Since every Riven is different. What does your muse do for survival/shelter. Is she a wandery type or just kinda sticks to one area i.e., towns/outskirts just outside of the territory of Noxus?
// Ayye, a very interesting question!
Riven is a wanderer. Even though she tends to always come back to the territory of Noxus and kinda ‘haunt’ the outskirts of the Empire, going as close of the capital as she feels she can while remaining ‘safe’, she traveled a lot as well. She remained a bit more than 1 year in Ionia, wandering in the country from the North to the South and the East to the West. She has witnessed sight of the City of Progress, not remaining there for very long because she felt too out of place there, and Bilgewater where she went only once in the hope she could gather some info about Noxus and what was going on there though it took her a week to understand she’ll get nothing from this place but problems and an other week to leave it. She approached from the Mount Targon, though she didn’t crossed the territory more than what was necessary, aware of how foreigners are welcomed in those lands and because of the climate, unkind to travelers like her. She traveled in the South of the Freljords as well though not for long because of the climate there as well. With the old map, I had her wandering in the territories surrounding the Serpentine River tbh. It was a place with no major city, outside of Noxus or Demacia’s influence with an easy to live climate and many forests plus the river assuring food and shelter to someone who knows how to hunt and survive in the wild. That’s where she’d be located most of the time, going back and forth between the villages/cities of the region. That’s for the second part of the question.
Now the first part.Riven knows how to hunt and to survive in an hostile environment. She doesn’t need any outside help as long as she doesn’t get sick or get hurt too badly to hunt/defend herself alone. She knows how to hunt and what, at first, was a simple knowledge of where and how to find shelter from the rain became an habit of always noting locations and places that she could use as a place to install her camp if she needed to.The only time she will go back to a village/city is either because she needs something nature can’t provide (soap, bandages, new clothes, w/e foods she’d feel the envy to eat if she has some spare money), because loneliness is getting to her and she needs to feel company (even if she will most likely just remain in her corner and not talk to anyone), or because she wants to know what’s happening in the world and especially in Noxus, to know if there is an occasion, a possibility for her to do something.
To make it short, she is a wanderer, but she does stick to a (very large) area unless she has a reason to go somewhere else.
