Winterblessed Hwei wraps the painter in a regal winter look with deep purples, frosted blues, and gold filigree, while his brush ends in a shard of ice. Compared to base Hwei’s neutral scholarly robes and ink, this skin replaces his palette with aurora hues and snow motifs, and his presence feels colder and more ceremonial. Ability VFX use blues, cyans, and purples with snowflake and star shapes, and many effects glint with soft gold to match the trim. SFX are crisp and glassy, with light chimes and wind to sell the frost theme without being loud in teamfights.
The skin leans into the line’s winter mythology: Hwei is the herald of Polaris and a servant of the Aurora, a force that blesses one chosen soul each year. There is a playful nod to ice skating—he glides on a thin sheen of ice and a ghostly double mirrors him—giving his movement a smooth, ethereal feel. The recall continues the ritual vibe as he sets his scene in glittering aurora light. Winterblessed is Riot’s modern winter event theme, echoing older holiday lines but with a mystical, star‑touched style. The skin includes 9 chromas: Catseye, Emerald, Obsidian, Pearl, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Sapphire, Turquoise, and Wreathguard, which shift his cloak and effects toward different gemstone tints.
Release date: December 6, 2023. Since release it has not needed major updates, and it remains a standard 1350 RP skin in the permanent store.
Winterblessed turns champions into aurora‑blessed figures dressed in velvet, fur, and gold, with magic that looks like starlight on fresh snow. The line shares icy blues and purples, snowflakes, and celestial patterns across VFX and outfits.
