The Philos family knows how to sacrifice.

Most of the Camille family's wealth comes from a rare crystal. This crystal is taken from a Shurima creature, the Shell Race. And this Hex Crystal, also known as the "Primordial Crystal", contains powers that are usually only available in the hands of those who have a talent for magic. Camille's great-aunt and grandmother lost an arm during their explorations, and her sacrificial spirit became the family motto of Philos: "For my family, I will give up." ”

The Shell Humans are a finite resource, so Camille's family must find a way to multiply the crystals they have found. The Phros family made some covert investments in rune alchemy and chemical technology, and eventually developed a less powerful, but mass-produced, synthetic Hex Crystal.

There are gains and losses, and the crystal synthesis industry has always been considered to be the main cause of the haze in Zu'an. Not only that, but the Philos family was able to maintain their monopoly on this priceless commodity only through espionage, coercion, intimidation, and assassination, while also ensuring that their crystal production in Zaun was not interfered with, and that the family could maintain their position in Piltover's glossy Blue Wind Courtyard.

As the eldest child of the head of the Philos family, Camille received the best education possible. All of her personal tutors are exceptional personalities, not only have she learned many foreign languages, but she is also a concert-quality cellist. Camille also learned to read and write the ancient Shurima language while helping her father with his mining work in the Audien Gorge.

According to tradition, one of the younger generations in the family will be selected to become the chief agent, assisting the head of the family, and maintaining the long-term prosperity of the family at any cost. However, Camille's younger brother, Stivan, was born weak, so Camille replaced him. As Stewan saw that his sister had received more instruction and training, jealousy began to grow. And she became more and more adept at fighting, stealth, and interrogation.

When Camille was twenty-five years old, she and her father were attacked by a gang of augmented Zaun gangsters who were trying to steal priceless trade secrets. Camille's father died of his injuries, and her mother died of grief. Stewan became the head of his family, and he doubled down on research on the enhancement of human Hextech in order to prove himself a strong leader.

After a full year of mourning, under the watchful eye of Stivan, Hakeem Nedri completed the process of being a promising crystallographer from the seaside city of Berguin in Shurima, who became the chief mechanic of the Philos family.

Camille asks Hakim to perform a hex-augmentation surgery on her to push the limits of what a human cannot penetrate. Hakim fell in love with her at first sight, and the two worked together, telling Shurima's story together late at night, and their friendship grew stronger...... In the end, Camille responds to Hakim's feelings. Their romance was out of control, because they knew that the completion of the operation would mean their separation. Hakim will continue his research projects, and Camille will once again devote himself to his duties as an agent. On top of that, Hakim is more worried that when he cuts out Camille's heart, he might destroy her humanity along with her.

A few days before Camille's surgery, Hakim proposed to Camille and begged her to elope with him. For the first time in her life, Camille was shaken.

Stewan doesn't have this kind of struggle, he just needs Camille's execution to realize his vision. When he learns of this secret marriage proposal, he has a plan in mind - when Camille and Hakim are reunited, Stivan directs an attack on himself. When Camille sees her brother covered in bruises and blood, she realizes that this is what happens when an agent is distracted.

Hakim pleaded with Camille, but she didn't want to listen. "For my family, I am willing to give." She ended her romance with Hakim and insisted that the surgery go ahead as planned.

Only Hakim could make sure the operation was foolproof, so he had her heart gouged out with his own hands and replaced it with a Hex core - and he resigned. When Camille awoke, all she saw was the lab man she had worked with Hakim empty.

Camille put in the work. She made more reinforcements, including leg blades, hook locks, and other devices, and some began to wonder how much human part of the young lady was left. As the Philos family grew in wealth and power, so did Camille's mission, which became darker and bloodier.

Thanks to the heart of Hexco, Camille lives on in her youth. However, the years were not so lenient with her brother. But Stivan, whose body is getting weaker and weaker, has a stronger grip on the family.

Finally, one day, Camille discovers Stivan's shameless betrayal and realizes that his ruses no longer represent the best interests of the family. At that moment, she abandoned the last trace of her feelings for her brother.

She installed her favorite niece and granddaughter as the new head of the family, and Camille now controls both the family's public affairs and covert operations. As an expert in solving difficult problems, she has fully embraced her out-of-human body modification and the power of life and death that comes with it. It's just that the sad weeping that lingers in her Hex's heart may be some kind of unsettling omen.

Regardless, Camille doesn't want to sit at home, and her pleasure lies in precision-executed espionage operations, freshly brewed tea, and long walks through the haze.

Camille is the chief agent of the Philos family and a sophisticated humanoid weapon. She roams the fringes of the law, carefully maintaining the Piltover machine and the Zuan beneath it, keeping everything running smoothly. Agile and precise, any sloppy technique is an ugly act that must be forbidden in her eyes. Camille's mind was as sharp as the blade she carried, and she pursued the extreme, performing a massive Hex-augmentation surgery on herself. This also makes many people wonder whether she is a machine or a woman today.

The first sound I heard was the sharp scraping of metal against the stone. I was dazed, still immersed in the hazy darkness, but deep in my consciousness I recognized the voice: it was a blade cutting through a damp pebble. It's exactly the same as the file of my stonemason making quarrying marks on the cliffs. I was so nervous that the roots of my teeth trembled. I struggled to break free from the rope around my wrist as the fog cleared and the only thought left became clearer:

I'm dead.

There was a muffled grunt in front of me, and the crunch of heavy wood. I squinted and could probably see a burly silhouette. I guess Gordon Ansel was sitting across from him. That's it for the hired thugs. Looks like he's waking up soon.

"Okay, you're all awake." A woman's voice, calm and calm. "I was going to make tea.".

I turned to her, feeling half of my face swollen and painful, the corners of my mouth tense. I tried to move my swollen jaw, but there was a patina in my mouth. I should be thankful that I can still breathe. The air is filled with the smell of chemicals, as if a deep breath can scorch your nose hairs.

It's bad luck. I'm still in Zaun.
