Brackern[]
Surrounded around the Shuriman Continent are several clans of Brackern, including clans in the Shuriman desert.
Dormun[]
The Dormun are gigantic, slow-moving creatures protected with large chitinous plates covering their body. In the harsh conditions of Shurima they have evolved to survive the perpetual drought by utilizing an unknown sense to locate hidden reservoirs of water. Incidentally, certain nomadic tribes have built themselves a permanent home upon the backs of these beasts where they clean the creature and hunt any airborne pests who venture near.
Eka'Sul[]
Desert goats that travel in herds.
Mwatis[]
Mwatis are goatlike creatures with large plated casques on their heads. Mwati wool and plate are prised for felting and insulation.
Kmiros[]
Gigantic scarabs that roam in swarms, looking for unfortunate travelers to feed on. They seem to be common prey for 
Rammus.
Outerbeasts[]
- Main article: Voidborn
Beside the Xer'Sai, other creatures from the Void, referred to as 'outerbeasts', can be found in the desert.
- Xer'Sai: Creatures from the Void that plague the southern deserts. They are the size of big dogs on average, but can be smaller or much bigger.
Rek'Sai, as the queen, is by far the largest and most dangerous of her species. Xer'sai burst from their small burrows and ravage anything nearby, to the detriment of desert caravans. Once dead, the Xer'sai decompose at an abnormally rapid rate and become inedible.
Ralsiji[]
Large and aggressive minotaur-like creatures. They are humpbacked quadrupeds with long limbs and thick horns.
Shuriman Camel[]
A breed of camels native to the deserts of Shurima and are used by caravans as well as common folk as primary mode of transportation. Despite being well-suited for lengthy travels in the desert landscape, they are still prey to a many predator such as the Xer'Sai.
Sandswimmers[]
Sandswimmers
Sandswimmers are massive quadrupedal creatures that traverse the Shuriman desert in cyclical patterns. They got their name due to their preferred method of travel. Their narrow bodies and webbed feet are perfectly design for swimming under the sand. They feed on bugs and other small creatures most desert beasts ignore. Scavengers will often memorize the predictable paths these creatures take, and jump onto their backs to ride as far as they wish.
Skallashi[]
The Skallashi are large quadrupedal herbivores. These hardy beasts of burden are common across Shurima, ideally suited to the harsh desert environment. Their key body feature is their long legs. Notoriously bad-tempered, they are nevertheless treated with great reverence. Their brown hides are often painted with sacred symbols of protection, and their horns hung with totems and charms. While these creatures are mostly used for travel and carrying heavy loads, on some larger skallashi people are able to built miniature rooms for more comfortable travel. To own one is often considered a sign of considerable prosperity.

Briar
Briar is a champion in League of Legends.[1]
Abilities[]
- Blood Frenzy's area of effect damage around the target does not apply bleed stacks.
- Head Rush can be cast on jungle plants, wards, and traps.
- It cannot be cast on structures.
- Head Rush's damage benefits from life steal.
- Head Rush is a non-following dash.
- It picks its dash destination ~100 units in front of enemy targets, 75 units in front enemy targets when already very close to them, 75 units in front of of allied targets.
- If already within 75 units of her target, she dashes to her current location, which takes 0 time but still triggers dash effects such as Sudden Impact.
- It does not force the target's resistance values to update immediately outside of the natural stat update cycle, which means it will typically still be mitigated by the unreduced magic resistance value.
- Notes
- Blood Frenzy acquires targets regardless of if they are visible or not.
- This does not apply to stealthed targets.
- This does not apply to
- If the main attack critically strikes, the cleave damage will do so as well.
- Briar uses Frenzy as a resource to indicate the remaining duration of the frenzy, in seconds.
- The following table refers for interactions while Briar is in her frenzy:
- While in the frenzy, Briar cannot control her movement nor declare who she attacks. She will automatically acquire a nearby enemy as her attack target based on a priority system, becoming forced to basic attack the target and consequently move into her attack range of them to do so.
- Disarming crowd control as well as any other lockout that would disable basic attacking will disable the forced attacks.
- Forced action crowd control will cause her forced attacks to be either overridden or disabled, depending on the actions being forced by the debuff.
- While in the frenzy, Briar cannot control her movement nor declare who she attacks. She will automatically acquire a nearby enemy as her attack target based on a priority system, becoming forced to basic attack the target and consequently move into her attack range of them to do so.

- Chilling Scream increases its damage by its minimum every 0.025 seconds over the duration.
- This ability will cast from wherever the caster is at the end of the cast time.

- Briar will track the target if they change locations.
- Briar lands 100 units in front of her target at the end of the dash.
- Briar will not initiate the second cast if she is being suppressed, is under resurrection, or is in the Realm of Death when her target is hit by the missile in the normal realm.
- Since Certain Death cleanses herself from all crowd control when the first cast hits, she will be able to start the second cast due to removing the suppression effect.
- Briar will still dash to the target even if they die before she reaches them.
- Briar gains the displacement immunity upon starting the second cast time.
- Briar will place herself onto the ground and interrupts displacements affecting her upon starting the second cast time.
- Hematomania's targeting priorities differ slightly from that of Blood Frenzy's:
- She will prioritize the marked target regardless of range and over all other units as long as it can be attacked.
- If the marked target is not available, then she shifts her priority to the nearest other champion, then large monster or minion, and then any other unit.
- If neither the marked target is valid or any other valid targets are close nearby, then she will prioritize targeting the nearest other champion, then large monster or minion, and then any other unit within a global radius.
- If the marked target is not available, then she shifts her priority to the nearest other champion, then large monster or minion, and then any other unit.
- She will prioritize the marked target regardless of range and over all other units as long as it can be attacked.
- Starting the second cast interrupts any spells that Briar is channeling.
- The mark will expire if Hematomania's buff is dispelled.
- Casting Blood Frenzy during Hematomania will not grant any additional bonuses nor will it override Hematomania's effects.
- Gaining Hematomania while Blood Frenzy is active will override the previous buff.
- The disrupt is 'wrapped' into a status effect that says the target is Silenced for 0.3 seconds, but it does not actually silence. It however makes sure that the disrupt is prevented by immunity to silences.
- This ability will cast from wherever the caster is at the start of the cast time.

Champion skins[]
- This article section only contains champion skins. For all associated collection items, see Briar (Collection).
A failed experiment by the Black Rose, Briar's uncontrollable bloodlust required a special pillory to focus her frenzied mind. After years of confinement, this living weapon broke free from her restraints and unleashed herself into the world. Now she's controlled by no one—following only her hunger for knowledge and blood—and relishes the opportunities to let loose, even if reining back the frenzy isn't easy.
