Hextech is a revolutionary magical technology that combines elemental and spirit magic, allowing anyone to wield magical power through rare hex crystals - not just those with natural arcane abilities.

The technology originated in early 900s AN when Piltover's Mercantile Clans harvested crystals from the Brackern, creatures native to Shurima. These "first crystals" contained immense magical power. The Ferros Clan later developed synthetic hex-crystals, though these were less powerful but easier to manufacture.
