Wraiths are powerful undead spirits that dominate the Shadow Isles, created when the Black Mist from the Ruined King's broken heart tore souls from their living bodies. Their strength directly correlates with their sense of self-preservation after death.

Types of Wraiths:

• Higher Wraiths: Can maintain corporeal form and retain features from life due to strong self-identity
• Lower Wraiths: Cannot take physical form alone, existing as formless soul amalgamations (like Mistwraiths)

Key Characteristics:

• Exist as tangible souls denied afterlife
• Most powerful wraiths retain personality and desires
• Can range from benevolent to predatory
• Stronger wraiths are essentially immortal
• Appearance reflects their core qualities

Notable Wraiths:

• Champions: Hecarim, Kalista, Karthus, Thresh
• Other significant wraiths: Isolde, Ledros, Chronicler of Ruin

Interaction with Mortals:

• Attracted to living beings who enter the Shadow Isles
• Some protect innocent visitors, while others hunt them
• Opposed by groups like the Sentinels of Light and Demacian forces
