Manix[]
Background[]
The predictions of their sorcerers had been that the next boy born to Manix's mother would become a great sorcerer-chief, leading a powerful clan into battle without defeat. Yet when the child Manix was born, her mother died. She screamed a terrifying scream that echoed through the minds around her.
Manix was born to a warlord of a distant land, as were dozens of her siblings. When her father saw it was a girl, he had the sorcerers cast out. Her brothers were encouraged to grow into strong warriors or enslaved, depending on the mother's origin, while the women were taught to obey the leaders of the tribe. Manix was no different.
At the age of 14, Manix killed her father and left the tribe. He was the first that Manix conquered.
For many years she wandered the continent, raving mad, speaking of what was in her mind, and adding those unfortunate whom she found to the tumultuous experience within. She never found wisdom, nor release, and was hardly more than a beast driven insane.
She has no memory of arriving on Valoran. She remembers not how she arrived at the door to the League of Legends. She very much remembers being restrained by master summoners, bound to interrogation tables, and regaining most of her sanity at the cost of being trapped in the halls of the Institute of War, acting as a champion in the League for the study of the summoners. She dates her 19th birthday just weeks prior.

Commentary[]
Post notes: Hybrid mage rewarded for continuous offence with high mobility and incremental damage. Has a lot of teamfight utility via damage reduction and several utility abilities, as well as a strong midgame. Snowballs a fight easily due to Conqueror mechanic
