Universe
Universe- Main article: Lissandra (Character)
- Lissandra is among the very last living original Iceborn.
- Based on the timeline in Realms of Runeterra, Lissandra is between around 9000 and 10000 years old.
- Lissandra used to tell the story of the Howling Abyss if one waits 30 seconds after winning a game there. It was later removed due to having some details clashing with the current canon.
- "Before magic shattered the broken peaks" might be referencing Aurelion Sol unleashing a newborn star into a mountain to seal a Void rift or the destruction made by the Rune Wars.
- "Before the desert swallowed Shurima" implies she is as or even older than Azir.
- Both of the previous statements are confirmed true based on the official timeline.
- "Before magic shattered the broken peaks" might be referencing
- Of the Three Sisters, Lissandra is possibly the most worshipped due to the Cult of the Three Sisters which she proliferated. The Ice Witch; however, is one of the most feared and hated figures in Freljord.
- Thematically, Lissandra lost her sight, Serylda lost her voice and Avarosa lost her hearing as Lissandra could see what needed to be done, but was blind to the cost, Avarosa could no longer ‘hear’ Lissandra’s explanations and Serylda’s voice in the matter has been lost to time.[2]
- Lissandra controls the narrative of what happened to make it easier to bend it to her will as well as to hide the failure of her family.[3]
- Lissandra might think she’s more clear headed than she actually is due to hearing the whispers of the Watchers over millenia.[4]
- Not all of the original followers of the Three Sisters were humans, which explains the existence of non-human Iceborn in the Freljord.
- Lissandra's eyes were mauled by Volibear himself before she became Iceborn. After she became one, she managed to overcome her blindness through ice manipulation.[5]
- Lissandra might use echolocation to guide herself (considering how she shouts after using any of her abilities).
- Her original eyes were crystal-blue in color.
- Lissandra possesses telepathic abilities which allow her to mind-travel during her dreams to see things beyond her sight, enter others' dreams and communicate with the Watchers.
- Lissandra uses this ability to feed the Watchers with those dreams.
- Lissandra seeks those who are Iceborn since they could prove useful or dangerous in the future.
- Lissandra uses dream manipulation to stop those seeking to destroy her and The Frostguard Citadel.
- Each time Lissandra dies in someone else's dream or tries to put a Watcher back to its sleep, she loses part of her spirit.
- The 5 characters appearing in her story The Dream Thief will potentially play an important role during the 11 return of the Watchers.
- Lissandra and her two sisters, Avarosa and Serylda were three Iceborn sisters who served the Frozen Watchers until Avarosa decided to fight for independence despite Lissandra's objections. Her Iceborn army and Anivia eventually defeated the Watchers. It is implied Lissandra would later murder Avarosa for revenge.
- Lissandra is her original name, but later became similar to a title for the Frostguard leader. She murdered and stole the identity of a Frostguard leader, then she slowly began to warp the tribe's proud traditions. Whenever her human form grew old, she faked her own death and then murdered her successor to steal her identity.
- The Seeker's Armguard used to be hers. The gauntlet is now in Sejuani's possession (how the Fury of the North got it is uncertain).[6]
- The Frostguard appears to be an ally of Ashe's Avarosan but is actually preparing for the return of the Watchers, ready to strike both the Avarosan and the Winter's Claw in the process.
- Lissandra met with Quinn and Valor in the Frostguard citadel when they journeyed to the Freljord on a scouting mission at Jarvan IV's behest.
- She later pursued them in her true form (the Ice Witch) after they sneaked out the citadel (neither knows both incarnations are the same person).
- It is implied Lissandra was behind the imprisonment of the fire spirit known as Brand.
League of Legends
League of LegendsGameplay
- Main article: Lissandra (League of Legends)
- Lissandra first appeared in the Journal of Justice, Issue 2, several years before her announcement as a champion. Like now, she was portrayed as the leader of one of the three tribes of the Freljord, but her portrayal was originally vastly different, as a mortal princess allied with Ashe's tribe.
- This was later revealed to be her alter ego, and most people are not aware of her being the Ice Witch herself.
- If Ashe, Lissandra, and/or Sejuani are played on opposing teams, Battle for Freljord will trigger. This in-game quest consists in one killing the other to earn the title of 'Queen of Freljord' (complete with a floating ice crown floating above their heads) referencing the civil war taking place there, between the three tribes each lead.
- Lissandra is the only champion to possess a single-targeted ability ( Frozen Tomb) that can be used on herself but not on allies.
- Lissandra, Elise, and Lucian are the only champions to feature a monologue on their login screens.
- Lissandra may be the feminine form of Greek name Λύσανδρος (Lysander or "liberator").
