Development
Development- Main article: Camille (Development)
- Camille is voiced by Emily O'Brien, who also voices Samira.[1]
- Her production names (Lady Em, The Gray Lady, The Left Hand of Piltover, Diver, Cyborg, MI6, Mary Poppins, Hookshot) were used to convey aspects of her personality.[2]
- During her original reveal, Camille had the surname Medarda. She was later renamed and placed in the Ferros clan before the official release.
- Camille and Kai'Sa were originally one champion named Husk, the Hive Commander, a female mercenary from Zaun who was once Caitlyn's partner before she defected after Caitlyn paralyzed her in a shootout.[3]
- Camille was created due to a need for a Diver champion. Hookshot was the only ability in the kit for a long time, the idea of blade legs came after the final design of Hookshot was settled.[4]
- An iteration of Hookshot could swing from a point of terrain and be recast mid-swing, this swinging could take the player halfway through Summoner's Rift.[4]
Universe
Universe- Main article: Camille (Character)
- Camille is classified as a Cyborg rather than a Golem, like Orianna. [5]
- Camille is around 80 years old in 996 AN. [6]
- Her Hextech heart has allowed her to age much more slowly than usual.
- She was 26 when she started experimenting with self-augmentation one year after her parents' assassination.
- Her augmented body, as well as her undercover shadow ops, have earned her the moniker 'The Gray Lady' (the Glorious Evolved's patron saint).
- Camille takes the role of a 'fixer' in service of the powerful clans, keeping Zaun's power in check from rivaling Piltover.
- The idea of body augmentation is not so strange to the people of Zaun and Piltover, though Camille's particular body mod would be widely considered extreme.
- Camille would never admit to anyone else her doubts about how far she could modify herself while retaining humanity. Her deepest fear is that because she's traded in her flesh for tools, others may see her as little more than a tool to be used.
- Her fighting technique originates from her favorite weapon, the Shon-Xan footed glaive.
- Her current grappling line and hook originate from the Western Serpent Isles.
- She masters several foreign languages such as local Zhyun from Southern Ionia and ancient Ur-Nox from Noxus, beside reading and writing Ancient Shuriman.
- She can play the cellovinna at a concert-master level, her favorite spare-time hobby.
- Her great-great-aunt is speculated to be the escaping woman in Dreamsong.
- In Awaken, Camille's eyes change colour when she approaches Jhin. This changing eye color is an allusion to her in-game passive, where she gains a shield based on the damage type of the champion she's attacking. That shot in the cinematic is her realizing that Jhin has set a trap. Her reaction is to first analyze the threat before jumping into action.[7]
- It is hinted that Camille knows who killed Vi's parents.
