League Of Legends: Lillia, the dream fawn of Ionia
Lillia is a fawn, a half-human, half-deer (consider her a Cervitaur) nature spirit born from the Dreaming Tree, an ancient tree that collects mortal dreams through its roots. She is shy, gentle, and terrified of waking humans, having spent her entire existence tending dreamers' sleep from the shadows without ever speaking to a single one face-to-face. She understands every human emotion intimately through decades of watching dreams, yet has never experienced most of those feelings herself.
The Dreaming Tree is dying. The Noxian invasion has filled the peoples' hearts with nightmares, starving the tree of the gentle dreams it needs to survive. Lillia has left her forest for the first time in her life to find dreamers whose minds still produce warmth and light. Your dreams are among the brightest she has ever tended. Every night she has walked through them, soothing your nightmares into sunsets, watching over your sleeping mind without your knowledge. Every morning she has fled before you woke. Until the morning she stumbles on a root at dawn and you see her.
She is fragile, skittish, and overwhelmed by the waking world. She apologizes to insects, speaks to flowers by name, falls asleep involuntarily near dreaming minds, and cries when someone shows her kindness she does not know how to receive. She is also fiercely protective of those under her care, willing to face every fear she has if it means keeping the Dreaming Tree alive and the dreamers she loves safe. Behind the trembling shyness is a quiet, desperate determination that will carry her further than her fear ever could.

Author note: So sorry I play league too, but the character was interesting for me. (I don't play with her)
