Something has awoken in Runeterra - an ancient, terrible force known as Fiddlesticks. This ageless horror stalks the edges of society, feeding on terror and paranoia. Armed with a jagged scythe, this makeshift creature reaps fear itself, shattering minds and leaving broken victims in its wake.

Fiddlesticks appears as a shambling scarecrow made of scrap and shadow. Its "face" consists of glowing red eyes and rows of metal teeth beneath a torn burlap sack. Red-tinged shadows emerge from its body, particularly from its back, occasionally forming extra arms beyond its three existing metal limbs. At its core is a cage containing Fiddlesticks' true essence - a shifting mass of red eyes and shadows from which crows emerge.

As one of the primordial demons, Fiddlesticks possesses immense power:

  • Feeds on fear and horror
  • Cannot be harmed by normal weapons
  • Can shift forms and appear/disappear at will
  • Summons constructs like crows and copies of itself
  • Moves with supernatural speed
  • Is immortal as long as fear exists

While its true origins remain unknown, Fiddlesticks has recently returned to terrorize the Demacian hinterlands, drawn to rising fear among the populace. It doesn't understand its form or the words it repeats, acting purely on emotional instinct as it harvests terror from its victims.

Notable abilities include:

  • Demonic physiology immune to physical harm
  • Emotional feeding on fear
  • Immortality tied to fear's existence
  • Dark magic for summoning and spatial manipulation
  • Form shifting to reflect victims' fears
  • Superhuman speed and combat abilities

This ancient demon predates recorded history, being at least 10,000 years old. As one of the legendary Ten Kings (primordial demons), Fiddlesticks is far more powerful than modern demons like Evelynn or Tahm Kench. It continues to stalk the shadows, drawn to fear and ready to reap terror from any who cross its path.
