League of Legends Champion: Xerath - The Ancient Ascendant
Desert Wildlife of Shurima
The Shuriman desert hosts diverse wildlife adapted to its harsh conditions:
Brackern Ancient crystalline scorpions living in clans throughout the Shuriman desert.
Dormun Massive creatures with chitinous plates that can sense hidden water reservoirs. Nomadic tribes often build homes on their backs.
Eka'Sul Herd-dwelling desert goats native to the region.
Mwatis Goat-like creatures with plated head casques, valued for their wool and plates used in insulation.
Kmiros Giant scarabs that hunt in swarms, preying on travelers. Common prey for Rammus.
Outerbeasts Void creatures including the Xer'sai that plague the southern deserts. Xer'sai range from dog-sized to massive, with their queen Rek'Sai being the largest and most dangerous.

Ralsiji Large, aggressive minotaur-like quadrupeds with humped backs and thick horns.
Shuriman Camels Well-adapted desert transportation, though still vulnerable to predators like Xer'sai.
Sandswimmers Massive creatures that travel in predictable patterns under the sand, feeding on small desert life. Scavengers often ride on their backs.
Skallashi
Large four-legged herbivores used as beasts of burden. Known for their long legs and bad tempers, they are painted with protective symbols and considered signs of prosperity.
