was branded fallen. One day as they were locked in what might have been their final conflict, they were summoned to Valoran. Morgana now fights with the final goal of ending her sister, once and for all.
Morgana is a mage-type champion who can cast a snaring ball of energy, curse an area to damage and lower the defenses of enemies, cast a magic-nullifying shield on herself or an ally, and release slowing bonds on nearby enemy champions that do extra damage and stun them if they stay in range. She passively restores health based on how much magic damage she does to her enemies.
Morgana's alternate skins include [[RainOfBlood Exiled Morgana]], [[LethalChef Sinful Succulence Morgana]], and [[{{Starcraft}} Blade Mistress Morgana]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AmericanKirbyIsHardcore: Chinese Morgana Is Scarier. Compare her [[http://gamersyndrome.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/morgana-splash.png old art]] to [[http://a.imageshack.us/img180/3821/fallenangelsplash0.jpg THIS.]]
* BlackMagicianGirl
* CainAndAbel: With Kayle.
* DarkChick
* DarkIsNotEvil: Possibly. She certainly thinks so, at the least.
* FallenAngel: [[CaptainObvious No shit.]]
* GlacierWaif: Looks tiny and frail, can take a massive beating and still fare quite well.
** Between her ability to [[OurVampiresAreDifferent drain life]] with any of her spells, a long ranged area effect spell that kills lane minions from a distance, her immunity to disables when Black Shield is up and her two separate disables, she is almost impossible to gank or force out of her lane. To compensate, she is one of the slowest characters and has very limited offensive reach.
* ImplacableMan: Morg is LoL's most infamous immoveable object; unless you counterpick her (which is not easy considering how she's strictly a counterpick in the first place), you will NOT be able to dislodge her from mid or top no matter how hard you try. Go ahead, do whatever you think will work - it's just not gonna happen.
* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: There's implications that she's done this in her background -- she started off helping the Chaos side of OrderVersusChaos with the reasonable justification that their enemies wanted to such order and safety at the cost of freedom and the individual...but by the time she was deemed as "fallen", she was said to be "not innocent", having used forgotten and forbidden ways to obsessively become more powerful to defeat her sister. However, it's not stated what horribleness she's done for her magic if any, and her goal of defeating Kayle to win the war for the chaotic side still remains.
* NonIndicativeName: Her Black Shield ability is... blue on the target. Presumedly, it's named as in "Black Magic Shield" and trying to avoid being long-winded.
* OurAngelsAreDifferent: As well as the general background differences noted in Kayle's entry, Morgana shows that when they [[FallenAngel "fall"]] they fall ''hard'' -- apart from what her dark magic has done to [[PointyEars her ears]], her skin has turned a pasty grayish colour and her wings have either been severely burned or have rotted while still attached to her, preventing her from flying. Despite this, she's still hot somehow.
* PointyEars: A result from her strong use of magic.
* PurpleEyes: Is pretty mysterious and powerful with her FallenAngel vibe and dark magics.
** GlowingEyesOfDoom
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: See Kayle's entry; although Morgana is explicitly younger than her, she's still undoubtably many thousands of years old.
* RivalTurnedEvil
* SquishyWizard: Averted. Morgana is actually one of the bulkiest mages in the game and can substitute quite well for a tank.
* StoneWall: Morg is banned left and right not because of her offensive ability (she CAN lay down a ton of pain, but it's very situational and will not happen very often at all), but because unless counterpicked, she is absolutely impossible to force out of lane. You can try and budge her, but she'll just shrug it off and go back to farming like nothing happened. Hell, even ganking her usually fails because she'll just toss down her ult and blast you with her combo, which really, really hurts to the point where you might actually die.
* {{Stripperiffic}}: Her outfit is more or less a long skirt and a bra. The way she takes hits, you'd think that's a Kevlar Wonderbra she's got on.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Compared to Kayle, she's a more girly girl -- Morgana exclusively uses spells and wears, y'know, [[{{Stripperiffic}} that outfit]].
* VillainsOutShopping: When she's not inflicting pain on her opponents in the Fields of Justice, Morgana runs a chain of bakeries called 'Sinful Succulence'.
** SupremeChef: Unlike what her appropriate skin [[LethalChef suggests]], the Journal of Justice claims her baking is excellent and she vaguely alludes to enjoying it (while swearing about her sister in the same breath, natch).
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/NasusSquare_2461.png]]
!!Nasus the Curator of the Sands
->''"The Keeper of the Sands, though contemplative, is not to be trifled with."''
Nasus is a librarian from another dimension where mankind is protected by a race of animal-headed men in the vein of the Egyptian pantheon. Nasus was also a soldier bent on fighting his totalitarian, crocodile-headed brother Renekton, but was summoned to Runeterra before he could finish him off. He agreed to help protect Runeterra from the forces that were poised to tear it apart, seeing them as no less threatening to innocent lives as the war he left behind.
Nasus is a fighter-type champion who can empower his next attack with a spell that grows stronger every time it deals a killing blow, summon an armor-melting circle of flames, age an opponent to slow them, and engage his ultimate to become an avatar of death, draining health from nearby enemies and turning that into attack damage. His passive grants him natural lifesteal on his attacks, returning a portion of the damage as health.
Nasus's alternate skins include [[StarGate Galactic Nasus]], Pharaoh Nasus, [[FallenHero Dreadknight Nasus]], and Riot K-9 Nasus.
'''Associated tropes:'''
* {{Archnemesis}}: To Renekton, and vice-versa.
* AwesomeYetImpractical: Nasus dominates the game if the enemy team lets him free farm. If the enemy is aware of this, they will never let you farm up that much and you will be a liability to your team.
* BadassBookworm
* BadassCreed: Like 90% of his lines.
--> ''"Life is part of a cycle; yours is over."''
--> ''"Anthropomancy. Divination by entrails."''
* BadPowersGoodPeople: Come on, Nasus can not only drain life, he can cause his target to age much faster! His passive is called "Soul Eater", his Spirit Fire is described to "desecrate the earth" and his ultimate, "Fury of the Sands" used to be called "Avatar of Death".
* CainAndAbel: Nasus versus Renekton.
* CulturedWarrior
* DarkIsNotEvil: In the season one trailer, he appears as a largely inarticulate monster, working with the likes of [[EldritchAbomination Cho'gath]] and [[CompleteMonster Warwick]]. He is huge, menacing, and constantly rambles on about death in a deep, booming voice. He is also a truly noble creature, a gentleman and a scholar.
* DishingOutDirt: Well, sand.
* EgyptianMythology
* EvolvingAttack: His "Siphoning Strike" ability, which gains bonus damage every time you lasthit with it. Once you put a few skill points in it, it's quite easy to power it up several times per creep wave... if you're free to concentrate on the timing, which is unlikely in a game where {{griefing}} enemy players is a key tactic. After the laning phase breaks down, you can steal away and farm in peace... but [[IneffectualLoner it's dangerous to go alone]].
* HotSkittyOnWailordAction: Nasus looks like Anubis (jackal), and Renekton looks like Sobek (crocodile). One can only wonder what their parents looked like.
* MagikarpPower: In the early game, Nasus is quite an easy target, but "Siphoning Strike" can hit like a train in the late game. The number one rule of fighting against Nasus is "''Do. Not. Let. Him. Free. Farm''" or he will turn those 200 creep kills into a staff-whack that removes half of your health.
* TheMario: Does a bit of everything.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: [[AvertedTrope But he's a good guy.]]
** GlowingEyesOfDoom: Same as above.
* TranquilFury
* WarriorPoet
-->''"Your legacy shall drift away, blown into eternity like the sands of the desert."''
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/NautilusSquare_7264.png]]
!!Nautilus the Titan of the Depths
->''"When lost in utter darkness, there is nothing left but forward."''
Once a sailor commissioned by the Institute of War to explore the unexplored seas, Nautilus was abandoned at sea while he was dragged down into the depths by an unseen force, grabbing the ship's anchor as he sank. When he awoke again, he found that his diver's suit had merged with his body, and his memories were fuzzy at best. With nothing to go on but the anchor, he trudged through the depths of the ocean until he reached Bilgewater, whereupon he was directed to the Institute of War. He joined the League so that he could discover and punish those responsible for a lifetime lost.
Nautilus is a tank-type champion whose first attack on a target deals extra damage and roots them in place briefly. He can throw his anchor, pulling himself and an enemy towards each other if it hits a target or pulling himself forward if it hits terrain, put up a health shield that causes his attacks to deal splash damage, release three slowing rings of explosives that expand outward to slow fleeing foes, and release an accelerating shockwave that knocks enemies back on its way to its target where it explodes with greater force.
Nautilus' alternate skins include [[{{Warhammer40k}} Abyssal Nautilus]] and [[TunnelKing Subterranean Nautilus]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AnchorsAway: Nautilus is armed with the anchor of the ship aboard which he served. He grabbed it as he was being dragged to the sea floor.
* DarkIsEvil: Whatever grabbed Nautilus came from a black ooze in the section of the ocean.
* {{Determinator}}: Despite having incredibly hazy memories, and being weighed down by an impossibly heavy diver's suit-anchor combo, Nautilus woke up after death and walked across the sea floor for who knows how long, in utter blackness and loneliness, in order to find the people who decided he was better off dead.
* GameplayAndStoryIntegration: Nautilus in his suit is so lumbering, he couldn't swim back to shore. As a result, his movement speed is tied for the slowest in the game where every melee champion move faster than him, leaving him reliant on using his anchor through his Dredge Line ability for mobility.
* [[GrapplingHookPistol Grappling Hook Anchor]]: His Dredge Line ability uses his anchor for this, capable even of dragging Nautilus to terrain, turrets, and walls.
* HooksAndCrooks: He uses his anchor as a very effective grappling hook to overcome his lumbering speed.
* LeftForDead: His backstory made concise.
* MightyGlacier: A very dedicated tanking character with large amounts of disruption and a respectable damage output, but has the lowest possible base movement speed, a trait usually reserved for ranged characters.
* PowerGlows: His Titan's Wrath ability, causing his anchor to glow red, and his eyes glow even brighter.
* OceanMadness: Sort of. By the time Nautilus got back to land, he no longer remembered much of the details of his life.
* RedEyesTakeWarning
** GlowingEyesOfDoom: This can be justified as being the lights of his diver's suit.
*** Taken to a logical conclusion with his Titan's Wrath ability, causing his eyes to glow ''even brighter'' while it lasts.
* {{Revenge}}: His reason for being in the League is basically to take revenge on those responsible for his lost life and time. Hell, this may even be [[ThePowerOfHate the reason he's alive in the first place!]]
* ShockwaveStomp: His Riptide ability. The waves that fan out can hit his enemies twice, meaning it may be better to hold your ground against Nautilus. Or... you're in a MortonsFork situation.
* ShoutOut: The resemblance to the [[{{Bioshock}} Big Daddy]] has not gone unnoticed.
** The Abyssal skin for Nautilus quite uses patterns and colours similar to [[{{Warhammer40000}} the Black Legion Chaos Space Marines]].
* StoneWall: Well he is a tank, after all.
* StuffBlowingUp: His ultimate is Depth Charge, blowing up upon impact with its main target and causing them to fly up into the air.
* TunnelKing: Subterranean Nautilus
* WalkDontSwim: His diver's suit was so heavy that he had to trudge along the ocean floor all the way to land.
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/NidaleeSquare_6590.png]]
!!Nidalee the Bestial Huntress
->''"Nidalee was taught to fight by her feline family, battling viciously with tooth and nail. Something in her feline ways may draw you to her, but remember that she is no pussycat."''
A child abandoned in a magical jungle when her treasure hunting parents were struck down, Nidalee was raised by a family of jungle cats. Infused with magic, she can morph into a cougar at will. She joined the League to protect the environment from civilization.
Nidalee is a ranged-DPS/support champion who can morph into a melee fighter-type cougar with bonus defensive stats and movement speed when she casts her ultimate. As a human, she has a long ranged spear throw that gets stronger the further the spear flies, traps that damage and weaken enemies, and a healing spell that also increases attack speed. As a cougar, she can pounce to deal damage where she lands, slash enemies to deal bonus damage that gets stronger the weaker her target is, and slash in an area around her. In both forms she moves faster when she travels through brush.
Nidalee's alternate skins include Leopard Nidalee, Snow Bunny Nidalee, [[FrenchMaid French Maid Nidalee]], Pharaoh Nidalee, and [[HotWitch Bewitching Nidalee]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AllWitchesHaveCats: Her Bewitching skin changes her cougar form into a black cat.
* AmbiguouslyBrown
* BladeOnAStick
* BizarreAndImprobableBallistics: An ability of her's involves throwing a spear, which does more damage based off how far away it is from Nidalee upon impact, seemingly like a gyrojet. That would be bizarre enough - but due to how it's coded, it does just do more damage based off how far away it is from Nidalee upon impact, and thus ''also'' deals more damage from Nidalee just moving back away from the spear and its intended target...
* CatGirl: Well, she doesn't actually have cat ears, but she can turn into a cougar and was raised by cats. It certainly seems this was what the creator(s?) was/were going for.
* CrutchCharacter: Is less powerful endgame than a dedicated support, ranged-DPS, or fighter champion.
* DifficultButAwesome: The above and below claims are somewhat subverted in that during the most recent official tournament game between TSM and CLG (ie: two of the best teams playing LoL), Nidalee was still automatically banned by TSM solely due to CLGs Hotshotgg's fearsome reputation when playing her. She's now almost always the first-pick ban in professional matches.
* {{Fanservice}}: A sexy [[StealthPun cougar]] in a FurBikini whose /dance emote causes her to pole dance on her spear and whose /joke is "Did I mention it's mating season?" And then there's...
* FrenchMaid: A skin for her. '''[[{{Fanservice}} Yes.]]'''
* HelloNurse: Nidalee is apparently very popular with men in-universe, ([[StealthPun especially the younger crowd]]).
* ImpossiblyLowNeckline: Did we mention the {{Fanservice}} already?
* JunglePrincess
* NatureHero
* RaisedByWolves
* StealthPun: She has a hidden passive when [[VoluntaryShapeshifting in cougar form]] that gives a very small amount of exp to any nearby friendly champions lower level than her. [[DontExplainTheJoke Because she's a "cougar".]]
* {{Stripperiffic}}
* VoluntaryShapeshifting
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/NocturneSquare_3847.png]]
!!Nocturne the Eternal Nightmare
->''"The darkness is closing in... it’s pitch black now... but I can still see him..."''
-->-- '''Kelvin Ma''', patient #4236
A creature of darkness and dreams, Nocturne caused insanity and death to the League's summoners before his capture. The League deduced him as an assassin, attacking the mages at their weakest. To that end Nocturne is now a pawn of what he hates most; bound to the will of the summoners he would gladly haunt.
Nocturne is a fighter-type assassin champion who can periodically unleash a whirling lifesteal attack, shoot out dark hands that leave behind trails of darkness that boost his speed, block spells to boost his attack speed, and trap foes in a growing nightmare that causes them to run around in fear if left unbroken. His ultimate blinds the enemy team to one another, allowing Nocturne to pounce to a helpless foe from a huge distance.
Nocturne's alternate skins include [[EvilIsDeathlyCold Frozen Nocturne]], [[PowerOfTheVoid Void Nocturne]], [[SpiderMan Ravager Nocturne]], and [[BedsheetGhost Haunting Nocturne]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AndIMustScream: An odd variation of it; he is chained to the League's will. Literally.
* BerserkButton: Summoners seem to ''really'' piss him off.
* BladeBelowTheShoulder: He has two ''gigantic'' curved blades attached to (growing from?) his forearms.
* DarkIsEvil
* EasterEgg: If Graves uses his Smokescreen ability on Nocturne, Graves says one of two special lines of dialogue.
* EldritchAbomination: He's a dream-born monster who utterly despises all life, ''especially'' Summoners, and wants nothing more than to slaughter everything because it offends him.
* EnemyToAllLivingThings: He REALLY hates Summoners, but life in general is an abomination in his eyes.
* {{Expy}}: Of Spectre from [[DefenseOfTheAncients DotA]], in both looks and abilities (trails of darkness, and materialising behind foes).
** Also shares a team-blinding ultimate with the Dark Lady from ''HeroesOfNewerth''.
** Not to mention, [[{{Pokemon}} Darkrai]]. No seriously. Nightmares anyone?
* GameBreakingBug: His Duskbringer trails count as dying units with large amounts of hitpoints when they expire, making enemy Trundles and Alistars very happy summoners.
* TheDevTeamThinksOfEverything: The first part of his ultimate, Paranoia, actually affects summoners, not the champions themselves, making them distrustful of their fellow summoners around them for a few seconds and literally blinding them with fear. As such, this effect also barely crosses over into ''allied'' summoners, darkening the corners of their screens and providing a very faint laughing sound.
* GlowingEyesOfDoom
* HeroicSacrifice: The summoners who died to Nocturne so the League could capture him.
** Actually, its been strongly implied the "Summoners" were an illusion used to trap him.
* HumansThroughAlienEyes: Nocturne makes it clear that he's an OmnicidalManiac because life as we know it offends and disgusts him.
* LaserGuidedKarma: After delivering eternal nightmares to the summoners for so long, they decided to respond in kind by chaining him to the League to serve the very same summoners for extra poetic justice.
* LightningBruiser: He was designed to be a GlassCannon, but anyone halfway decent with him will build him tanky thanks to Duskbringer's attack boost, which allows you to build a fair amount of defense and still do enormous damage. When built this way, he's nearly impossible to peel off a target or escape from but can also take a good beating and fight off multiple opponents with ease.
* LivingDream: The possibility was mentioned that he is someone's nightmares given physical form.
* OmnicidalManiac: Now that he's been ripped out of the dream world and into the real world, his only desire is to massacre anything and everything he can get to.
* PsychoForHire: Probably the only relief of his slavery; at least he still gets to torture people during matches.
--> "Bring me more fleshbags to slice up!"
* SealedEvilInACan: In a nexus shard. That is, until someone needs him on the Fields of Justice. Once a match is over, back in he goes.
* ShoutOut: His Ravager skin has more than a passing resemblance to [[SpiderMan Carnage]].
** An omnicidal assassin who kills people on their dreams and hates an specific group, which he harassed in the past. Are we talking about Nocturne or Freddy Krueger?
* UnstoppableRage: Considering that he's being held prisoner by the people whom he despises above all others, this is pretty much his only setting.
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/NunuSquare_4305.png]]
!!Nunu the Yeti Rider (and Willump the Yeti)
->''"Imagine what Nunu will be like when he grows up!"''
Lore V1: An Inuit-ish boy who came from a family that rode Yetis, rodeo-style, for fun. After getting hold of the world's largest Yeti, Nunu went a little nuts with power and basically decided to rampage across the planet for fun and profit.
Lore V2: Nunu is a kind girl born with the ability to wield ice magic. She befriended a sick yeti and raised him back to health, and the two have been friends ever since.
Lore V3: Nunu is a orphan raised by yetis, who rides into battle alongside of his adoptive Yeti brother Willump in order to fight for Yeti rights.
Nunu is a fighter-type champion with a wide variety of skills at his disposal, making him very versatile. He can shoot ice-balls that slow enemies, cast a movement and attack-speed buffs on allies that also buffs himself, restore his health by eating minions, and create a blizzard around his body that slows enemies before dealing massive damage. His passive makes his next spell free after a certain number of standard attacks.
Nunu's alternate skins include [[BigfootSasquatchAndYeti Sasquatch Nunu]], [[ChristmasTropes Workshop Nunu]], [[SesameStreet Grungy Nunu]], [[AscendedMeme Nunu Bot]], and Demolisher Nunu.
'''Associated tropes:'''
* BlackMagicianGirl: Arguably, when Nunu was a girl. The yeti takes care of the physical work while she casted spells.
* BigEater
* BigfootSasquatchAndYeti
* ABoyAndHisX: A boy, er, girl, no, boy and his yeti.
* BrownEyes: But Nunu's not the most typical person ever, really, so, AvertedTrope.
** If you are in Runeterra and you don't have glowing eyes, it makes you unusual.
* ChargedAttack: His ultimate is a three second channel, during which nearby enemies are slowed. If you manage to complete the entire channel without getting interrupted, you pretty much win the teamfight by default.
* DifficultButAwesome: His ultimate is an absolute bitch to land, as almost all champions can interrupt casting, and some of those who cannot can escape it in time. When fully channeled, through clever use of brush, proper teamwork and timing it is the absolute most powerful thing in the game.
* EskimoLand
* FanVid: Amazingly, a whole series starring the game's [[ArtificialStupidity Nunu Bot]] and player Angry Goran. Check the first one out [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BoO_O5vHHqg here]]. Also an AscendedMeme: Riot honoured the series with an actual Nunu Bot skin, featuring a robotic yeti that mimics the voice from the series.
* FantasyCounterpartCulture: Inuit but with yeti-riding as a pasttime.
* FlipFlopOfGod: He's a boy. No, a girl. No, a boy!
* JackOfAllStats: In terms of gameplay.
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/OlafSquare_9163.png]]
!!Olaf the Berserker
->''"Beware the war cry of the Berserker. What surges toward you is unyielding, free from the shackles of reason."''
A warrior from the far away realm of Lokfar. He and his crew were in search of a prosperous, new land to plunder for his seafaring people when a storm destroyed his ship and wiped out his crew. He washed up on the shores of Valoran and struck a deal with the mages of the League. He fought for them as they found a way to return him to his home. Olaf kept his true purpose secret, as well as most information about his tribe, otherwise he suspected the mages would dominate his people like they did all of Valoran.
Olaf is a fighter-type champion who can damage and slow enemies in a line by throwing his axe, which can be picked up again to shorten its cooldown, grant himself bonus damage based on maximum health along with lifesteal and spell vamp, land a reckless strike that damages Olaf and the target for a flat amount of health, and make himself immune to disables, reduce all damage taken by a flat amount, and passively grant himself armor penetration for a brief period. His passive increases his attackspeed for every percent of health that he's missing.
Olaf's alternate skins include Forsaken Olaf, Glacial Olaf and [[AscendedMeme Brolaf]].
'''Associated tropes:'''
* ArmorPiercingAttack: Everyone has options for it, but he's pretty much the biggest utilizer of it in the game.
** His Reckless Swing ability does true damage, which is so armor-piercing it deals full damage regardless of enemy defenses, unless they have something that makes them invincible. On a more minor level, his ultimate gives him more armour penetration per level.
* AscendedMeme: Brolaf, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnVLWKsO6CQ now a skin!]]
** Doubles as the ascension of Garen's favorite battle cry. BROMACIA!
* AxeBeforeEntering: His ax-throw usually hits you way before he appears on-screen.
* AnAxeToGrind
* AttackAttackAttack: Due to his passive and buffing ability, the best tactic for surviving a fight with Olaf is to make sure he dies first or ignore him entirely. Going somewhere in between will probably allow him to slaughter you all at some point in the fight.
* BarbarianHero
* TheBerserker: [[CaptainObvious It's his title, if you haven't noticed yet.]]
* TheBladeAlwaysLandsPointyEndIn: His axe when thrown, which being an axe probably makes more sense.
* CastFromHitPoints: His Reckless Swing ability deals equal bonus damage to himself and an enemy. Considering his passive ability, this can be a ''good'' thing.
* ICanStillFight: Normally, players are below half their maximum health would retreat to heal up. When Olaf's below half health, he's [[LetsGetDangerous just getting started]].
* ImplacableMan: His ultimate works well to making him this, making him immune to crowd-control effects and reducing damage taken.
* MagikarpPower: At lower levels, the vast majority of ranged champions easily handle him on a one-vs-one basis, and his jungling is fairly risky since utilizing his potential to the fullest requires him to be constantly low on health and easily killed by an enemy champion plundering in on him. In a teamfight late-game with Olaf's build complete and his allies with him to stop the enemy from simply backing away, Olaf is a MightyGlacier with very few drawbacks of the "glacier" aspect being apparent.
* OneManArmy: Get him to level eighteen and give him his core items, and congrats, he's more a force of nature than a champion.
* {{Plunder}}: His motivation that ended up getting him stuck in Valoran.
-->"To plunder!"
* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: A viking. He really doesn't trust the summoners.
* ScreamingWarrior: When he activates his buffing abilities. This is a good sign to his enemies to watch out.
* ShockAndAwe: Mildly; his Reckless Swing ability hits the target with a lightning bolt.
* UnstoppableRage: Get him to half health and watch him pop his ultimate. If he's not on your side, you best start running.
* ViolationOfCommonSense: Remember CriticalExistenceFailure especially applies to Olaf when using him.
* WhosLaughingNow: Most Olaf players will let you get them to at least half health before they chop you to pieces.
* YourMom: From the Brolaf skin:
-->"I'm [[GameBreaker OP]]? Your mom is OP!"
[[quoteright:120:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/OriannaSquare_9909.png]]
!!Orianna the Lady of Clockwork
->''"Dance with me, my pet. Dance with me into oblivion."''
Orianna Reveck was a young girl who loved dancing and the League of Legends. She trained to achieve her goal of one day becoming a champion in the League but died in a tragic accident. Her father, a brilliant scientist from Piltover, built a new Orianna -- a powerful android that could fulfill her dream of being a champion, along with a mechanical sphere to protect her from dying again. Orianna is not quite human but is desperate to fulfill the wishes of her father and predecessor.
Orianna is a unique mage-type champion whose abilities are all based around her floating ball. The Ball can fly to a target location, dealing damage to any enemies it hits along the way, emit an electronic field that damages and slows enemies and boosts allies, attach to Orianna or her allies to boost their defenses and give them a temporary shield, or damage and knock enemies around with a blast of electricity. For her passive, Orianna's basic attacks deal additional damage that increases with each consecutive strike on the same enemy.
Orianna's alternate skins include Gothic Orianna, [[CreepyDoll Sewn Chaos Orianna]] and Bladecraft Orianna.
'''Associated tropes:'''
* AttackDrone: The Ball.
* BondCreatures: The Ball
* ClockworkCreature
* CompanionCube: Her ball, and to a lesser extent herself.
* DanceBattler: Not in a typical sense though. Orianna does the dancing while the Ball does the fighting.
* DifficultButAwesome: All of her abilities are centered on the ball, not Orianna herself, and on top of that her basic attacks deal more damage the more she attacks the same opponent. In order to be succesful with her you need to micro around your ball to a good position for her skills, [[GlassCannon stay out of enemy range]], target the weakest opponent and be able to tell when activating your ball's abilities are going to help or hamper your team. In the hands of someone who's good with her, however, she's arguably the best character in the game.
** Mastering when to use her abilities is crucial to success at her. Used in the right place, the slow/speedup can save yourself and teammates from a gank, and a combo of the slow and the character-moving ulti can actually do enough damage to kill them. However, both have a smaller area of effect than you might think; miss one or put it in the wrong place, and you'll end up dead. Using the shield (which puts the Ball on an allied champion) can also change fights: you can shield a hurting ally, or you can put in on an initiator who can hop on the enemy, just to list two examples.
** Her Ball teleports back to her if she gets too far away. If you were just about to activate your ultimate, you now look like a [[{{Noob}} complete idiot]].
* {{Expy}}: The mechanical distortion in her voice makes her sound like a character from ''Videogame/{{Portal}}''; either [=GLaDOS=] or the Military Android Turrets.
** The characteristic of her skills emanating from the Ball was supposedly inspired by [[TouhouProject Youmu Konpaku]].
* EyelessFace: Her Sewn Chaos Orianna skin has X's sewn over the eyes.
* ImprobableWeaponUser
* MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter
* MagikarpPower: Her autoattack passive is mostly ineffectual early game, but its bonus damage increases sixfold from levelling up (on top of the actual autoattack damage itself), and it ''also'' scales with the help Ability Power items.
* PlanarShockwave: Her ultimate ability causes The Ball to emit a shockwave that pulls enemies towards it.
* RobotBuddy: The Ball
* RobotGirl
* ReplacementGoldfish: She, rather off-puttingly, insists that she ''is'' the original Orianna, and gives no indication that she realizes she isn't normal in the first place.
* ShoutOut: Her quote, shown above, is a blatant reference to a [[MemeticMutation popular line]] from ''InvaderZim''.
** Her joke in game is a reference to [[RobotGirl Aigis]] from ''{{Persona 3}}''.
* SwissArmyWeapon: That is one useful ball.
* UncannyValley: In-universe, people find her empty imitation of life to be very unnerving. During her League Judgment, she casually performs blatantly inhuman actions, such as keeping her head locked on to the summoner speaking to her while her body contorts in physically impossible positions to wind her key. The observation noted that, while she is far more human looking than Blitzcrank (who's basically a big lumpy man-shaped robot), she looks far less ''alive.'' Her delighted squeal of glee on being accepted as a champion is described as "horrifying".
