Sejuani

Freljord

The Freljord (pronounced frell-yord) is a harsh and unforgiving land. Proud and fiercely independent, its people are born warriors, with a strong raiding culture. While there are many individual tribes within the Freljord, the battle lines are being drawn in a three-way civil war that will determine the future of them all. One tribe unflinchingly honors the traditions that have ensured its survival; another follows the dream of a united future, as foretold by a young idealist; while the third worships the power of an enigmatic sorceress. Freljord is also the only place where True Ice can be found.

Description

Sejuani is the brutal, unforgiving Iceborn warmother of the Winter's Claw, one of the most feared tribes of the Freljord. Her people's survival is a constant, desperate battle against the elements, forcing them to raid Noxians, Demacians, and Avarosans alike to survive the harsh winters. Sejuani herself spearheads the most dangerous of these attacks from the saddle of her drüvask boar Bristle, using her True Ice flail to freeze and shatter her enemies.

Story

Sejuani was born of a Freljord political marrige, daughter of the Warmother of the Winter's Claw, Kalkia. But her mother would quickly abandon the role of Warmother, instead pursuing another man she had her eyes on, leaving the tribe in chaos. Instead, Sejuani was raised by her Grandmother Heijan, a cold and uncaring mother figure who's expectations Sejuani could never seem to meet. The Winter's Claw was left poor from the neglect of Kalkia, but during a visit to the Avarosan, Sejuani saw how well people could have it under a competent warmother. During her visit, Sejuani was taken in by the famous warrior and warmother, Grena, who Sejuani learned had once bested Kalkia in a duel, an act that earned Sejuani's adoration. It was also here she met with Grena's only daughter, Ashe, who became Sejuani's best and only friend. Though things quickly turned sour as Grena started to openly question Heijan's treatment of Sejuani, an act which infuriated Heijan. Heijan cut all ties with the Avarosan and started expanding into the surrounding tribes, which only further weakened the Winter's Claw.Word reached Kalkia about the failiures of the Winter's Claw, which brought her return where she proclaimed herself Warmother again. Sejuani was enraged by her mother's return and started secretly plotting to overthrow her and become the new warmother. During an expedition, Sejuani once more met with Ashe, who was starving and alone in Ursine lands Frostguard had destroyed the rest of the Avarosan. Sejuani took pitty on her old friend and brought her back to the Winter's Claw, an act which the new warmother and the Frostguard did not take kindly. Sejuani told Ashe about her plan to overthrow Kalkia and asked for Ashe's help, to which she agreed and they both swore and oath, making them Battlesisters. Though this friendship was short lived, for unbeknownst to Ashe; Sejuani's plan involved raiding and destroying the neighbouring tribe, the Ebrataal Tribe, to steal their supplies. Ashe did not approve of this raid and the two former battlesisters were now sworn enemies. After Ashe's betrayal, Sejuani completed another raid agaisnt aNoxus Warship, hoping it would be enough to rally the tribes in support of Sejuani. During this raid, Sejuani freedBristle from the ship's slaughterhouse, who would become her most royal steed. This raid proved enough, and Sejuani returned back to the Winter's Claw to challange her mother to a duel, an act which was extremely taboo. Sejuani won decisively, killing her mother in the process.Sejuani was now the new warmother and did not waste a second, she immediately began raiding and absorbing nearby tribes while also throwing out the Frostguard. Sejuani had taken the Winter's Claw from the brink of collapse and ruin, and had turned it into the most feared and brutal tribe of the Freljord.

Iceborn

Iceborn is a rare magical alteration that makes the individual more resistant to the cold and grants them the ability to manipulate both True Ice and Dark Ice. It is the result of an ancient and terrible bargain made by Lissandra to grant those powers for her sisters and followers. The vast majority of known Iceborn are humans, though the Three Sisters had Iceborn followers from different races.

Winters Claw

Death stalks the Freljord in a thousand guises—with fangs, blades, numbing frostbite, and bitter starvation. To survive is to fight every death, crush every threat, steal every advantage, and each new dawn brings a choice to the Winter's Claw: do whatever it takes to survive, or die.
