Orlon[]

Poppy'shammerbelonged to Demacia's founder and weaponsmith Orlon, who passed it on to her on his deathbed. She is searching for the 'Hero of Demacia' meant to wield the hammer (without realizing she is the one). When Orlon passed the hammer to Poppy, he did not specifically identify her as the Hero (or meant to, but died before he could), leading to Poppy's misunderstanding.

The Slayer

ByJohn O'Bryan

Poppy had nothing against the briar wolf, aside from the fact that it was about to maul her. Its muzzle was stained crimson from a previous kill, and the yordle wouldn't chance being its next. She was hot on the trail of a renowned monster slayer, and she didn't intend to die before she found the man and judged his worth.

“Here, doodad,” she whispers to the grass. “Pretty please, with sprinkles on top!

Well, not really rolling, as such, more making itself be where she isn't.

Trivia[]

• Orlon was also a weaponsmith, and had actually craftedOrlon's Hammerhimself. He was also the one who craftedJarvan IV'sspear,Drakebane.[1]
• Poppy's true age is unknown, but since the in-universe present year is at least 997 AN and Poppy's earliest known event is her arrival on Runeterra during the Rune Wars (13 BN - 3 BN), it can be safely concluded that she is at least 1000 years old.
• The Hammer of Orlon is represented as the Hammer stone inTellstones: King's Gambit.The author of the rulebook is aware that Poppy is the true hero and that she does not know it.
