Rhaast is a Darkin and his current host is a young man named Kayn.

Background

(TBA)

Appearance

(TBA)

Personality

Unlike the other Darkin, who have a clear purpose for their carnage, Rhaast takes an almost childish joy in his quest for destruction and bloodshed. In his unleashed form, Rhaast is incredibly hammy and arrogant, maniacally laughing at his own evil deeds and appearing excited whenever he kills someone. Rhaast loves wisecracks almost as much as he hates humans, sarcastically joking that his dead victims should "walk it off" since he was hardly even trying. Despite this, Rhaast is capable of patience, as in his scythe form, Rhaast is able to tone back his bloodlust in favor of carefully manipulating Kayn over a long period of time. But Rhaast is always ready to murder, and will gladly tell Kayn to do so.

Abilities

• Hemomancy: Rhaast, just like any Darkin, has blood magic abilities, able to use blood as a weapon as well as a tool.
  • Body Manipulation: Rhaast can take over and change the form of the body of any mortal that wields Rhaast's scythe. In order to change the form of their body, however, Rhaast needs to kill others and use their flesh and blood to change his form.
• Ascension: Rhaast, just like any Darkin, started out as a Sunborn, which granted him immense physical abilities, gigantic size and access to celestial magics.
  • Immortality: Rhaast is immortal. His consciousness is trapped within his weapon, and the weapon is indestructible. There is no known way to permanently kill Rhaast.
• Scythe Proficiency: Rhaast is trained in the use of his scythe, which is imbued with magic of the Ascended. He uses this in battle and killed the many with it.

Short Story • 5 Minute Read

The Blade of Millenia

By Michael McCarthy

Kayn stood confidently in the shadow of the noxtoraa, surrounded by dead soldiers, and smiled at the irony. These triumphal arches of dark stone were raised to honor the strength of Noxus—to instill fear and to demand fealty from all who passed beneath them. Now this one was a tombstone, a monument to false strength and arrogance, and a symbol of the fallen warriors’ own fear turned against them.
