@DnDBeyond: We recently released 'Legends of Runeterra' unofficial content on DDB, and we are thrilled with the enthusiastic response we…

"Though they’re most often considered ‘cute and fuzzy,’ some yordles prefer ‘swift and deadly.' The Fae Bladetwirler uses her small size and swift movements to take advantage of any hesitation from her opponents. Her extra-fluffy tail helps balance her for acrobatic swipes!"

"Yordles accustomed to the magic of Bandle City, like Greenglade Lookout, find themselves right at home in the Ionian wilderness, where they can choose to hide themselves away or live among humans as the mood suits them."

"Eye of the Dragon was designed to show an old soul in a young body. Confident beyond her years, she doesn’t need to yell to make herself heard. Each unit in Lee Sin’s group has trained their senses through different means - she’s trained to perceive Ionia’s currents of magic."

"With Greenglade Caretaker we tried exploring a character who felt like she is both a gentle soul (a creature with faun/gazelle aspects) who is 'one with the land' but also one who will leap into action to defend her home (horns, knives, and acrobatics)."

Today we venture to Ionia to take a look at some of the characters Senior Concept Artist @denwhat_ designed for the region.

Ionia is a place of mystery and magic, so we wanted to create characters who thrive in that exotic environment.

“We see this reflected in Tianna’s full card art. She's stern, armored, and standing in front of traditional artwork, in contrast to the timid, conflicted Lux before her, again serving to highlight the very real tension between historic Demacian ideals and forbidden magic use.”

“To play up the tension between traditional Demacia vs forbidden magic use, we wanted a powerful presence for Tianna in contrast to Lux. Tianna is all about straightforward military power, a sense of tradition that you can feel in her armor and the way that she carries herself.”

“The target was to go for a more youthful appearance for Lux that also reflected the proud Crownguard military tradition. Lux might not use the same weapons as others in her family, but she has the same strong sense of justice and is more than able to defend herself.”

“We wanted to make Garen appear more serious and polished, but still retain his bulky nature. We also updated the shape language for the Crownguards (the bird-like shapes on the pauldrons) so that we could echo that shape for other Crownguard characters like aunt Tianna.”

Den took on the task of realizing the Demacian military family with updated champion visuals and mighty shoulder pauldrons!
