Catherine, the Expert Burglar
Attributes: Assassin, Melee, Stealth, Slow
Lore:
Catherine’s roots started out with petty theft on the streets of Noxus as a small orphan girl. She eventually joined a group of fellow thieves. They hit jewelry stores, banks and the occasional pawn shop. When they earned a reputation in Zaun, the government put out money for their capture. Catherine looked at the poster and smiled evilly. Dressed in descent clothes, she went to the military police and ratted out her teammates. The reward was enough to sustain her for a year, but she was not satisfied with this, she wanted to live in luxury. She got better equipment and started hitting bigger targets throughout Valoran. Luck was on her side as she achieved wealth from selling either to anonymous clients, greedy governments or the Black Market.
She ran out of luck when she decided to hit Zaun. She had heard of a scientist developing a meta material that could bend light, something that would be very valuable in the technological black market. When she broke into the lab, she felt a sharp pain in her neck as she has hit with a dart. Feeling numb and disoriented, she stumbled forward, knocking things over off of shelves and tables until she fell unconscious.
When she woke up, she was strapped down on an operating table. An old man stood over her grinning as he injected her with a dark brown liquid. Catherine felt pain in every part of her body as her body contorted and cracked. Her nails grew into claws. Her blue eyes turned a golden green like a cat. Her brown hair turned black. The scientist laughed and wheeled her still limp body into a cage, in a place where he kept other monsters. Fortunately for Catherine, she always had a plan of escape, the doctor had forgotten to check her hair. She pulled out a few pins out of hair began working on the lock. Catherine looked into the other cells and felt guilty leaving them. She unlocked their cells, they soon formed an angry mob and charged into the lab.
She and the other prisoners held the man against the wall demanding an antidote. He laughed and then bit down on a capsule from inside his mouth, in few seconds the man’s body had disintegrated into foul liquid on the stone floor. The creatures searched all of the different labs in the building to no avail of finding either the antidote or this so called meta material. It appears they had all been duped into coming to this place by the scientist. Catherine and the others went their own ways.
After Catherine had left Zaun, she laughed as she pulled the meta material out her bag and decided to keep it, even use it. Even though Catherine’s changes were strange, she could still blend in with the normal populace and the mutations had increased her abilities in the thieving business.
She turned her eye to Demacia a place where she hadn’t been before, but had artifacts ready for the taking. She enlisted the help of gullible but reliable local, who would be her so-called partner in crime. She began a spree of thefts and made her partner leave cards to confuse local authorities. But they called in an expert named Caitlyn from the city of Piltover to solve the crimes. After a few major thefts Catherine was ready to disappear. On their final heist, Catherine was waiting in the sewers while her partner ran away with Caitlyn hot on their trail. He went into a secret passage that they had learned about which led into the sewers. When he demanded his share of the money, Catherine turned around smiling as she showed him her sharp claws. He tried to run, but Catherine was faster. His body was never found.
Catherine despised the woman who had almost caught her. Catherine swore to kill the woman and found a way to do it . . . legally. The League of Legends, where she could earn money, get rid of Caitlyn and achieve any other sinister goal that her new League sponsor would have her do . . . for the right price.
