Lycan Mobile Legends Hero Guide
- Role: Carry, Durable, Escape, Pusher
# Lycan A hybrid warrior torn between his noble heritage and bestial curse, Lycan embodies the tragic consequences of political rebellion and dark sorcery. Banehallow was born into House Ambry, one of the most powerful noble families in the fallen kingdom of Slom. When the king's rule grew increasingly corrupt—his court infiltrated by sorcerers and opportunists—House Ambry led the first organized resistance against the monarchy's tyranny. However, their rebellion proved catastrophic; six thousand of their warriors marched on the capital only to be slaughtered in what became known as the Massacre of the Apostates. The king's response was merciless: he systematically eliminated the entire Ambry bloodline, deliberately sparing only two survivors—the house lord and his youngest son, Banehallow. To punish both the lord and his lineage, the king enacted a cruel ritual before his assembled court. With Lord Ambry bound in chains, royal sorcerers were commanded to magically transform the young Banehallow into a wolf, forcing the boy to attack and kill his own father as a demonstration of betrayal's consequences. The transformation succeeded, but Banehallow's mind remained human despite his lupine form. Rather than obey the king's command, he instead turned on his handlers, killing a dozen royal knights before escaping into the wilderness. Lord Ambry perished that night by the king's own hand, but not before witnessing his son's defiant act. Now, as the dual-natured Lycan, Banehallow wanders the realm as the sole surviving heir of House Ambry, seeking vengeance for the annihilation of his family and the kingdom's fallen throne.
