Yordle Land

Bandle City is the home city state of the Yordle race.

Yordles
As with the humans, Yordles are bipedal sentient beings. Furthermore, they too are characterized by a dependence on language and the creation and utilization of complex tools. As with humans, Yordles have male and female genders. They are decidedly shorter than humans; both male and female Yordles rarely exceed 1 meter tall, with most averaging around 0.8 meters. Their skin texture ranges from being completely smooth, to very lightly covered in fur, to ultimately being significantly furry. Their skin tone runs a much broader spectrum of colors than their human counterparts; while there is no direct scientific explanation for this, some consider this to be a sign of the Yordles’ attunement to Runeterra’s magical nature. Yordles generally have inferior vision in the normal spectrum of light than humans. Yordles, however, have much better hearing than humans and they are able to see into the infrared spectrum of light, where humans cannot.

Yordles require far more social interaction with their own kind than humans do. The vast majority of Yordles dwell in the southeastern part of Valoran behind the safety of the Sablestone Mountain range in their capitol of Bandle City. Yordles generally are a peaceful and amicable race, often marked with streaks of joviality and light prankishness; their moral compass is most often pointed toward goodness and benevolence. Their desire for social interaction drives them toward this ethos, as the mental health of a Yordle is very much dependent on the positive company he or she keeps. This does not mean, however, that Yordles are incapable of cruelty and evil. In fact, a Yordle who is kept in isolation for too long – especially from contact with other Yordles – runs the risk of becoming withdrawn and sullen. Some Yordles who already are centered more toward malevolence will become exceedingly so in due course. In fact, these Yordles will often twist their desire for social interaction into a desire to seek out others to inflict pain and suffering upon them.
