LeBlanc/Trivia

General

• LeBlanc's loading screen and in-game icon are the first to not focus the actual champion (they focus her  Mimic)
•  Mimic used to be the only ability (currently  Relentless Pursuit) that ended up costing 0 mana when fully-ranked.
• LeBlanc,  Shaco, and  Wukong are the only champions with more than one texture per skin (one for themselves and one for the clone spawned by  Shadow of the Rose,  Hallucinate, or  Decoy).
• Her surname Le Blanc is French for "the white" and is grammatically masculine; this might be referencing Sophie Germain's alias, due to most contemporary mathemathicians' prejudice against women.
• Her adopted name Emilia is feminine for Aemilius, from aemulus ('rival'), from PIE root *h₂eym- "to copy", which also gave imago, maybe alluding to the Black Rose's Matron's talent for mimicry or that each successor matron imitates her predecessor.
• Her given name Evaine has unclear origins, whether Hebrew, Greek, or Celtic;
  • Since her namesake is Evaine, a Celtic noble lady, i.e. Lancelot's maternal aunt, the Proto-Celtic form might have been *Iwo-gena "yew-born" or *Esu-gena "well-born" (cf. Evan, Eógan).
• The Black Rose might have been inspired by and/or might be referencing the Black Hand.

Quotes

• "For my next trick, I'll make their life bar disappear" resembles  "For my next trick , I'll make you disappear" and references stage magic, Kefka from Final Fantasy VI, and/or  Mimic's leaked pre-release version (self and allied health bars are invisible to enemies)
• "Classic misdirection" and "Lying is, like, ninety-five percent of what I do" might be referencing Archer.
• "Surprised to see me?" might be referencing Agent Smith from The Matrix Reloaded.
• "Would I lie?" might be referencing Spaceballs.

Relations

• 'Emilia LeBlanc' is not an individual but a mantle, with the current one (Evaine) being in charge of the underground society 'The Black Rose', whose members include  Elise,  Swain, and  Vladimir.
  • The current LeBlanc set the stage for  Swain's ascension to Grand General of Noxus.
    • A previous LeBlanc spearheaded  Sion's initial resurrection (assumedly by dispatching  Elise to the Shadow Isles, where she first met  Vilemaw) and the current one managed to restore his mind with  Jarvan IV's blood (the hemomantic ritual was conducted by  Vladimir)
      • How she obtained the Exemplar's blood is unknown, but it is suspected his capture and imprisonment was led by Swain and then she herself impersonated the prince to avoid suspicion from Demacia.
• LeBlanc is being targeted by  Kalista (whom she betrayed specifically is unknown)
