Since forever, one of the biggest mysteries in League of Legends has been who this "C" character is.
With the only information given to us being that Caitlyn has been continuously hunting
for leads on their whereabouts.
Let's start this video with one of my favorite league champions, Camille.
Camille is a champion shrouded in mystery, in case you did not know, she is several centuries
old due to her cyborg body, meaning she has seen a lot of history and probably even made
some of it, seeing how her job is mainly focused on assassinating royal and influential people.
So it wouldn't be weird if she knew who this "C" character is, really.
Now with the upcoming Swain visual upgrade, straight outta Hogwarts, he is able to hear
whispers from his demonic ravens.
And what he says to Camille is really intruiguing.
"My-my, does your dear grandniece know what 'C' has been up to?"
This grandniece of Camille's seems to be her favorite, according to Camille's background story.
But who is she, actually?
When you look at the three most piltover-like champions you get Camille, Caitlyn and Jayce.
Both Camille and Jayce get their Clans' names mentioned in the lore, Camille's being Ferros,
and Jayce's being Giopara.
As for Caitlyn, we never actually learn the name of her clan.
In Camille's lore, it is said that she "Installed" her niece as a sort of a "face" of her clan
while Camille is the one who is really in control behind the scenes.
This can mean that said grandniece doesn't actually know that Camille is in control,
let alone who Camille really is.
The ignorant grandniece might be just leaving the management to her servants, or at least
she thinks that's what she's doing.
So what if Camille's ignorant niece was actually Caitlyn?
Although it isn't stated anywhere that Caitlyn took leadership of her clan, it might actually be safe to assume so.
"Did daddy buy you that gun?"
As for who 'C' really is, this might sound like a stretch but hear me out.
So while we know that Camille had only one brother, we do not know how many children
that Brother had.
Building upon the previous theory of Caitlyn being related to Camille, that means that
Caitlyn was one of his grandchildren, or perhaps even his great grandchildren but the "Great"
is ommitted from the lore because it would be too specific.
Since we get no mentions of Caitlyn's siblings or cousins, it is plausable to think that
they are insignificant to be mentioned beside a name such as The Sheriff of Piltover.
Or that she's simply a single child with very few relatives.
After reading Camille's lore we find out that in order to keep her family going and preserve
their privilege she is prepared to do anything, even kill her own brother.
"Privilege must be preserved at all costs"
Since her favorite grandniece is called her "favorite" that means that there are other
ones that happen to be not-so-favorite.
What if one of her brother's children married another wealthy family, thus preserving the
family's privilege and prestige and giving birth to the "perfect heir", Camille's favorite
grandniece, Caitlyn.
While her brother's other child fell in love with a Zaunite, and they eloped together.
Being the person she is, Camille could not allow another heir born of Zaunite blood to
suddenly appear one day and contest against her grandniece, since that would make it harder
for her to be able to manipulate the clan behind the scenes.
So, the natural thing to do is to find the couple who eloped and murder them, burying
away their existence.
But by the time Camille had found them they already had a child.
And although she mercilessly murdered them both she felt pity on the child knowing that
she wouldn't remember her parents anyway, so why not just leave her behind in Zaun?
And scrolling through League champions' backgrounds guess who just happens to be from a Zaunite
orphanage while not remembering her past?
The Piltover Enforcer, Vi.
Think about it, she is in the same age range as Caitlyn, they both have Blue Eyes, and
her feet lead her towards Piltover eventually anyway.
Not to mention the brutal line Camille says to Vi that is.
"Ever wonder how you becamse an orphan?"
Now with this type of theory you would think, why wouldn't Camille just dispose of Vi once
she found out that she returned to Piltover?
Wouldn't everyone eventually find out about Vi's lineage?
And the answer to that question lies in Camille's other lines towards Vi.
Put yourself in Camille's shoes, a person who has lived for centuries no longer thinks
for just the few fleeting years ahead, she plans for the centuries to come.
What Camille most likely plans to do is reveal Vi's lineage to her when she sees that she
has matured enough, thus allowing her to take over as the assassin behind the scenes, the
way Camille is now.
Since as we can see Vi is still far too inexperienced and not to mention, reckless.
The reason why she would choose Vi for this position is because the girl is already adapting
to the use of technology as body parts, her gauntlets.
Which will allow her to adapt much faster should she perform the same surgery Camille
underwent long ago.
"Watch it, girl.
I am your future."
And her observation of Vi's inexperience:
"So direct, like most fools."
"Mmm, it's like looking into a crude, boorish mirror."
Since Camille herself was once rather inexperienced, or "a fool", being swayed by emotions such as Love and
the like.
Moving on.
In Caitlyn's background story it is stated that one day, she came back home to find it
ransacked and everything stolen, when she looked for clues she found the criminals one
by one, each only giving away the information that the orders were given to them by 'C'.
And when Caitlyn finally reached the location where her parents were kept, it turned out
that they were forced to work in a secret hextech laboratory for a rival clan.
Caitlyn rescued her parents and the leaders of said rival clan were arrested by the wardens.
But honestly, this story seems too strange to be true.
The entire thing seems fabricated.
What if Camille wanted the new face of her clan, Caitlyn, to gain more influence and
fame by causing an incident where she would come out victorious?
The fishy things about this entire incident start right from the beginning.
If the robbers were a rival clan there's absolutely no way they wouldn't know about the Clan's
daughter, who just happened to be missing.
The timing of the robbery was far too perfect, when Caitlyn was out of the house, so she,
and everybody else, wouldn't discover that the story is just one big play created by
Camille.
Second flaw is, even if Caitlyn just happened to be out when the robbery happened why didn't
they leave a few men behind to kidnap her when she came back?
Wouldn't her parents be more willing to listen to them if the rival clan had kidnapped their
precious daughter, Caitlyn, as hostage?
Third flaw is, why would you kidnap an extremely rich couple and have them WORK of all things?
Instead of taking them as hostage and demanding money in return?
Heck, making them work is a bad idea in itself since I'm willing to bet that they had no
idea what they were doing since their servants probably did all the work for them.
Fourth flaw is the entire thing went too smoothly, the criminals and clues appearing before Caitlyn
one by one, as if she was a mouse led by small pieces of cheese to eventually reach her destination.
Final flaw is the fact that it ended way too happily, you would expect a "secret" hextech
laboratory to have some powerful weapons and protection, but it wouldn't do to have Caitlyn
injured or damaged mentally by any of her parents' deaths since she is, after all, Camille's
favorite niece.
So what was the outcome of this whole incident?
Caitlyn gaining fame as the brave young girl who rescued her parents from kidnappers by
tracing clues like a professional detective, discovered a secret hextech laboratory that
she will most likely take over, and not to mention, utterly crushed the rival clan that
kidnapped her parents, meaning that her own clan will gain much more influence, privilege
and prestige, sounds familiar?
"Privilege must be preserved at all costs."
The 'C' behind the kidnapping was the first letter of Camille's name, she was the one
who gave the order to the Rival Clan to perform this stunt, the way she forced them to do
it can vary a lot, really.
Blackmail, Hostages, Threats, I can think of anything really, since that is the kind
of character she is.
However, after the incident was resolved, Caitlyn wasn't satisfied with the results
and pressed on looking for this 'C' character, which displeased Camille, since that wouldn't
benefit her or the clan at all, knowing Caitlyn's justice-driven character.
Thus comes Camille's following quote.
"Don't go looking for something you don't want to find."
And if you look at Swain's quote yet again, it can be seen in a totally different light.
"My-my, does your dear grandniece know what 'C' has been up to?"
Notice how his tone changes when he says 'C', this could be a way to mess with Camille by
subtly hinting to the truth which he knows because of the Raven's whispers.
It's like he's saying "I know that you're actually 'C' and I can tell your dear grandniece
so watch it."
I personally want to believe this Theory, because Camille just seems like a puppet master-kind
of Character which honestly just enhances her character for me.
Now I want to go and main her all over again.
But hey that's JUST a
No.. no, let's not steal other people's catchphrases.
