Arcana is a series of alternate future/universe skins in League of Legends. Set in a world where champions are Archetypes that want to shape the world to their vision.

Lore

High above Arcana, the Archetypes, living patterns that shape reality itself, struggle to trace their vision upon the chaos below them. The Archetypes recruit perceptive citizens of the world below to amplify their hidden patterns - and the more who magnify an Archtype's pattern, the more the world reflects their grand design.
Archetypes
  • An icon representing Camille/Cosmetics Arcana Camille
    Chromas: Citrine, Emerald, Obsidian, Pearl, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Sapphire, Tanzanite
    Poised precariously above the city, on the edge of High Arcana, Camille's power comes from surprise and defying expectations. Her patterns seem confusing and alarming—even perilous—to those who cross her path, but they always resolve to her benefit. When burdened on the brink, Camille is at her strongest, but no one truly knows what she plans to use all that strength for...
  • An icon representing Lucian/Cosmetics Arcana Lucian
    Chromas: Amethyst, Citrine, Emerald, Obsidian, Pearl, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Turquoise
    Lucian believes in balance: that no one Archetype should have excessive influence on the world. With one gun amplifying patterns and the other canceling them out, Lucian maintains the world's fragile order within the new power vacuum—even as the likes of Tahm Kench move to fill it.
  • An icon representing Tahm Kench/Cosmetics Arcana Tahm Kench
    Chromas: Amethyst, Citrine, Emerald, Obsidian, Pearl, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Sapphire
    The epitome of power and opulence, Tahm Kench's power drips from his tongue. Its ornate patterns captivate and cajole his listeners. He leverages those he rules, staking his power to ensure the patterns always shift in his favor—“correcting” his subjects who have gone astray.
  • An icon representing Xerath/Cosmetics Arcana Xerath
    Chromas: Amethyst, Citrine, Emerald, Obsidian, Pearl, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Sapphire
    Ensnared by his own desires, Xerath leads citizens of Low Arcana to act on their basest urges. The more they are entranced by the forbidden, the more his power grows. But while Xerath believes their temptation will lead to his deliverance, he does not realize that the stronger he becomes, the more tightly his chains bind him.

History

Trivia

  • The Arcana skin line was inspired by the Major Arcana, the 22 trump cards of a standard 78-card tarot pack. The trump cards are typically associated with with cartomancy (divination with playing cards).
    • The skins aren't a 1:1 correspondence with any card or archetype.[1]
