Linda, Unifier of the Light is a custom champion designed to fit in League of Legends. Linda was rushed heavily, because I was challenged by PrimusMobileVzla ;)

I'll add a portrait when I find one, and If there are no images that fit her, I'll just have a go at drawing (wish me luck!).

Lore, rushed, so hopeless

Dam, the Ionian Emmissary in Demacia fell in love with one of prophets from Elven Civilization of Fyrone, Sta'Seel. It wasn't an easy love. Cultural differences often caused arguments between them, and additionally, society of Elves never accepted Sta'Seel's love.

When it turned out that she was pregnant, the Elves waited till the birth, and right after Linda was borned, they kidnapped Sta'Seel and took her back to Fyrone Flats, leaving Dam as a single father. Dam never understood or supported the "Pure blood ideology", so he decided to raise the child as Sta'Seel would decide to. When the time was right, Dam led Linda to one of abandoned temples of their mother's civilization and began the Ritual of Definition, but none of Gods - as Dam thought - accepted Linda. He decided to start the ritual again, but before he finished, his soul had already lacerated itself into uncountable amount of pieces.

The wind blew his soul in all directions, and one of its pieces attached to Linda's soul. When this happened, the Sun and the Moon began to shine simultaneously at the opposite sides of the horizon: Linda has been chosen by both of the Light Gods.

When she returned to Demacia, prophets from Fyrone Flats immediately recognised her as a mythical unifier - a person supposed to bring peace between Human race and Elves, a person that shall form and lead United Tribes one day.

To spread the news to all of Valoran, elves forced Linda to join League of Legends, where she quickly started to form relationships and alliances with Moon's Human Avatar and her Solar counterpart. But Linda wasn't interested in making her destiny happen, she just wanted to find her mother with Hamengeri's help. As it turned out, it wasn't as easy as she had hoped it to be.
