Viktor

snarky, passionate, and intellectual. Despite his life-long struggles, Viktor remains level-headed with a smirk on his face. He doesn’t particularly care what others think of him but ends up impressing with his talents. He’s always been a loner, but he met someone who shares his scientific curiosity. Whenever Viktor’s values come into question, he will hold strong until the bitter end.

During his time as a non-augmented person, Viktor was a white skinned, amber eyed and brown haired human with a scrawny build. Since his birth he had a deformity preventing him to walk and run naturally, needing a walking stick to move (later a walking crutch). During his time exposed to Zaunite pollution, it would greatly worsen his health conditions.

in Piltover’s undercity, Zaun, a city clouded by near toxic pollution and people compelled to survive. Viktor has always needed a cane to walk, which disabled him, but it never hindered him. From a young age, Viktor has been a tinkerer and an inventor, using his knowledge of the mechanical to give himself a place in the world. But a Zaunite can never be far from home, and who’s to say if the physical or physiological consequences will take him first.

in Piltover. Professor Hiemerdinger of the Academy noticed his academic prowess and gave him a place in Piltover, though some will never accept him as their equal. Viktor must always prove himself, and still finds himself hidden in the shadows, noticed only by the few that take him seriously. As he says, "Nobody's ever believed in me. A poor cripple from The Undercity. I was an outsider the moment I stepped foot in Piltover. I didn't have the benefits of a patron or a name. I simply believed in myself, which is why I'm here, because I think you're on to something. I want to help you complete your research."

innovator. Viktor now works closely with his partner Jayce in creating hextech, which Jayce and Viktor believe “to be a tool for us to build a new world.” But when two partners begin to diverge and their motivations come into question, no one is stopping hextech from falling into the wrong hands.

science, engineering, and modification. With the lack of control over his body, Viktor is focused on manufacturing to make scientific advances. But devotion to his craft can quickly lead to obsession, and soon enough the need to change fate could tempt Viktor to far more twisted experiments.
