Valadr Arsen and Elyse Darktune.

There was once a man who dreamed of being a famous writer, but he was no good and all of his works were never recognized at all. One faithful day he was given an offer by the devil, that the devil will make him famous in exchange for his happiness. That man doesn't know what to say but it is what he really wants so he grabbed the offer and made a deal with the devil. That young poet become really famous, all of his works has this quaint feeling of sadness from them that he was called "The Poet of Melancholy". A year after he met a very beautiful woman named Elyse Darktune and he fell in love with her. Elyse is a pianist and she is known for her dismal music. The 2 shared a passion for melancholy and this is what bonded them most. The 2 become lovers and they decided to get married. At the day of their marriage the devil appeared and took Elyse's life. The poet cried in anguish and he swear vengeance against the demon who tricked him.

Fueled by anger and the desire to kill the demon that tricked him, the poet honed his abilities and ventured to the dark arts. He mastered the art of controlling puppets as well as the art of necromancy for he is so desperate to bring his beloved back to life. It was not so long til he earned the highest level in the art of necromancy, the art of phylactery and then he became a powerful lich. He created a puppet and stores a part of Elyse's and his soul into it, making him immortal as long as it is not destroyed. Since then he wandered Runeterra as a master puppeteer challenging everyone and learning everything he could master in order to kill the demon that killed his beloved. During his travels he met an old mage that though him how to control his anger and use it as a weapon, and with his desire for vengeance he saw this as a powerful weapon. After he gathered much power he called for the devil to appear and challenged it to fight with him, the devil answered and had a fierce battle with the poet. The devil though he had the upper hand until the poet releases his true power by using channeling his anger into material form. His puppet Elyse bursts into humanoid creature with wings, these are called Furies. They fly around the poet and shared his lust for vengeance. Then he directed the furies towards the demon and the demon was devoured and it vanished from the world. Since then he was left with nothing but sorrow but he's adventures brought him to one place on where he could show everyone his abilities, at the institute of war. Together with his partner Elyse they enter the league of legends and he used the name Valadr Arsen.
