A Champion is a humanoid who has gained some part of the powers of a Lord, either by slaying one themselves, or by killing or knocking unconscious another Champion. There are thirteen Champions, one for each Lord slain by humanoids[1]. In the modern day, transfer of the powers of a Champion is primarily performed during the Champion Challenge.
In Norn, the position of Champion also grants one governing rights over the corresponding city.

Re-manifestation of Lords
It is theoretically possible for a dead Lord to be reborn, if the Champion that possesses its power allows their body to be sacrificed as a vessel for its re-summoning. The consciousness of a Lord sometimes requests this of their Champion, although there are no known instances of such a rebirth actually occurring.
Notes
- ↑ It is unknown whether there exists a Champion of Soz'kir the All-Scorcher.
