| − | Even in her youth, Karma exhibited almost superhuman composure. While her peers explored the torrent of emotions that came with adolescence, Karma meditated in the Lotus Gardens. She was convinced that the true path to enlightenment was a journey inward, to a place within the self, overlooked by most. She exuded such inner contentment that she quickly became a go-to mediator and confidante in her village. Her instructors used to say: "That girl can not only weather a storm, but calm it." Karma did not live extravagantly; her parents owned a local business selling antiques in the Navori province and they often struggled to provide for themselves, though they did so with cheery optimism. Her most prized possessions were two exquisite fans taken from her family's shop. |

| − | When [[Noxus|Noxian]] troops invaded southern [[Ionia]], her village was one of the first to fall. The villagers who survived the assault were captured by Noxian forces. It was then that Karma found her calling. By exploiting the insecurities of the Noxian commander, she negotiated the safe release of the villagers to the northern lands. She was present at the Placidium, where the Elders had considered surrender until {{ci|Irelia|Irelia's}} impassioned last stand renewed the Ionians' hope. Karma used this hope to solidify the Elders' commitment to remain defiant against the Noxian onslaught. For her devotion and charisma, Karma was made the figurehead of the Ionian resistance. She never compromised, and she shared every hardship with her people, even when it came to combat. By tapping into her inner resilience, she discovered that she could bring great force to bear against her foes on the battlefield. She modified her fans into lethal implements, and was tutored by {{ci|Janna}} to enhance their effects. The Noxians called her "The Enlightened One," a nickname she embraced, and one which they would come to dread. She joined the [[League of Legends|League]] to represent Ionia in the ultimate political arena. |

One known incarnation, Jakgri, had to leave his lover Watai in order to take on his duties as Karma. After his death, the collective spirit of Karma moved on to its current host: Darha, a girl who was raised in [[Shon-Xan]] and carried {{fi|Kathkan|Kathkani}} ancestry. At the age of twelve, she began to see visions of memories that weren't hers, and she tried to resist the visions at first before she could no longer handle them. Sent to rest at a healing hut, Darha recognized a group of monks from the Lasting Altar who visited her village to search for the next reincarnation of Karma. Just as they prepared to leave unsuccessful, Darha ran to them, crying to them about her visions and recognizing their voices from her visions. The monks realized that Darha's visions were the result of Karma's past lives moving on to their next vessel, so they adopted her as the new Karma. Leaving her old life behind, Darha was taught how to connect and communicate with the past lives of Karma, and adopted the traditional philosophy of promoting peace and harmony while leaving acts of evil to await their own consequences. But in spite of these teachings, Darha felt confliction of these philosophies, to the confusion of her followers. |
||
| + | When the forces of {{fi|Noxus}} invaded Ionia, Karma felt the true horrors of war as millions of Ionians were slaughtered by the Noxians. The voices within Karma told her to remain at the Lasting Altar and handle the conflict peacefully, but an even bigger urge to take action swelled in her. Feeling agonized by her internal conflict, Karma stood up and headed out to act. She confronted a Noxian commander on his war frigate by blasting him with divine energy, destroying the ship and killing many of the crew members. |

| + | Many years after the death of Jakgri, his lover Watai visited the Lasting Altar to receive Karma's healing after being damaged by a fall. Karma healed her leg, but Watai felt contempt towards her due to her pain towards Jakgri's death. Karma admitted to her guilt towards her involvement in the Noxian conflct and being unable to apologize to the people whose lives were ruined by the war, but had no regrets for acting upon Ionia's will to fight back. Watai showed Karma her ring which Jakgri had given her, where the two had to be separated due to having to live their lives far away from each other. Suddenly, Karma's eyes glowed the same color that Jakgri's had when he was Karma. Watai began to tear up, emotional towards the possibility of Jakgri's soul still being in there. Karma told her that he was now a part of the avatar's shared mind, and Watai started to resign to the thought that he had a new life to live. Suddenly, Karma was taken over by the collective spirits, whom reassured Watai that Jakgri loved her until the end and he wanted her to keep her ring. Watai thanked Karma for allowing him to come back, but Karma thanked her since Jakgri's voice had become silent for a long time after the war, but it was she who brought him back. Karma invited Watai to stay at the Lasting Alter for a few more days so they could both heal. By the end of the period, Jakgri's spirit became a part of Karma again, and Watai left knowing that not even death could stop the two's love for each other. |

No mortal exemplifies the spiritual traditions of 
Ionia more than 
Karma. She is the living embodiment of an ancient soul reincarnated countless times, carrying all her accumulated memories into each new life, and blessed with power that few can comprehend. She has done her best to guide her people in recent times of crisis, though she knows that peace and harmony may come only at a considerable cost—both to her, and to the land she holds most dear.

Background
Early life
Karma is an ancient spirit of Ionia which has guided the Ionian people for many generations, taking the form of many human incarnations throughout history. One known incarnation, Jakgri, had to leave his lover Watai in order to take on his duties as Karma. After his death, the collective spirit of Karma moved on to its current host: Darha, a girl who was raised in Shon-Xan and carried 
Kathkani ancestry. At the age of twelve, she began to see visions of memories that weren't hers, and she tried to resist the visions at first before she could no longer handle them. Sent to rest at a healing hut, Darha recognized a group of monks from the Lasting Altar who visited her village to search for the next reincarnation of Karma. Just as they prepared to leave unsuccessful, Darha ran to them, crying to them about her visions and recognizing their voices from her visions. The monks realized that Darha's visions were the result of Karma's past lives moving on to their next vessel, so they adopted her as the new Karma. Leaving her old life behind, Darha was taught how to connect and communicate with the past lives of Karma, and adopted the traditional philosophy of promoting peace and harmony while leaving acts of evil to await their own consequences. But in spite of these teachings, Darha felt confliction of these philosophies, to the confusion of her followers.
When the forces of 
Noxus invaded Ionia, Karma felt the true horrors of war as millions of Ionians were slaughtered by the Noxians. The voices within Karma told her to remain at the Lasting Altar and handle the conflict peacefully, but an even bigger urge to take action swelled in her. Feeling agonized by her internal conflict, Karma stood up and headed out to act. She confronted a Noxian commander on his war frigate by blasting him with divine energy, destroying the ship and killing many of the crew members.
The Ionian civilians cheered for Karma's victory, but the monks believed that she had misused her power and went against everything the spirit of Karma stood for, bringing dishonor to her past lives. Karma interrupted with a raised hand, with the spirit of Ionia intervening to defend itself when necessary. She realized that the true way to keep harmony was to accept that the world was changing rather than ignoring it. As the Ionians ended up stirring into conflict as a result of the war, Karma dedicated herself to guiding her people to peace, while condoning action to be taken when necessary.

Many years after the death of Jakgri, his lover Watai visited the Lasting Altar to receive Karma's healing after being damaged by a fall. Karma healed her leg, but Watai felt contempt towards her due to her pain towards Jakgri's death. Karma admitted to her guilt towards her involvement in the Noxian conflct and being unable to apologize to the people whose lives were ruined by the war, but had no regrets for acting upon Ionia's will to fight back. Watai showed Karma her ring which Jakgri had given her, where the two had to be separated due to having to live their lives far away from each other. Suddenly, Karma's eyes glowed the same color that Jakgri's had when he was Karma. Watai began to tear up, emotional towards the possibility of Jakgri's soul still being in there. Karma told her that he was now a part of the avatar's shared mind, and Watai started to resign to the thought that he had a new life to live. Suddenly, Karma was taken over by the collective spirits, whom reassured Watai that Jakgri loved her until the end and he wanted her to keep her ring. Watai thanked Karma for allowing him to come back, but Karma thanked her since Jakgri's voice had become silent for a long time after the war, but it was she who brought him back. Karma invited Watai to stay at the Lasting Alter for a few more days so they could both heal. By the end of the period, Jakgri's spirit became a part of Karma again, and Watai left knowing that not even death could stop the two's love for each other.
Ruination
- Main article: Rise of the Sentinels
When the 
Ruined King returned to the world of Runeterra, he resumed his search for his fallen queen. He would unleash harrowings across Runeterra in search of the fragments of her soul. Karma would defend the Lasting Altar against one of these Harrowings, but was nearly overwhelmed and corrupted by the king. The Harrowing would subside, when Viego obtained a soul fragment from 
Senna, but Karma would be left influenced by the king's magic. Karma would eventually come into possession of one of the fetters of Queen Isolde's soul, a silver flower.
The King would soon continue his search, with aid from his Yordle companion, 
Vex, by unleashing a global Harrowing, spreading Black Mist across Runeterra. The 
Sentinels of Light would arrive in Ionia in search of the fragment and were guided to the Lasting Altar by 
Irelia. Karma proposed hiding the fetter within an ancient Vastayan groves, guarded by ancient magics that not even the Black Mist could penetrate.
