Riot Games has presented champion number 161 in League of Legends. It is a heroine called Nilah.

In the presentation trailer we can see Nilah, who seems to have a special relationship with water, blocking projectiles while she slashes at enemies with her water whip.

According to the game’s developer, Nilah’s backstory has a bit of demonic energy behind its happy facade.

Nilah is a woman of bombastic and unwavering joy. She is a warrior ascetic committed to a legendary order, known for harnessing the power of the ancient demon of joy to right wrongs and end great evils. She practices a strict code of rites and a ritual that connects her with this demon, her power is given in the form of glowing, incandescent water from the spiritual lake that serves as her prison.
