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.
The Void grows, and the Void adapts—in none of its myriad spawn are these truths more apparent than 
Kha'Zix. Evolution drives the core of this mutating horror, born to survive and to slay the strong. Where it struggles to do so, it grows new, more effective ways to counter and kill its prey. Initially a mindless beast, Kha'Zix's intelligence has developed as much as its form. Now, the creature plans out its hunts, and even utilizes the visceral terror it engenders in its victims.
 | "Kill. Consume. Adapt." — Kha'Zix |

Background[]
Early Life[]
Kha'Zix was born like almost all Voidborn as a product of the Watchers manipulating organic matter to create servants to infiltrate the Runeterra and provide intel for them. Kha'Zix is a particular Voidborn, a vicious creature seeking to become the ultimate predator in service to the Watchers. At birth, Kha'Zix began as fragile and ravenous, feeding on smaller, weaker creatures that wouldn't allow him to adapt and evolve fast enough. Desiring more, Kha'Zix hunted down more dangerous creatures, risking his life to satisfy his need to consume and evolve. Kha'Zix feasted on every kill, consuming their biological essence and eventually becoming a near-perfect predator roaming the jungles and devouring all types of creatures.
Modern History[]
Encountering the Kiilash[]
Roaming the jungles and savannahs near 
Shurima, Kha'Zix would encounter some members of a 
vastayan tribe known as the Kiilash; a culture of fearsome hunters living within the jungles. At some point Ponjaf, the tribe's chieftain at the time, would witness the terrifying Kha'Zix but unable to kill him. Kha'Zix would become renown by the Kiilash as a frightening Void-abomination as some of the most fearless would be unable to hunt him down, including Ponjaf.[1]
Hunted by Rengar[]
At some point Ponjaf's disowned son 
Rengar was sent to bring back Kha'Zix's head as a trophy, being the only way Rengar could truly regain honor and return to his people he got exiled from. Searching through the jungles that Kha'Zix is infamous for roaming around, Rengar successfully locates his trail and finds a pack of jungle raptors being devoured by Kha'Zix. While feasting on the essence of the raptors, Kha'Zix grows a pair of limbs out of his back, which slowly unfurl into dripping wings. While stealthily watching the creature from the trees, Rengar finally lunges for an attack but acts too swiftly, as Kha'Zix is capable of parrying his hunting knife and slashing at his left eye with his claws. Rengar, now missing an eye, sees Kha'Zix hold it up with his claws and devour it tauntingly at Rengar. Angered by this, Rengar triumphantly roars and claws at Kha'Zix with his barehands as the two share a violent, bloody clash with one another. [2]
Though Kha'Zix managed to survive the encounter, Rengar's succesful strikes caused Kha'Zix to feel his blood drip for the first time ever in his life. Because of this defining encounter against the Kiilash hunter, Kha'Zix now sees Rengar as his next target to consume and eventually evolve into a more perfect predator.
Appearance[]
Kha'Zix, the VoidReaver, is a terrifying embodiment of evolution and adaptation. He is a bipedal creature that stalks on clawed feet, his hunched posture conveys the image of a constant threat of violence. His body is encased in a chitinous exoskeleton, the colors of which reflect the unnatural hues of the Void - a chilling mix of purples, blacks, and occasionally disturbing swings of green. Glowing red eyes pierce the darkness of his head, which can take on insectoid or vaguely reptilian features. Sharp blades protrude from his forearms, their shape changing and evolving throughout the creature's hunts. These blades can be smooth and deadly or transformed into serrated instruments of destruction.
Personality[]
When Kha'Zix was created, he was a vicious but unintelligent voidborn that only knew how to kill and eat. However, his mutating abilities allowed Kha'Zix to develop a growing sentience, complete with an intelligent mind, fearless attitude, and a sadistic sense of humor. Kha'Zix has a lot of pride, seeking out "worthy prey" in hopes that he can grow stronger than them and eventually kill them, which was the origin for his rivalry with Rengar, as their previous battle was a stalemate and Kha'Zix now considers him an equal. While hunting the Pridestalker may not be such a wise decision on the surface, Kha'Zix remains determined in his goal, whether it be from arrogance or just as a result of his programming as a Voidborn to seek out and kill the strongest creatures
