A united Noxus could control the world - and would deserve to.

--Darius

Swain - The Master Tactician.[1]

History

Noxus is not much older than Demacia, about 400 years ago this Nation was founded. Back when it was created, Noxus was a reasonable government, but after many years, corruption began to seep in. Before Demacia had begun to be built, Noxus was full of power-hungry politicians seeking to rule, bloodthirsty assassins murdering people in their sleep, and defenseless paupers braving the filthy streets. Noxus has made enemies with Demacia and Ionia alike and will not soon leave them in peace.

Not Very Happy

Noxians have a nasty habit of being scary or, at least, unnerving. Reaching more than 6 feet tall helps. Most Noxians have a large build, and weigh a 200 pounds. Hair on Noxus is usually long and black or, in the case of many Noxian aristocrats, absent. Skin tones ranging from very pale to light brown are a common sight in Noxus. Like Demacians, few of them have facial hair, unlike Demacians, they work it into long styles when they do have any.

Life of Deceit

Most Noxians could live to be 100 years of age easily, but their cutthroat politics, dangerous alleys, and polluted air means they rarely do. Due to all this, the average Noxian lives to be around 60 years of age before dying. Within that lifespan, a Noxians generally ruins another person, financially or otherwise.

Noxians generally use Runeterra: Demacian (5e Race) common names. But the most notable noble family of Noxus is Du Couteau.
