Pentakill - finally with a lead singer!

While Mordekaiser and Sona have been long known members of League of Legends might rock band Pentakill you may not have known about the bands front man, Amumu. It seems that the band found the little mummy  rocking out in Asia over the winter break and have now signed him to be bands lead singer and all around bad ass. Rock on Pentakill!

Irelia Concept Art Custom Wallpaper

I always thought the Irelia concept art needed more than the plain grey background it came with so I came up with more suiting background for it. Irelia always seemed to be of an Asian decent so I ran with that, hopefully the effect works well.

Renekton - The Butcher of the Sands

On a faraway world, Renekton was born a member of a race of bestial guardians created to serve as the rulers and protectors of their people. Alongside his brother Nasus, Renekton oversaw the upkeep of the Great Library, which served as both a vault of ancient knowledge and the repository of the teachings of the Cycle of Life and Death. While Nasus taught those scholars who came to study, Renekton served as the Great Library’s gatekeeper. He could sense the true natures of those who sought Nasus’ teachings, and he sent away those with dark ambitions. Over time, however, his repeated exposure to this evil infected his mind. He grew furious with the malevolence in the hearts of men, and as he descended deeper into madness, he discovered he could quell the fury by cutting the evil from the men who possessed it. Unfortunately, the relief was as short-lived as the subjects, and the “butcher’s rage”, as it came to be known, would resurge ever stronger.

Consumed by his anger, Renekton turned on the one being who could defeat him -- his own brother. Nasus pleaded with Renekton to see reason. Realizing that he was beyond redemption, the despondent Nasus valiantly struck down his wayward sibling. Defenseless, Renekton waited eagerly for death’s release. It never came. He was spared when summoners from the League of Legends claimed his brother. Caught in the wake of this powerful spell, Renekton tumbled for what seemed like ages between realities. When he finally emerged, he was deep in the sewers of Zaun. Insane with fury, Renekton languished in his newfound home, driven senseless by his rage. That is until, by happenstance, he caught a familiar scent on the air. Believing that the familiar scent would guide him to the solace which was fading from his memory, he traced his brother to the Institute of War.

“My brother has become hollow. Full of rage, but empty.” –Nasus, the Curator of the Sands

This is a cut out of Renekton's base wallpaper. I may end up doing one of the other ones at a latter time.

Here is Renekton's Champion Spotlight showcasing his unique abilities.

My EpiK LoL Wallpaper

Placing 197 separate images into one massive image was a fairly big under taking but I think I managed it fairly well. I tried very hard to minimize the amount of overlapping. Could not decide on a background that I liked so I did three, one black, one white and one using the parchment image from pvp.net.

This image contains all champions up to and including Cassiopeia.

Possible Magma Chamber Art

I hesitate to post this as "news" as this is in no way official, however the art itself is quite nice and definately has the look and feel of League of Legends.

I will update this post once I have seen official confirmation.

-edit- This has been confirmed as concept art from Riot released to some European sites, Pendragon confirms it on the NA forums here;

Caitlyn - The Sheriff of Piltover

One of the reasons Piltover is known as the City of Progress is because it has an extraordinarily low crime rate. This hasn't always been the case; brigands and thieves of all sorts used to find the city-state an ideal mark for plunder, primarily due to the valuable resources it imports to fuel its techmaturgical research. Some even theorize that it would have fallen long ago to the chaos of organized crime if not for Caitlyn, the Sheriff of Piltover. Born the daughter of a wealthy statesman and a pioneering hextech researcher, Caitlyn discovered her natural gift for investigation when, at age 14, her father was assaulted and robbed on his way home. She snuck out of her house that night with her father's rifle and tracked down the muggers from the crime scene. At first, her parents did their best to discourage her from such risky hobbies, but she was incorrigible. Wishing to protect her daughter in the only way she knew how, Caitlyn's mother began outfitting her with techmaturgical devices tailored to her sleuthing needs.

Caitlyn quickly gained notoriety, both because she was singlehandedly defeating crime in Piltover and also because she soon developed into a ravishing beauty. She never backed down from a case or a challenge, and she was one of the sharpest shots in the city-state. Her services were soon requested by Demacia to help track down a mysterious outlaw who had begun committing high-profile heists. The bandit, who always left a card with an ornate "C" at the scene of the crime, became Caitlyn's arch-nemesis. To this day, Caitlyn still searches for this cat burglar, and the chase has led her all across Valoran. She has joined the League to hone her skills and gain the influence necessary to track down the only quarry that has managed to evade her.


"Go ahead, run. I'll give you a five minute head start." -Caitlyn, from her book Willing Apprehension
