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.

Relations[]
Jarvan III Lightshield[]
Jarvan III is the father of 
Jarvan IV and is the former King of Demacia. His lineage can be traced even further back to his great-grandfather of Jarvan I, the first king of Demacia who was killed by 
Sion during the decisive battle for 
Noxus.
Xin Zhao[]
Jarvan IV sees Xin Zhao as his Uncle.
Sylas of Dregbourne[]
Sylas is looking to overthrow and kill the Demacian elite, including Jarvan. Jarvan IV was almost executed by 
Sylas and now is chasing him, believing Sylas is behind his father's death, although the king was already dead by the time he was found.
Garen Crownguard[]
Jarvan IV and 
Garen have known and become friends with each other since joining the military at young age.
Shyvana[]
Jarvan IV was saved by Shyvana after escaping and later helped her in slaying her mother and, out of gratitude, she earned a spot in the Demacian Elite Guard. Jarvan mentioned he loved someone that wasn't so different from the mages. It was later revealed to be Shyvana.
Luxanna Crownguard[]
Jarvan IV was arranged to marry 
Lux by her family to protect her from being persecuted for being a mage: as queen, she would have been too powerful to accuse. After she didn't show up for the betrothal ceremony, the matter was apparently dropped.
Tianna Crownguard[]
After his father's death, Jarvan is counsel of many prominent nobles—including Garen’s aunt, High Marshal 
Tianna Crownguard to prepare him for the days ahead before he can be crowned king.
