Trivia Edit

• Lux was designed by Shurelia.
• Lux has an unusual Champion Spotlight: Shurelia herself explains how Lux and her abilities works as well as giving out pointers.
• "Lux" is the Latin word for "light" and is the SI unit of luminance and luminous emittance per unit area.
• Her name was Luminance Fraeulein before. ('Fraeulein'(Fräulein) means "young woman" in German.)^[1]
• Although voice actors are not officially announced, Lux's voice is most likely done by Riot's Princess Aura (Link) 
• Lux is the third champion, after Katarina and Ezreal, to be announced and then have her model re-imagined before it went live.
  • The redesigned model is based off of a painting by Katertot.^[2]
    • "Katertot" is the forum nickname of Katie DeSousa, who was hired by Riot as an artist shortly after she submitted the fan rework of Lux's image. [1]
• Lux's design, along with her ultimate, her joke, and her skins draw heavy inspiration from Marisa Kirisame, the Ordinary Magician, of Touhou Project.
  • Lux's joke about being an ordinary mage corresponds with Touhou 7 (Perfect Cherry Blossom), where Marisa says "Me? No, I'm just an ordinary magician" when accused of being a light magician.
  • Lux's penchant for mimicking spells on sight described in the lore is similar to Marisa's tendency to steal moves from other characters as well.
• Lux's ultimate  Final Spark was originaly named  Finales Funkeln which is German and translates to "Final Sparkle".
  • It had been renamed Infinite Light in V1.0.0.144. Due to community demand, the ability was again renamed to Final Spark in V1.0.0.145.
  • "Final Sparkle" was likely a reference to Marisa Kirisame's upgraded spellcard called Final Spark.
  • This ability bears close resemblance to Final Flash, an ability used by Vegeta in Dragonball Z. They both begin charging this ability with their arms pointing out to the side, and finish it with their arms pointing forward. The names and shapes of the abilities are also similar.
• Lux was announced in the Journal of Justice: Volume 1, Issue 06 prior to her official announcement.
• Lux and Swain used to have the most amount of jokes, both at 4. Vi now surpasses both at 5.

Quotes Edit

• Lux's taunt about power levels is a reference to the manga/anime Dragon Ball Z.
• Lux's taunt "In the name of Demacia, I will punish you!", is likely a reference to the manga/anime Sailor Moon.
• Lux's movement quote "I love it when a plan comes together" is a reference to the A-Team's Colonel Hannibal Smith's favorite catchphrase.
• Lux's joke "Double Rainbow? What does it mean?..." and the follow up joke "Well, a 'double rainbow'..." is a reference to a well-known YouTube video where a man severely overreacts to seeing a double rainbow.[2]
• In the polish client, Lux's joke "Light? I carry it in myself" is a reference to a line from a polish song "Light, you carry it in yourself" and is sung in the same melody.
• The quote "Shhh! I'm charging my laser..." is a reference to the Shoop Da Whoop meme.

Skins Edit

• The splash art for Sorceress Lux resembles the character Marisa Kirisame from the Touhou Project, when Marisa is shown in her navy-blue dress and riding a broom (or a vine) in memorable versions. Also in the splash-art of the Sorceress skin, Lux is in front of a full-moon, likely a reference to Touhou 8 (Imperishable Night), the first game in the series to have clearly depicted Marisa on a broom, where the story revolved around retrieving stolen full-moon.
• Spellthief Lux is another reference to Marisa Kirisame, who also steals spells.
• Imperial Lux is likely a homage to the Star Wars universe; bearing a strong similarity to Admiral Dodonna of the Old Republic.
• Imperial Lux is often compared to the visual look of Street Fighter's M. Bison who has a fairly similar appearance.
• Commando Lux possibly is a reference to the Imperial Guard of the Warhammer 40,000 series.
• Steel Legion Lux skin is a reference to the Grey Knights faction from Warhammer 40,000 series and the Engineer (Class) from Torchlight II, like her brother Garen.
• At the left side of Steel Legion Lux splash's background, it shows furnance(s) similar to those of the Emberworks, a dungeon from the game Torchlight II.

Relations Edit

• Lux is Garen's younger sister.
• In the map Howling Abyss, it is hinted by Lyte in one of his quotes that  Ezreal has a secret relationship with Lux.
  • A Zaun Lab Bot had apparently stolen an image of the couple from Ezreal and has made it public.^[3]
