In Noxus, warriors known as
reckoners face one another in arenas where blood is spilled and strength tested—but none has ever been as celebrated as
Draven. A former soldier, he found that the crowds uniquely appreciated his flair for the dramatic, not to mention the spray of blood from each of his
spinning axes. Addicted to the spectacle of his own brash perfection, Draven has sworn to defeat whomever he must to ensure that his name is chanted throughout the empire forever more.

Background[]
Draven grew up as an orphan on the streets of Basilich until his hometown was conquered by Noxus. He and his brother Darius joined the Noxian army, but Draven grew steadily more bored with the drudgery of soldier life. Instead, he was drawn to the excitement of the Reckoners' gladiator arena. After playing an instrumental role in
Swain's coup over
Boram Darkwill, Draven was appointed the Glorious Executioner, punishing the enemies of Noxus with spectacular deaths.
Appearance[]
Draven is a tall, muscular man with fair skin and dark brown or black hair. He is variously portrayed with either brown, gray, or green eyes. His body and face are decorated with reddish tattoos, a series of thick, angular lines. His iconic facial hair is a long, thin mustache that extends past his jawline.
He typically wears light leather armor, accented with metal spikes and white fur. His weapons of choice are a pair of large, spinning axes meant for throwing.
Personality[]
With a knack for spectacle and showmanship, Draven is a bombastic, blustering personality and a famous crowd-pleaser during his gladiatorial "performances." He is brash and impulsive, often acting purely on instinct. In addition, he is almost cartoonishly arrogant, loving himself and the sound of his own name with extreme passion. As such, he often refers to himself in the third person. He is also an enthusiastic killer, executing his opponents in the ring with brutal thrill.
Abilities[]
- Master Axeman: Draven dominates the arena with his signature spinning throwing axes.
- Charisma: Draven is a natural showman who provokes uproarious reactions from the crowd.
Relations[]
Darius[]
Draven and Darius are renowned as the 'Blood Brothers' (Draven being the younger one). Draven looked up to his older brother for guidance. They are competitive brothers, with both generally disapproving of the way the other goes about his life.
Swain[]
Draven supported Swain when he was considered a disgraced figure, and aided him in his coup for the leadership of Noxus. For this, Swain considers him a friend and ally.
Tamara[]
It is revealed in The Whispering Doodad that both Draven and Warmason
Tamara Lautari harbor feelings towards each other that they refuse to express to one-another, much to the confusion of the observer.
Lulu &
Tristana[]
Draven had encountered both
Lulu and
Tristana, fought and fled from them during his return trip from Basilich to Noxus Prime.
Riven[]
Draven sees Riven as a mighty warrior worthy of his time in The Fleshing Arena.
2Karl[]
2Karl offered Draven an opportunity to renew the Reckoners' arena business, which he gladly accepted.
Viego[]
During Viego conquests, Draven challenged him and immediately lost, resulting in his
ruination.[1]

Short Story
“Here, doodad,” she whispers to the grass. “Pretty please, with sprinkles on top! I'll let you take us somewhere you want to go next.” The doodad—or whatever it's really called—doesn't respond, but I sense it rolling away from Lulu. Well, not really rolling, as such, more making itself be where she isn't.
