Gnaris an excitable yordle whose playful antics can erupt into a toddler's outrage in an instant, transforming him into a massive beast bent on destruction. Frozen in True Ice for millennia, the curious creature broke free and now hops about a changed world he sees as exotic and wondrous. Delighted by danger, Gnar flings whatever he can at his enemies, be it his bonetooth boomerang... or an uprooted tree.

Background[]

Early life[]

Before the ice had given the Freljord its name, there existed a land brimming with wonder—that is, if one could see the world through the eyes of Gnar.

A young yordle with boundless energy, Gnar and others like him lived openly among the hardy tribes of the northlands. Though barely big enough to leave footprints in the snow, his temper rivaled that of beasts ten times his size, and he would erupt with a babble of curses the moment anything went amiss. For this reason, he felt more kinship with the greater and wiser creatures, who kept their distance from mortals. To Gnar, they looked like overgrown, white-furred yordles… and that was good enough for him.

While the tribes foraged across the tundra, gathering wild berries and tasty moss, Gnar collected more essential items, like rocks, pebbles, and the muddy remains of dead birds. His greatest treasure was the jawbone of a drüvask. When he tugged it from the cold earth, he squealed with glee and flung it as far as he could.

It landed two hops away.

Thrilled by this early success, Gnar carried his “boomerang” wherever he went. The world would try its best to offer him new delights—shiny lint, sweet nectar, round things—but none could match the pure joy he felt in throwing and catching his cherished weapon. He now considered himself a hunter, and trailed herds of wild beasts that paid him no mind.

But even he could sense change coming to the land. The sky seemed darker. The winds felt colder. The mortal tribes who had once foraged together, now appeared to hunt each other…

The big white yordles would know what to do. Gnar would go to them.

Using all of his hunting skill, he tracked them into the snow-capped peaks of a vast mountain range, much farther than he had ever wandered before. As he approached unseen, he also saw more mortals than he could count. This was exciting, but no one else seemed too happy about it.

Then the ground shook, and split apart. For the first time in Gnar’s life, it seemed as thougheveryone elsewas throwing tantrums. The mortals yelled. The big yordles roared.

But the monster’s arrival silenced them all.

Heaving itself up from the newly opened abyss, it bore huge horns, whipping tentacles, and a single eye, burning with strange light that made the fur on Gnar’s back crawl. While some mortals fled at the sight, he began to feel an odd pain in his chest—it was like the thought of losing his boomerang, or never being hugged again. This horrible thing wanted to hurt his new friends.

And this made him angry. In that moment, Gnartrulyraged.

All he could see was the monster. In a flash, he was in the air, leaping toward it. In one paw, he grasped a snowball… or so he thought. In fact, it was a boulder plucked from the mountainside, for Gnar had grown as large as the big white yordles. He would send this monster back where it came from, by walloping its face!

But the blow never landed. Gnar felt a chill colder than any winter, one that seemed to turn the air itself into ice—truly, this elemental magic froze him in place, biting through his shaggy fur. Everything, including the monster, became quiet. The yordle’s strength and anger melted away. A deep tiredness crept into his limbs, and he fell softly asleep.

Awakening[]

Gnar napped for a long time. When he finally awoke, he shook the frost from his shoulders, breathing heavily. Everyone else was gone. With no monsters to fight and no friends to protect, he felt very small and alone again.

The land was very different, too. There was snoweverywhere, blanketing everything as far as his wide eyes could see. Still, he let out a happy yelp when he saw his beloved boomerang lying beside him, and scurried away to find something to hunt.

Even now, Gnar has no grasp of what took place that fateful day, nor how he escaped. He simply marvels at the world before him, with so many oddities to collect and places to explore.

Appearance[]

(TBA)

Personality[]

He has the mind and innocence of a 4 year old, energetic, but tantrum prone, playful, but fierce. but despite his temper, he is quick to forgive and is overall a nice guy so long as others are nice to him in return.

Snow falls all morning, blanketing the earth in fresh coats of white. One by one, feathery flakes trickle from the sky, gently at first, and then rapidly in unison.

Trivia[]

• Gnar is a prehistoric yordle, at the very least older than 10,000 years, dating back to a time when there were no massive civilizations on land.He was able to survive for millennia due to hibernation and being encased in True Ice.
• He is unaware that he transforms but that may change when he grows older.He retains his personality as Mega Gnar.
• The tribal paintings in 'Discovering the Link' depict Gnar and his family living in peace until a one-eyed entity with two horns/tentacles (speculated to be a FrozenWatcheror one ofVel'Koz'sVoidborn species) attacked them. It knocks Gnar's family away, triggering hisRage Genetherefore turning Mega, and promptly fighting the entity to unknown success.Originally, a defeatedAniviaencased Gnar for centuries in True Ice to preserve him and ultimately awakens him again to fight the FrozenWatcherson the brink of their return.[1]However, in the current lore,Lissandrais the one who imprisoned the Watchers with the True Ice catastrophe.
• Gnar learned to use a boomerang from and fashioned his after his father's.The boomerang is hidden in Mega Gnar's fur when he transforms.[2]
• Gnar is the only Yordle in modern times to have a tail due to his antiquity.Part of the reason Gnar is the way he is relates to how he grew up near prehistoric beasts and was raised byyetis. He's also young (or at least, he still has the mind of a youngster) so he tantrums a lot, obviously.[3]
• The Hunter Huntedwas originally written fromRengar'spoint of view. However, with the later established timeline and map settings, the hunter that encountered Gnar from the story is unlikely to still be him should the story be still canon.[4]

Trivia:
Gnar,Elise,Jayce,KayleandNidaleeare the only champions to be bothrangedandmelee.
Gnar's concept is built on monstrous transformations in fiction coupled with theFish Out of Watertrope.Inspirations includeStrange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr HydebyRobert Louis Stevenson,Gremlins, andHulkbyMarvel Comics.Paleontologically speaking, Gnar is not a missing link, i.e.transitional specimen, but he belongs to the Yordle population ancestral to modern ones; colloquially-speaking, he is the great-great-...-granduncle of all living Yordles.
In Brazilian localization, Gnar's title was changed toO Yordle Pré-histórico('the Prehistoric Yordle') in order to avoid matchmaking-rating-associated jokes/bullying derived fromO Elo Perdido('the Missing Link').
Gnar is the second champion to have two champion portraits (Mini GnarandMega Gnar) the first beingQuinnandValor.He is also the third to have more than one chat name, the first beingAniviaandEggniviaand the second being anyone polymorphed byLulu(Squill).As well as the seventh champion to have more than four abilities, the others beingElise,Heimerdinger,Jayce,Karma,Nidalee,Lee Sin,Rek'SaiandYorick.
Mini Gnar has the fewest active abilities of any ranged champion (HyperandGNAR!are fully passive effects) and the lowest health at Level 18 (1645).
Mega Gnar has his own separate emotes from Mini Gnar's.His dance referencesDonkey Kong.Boulder Toss' projectile is shaped like theRiot Games Inc.logo.
Mega Gnar has the highestlevel 18baseattack damage(157).
Although patchV7.16made it so the portrait of the selected skin would be used in the central portion of the in-game UI, transforming intoMega Gnaralways uses his base portrait for all skins.
