Universe:Infernal
Infernal is a series of alternate future/universe skins in League of Legends. Set in a setting where the Ashen Lord has been summoned and transformed the world into a land of ashes, cinders and fire.
Fire, sulfur, and death. There is no returning to what the world was before the Ashen Lord rose. It is a dream, lost to the searing lava rivers beneath volcano-strewn lands. Now a new age begins, one that will burn for eternity.
Lore[edit | edit source]
- Scorching an entire world takes unimaginable strength, which is why the Ashen Lord called upon his legions of Infernals to lend their flames. From the darkest depths, they each bring their own terrible powers to bear, though not all answer their call with the same burning enthusiasm.
- Ashen Lord
Ashen Lord Aurelion Sol
Pyromancer cultists unwisely summoned the god of fire and ruin—the Ashen Lord—into the world hoping to control his power. Instead, he unleashed his infernal legions to remake all things in his image: cinder, ash, and death.
- Infernals
Infernal Akali
A djinn summoned from the world below, the Infernal known as Akali will burn her patron's enemies to cinders… though the cost for such service is always dire.
Infernal Alistar
Leading from the front of the Infernal invasion, Alistar is a lumbering juggernaut whose ponderous movements bely unimaginable strength and speed. Dozens of armies have fallen before him, overwhelmed suddenly and completely by his power.
Infernal Amumu
Chromas: Amethyst, Catseye, Emerald, Rose Quartz, Ruby
When ancient pyromancers unleashed the malevolent Infernals upon the world, they also unintentionally summoned younger, lonelier creatures. A mere spark compared to the fiery monsters now ravaging the land, Amumu seeks only friendship… unwittingly incinerating all those he touches.
Infernal Ashe Chromas: Amethyst, Aquamarine, Catseye, Emerald, Pearl, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Turquoise
Using her accursed bow, Ashe sets her sights on all who have not already willingly joined the Ashen Lord's army. Once pierced by her blazing arrows, her mark immediately becomes consumed by the Infernal flame and damned to serve within his legions forevermore.
Infernal Diana
Chief among the lesser Infernals is Diana, a blistering elemental terror sent ahead of the main invasion forces to assassinate key officials and set cities ablaze. Even her kin regard her methods as extreme, and she has been rightly elevated for it.
Infernal Galio Chromas: Catseye, Pearl, Peridot, Rose Quartz, Ruby
A black-hearted monstrosity leading the hellish Infernal hordes, Galio is titanic even by the standards of his fiery kin. His steps melt the very bedrock beneath him, swallowing entire armies without so much as a second thought.
7Infernal Galio (7Level 2)
Galio surveyed the charred landscape, looking with great pleasure upon the cities he had crushed underfoot. But the view was spoiled by the pitiful creatures that clawed out from beneath the wreckage, clinging to their worthless lives in defiance of the Ashen Lord’s will.
With fitful rage, Galio struck the earth again, and again, and again… He would not be calmed, not until every one of these insolent creatures burned.
Infernal Karma Chromas: Amethyst, Aquamarine, Catseye, Pearl, Peridot, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Turquoise
Possessed by a spirit of the Infernal flame, Karma was once a powerful pyromancer of the Shadowfire Temple. Believing it possible to control the flame spirit, she captured it hoping to put an end to the Ashen Lord's reign but succumbed to the hellfire like all the rest.
Infernal Karthus Chromas: Amethyst, Citrine, Emerald, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Sapphire
The disciples of Karthus usher this infernal harbinger into the world by singing his discordant chorus, a pledge that beckons pillars of flame unto them. On his arrival, the deathsinger's chant summons columns of hellfire that descend from the heavens above. Few live to tell of the dirge they heard before flames swept the land.
Infernal Kennen Chromas: Amethyst, Catseye, Emerald, Rainbow, Rose Quartz, Ruby
A playful spirit of fire, Kennen is not a malevolent being, but can't help igniting his surroundings while zipping about. His lightning quick movements wreak havoc upon any village unfortunate enough to entice the impish spirit to visit.- 1Infernal Kennen (1Level 2,
3 Kennen's Lightning Rush, 0 Mark of the Storm)
What's that, my little fire sprite? You wish to explore this pathetic world? Very well. It would be such a shame to see that exuberant spirit of yours dimmed. - The Ashen Lord
Run along, then, and go where you please... For wherever you are, my fire will follow. - The Ashen Lord
Don't get caught in the firestorm.
Always play with fire.
Infernal Mordekaiser
An ancient, Infernal general who attacks without feeling or remorse, Mordekaiser raises the incinerated corpses of his victims as soldiers for his own vast armies. They sweep across the world like a burning plague, annihilating all life.
Infernal Nasus
The greater Infernals are somehow even more cruel and hateful than their lesser counterparts, and Nasus is no exception. A three-headed monstrosity raised from some far-flung, hellish abyss, he withers life with his merest touch… then burns it away.
Infernal Olaf Chromas: Amethyst, Aquamarine, Catseye, Emerald, Rainbow, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Turquoise
As self-destructive as he is deadly, Infernal Olaf fervidly embraced the Infernal flame. Giving himself over to it, body and soul, he lives to serve the Ashen Lord and will destroy anything and everything in his path.
Infernal Pantheon
- 4Infernal Pantheon (4Level 2)
For what cruel purpose do you call me to this earth, Ashen Lord? To torment me as a puppet on string, and turn this fiery blade against those I vowed to protect?
My blade was never meant to be used against mortals. For this, Ashen Lord, you will pay.
Molten Rammus
An unstoppable warbeast drummed up from the Infernal hordes, Rammus simply chooses a direction and begins spinning—through homes, armies, and nations alike, burning everything to ashes.
Scorched Earth Renekton
What is an Infernal but the screams beckoning from the darkest corners of mortal imagination? For centuries they were considered nothing more than myth—and yet, now, monstrosities such as Renekton roam freely, punishing us all for the last fleeting gasp of our own hubris.
Infernal Shen Chromas: Catseye, Pearl, Peridot, Rose Quartz, Ruby
An Infernal warrior risen from the raging depths of the underworld, Shen appears on battlefields in the blink of an eye, shielding his fellow titans from even the most well-organized resistance.- 4Infernal Shen (4Level 2, 6 Shen's Stand United)
Mortal. Why do you struggle against the inevitable? All creatures must eventually turn to ash, and be remade in the Ashen Lord’s image.
Fear not. Your death will be swift.
Destruction and rebirth arise from the same flame. - Shen
Infernal Swain
- 5Infernal Swain (5Level 2)
Patience, my companions. Let the embers gather. We shall kindle the flames when the moment is right.
At last, every piece is in its proper place. Now, rise to the sky, unfurl your wings, and let the inferno rage.
Infernal Varus Chromas: Catseye, Pearl, Peridot, Rose Quartz, Ruby
The Infernal Varus rips massive gouts of magma from the foundation of the earth, before firing them in volleys at those who would fight back against him. Each arrow lands with the ferocity of an exploding volcano, reducing all resistance to ash.
Infernal Vel'Koz Chromas: Amethyst, Catseye, Emerald, Rainbow, Rose Quartz, Ruby
Scarce is known of Vel'Koz, owing to the fact that most who witness him combust at his mere presence. What is known, however, is that this cataclysmic titan can level entire civilizations with his incinerating gaze, leaving only smouldering ruin. Woe be to those fixed in the behemoth's infernal gaze, for there will be no remains left to bury.
Firefang Warwick
The Ashen Lord's hounds blaze with the fires of unspeakable molten hellscapes, and at their head is Warwick, the Firefang. Scouring the earth for anything untouched by flame, he relentlessly hunts the survivors of Infernal attacks, reducing them to sputtering cinders.
Volcanic Wukong
A greater Infernal whose power is drawn from the molten rock bubbling beneath the earth, Wukong's rage causes mountains to split, lava to rain from the sky, and rivers to become blackened glass. Still, he will never back down from any challenge—and this, perhaps, will be the key to his defeat.
Scorched Earth Xerath
A highly unstable creature born from roiling magma, Xerath possesses a keen intellect, awaiting the day he might ascend through the ranks of the Infernal war machine, and usurp the Ashen Lord himself. For now his ambitions remain secret, but… soon… soon…
- Consumed by the Infernals
Charred Maokai
Once a steward of the gentle treefolk, Maokai was consumed along with his people when the Infernals ravaged the world. Now, brimming with rage, he seeks only to spread his anger and misery to anything that crosses his path.
Wildfire Zyra
Once a forest nymph, Zyra was consumed by the Infernals' burning touch. Now, she seeks nothing more than to spread wildfire throughout the forests and valleys of her dying world.
- Shadowfire Temple
Foxfire Ahri Chromas: Ahri-versary, Emerald
A young, talented pyromancer from the Shadowfire Temple, Ahri gave up her quiet life when a faction of extremists unleashed the burning horrors of the Ashen Lord. Now she uses her fire magic to fight against them, even though all hope seems lost.
Shadowfire Kindred
When the Ashen Lord rose, high priests of the Shadowfire Temple called upon their own god to fend off the all-consuming Infernals. They neglected, however, to account for the being's twin aspects: Destruction, and Rebirth. Kindred will fight the flames, but there may be a bitter price to pay before the end…
- Protectors
Obsidian Malphite
As great mountains were ripped from their foundations during the rise of the Ashen Lord, from deep beneath them climbed strange, obsidian creatures, freed for the first time after thousands of years. They seem intent on stopping the Infernals, and are uniquely suited to defeating them.

Shadowfire Kindred as Angel of Death, 
Infernal Nasus as Hellhound, 
Firefang Warwick as Ifrit and 
Volcanic Wukong as Sun Wukong while he is locked in Lao-Tzu's cauldron. - Some inspired from forest fire:
