The Yordle sorceress is known for conjuring dreamlike illusions and fanciful creatures as she roams Runeterra with her fairy companion Pix. Lulu shapes reality on a whim, warping the fabric of the world, and what she views as the constraints of this mundane, physical realm. While others might consider her magic at best unnatural, and at worst dangerous, she believes everyone could use a touch of enchantment.
"The best path between two points is upside-down, between, then inside-out and round again." — Lulu | |
Background[]
Early Life[]
Stumbling into The Glade[]
Lulu, always a deeply empathetic and caring Yordle, once came across an injured bird and instinctively rushed to help. But as she reached for it, the bird transformed into a mischievous faerie. Laughing, it flew away, taking Lulu's staff with it, and she eagerly gave chase. As she pursued the faerie, the world around her began to shift and warp. Unbeknownst to Lulu, she had crossed into the spirit realm.
The faerie, who introduced himself as the Glade.
, eventually stopped and, with a flick of his fingers, transformed Lulu’s simple walking stick into a magical staff. He led her to a place of ancient, pure primordial magic, where Lulu’s own powers amplified. He led her toBandle City, Lulu's home, was a strange and magical place that defied logic, where time was unstable, and the natural laws of the material world did not fully apply. Yet the Glade was an even stranger place - it had existed long before the Yordles came into the world, and perhaps it was from the Glade that Bandle City itself arose.
Here, her imagination could manifest into reality, and she reveled in the freedom of creation. Lulu did not know whether Pix had brought her here because of a similarity of souls, or whether the Glade itself had called her, but she fell in love with this place instantly. She was so lost in the magic and wonder that she eventually forgot about existence of everything else. And time lost its meaning in The Glade - what seemed like mere days to Lulu could have been centuries or even millennia.
Playing pranks on Runeterra[]
Yet one day, as if awakening from a long sleep, Lulu found herself back in the material realm, unsure of how long she had been gone. To her surprise and delight, she found that some of her newfound power had come with her, allowing her to make small things large, change colours to those more pleasing her, and make creatures spontaneously fall asleep. To Pix's infinite amusement, she turned the most powerful beasts into tiny, confused frogs or squirrels with a single swing of her staff.
While she missed The Glade, Lulu set off on a journey across Runeterra, always searching for the elusive way back. Pix, however, claimed to have forgotten the way, but perhaps he did not wish to return yet. Together, they traveled from place to place, pulling playful pranks wherever they went. In lands of Demacia, known for their resistance to magic, she led a group of children away from their dull history lessons and transformed them into toadstools, to the horror of their parents and the local militia. The children eventually returned unharmed, but their wild stories were dismissed as fantasies.
In cold territories of Freljord, she found herself in the middle of a battle between rival tribes and decided to turn their weapons into flowers for her own amusement, creating chaos and confusion. More recently, Lulu has been seen wandering Ionia, playing among the glowing everblooms of Qaelin, and pranking the overly serious acolytes of the Shadow Order, who she thinks need to lighten up.
Though Lulu longs to return to the Glade and often misses it, she finds joy in the present, where each day offers new adventures and excitement. Besides, she has come to understand that the Glade is always with her, carried in her heart wherever she goes.

But when she touched the rune iron cage, she shrank back to her normal size, dropping the stone on Graves' foot and causing him to shoot a rope and accidentally free the other yordles.

Personality[]
Lulu had always been a caring and deeply empathetic Yordle, living in her whimsical dreams as if they were as real as the world around her. Her visit to the Glade, a realm of boundless primordial magic, only amplified these traits, transforming her perception of reality forever.
Nowadays, Lulu is an imaginative and carefree Yordle who lives in a constant state of wonder and playfulness, often blurring the lines between reality and fantasy. Her deep connection to the fae spirit Pix and her time spent in the Glade have made her both powerful and unpredictable. Lulu’s whimsical nature means she often acts without thinking of the consequences. Whether she’s turning enemies into harmless creatures or meddling in conflicts for her own amusement, Lulu sees it all as a fun game.
Despite the chaos she causes, Lulu is kind-hearted and means no harm. Still, Lulu’s complete disregard for logic or caution means that her spells can create as much confusion as wonder, tipping the balance between delight and disaster for those around her.
Lulu is fiercely loyal to her friends, even if her antics often leave them bewildered. Beneath her playful exterior, however, lies a hidden vulnerability—despite her cheerful demeanor, Lulu fears deep down that other Yordles don’t truly understand or accept her, and that they may even despise her. It's possible, that this underlying fear of rejection, along with a profound loneliness, lingers beneath her whimsical surface, driving her to seek companionship through her playful escapades.[1]
