History

Far above the clouds on Mount Targon resides a stalwart tribe of people known as the Rakkor who still revere combat and war as ultimate artforms. They remember the Rune Wars of Runeterra and know that the League of Legends can only repress the rising tides of violence for so long. Each member of the tribe is bred to be a disciplined and vicious warrior, preferring to battle soldiers of either the Noxian or Demacian armies only when outnumbered at least ten to one. Rakkor warriors are trained not only to be as lethal with their bare hands as the most capable martial artists, but also to fiercely wield the many relic-weapons of the tribe.

Unyielding Warriors

Rakkor stand tall and muscular, emanating an aura that persuades foes to avoid confrontation with such an opponent lest they be torn asunder. Rakkor reach about 7 feet in height, at least among the males, and generally, weigh a hefty 200 or so pounds. hair coloration among Rakkor is either golden like the sun or red like the dawn. Skin tones are rather moderate, as the Rakkor have had a decent amount of exposure to the sun.
