Incredible. Before now, I would have called your powers impossible. And yet, here you are, in front of my very eyes, as real as can be. I must ask you, odd creature: You can float. You can fly. But, like us, can you fight?

[the-yordle-above]

*touch*

[the-yordle-above]

"come here and fight me!!" - poisen

“Besides, you’d never touch me.”

Words has it, that no yordle has ever been better at basketball than Keelan.

“I’d be considered a cheater if I played, right?” 

[the-yordle-above]

Keelan giggled a little, smiling under her stone mask. "What a mouthful!" She teased, turning again so she was upright. "Don't you get tired of stringing that all together?" She asked curiously.

Xerath stared at the strange creature before him. It resonated with some manner of unusual power, and seemed to effortlessly float through the air like he did. "...Are you a spirit?"

The creature stared back at him through the holes in her mask just as he had stared at her, tilting her head slightly. “Nope, I’m just a yordle, though I suppose some people consider us spirits.” she answered simply enough, floating around him for a moment in a circle. “Are you a spirit?” She asked in return, turning upside down in the air as she still looked him over as if it would help her to figure out what he was.

"I'LL BOTHER WHOEVER I GOSH HECKING WANT WHENEVER THE FRICK I WANT!"

“Is the yelling necessary?”

[the-yordle-above]

Keelan, the Air-Walker

Yordles have always been looked down upon by the people of Runeterra: that is a simple truth that Keelan learned very early on in life. Though most choose to hide their true faces from humans, Keelan was different; she boated a bright, friendly personality, and never seemed too intimidated by creatures several times her size. Because of this, Keelan often got herself into trouble, being scolded about how dangerous the world outside Bandle was.

Still, Keelan’s fearlessness was a trait that followed her all her life, and the more she heard of the outside world, the more she sought to explore it. In-particular, Keelan grew fascinated with the tales of Mount Targon, a place where only the bravest dared to venture, and few returned from. Even so, Keelan set out to tackle the mountain, aiming to prove that even though she was small, the size of the mighty Targon did not intimidate her.

Thus, Keelan began the trial many had perished attempting before her: reaching the peak of the sacred mountain. The task proved far more arduous than anticipated, but Keelan did not relent. The mountain, at times, seemed to taunt her, as though she were nothing more than a flee on the back of a mighty beast. Rockslides and snowstorms threatened to claim her life, yet she continued climbing, ever-resolute in her goals.

The higher Keelan climbed, the more she felt a strange power seeming to guide her upwards. In truth, her natural atunement with magic as a Yordle let her harness the mysterious energies resonating from the mountain. Keelan felt her body becoming lighter, albeit more exhausted as she neared the top.

It was only when Keelan’s hand slipped that she realized what had happened to her. Instead of plummeting to her doom, the Yordle found herself suspended in the air, and her body resonated with a mysterious glow. Though at first confused, Keelan soon learned that she could levitate at a whim, defying the natural law of gravity with the magic borrowed from the mountain.

After reaching the peak and finding nothing interest, Keelan chose to set out on even greater adventures. Donning a mask fashioned from Targon’s own rocky surface, Keelan seeks to prove that she can rise above any challenge, in-spite of her small stature.

Admittedly I was gunna just keep what she looks like to be a mystery…. But I REALLY wanted to design her face and stuff. Oops.
