She shuddered in disgust, feeling betrayed that the man she had trusted to kill the world’s happiness had, in fact, been seeking it himself. The two became fast allies and set out to turn the entire world into a harrowed wasteland.īefore Viego’s vision could be fully realized, Vex discovered his ulterior motive: to reclaim the soul of his dead queen Isolde, and reunite with her in matrimonial bliss. Vex, in turn, was inspired by his vision for a world covered in Black Mist. Upon meeting Vex, Viego realized the yordle had a unique ability to spread despair, making people more vulnerable to his Harrowing. Her question was soon answered when the Ruined King, Viego, appeared in the Isles, seeking to spread his Mist to all corners of Runeterra. “Who made this wonderfully awful place?” she wondered. Vex could now spread her misery far and wide. Her shadow had taken on a new ghostly persona-much more lively and expressive than its host-and her benign yordle magic had transformed into something far more sinister. ![]() Here, she could finally sulk, unbothered by the laughter and merriment of others.Īs the days passed, Vex realized the Black Mist was having a strange effect on her. Vast tracts of land and sea, devoid of all life and color, stretched out before her. When she arrived in the Shadow Isles, Vex couldn’t believe her eyes. While most yordles fought valiantly to beat back the Mist, Vex was intrigued by the foul miasma and began to follow it to its source. That something arrived in the form of a Harrowing, thick clouds of Black Mist that billowed through Bandle City, stirring its residents to panic. She learned to entertain herself with the shadow, performing gloomy pantomimes for her own amusement.Īlas, it was just a shadow, incapable of shielding Vex from the loathsome cheerfulness that surrounded her. It was black (her favorite color), and it didn’t talk-the perfect companion for the sullen youth. There, she found an unlikely soulmate in her own shadow. Despite the best efforts of her parents, she never seemed to find her “yordle spirit” or any like-minded friends, and chose to spend most of her time sulking in her room. ![]() The whimsy and color of the yordle realm was cloying to her. Growing up in Bandle City, Vex never felt she belonged. Though she lacks ambition, she is quick to strike down color and happiness, stopping all would-be interlopers with her magical malaise. With an endless supply of teen angst and a powerful shadow in tow, Vex lives in her own self-made slice of gloom, far from the revolting cheer of the “normie” world. In the black heart of the Shadow Isles, a lone yordle trudges through the spectral fog, content in its murky misery.
