You really don't know someone until you see them beg for mercy.
~ Evelynn.

Evelynn the Agony's Embrace, is a major antagonist and playable character in the 2009 multiplayer online battle arena game League of Legends.

A demonic being that has taken form since the Rune Wars, Evelynn is a deadly seductress who assumes the guise of a human female. Feeding off their lust and pain, after seducing her victims she then brutally murders them in various, twisted ways, usually as slowly and painfully as possible. Insatiable, Evelynn is always looking for her next victim. She is the arch-enemy of Shauna Vayne.

The 22nd champion to be added to the game, Evelynn was released on May 1, 2009, and was reworked on October 11, 2017. She is most commonly played as a jungler.

She was originally voiced by an uncredited Brett Pels, and is currently voiced by Mara Junot.

What Makes Her Pure Evil?[]

  • While she is a demon that literally feeds on suffering, this does not mean she lacks agency as she has an understanding of human desires and shaped her form and mannerisms to manipulate potential victims, and she tortures for her own enjoyment rather than sustenance as shown when she expresses disappointment when her victims die because she can't enjoy their suffering anymore. Additionally, one of her voicelines implies that she tried peace but it "didn't work out", suggesting she willingly chooses to be evil due to considering it a more entertaining lifestyle.
    • Her fellow demons are shown to be a similar case, as they are also able to put on facades to manipulate people (such as Solitude pretending to be pitiful to garner sympathy while in truth being a sadist who enjoys tricking her victims) and Vora is shown to struggle to control her hunger, showing that the other demons including Evelynn are restraining their own demonic instincts.
  • Despite she showed to be flirty and respectful towards Tahm Kench and Thresh, she only admires them for their sadism and wanting to improve her own methods, not to mention that these are only in-game interactions and are likely non-canon.
  • For centuries, she tortured countless innocent people to death to feast on their suffering by flaying them alive, eating them, and even possibly raping them as well, while trying to make the torture last as long as possible so she can relish their pain as much as she can.
  • She brutally murdered the patron and matron of House Vayne, then sadistically smiled at their daughter Shauna after she came back home to witness the gruesome sight, traumatizing her into becoming a vengeful monster hunter with a merciless hatred towards anything magical.
  • She seduces a man and tortures him to death while his wife watches so she can enjoy both of their suffering.
  • She killed many demons who tried to feed on her power, while binding the ones she took a liking to before making them lure mortals across Runeterra to be tortured until they were left as mindless husks.
    • While she spared the lives of her bound demons and allows them to indulge in their desires, she only gets along with them because of their mutual sadomasochism and their usefulness rather than any care towards them.
  • Her ultimate goal is replicate a cataclysmic event on the same level as the Rune Wars so she can enjoy worldwide suffering once more.
  • While the heinous standard of League of Legends is high, Evelynn stands out for her visceral torture of countless people and her ultimate goal to plunge the world into eternal suffering, as well as being the only implied rapist in the franchise.
