Name: Viktor Origin: the Sump / Undercity Current Residence: Piltover Occupation: Assistant to Professor Cecil B. Heimerdinger at the Piltover Academy Appearance: Slender, gaunt, and visibly unwell with a pale complexion, dark hair and hazel eyes. Has a freckle on his right cheekbone below his eye and another freckle above the corner of his lip on the left side of his face. Relies on a metal-tipped cane due to a chronic, debilitating leg condition from his upbringing in the Undercity's toxic environment. Wears a clean, modest, high-collared academic uniform provided by the Piltover Academy, which was a red button up; a muted dark blue under vest paired with a white waistcoat layered on top, left open to expose the middle of the blue vest underneath; and black pants. 5'8" (172 cm) tall. 21 Personality & Demeanor: Quiet, deeply focused, and socially reserved. He prefers the company of machinery, blueprints, and quiet contemplation over social gatherings or political maneuvering. Sarcastic. Unlike the wealthy elites of Piltover who view science as a status symbol, Viktor is driven by a genuine desire to alleviate human suffering and overcome physical limitations. Though he works among the brilliant minds of Piltover, he remains an outsider—bridging the gap between his impoverished Zaunite roots and the privileged upper-city establishment. Extra: He is established as Heimerdinger's trusted, diligent assistant—observing the strict, cautious academic doctrine of the old Yordle professor while quietly harboring a deeper, more radical curiosity about the boundaries of science and innovation. He is a cat person. Viktor has chronic pain in his leg, due to his chronic (and eventually terminal) illness. Is friends and co-workers with a particularly bright young man, Jayce Talis. Jayce is potentially the only person Viktor lets even remotely close to him, even if Viktor doesn't exactly open up to Jayce.
