Gwen’s story started, as many champions do, with a goal: create a “peppy skirmisher.” Following Viego with a champion of similar seriousness and gloom would’ve left League feeling xX2edgy4meXx, so the team looked towards the opposite end of the edgelord scale, to joy. And then the three would live happily ever after.Įxcept that’s not how the story ended. Doll and maker would travel across the sea, experience royal life, and maybe, just maybe, marry the prince. Everything about her made by a girl who dreamed of one day going to the castle herself.Īnd maybe one day they’d get that chance. The doll’s dress lovingly crafted to match the intricate designs on the Camavoran warships in the harbor. Gwen, she’d have been called-a name that sounded so perfectly royal to her young maker. Who’s to say a Camavoran peasant girl never ran through a field of wheat with her selfmade princess doll in tow? They would’ve stayed in that golden field until day turned to night. So what’s stopping a Runeterran from having one? No matter where you’re from, no matter the circumstances of your childhood, no matter your race or identity or background. These toys, and the memories they awaken, are universal. ![]() ![]() Do you remember your favorite childhood toy? Was it a white teddy bear? Or a beefy action figure? Or perhaps a princess who reigned over Stuffed Animal Kingdom by day and fought crime by night?
