- Power, wealth, and glamour collide in the penthouses and exclusive clubs of Nox Vegas, where truly beautiful people hold the world in their palms. Yet as night falls on the city of lights, the knives come out—influence is the name of the game, and nobody likes to lose.
- The Debonairs
Longtime rival to Master Yi, Brand owns a competing chain of high end hotels and can be seen verbally sparring with his enemy at any gala that will tolerate them. Their battles are legendary… though the property damage alone skyrockets into the tens of millions.
With a blisteringly fashionable custom suit, the plans for which he burned, Brand stands on the precipice of something he has long thought beyond his reach: defeating his rivals and standing atop the greatest aristocrats in the world.
An infamous club host known for his daredevil attitude while performing envenomed party tricks, Draven is loved and hated by the Nox Vegas strip in equal measure. He possesses a talent for drawing both the curiosity of entertained onlookers and the ire of resort owners cleaning up after his messes.
Tailored suits, fitted vests, and an elegant gauntlet let everyone know the difference between Ezreal and the common rabble is simple. He makes this look good, and they… don't.
Savor that elixir. Highlight that heavenly white tux with a royal purple reserved for kings and queens who just don't deserve it. Because when you're an eighty foot tall petricite gargoyle, you're always the center of attention.
You're a scholar. You're an inventor. You're the man of the hour and the hour is now, yesterday, and tomorrow. Don't just be the father of invention—be the ivory god of substance, class, and style. It's you, Jayce. It's always been you.
Seemingly at every event in the city at once, LeBlanc is a ubiquitous presence throughout the strip—her unparalleled ability to shmooze matched only by her mysterious origins. There was a time when certain naysayers connected her to Crime City, but as they say… never cross Lady LeBlanc.
An enforcer at the exclusive Solari resort, Leona spends her days brutally ejecting unruly patrons from the premises and her evenings schmoozing up the city's ultra-wealthy. Even the rich and powerful know not to trifle with the Solari's chosen, lest they find themselves soaring out of the penthouse suite and down into the sidewalk.
An associate of LeBlanc's from her days in Crime City, now established as a mover and shaker in his own right. While the two cross paths on occasion, Malzahar has certain... outside interests to consider, and those business partners have promised him more than any mortal could ever dream of.
A powerful businessman of few words, often seen staring down on “his” strip from the comfort of his posh presidential suite. Despite his cold demeanor, Yi enjoys the finer things in life, and demands only the finest fits for his world-famous evening attire.
Don the yellow power tie and red rose boutonnière of a woman in charge—of herself, her destiny, and the two dozen spines she's going to snap in effortless, elegant style.
The most powerful (and powerfully dressed) man in Nox Vegas, Zed has been dabbling in more than fancy parties and cutthroat dealmaking. A new crowd from Crime City has entered his inner circle, granting this debonair gentleman an unbreakable stranglehold over the strip… and a dreadful new change in both mind and body.
History[]
From The Defender of Tomorrow in the Fashion of Today, exclusive to IM[]
“The room smells of mahogany and warm brandy, and I can tell by the leopard-skin hearthrug that the man I've come to interview is well-accustomed to company. They're finishing the shoot in the foyer where Jayce, the Defender of Tomorrow, has suited up in the high fashion of today. In the meantime, I have free reign of the illustrious inventor's sitting-room and I'm staring at the newest model of the world-famous Mercury Cannon-Hammer.
Slim and trim, and as stylish as the room I'm standing in, this iteration of Jayce's signature weapon has refined lines and looks as clean as Piltover's finests' sterilized holding cells – not that I've seen them, of course. When we met last night, Jayce told me with his trademark wit about the new effects that issue from the cannon's powerful blasts.
The door swings open and dapper Jayce strides with the effortless grace of someone who has more awards than bottles of wine despite a cellar the size of an Ionian temple. Dressed to the skies with a white overcoat and charming rose boutonniere, Jayce has picked up a confident swagger and a noticeable change in his voice…”
