How can I say no to such an auspicious offer?
Amara agreeing to Jayce's deal, Everybody Wants to Be My Enemy
Amara was an influential merchant in Piltover, holding the position of Guild Merchant. However, she was fated to perish at the hands of Ambessa Medarda after she revealed herself to be a secret member of the Black Rose, a clandestine sect that harboured a feud with the members of her clan.
History[]
In exchange for Amara's "generous" donations to the Academy, several Council members helped ensure that her trading business was extended certain leniencies at the borders. Thus, she was one of several people affected when the newly appointed Councilor Jayce Talis, in his desire to ensure the safety and protection of the Hexgates and prevent corruption from affecting this, ordered the enforcers to more strictly inspect all merchandise that went through the gates.
For this, Amara conferred with Councillor Bolbok about their possible action or other possible arrangements. As Jayce had made several powerful enemies targeting him, Councillor Mel Medarda advised Jayce to stand down and make his own deals with them. Jayce agreed, and when Amara showed reluctance, he told her that if she invested in Hextech research, she would have access to new developments as they became available. Amara eagerly agreed.[1]
Amara asks for a private meeting with Ambessa Medarda and during the meeting she reveals that she is part of the Black Rose. She uses her magic to restrain the other woman along with her guard, and attempts to kill the two. Ambessa breaks out of her hold, and stabs Amara to death. Her death is blamed on two Zaunite assassins.
Characteristics[]
Personality[]
Amara is a cunning and persuasive lady. She uses her talents to try and persuade others into doing things to benefit herself, though Mel Medarda considered her to be harmless. Concealed behind this nature, however, was a ruthless and determined member of the Black Rose, which Amara sheltered from those around her as a clandestine sleeper, living a double life in service to the cabal and their mission. Upon revealing herself, Amara exhibited confidence in her abilities and those of her order, warning Ambessa not to insult her intelligence when the other women asked if the death of her son was not enough to satisfy the Black Rose. As an agent of the organisation, Amara demonstrated the same flair for ruthlessness in combat that she did in her business deals, taunting her enemies, who she mocked for thinking that the Rose could not reach them inside Piltover. Even when on the brink of death, Amara remained unwaveringly devoted to the organisation that she sacrificed her own life to serve, declaring that her own demise was meaningless and that Ambessa should have taken the chance to end their feud when it had been offered.
Appearance[]
Amara is a fair-skinned elderly woman with white hair held up in a bun, red eyes, thin eyebrows, and angular nose. She has a purple dot of make-up in the center of her forehead. She has numerous golden earrings, purple lipstick, mascara, and purple eyeshadow. Amara wears purple and golden robes.
Abilities[]
- Arcane powers: Amara has Arcane powers from being a part of the Black Rose, which consists of red space-like tendrils she can use to her liking.
