Crafted long ago as a plaything for a lonely prince, the enchanted marionette Shaco now delights in murder and mayhem. Corrupted by dark magic and the loss of his beloved charge, the once-kind puppet finds pleasure only in the misery of the poor souls he torments. He uses toys and simple tricks to deadly effect, finding the results of his bloody “games” hilarious—and for those who hear a dark chuckle in the dead of night, the Demon Jester may have marked them as his next plaything.

Background[]

Early Life[]

Shaco was once a toy made for a young prince.

Corruption and Sentience[]

At some point, the prince that owned Shaco died, and through dark magic and corruption caused by the death of his owner, Shaco gained sentience. Soon, he started killing people and delighting in their pain. Shaco became a highly sought after fugitive by authorities due to his high number of crimes, and he is now a widely known criminal with no one knowing his origins or the motives behind his crimes.

Appearance[]

Shaco dons the outfit of a jester with checkered pants, gold buttons, and spiked shoulderplates. He has pale skin, a disproportionately wide smile, and eyes with no pupils.

Personality[]

Shaco is an insane individual, committing atrocities just because he feels like it. He delights in others' pain and often finds what he does funny. There is no real motive to his crimes, although it is possible that he only does these things to entertain himself.

Abilities[]

• Daggers:Shaco carries two poisoned dual shivs with him, making him able to stab his enemies and slowly eat away at those who survive.
• Invisibility:Shaco can turn invisible at will, making him able to hide from enemies and pull off unexpected attacks.
• Cloning:Shaco is able to make a clone of himself and control it, confusing enemies and making him able to attack his enemies with his clone as well.
Relations[]

Shaco has no known relations with any existing or known characters.

Trivia:
ERROR:Shaco's eyes are mistakenly colored purple on his uncentered splash art, Loading screen, Square, and Circle assets. They are supposed to be blue, as shown in his model, newest emotes, Illustration and Champie icons, centered splash art, and old splash art.
Shaco is one of a few champions to have multiple textures in one skin. When he usesHallucinate, his clone will be of a different colour palette which can only be seen by Shaco and his allies. To the opposing team, the two Shacos look exactly the same, including copies of any externalbuffsanditemeffects active at the moment the clone is spawned (Prior to patchV5.22, clones did not duplicate external buff/active item effect particles).Four other champions with this feature areLeBlanc(viaMirror Image),Wukong's(viaWarrior Trickster),Nasus(viaFury of the Sands) andMalphite(viaGranite ShieldandThunderclap).
Shaco's dance referencesThe Worm, abreakdance move.A side-by-side comparison can be seenhere.
Shacomight be referencing theHarlequinCrestfromDiablo.
It's possible that many aspects of Shaco's champion design, such as his appearance, his laugh and his "manic killer clown" persona were inspired byKefka PalazzofromFinal Fantasy VI.
The nameShacois ananagramfor the word 'chaos' (mentioned in theJournal of Justice- Issue 13: 10 Questions with Shaco), befitting his penchant for it.
There was a rework concept that turned Shaco into aprojectilebut hitting aWind Wallin this form would remove him from the game.[2]
