Daughter of a punishing Polaris, Mel was born with an innate ability to harness the Aurora's magic. But this blessing came at a cost: the life of her mother. Now, Mel carries the family's legacy in her own way, leading with compassion and rewarding those who prove their loyalty.

Prestige Winterblessed Mel

Mel Medarda is the presumed heir of the Medarda family, once one of the most powerful in Noxus. In appearance she is a graceful aristocrat, but beneath the surface lies a skilled politician who makes it her business to know everything about everyone she meets. After an encounter with the mysterious Black Rose, Mel discovered the depths of her mother's deception and, for once, faced a situation potentially beyond her control. With newly awakened magical abilities, she sailed home in search of answers—and though many still seek to temper the light within her, Mel's soul remains forever defiant.

Mel Medarda has always had a keen eye for potential—and in hextech, she saw power that would forever alter the face of Piltover. For most, this technology would be unobtainable, but with her influence on the Council, nothing escapes her grasp. With hextech at her fingertips, there is no telling what she'll be able to accomplish.
