Brackern

Surrounded around the Shuriman Continent are several clans of Brackern, including clans in the Shuriman desert.

Dormun

• Dormun 1
• Dormun 2
• A depiction of a Mwatis

1/3

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

• A Xer'Sai known as Rek'Sai
• Kai'Sa fighting Outerbeasts 1
• Kai'Sa fighting Outerbeasts 2
• Kai'Sa fighting Outerbeasts 3
• Kai'Sa fighting Outerbeasts 4

1/5

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

• A Ralsiji
• A Shuriman Camel 1
• A Shuriman Camel 2

1/3

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

• Skallashi
• Skallashi in The Great Sai
• Skallashi at The Zoantha Cascade
• Skallashi near The Sun Disc
• Skallashi in Nashramae

1/5

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.

Original Leona: Base Skin

1 / 26-Aug-2020

Level 1

She stood amidst them as she prepared for battle--radiating light, bedecked in crimson and gold, her eyes like embers. As the rising sun crowned her head in light, each Solari present lowered their eyes, not in shame, but in deference to their shining leader.

Level 2

This was what Leona had prepared for. She knew she would find 2Diana fleeing down the mountain, retreating before the light of the sun. She breathed deeply to still her fluttering heartbeat, willing it silent with grim resolve. This time upon their meeting, she had the upper hand; this time, she would face her old friend head-on.

Leona's Morning Light

"She is our unflinching leader in the heavens, the blinding flash of our weapons at noon, and the unquenchable fire that burns in our hearts."
- 3 Solari Priestess

Edit

Battle Academia Leona: Common Skin

Striking fear into her classmates' hearts, one flipped tray at a time.

Features:

• 2 new artworks

This skin is available for purchase.

700 / 06-Oct-2021

Level 1

Leona had hoped Labrys Academy would prove a worthy challenge, where she would learn and grow as a valiant protector, even amonst the unruly student body. Her hopes were met early, often and to her frequent dismay, unexpectedly.

Level 2

"Overreacting? Preposterous. You called this a food FIGHT. Ready yourselves accordingly, or fall!"

Edit

Corrupted Leona: Common Skin

Mortals cannot withstand such gross incandescence.

Features:

• 2 new artworks

This skin is limited: From the Corrupted Event Pass 2022.

31-Aug-2022

Level 1

As day broke, a warm calm suffused Leona's entire spirit. How had she not realized it sooner? The Sun’s brilliance belonged only to the chosen, the righteous, the worthy...

Level 2

...And it was her divine obligation to punish any who dared look upon Her light with undeserving eyes.

Edit

Solar Eclipse Leona: Common Skin

A Sun-imbued shield fears no darkness.

Features:

• 2 new artworks

This skin is limited: From the Eclipse Knights event pass 2023.

13-Sep-2023

Level 1

Resurrection of the Old Gods looms. The Order's most important fight lies ahead--and Leona knows that those who cling to the mysteries of the past invite only sin and sacrilege. She cannot tolerate doubt, even if it comes from the woman closest to her heart.

Level 2

"Behind, darkness. Ahead, a burning path. We take the Sun for our sacrament, and find our purpose by the light of the radiance within."

Edit

Notes

• Until Patch 1.13 Solar Flare was marked as "Common" despite being uncollectible.

Trivia

• The flavour texts and artworks of level 2 2Diana and Leona depict them when they finally confronted the other. Both of the artworks are from the other's point of view.
  • The shadow of Leona can be seen in Diana's artwork.
