League of Legends Quinn Champion Guide: Complete History and Trivia
Quinn is voiced by Lauren Mayhew in League of Legends and Legends of Runeterra. Originally conceived as "Falconer," she evolved from the Eagle Rider concept, focusing on creating a unique teamwork-based champion inspired by Elite K-9 units rather than traditional fantasy ranger dynamics.
During development, the character was made female and given an androgynous name. Though initially planned to be called "Quinn and Valor," technical limitations led to shortening it to just "Quinn."
As a Ranger-Knight in Demacia, Quinn holds a prestigious position that required sponsorship from the Buvelle noble house. This sponsorship provided her with necessary resources and equipment for her duties.
Notable development and gameplay features:
- First champion name starting with Q
- Dance references Aaliyah's "Are You That Somebody"
