"Wherever he goes, death and destruction are guaranteed. He's a mighty warrior who acts only in his own interests." - Jax, the Grandmaster
Appearance:
Lore:
The nameless man calling himself the Serpent Lord claims to hail from a world where civilization had advanced far enough to reach into space, that one day transcendent beings appeared and began to try to undo all of that progress. He was a former soldier turned mercenary who wanted to achieve immortality, one way or another, but when his world was threatened he answered the call to defend it. He had managed to defeat one of the two beings from beyond and was about to strike down the other when it suddenly used the last of its power to fling him through a portal, transporting him into a dark, empty void.
There he remained, drifting endlessly, until a surge of otherworldly power drew him through another portal into some distant world. The Serpent found himself in Runeterra, on the continent of Valoran, with nothing to his "name" but the clothes on his back. With no way to return, or any idea if there even was one, he decided to settle down where he arrived - a city-state they called "Noxus" - and tried to eke out a living as a mercenary. Eventually, he had heard so much about the "League of Legends" that he grew curious enough to go to the Institute of War and inquire about the matches that were were so highly regarded. It didn't take long for the Summoners to figure out that he was from another world, but rather than be forcibly inducted for their own surveillance the Serpent willingly offered to become a Champion, if only to prove his might against other powerful warriors and beings.

Note: This was my first ever Champion Concept, one based on an Original Character of mine. The first time went so horribly wrong because I was COMPLETE noob at this sort of thing. Now that I'm a little better and more aware of what MIGHT be OP, I've taken another shot at it.
Keep in mind that numbers aren't important to me. I can change whatever values and percentages that are necessary to balance this guy out. But his kit needs to stay relatively the same. Honestly, I wouldn't mind seeing this guy in League of Legends, if he ever showed up, under a different name and such.
Also, I'm still SO bad at dances.
Update 8/9/12:
I lowered the percentages of his Q to 2/3.5/5/6.5/8% from 2/4/6/8/10% and the percentages of his E to 1/2/3/4/5% from 5/6/7/8/9%.
