Legend has it that Amumu is an ancient Shuriman being, cursed with eternal loneliness and a deadly touch that brings decay. While his true origins remain uncertain, he is believed to be a Yordle who has become deeply embedded in Shuriman culture.

Several legends surround Amumu's identity:

  • A young prince quarantined due to a deadly disease who accidentally killed his only friend
  • A cruel emperor cursed by the Eye of Angor after being trapped in darkness
  • The first Yordle ruler of Shurima who became a beggar seeking true friendship

Amumu appears as a small figure completely wrapped in dark green bandages, with permanently tearful yellow eyes. His curse gives him several supernatural abilities:

  • Immortality (has existed for thousands of years)
  • Cursed Touch that causes decay and death
  • Control over his bandages as weapons
  • Eternal loneliness due to his deadly touch

To this day, Amumu wanders the deserts of Shurima searching for companionship, though his touch brings only death. His sorrowful tale has inspired countless stories, songs, and myths across Valoran, including "The Curse of the Sad Mummy."

The most recent account comes from Khaldun, who claims to have survived an encounter with Amumu in an ancient tomb. According to his tale, Amumu's touch caused his arm to decay and fall off completely, though he lived to tell the story.

While Amumu's true nature remains a mystery, his eternal quest for friendship continues, marked by tragedy as his curse prevents him from ever finding the companionship he desperately seeks.
