Canes! should be around the hip/waist height. there are many different types of canes. for drawing and ideas, check out @cowsabungus for guides! Cane users are not frail, and many cane users can put their canes down for a moment, or longer.

Crutches! the type of crutch Viktor uses is an underarm crutch, however, as he only uses one, and he uses it full/most of the time, it will fuck his back and shoulders a bunch. If you're writing/drawing a modern au especially, Viktor would probably use forearm crutches, and 2 of them

Behavior! Firstly, canes are made of metal, and some of them can even be used as nun-chucks. they are excellent weapons, and a lot of cane users will jokingly/seriously hit people with their canes, or do the equivilent of "i'm not touching you" with their canes. Secondly, weaponized incomepetence. this can show up in many ways, for example, viktor may hand his cane/crutch to jayce, walk a few metres and then screech out [in public] 'HOW COULD YOU? GIVE THAT BACK?', or fall dramatically. other stuff, such as calling every minor incovenience ableist [something i LOVE to do], making people carry their shit for them, and using disability privleges to get a seat on a train and etc, are very common in disabled people, including me.

Actual usage. A person with a shit leg will usually put more weight on their good leg, so a support will either go, on both sides to even it out [such as a rollator/walker or crutches], on the good leg [not that common, don't do this w crutches, or on the bad leg, allieveating pain.

chronic pain. chronic pain sucks, and it often skews with your perception of pain. here are some examples. Footless Jo on YT [fibromyalgia], nearly died from a kidney infection because she thought the pain was normal, my friend E had a concussion and didn't realise for 3 days because of her migraines, and i once dislocated my knee, and didn't realise because i was used to pain.

braces. braces do not alleviate pain completely, but they help a LOT. KT tape is a godsent as well, same with compression items and heat packs.

always <33

Especially because the more he is used and controlled by the council as a whole, the more he is plastered about as some figurehead or poster boy of Piltover's progresses, the more he is draped in the gilding of false colors.

We actually never get to see him wearing his own House colors past his flashback with the mage, in which the majority of his little outfit is made up of the more humble color scheme.

The only thing he actually still owns in his house colors is the blanket he gives to Viktor, which can be seen in his childhood room and is made of the same material his mother wore during the blizzard for warmth.

Edit to add:

I'm adding this to the original post so y'all don't assume I just didn't analyze the literal BEST Jayce outfit in the whole series.

It's a mourning shroud.

While the highlights may have some blue to them (blue highlighting is very common in animation to keep things from looking dull or muddy) the midtone on his shirt is actually in the yellow field.

Also, no. The Talis House symbol is not red. It's brown and gold (sometimes with white).

Any red relating to the Talis symbol is BECAUSE of the color corruption of Jayce, not in spite of it.

The outfit still has meaning, but as I said in the post, he NEVER goes back to his family colors after being paraded around in the red, gold, and white.

This outfit is black, red, and silver. His armor is black and gold with an off white coat (to show that he's still doing this in a way for Piltover as well, probably.)

It's and end and new beginning. It's a rebirth.
