Barbarian Sion

Avoiding every social cue his roleplaying group throws his way, Sion has repeatedly rolled barbarians only to die immediately after rejoining the table. At this point he's spent more time working on character sheets than actually playing Rift Quest, and it shows: his newest barbarian's backstory reads, “Is a barbarian.”

About Barbarian Sion

It brings a brutal, warrior-like theme to Sion, transforming him into a fearsome barbarian with a fierce and rugged appearance.

  • Theme and Design: Barbarian Sion adopts a barbaric, primal look, with Sion sporting fur-lined armor, bone accessories, and a rugged, battle-worn appearance. His skin has a dark, earthy color palette with browns, reds, and golds, fitting the theme of a savage warrior.
  • Special Features: This skin includes unique animations and sound effects, with Sion’s attacks and abilities making heavy, impactful noises as he swings his massive weapon. His ultimate, “Unstoppable Onslaught,” features additional visual effects to highlight the barbarian theme.
  • Lore Connection: The skin doesn’t tie directly into Sion’s lore, but it gives a reimagined, fantasy barbarian take on the character, showcasing a different version of him in an alternate universe where he is a wild, untamed warrior.
  • Popularity: The skin is fairly popular due to its bold design and the appeal of Sion’s transformation into a barbaric figure. Fans of the character appreciate the skin’s rugged design and enhanced combat feel.
  • Additional Features: Barbarian Sion includes entirely new voice lines that emphasize his ferocity and battle-hardened personality. The skin’s splash art also highlights his massive, imposing stature.
  • Fan Reception: Fans generally receive this skin well, especially for its bold visual design and the thematic shift from Sion’s usual more mechanical or undead motifs to a more primal, physical appearance.
  • Noteworthy Gameplay Effects: Barbarian Sion has a set of visually enhanced abilities, more impactful ground effect and his “Soul Furnace” unleashing a more intimidating aura. His ultimate has a new animation for its charging effect, giving a more aggressive and primal feel.
