Background[]

Early Life[]

Leona was born to Sunforgers Iasur and Melia within theRakkortribes ofMount Targon. Along with her younger siblings Aidonel and Kespina, Leona was raised since birth to honor the faith of theSolari, a religious sect of the Rakkor that highly venerated the sun.

Leona took to the Solari faith as easily as breathing, proving excellence in capability, willpower and devotion to the faith. Leona's faith and skill was so strong that her peers grew jealous, as nobody had doubts that she would one day become one of the eliteRa'Horakwarriors of the Solari.

Relationship with Diana[]

(TBA)[1]

One night, Diana confided a secret to Leona and spoke of the hidden alcove she discovered in the mountain, an ancient place where the walls depicted strange imagery of the moon and forgotten societies dressed in silver armor, proving that the sun and the moon were in fact not enemies at all. Noticing the heresy of what Diana described, she urged her to abandon this search and never speak of her discoveries, seeking to protect Diana from the brutal punishments of the other Solari if they heard of what she found. Diana reluctantly promised Leona that she'd abandon her discoveries and the two never spoke of it again as time passed, while Leona believed that her friend finally came to her senses.

Ascending Mount Targon[]

On one fateful night, Leona caught a glimpse of Diana sneaking out of the temple. Though Leona's first instincts was to tell the elders, she instead decided to protect her friend from their punishments and set off to follow her into the night.

Following Diana, Leona ascended Mount Targon itself and endured a brutal trial unlike anything she'd ever faced before as every fiber of her being was tested to its limits. As she passed frozen bodies embedded into the mountain's slopes, Leona continued her journey and endured thanks to her training, willpower and drive to protect Diana.

Miraculously, to Leona's surprise, she finally reached the peak of the mountain after what felt like an eternity. Exhausted and beholding an uncanny landscape at the peak, she found Diana engulfed in a column of silver light, writhing in agony to Leona's horror. As she rushed to her aid, a second, golden column of light burst from the heavens and enveloped her entire body.

Becoming an Aspect[]

Leona felt the sun's powers course through her and sear away her very being, but her indomitable will allowed her to retain her consciousness. Leona expected to be incinerated but instead emerged the newHostfor the6Aspect of the Sun, realizing that she was destined to protect the Solari in dire times to come.

Diana also emerged as a new Aspect of6the Moon, now clad in silver armor that reflected the golden armor Leona found herself wearing. Diana was overjoyed that the two of them became Aspects together and begged Leona to join her on a new quest to find answers outside of the Solari faith, but Leona demanded that they return home and present themselves for the priests' judgements. The two argued and neither conceded as they engaged in swift combat utilizing their newfound powers. Diana eventually had her crescent blade at Leona's throat but refused to deal the killing blow and fled. Devastated, Leona descended the mountain without Diana and hurried to report to the elders.

Unfortunately, when Leona arrived, she found many Solari priests and Ra'Horak guards slaughtered, seemingly by Diana's hands. The survivors emerged and awed at Leona's arrival, amazed by the arrival of not one buttwoAspects among them. Now as the new Aspect of the Sun, Leona knew that great threats and changes were coming to Runeterra and vowed to act as a guiding light for her people serving as fierce leader.

Modern History[]

Leona continued to lead the Solari as an avatar of their faith and was eventually appointed as the commander for the entire Ra'Horak, gaining complete control and loyalty of all the Solari warriors. Though she seeks to preserve the religious dominance of the Solari, she has sworn to find and locate Diana in fear of what the Aspect of the Moon will do to her if she does not learn to control it.

Confronting Diana[]

(TBA)[2][3][4][5]

Facing Atreus[]

Appearance[]

Leona is a tall, beautiful woman with lightly tanned skin, light brown eyes, and back-length shiny auburn hair.

Her attire consists of red and gold Solari armor that covers her entire body, a spiked golden crown on her head, and she always carries her sword and shield.

Personality[]

Leona is a devout and loyal Solari warrior, willing to give her life in the name of the sun and her people. She has an incredibly strong force of will, evidenced by her early schooling, the trials she undertook before being imbued by the Aspect of the Sun, and her commitment to guiding the Solari as host to the Aspect.

She is a warm soul, especially withDiana, who was her closest friend and lover before her betrayal at the peak of Mount Targon. Many Solari demanded Diana's head due to this betrayal, but Leona instead endeavors to help her control the Moon Aspect's power before it destroys her. She still loves Diana despite her betrayal, but is unable to bring herself to reconcile with her.

Leona saw the moment Diana was imbued with the moon's power, she rushed to help before being imbued with the sun's power herself and made an Aspect.

Pantheon[]

Atreusclimbed Mount Targon to find the power of Aspects when Leona refused to destroy the trespassers that attacked his patrol. After he defeatedAatroxand became the new Aspect of War, he opposes her and other Targonian Aspects.
Leona would not move against the Barbarians because she knewAatroxwas slaughtering them, which Atreus would only understand later on.[7]

Soraka refers toLeonaas "Woman whose face burned like the sun".

ApheliosandAlune[]

As the champion of theSolari, Alune seesLeonaas the Lunari's ultimate enemy. However, like most of theLunari, she is not necessarily hostile towards Leona or the Solari.

The Light Bringer

ByGraham McNeill

The raiders attacked before dawn; fifty wolf-lean men in iron hauberks mantled with strange furs and bearing ash-dulled axes. Their steps were swift as they entered the settlement at the foot of the mountain. These were men who had fought as brothers for years, who lived in the heartbeat between life and death. A warrior in battered scale armor and bearing a heavy-bladed greatsword over his shoulder led them. Beneath his dragon-helm, his face was bearded and raw, burned by a lifetime of war-making under a harsher sun than this.

Trivia:
Leona's dance resembles 'Shield Break' by theForce ShielderfromCabal Online.
SunlightandIlluminationhave nearly identical functionality, with the only differences being who (Leona's allies andLuxherself, respectively) and what (any allied damage source andLux'sbasic attacks, respectively) triggers them.
Sunlightdeals1 less damage to champions wearing sunglasses(whether by default likeVayneor through a skin likeRiot GravesorSurfer Singed).
Leonais the modern feminine derivative of Ancient Greek nameLeonΛέων "lion", from an Afro-Asiatic source[2](cf. Proto-Semitic*labuʔ ~ *labiʔ);[3]Her title 'the Radiant Dawn' might be referencingFire Emblem: Radiant Dawn&Hausos, thePIEDawn Goddess.
