On my honor as a scout, I will strive:
To help every living thing thrive
To be a friend to all in need
To seek out every rock and tree
To be honest and kind and brave and true
To try my best in all I do
To meet every challenge with courage and wit
And to leave the world better than when I found it
So I pledge to uphold the Bandle Scout way
And serve yordlekind each and every day!
—The Bandle Scout Oath
Teemo has been a Bandle Scout for as long as he can remember—hopping through portals all across Runeterra in order to find people in need (badge 131: “Help a Stranger”), to befriend new creatures (badge 389: “Adopt a Pet”), or even to document strange new species of mushrooms (badge 248: “Fungology Expert”). For Teemo, there was no greater joy than spending his days seeking adventure and earning Bandle Scout badges, which was how he became the most decorated Bandle Scout the world had ever seen.
When other yordles saw everything Teemo had accomplished, his dedication and enthusiasm inspired them to become Bandle Scouts. What began as a single scout with a dream grew and grew until Teemo was handing out badges to intrepid young cadets and writing new copies of the Bandle Scout rules for their journeys across Runeterra (rules he’d luckily memorized, since his original handbook was lost somewhere in the waters south of the Serpent Isles while he was learning to tie sailing knots).
When one cadet surveyed yordles across Runeterra regarding Bandle Scout contributions (badge 567: “Market Research”), the feedback was unanimous—under Teemo’s fearless leadership, the Bandle Scouts were beloved the world over:
—Ava, Bandle Scout
“The Bandle Scouts have grown a lot. They put on this great big festival a while ago—had floats and everything. It was pretty neat. They even let me set off some fireworks!”
—Tristana, the Bandle Gunner
“I love those rascals with their missions and badges and adventurer’s moxy. It brings a happy tear to this old pilot’s eye.”
—Corki, the Daring Bombardier
“What the @#$%*^ is a Bandle Scout?”
—Kled, High Major Commodore of the First Legion Third Multiplication Double Admiral Artillery Vanguard Company
Teemo even introduced the world to Bandle Scout biscuits, now carried by scouts all across Runeterra. Their inventory includes over a hundred exciting and unique flavors, such as:
- Poro-Snax
- Old Cheese
- Honeyfruit
- Meat!
- Limited Edition Spirit Blossom
- Bilge Rat
- Helian Puff-Pastry (permanently retired)
- Shuriman Sand
- And many more!
Nowadays, Teemo is focusing on completing Bandle Scout missions of his own design. His most recent achievements are propagating a near-extinct species of exploding mushroom, and freeing all the cute little basilisks in a Noxian war camp (who looked so very sad inside their stables). He’s also researching the origins of the Bandle Scouts—who founded it? Made the first badge? Penned the first rule? And could it have been Teemo himself in a time long lost to his memories? Eh, he can’t remember! But no matter the mission, one thing remains constant, which is Teemo’s dedication to live by the words of the Scout’s Oath: to uphold the Bandle Scout way, and serve yordlekind each and every day.

A place in Runeterra
The yordles’ home lies beyond ordinary accounts of geography. Mortals tell conflicting stories about hidden paths, extraordinary sensations and a place where time does not behave as they expect.
Riot preserves that uncertainty rather than giving a single reliable traveler’s description. Follow its inhabitants’ journeys to understand the connections with the wider world. A visitor’s marvelous account is not automatically a precise map or a universal rule.
