Background[]

Early life[]

Born in Noxii terratories which would later becomeNoxus, in the village ofKhom, Ryze was a young mage apprentice to Master Tyrus ofHelia, a member of a order tasked with gathering and protecting the most dangerous artifacts ofRuneterra.

As time passed, Ryze would sometimes overhear Tyrus discussing something known as aWorld Rune, a collection of shards that held unbelievable power, but would hush himself if Tyrus ever spotted Ryze listening in. Though Tyrus tried his best to keep it hidden, word eventually got out about the World Runes and paranoia started to spread throughout Runeterra over how these World Runes could be used as weapons. Tyrus and Ryze travelled aroundValorantrying to calm people down but the situation only grew more dire. Eventually though, the first shot was fired in what would later be known as theRune Wars, in Noxii, Ryze's old home. Tyrus and Ryze tried and failed to hold a parley in Khom, but had no choice but to flee to the hills and when they looked back to Khom, nothing remained of Ryze's birthplace but a giant hole.

War raged across Runeterra, Ryze wanted to pick a side and help but Tyrus stopped him, Tyrus wanted to guide the world back towards peace, not bring it further into ruin. But the Rune Wars kept going, and Tyrus grew more and more distant. Eventually it got to a point where Ryze had to confront Tyrus, where he noticed Tyrus had come into possesion of two World Runes. A big argument insued, Tyrus argued that he needed the World Runes to stop the people, that there was no other way to stop the war. Ryze no longer saw Tyrus as his mentor, he was now just another man fallen to the temptation of the World Runes, and so Ryze mustered all the magic he was able to and2killed him.

Soon after, the Rune Wars ended, with the greatest civilizations all but having destroyed eachother. Ryze realised that as long as any World Runes were unsecured, this could happen again. He decided then that he alone would take on the burden of gathering all the World Runes and storing them away for good, vowing never to fall into temptation like his old master Tyrus.

Recent events[]

A battle raged inShurima, between thedarkinAatroxandXolaani, one which threatened to end all of Runeterra. As Ryze traveled, a3winged beingappreared from the skies with a plea for help, Ryze recognized the messenger and realised it could only have come fromKayleherself. Kayle's mother and the Aspect of Justice,Mihira, had descended from the heavens to join the fight, but had fallen to Xolaani and been7absorbed. As Ryze arrived at the battle, Kayle explained that Ryze alone had the power to stop the battle, by using the World Runes. Ryze hesitated, unsure wether it was right for him to act and with the World Runes no less. Ryze meditated on the history of Runeterra and ultimately came to the conclusion that Runeterra was worthy to be saved, and activated the World Runes, defeating Aatrox and Xolaani.

Appearance[]

Ryze is a old man with violet skin due to prolonged contact with the World Runes. His body is full of tattoos in runic styles. He is bald but has a scrappy black beard, tied togheter at the end with a hair ring. Ryze is shirtless except for a a leather shoulderguard with a sash holding it togheter. A giant scroll is attached to his back, held there by the leather sash. He wears fairly detailess, loose, dark blue pants with high leather boots. Around his waist he wears a leather belt with a book tied to it.

Personality[]

Ryze has become tired, longing for the day when all of this is over. Always in a hurry to get anything done as fast as possible. He tends to come across as quite rude, though argues its becouse he has better things to be doing. Though he is tired, he is steadfast in his goal and will get it done no matter what cost, even if that cost is the life of his friend or the death of a village. Their deaths are nothing compared to what the World Runes could bring.  Ryze has a strong control over his emotions, though he often gets mad, he never loses himself in an emotion. The only emotion he cannot control is hope, an emotion he tries desperately to get rid off, but always manages to influence him.

Abilities[]

• Master Sorcerer: Ryze can harness powerful magic capable of creating blasts of energy, energy constructs such as a cage, and is capable of teleportation from one place to another. He also has an extensive knowledge of the arcane and the nature of magic itself. He's noted as having a high amount of magical strength, to the point of being called a magical being rather than a mage.Rune Magic: Runes are Ryze's signature magic.
• Magically Altered: Ryze's body has been altered by prolonged contact with the World Runes, giving him a greatly increased lifespan.
• Rune Magic: Runes are Ryze's signature magic.
Relations[]

Brand[]

Kegan Rodhe, as he was known before he became Brand, was previously Ryze's apprentice, saved by Ryze from freezing to death in the harshFreljordiancold. Ryze saw potential in Kegan and attempted to teach him to control his latent magical abilites. Kegan and Ryze both often became frustrated with eachother, but still held compassion for eachother.

Though as Ryze neared the true goal of his journey, to one of the World Runes, Kegan fell to the temptation of the World Rune and Ryze was too late to stop him. Kegan's body and soul was burned away by the World Rune's power and what was left was the entity known as Brand. Brand now hunts down further World Runes and is constantly at odds with Ryze on his mission. Eventually, Ryze and Brand would meet in Shurima in theCity of Gardens, in search of another World Rune, where Ryze would trap Brand beneath the sands, where he remains for now.

Tyrus of Helia[]

Tyrus was Ryze's old master, member of a secret order tasked with storing and protecting the most dangerous of artifacts across Runeterra. Tyrus would later fall into the temptation of the World Runes, and Ryze was forced to kill him.

Nasus[]

Long before Shurima rose again from the sands, Ryze and the Ascended scholar Nasus delved into the ruinedWorld Rune Archivesbeneath theGreat Saiin search of a World Rune.

Miss Fortune[]

During a shootout between Miss Fortune and a rival captain’s crew, Ryze got caught in their conflict and helped her out.

Sona[]

Sona traveled with Ryze to theHirana MonasteryinIoniaafter the Noxian invasion and together fought theNavori Brotherhoodwho ambushed them.

Trundle[]

Ryze once came face to face with Trundle and hisTrollswhile traveling through the Freljord.

An Old Friend

ByJohn O'Bryan

Ryze would have been cold if his body wasn't simmering with nervous energy. With all that weighed on him that day, the harsh Freljordian elements scarcely seemed to have an effect. Neither was he daunted by the distant howl of a hungry ice troll. He had come to do a job. Not one he relished, but one that had to be done, and one he could no longer avoid.

Ruination (Novel)

ByAnthony Reynolds Lenné

Camavor is a brutal land with a bloody legacy. Where the empire’s knights go, slaughter follows. Kalista seeks to change that. When her young and narcissistic uncle, Viego, becomes king she vows to temper his destructive instincts as his loyal confidant, advisor, and military general. But her plans are thwarted when an assassin’s poisoned blade strikes Viego’s wife, Isolde, afflicting her with a malady for which there is no cure. As Isolde’s condition worsens, Viego descends into madness and grief, threatening to drag Camavor down with him. Kalisa makes a desperate gambit to save the kingdom: She searches for the long-lost Blessed Isles, rumored to hold the queen’s salvation if only Kalista can find them. But corruption grows in the Blessed Isle’s capital, where a vengeful warden seeks to ensnare Kalista in his cruel machinations. She will be forced to choose between her loyalty to Viego and doing what she knows is right–for even in the face of utter darkness, one noble act can shine a light that saves the world.
