“Arcane,” a creation by Christian Linke and Alex Yee, captivated audiences with its stunning animations and complex narrative. Explore the delicate balance between the prosperous city of Piltover and the oppressed undercity of Zaun. Baylon's character Loris adds another dimension to this complicated world.

Baylon couldn't reveal any spoilers about the final season. Instead, he shared his perspective on what makes “Arcane” resonate with viewers. He points out that “the show delves into the gray areas of morality.” No character is purely good or evil; They are driven by their circumstances, their past and their desires. This complexity makes them relatable.”

He further elaborated on the depth of character development: “Take Loris for example. He is full of secrets and his motives are often unclear. But beneath the surface there is a story, a struggle, that shapes his actions. It’s a challenge and a joy to bring such a multi-faceted character to life.”

Baylon also acknowledged the incredible talent involved in the production, including fellow voice actors Hailee Steinfeld and Ella Purnell, and praised their contributions to the show's success. “The energy of collaboration is incredible,” he shared. “Everyone, from the animators to the writers to the voice actors, is committed to creating something truly special.”

With the final season promising even more twists and turns, fans are excited to see how the stories of Vi, Jinx and the residents of Piltover and Zaun will end. As Baylon suggested, “Expect the unexpected. This season will push the boundaries even further, exploring the consequences of choices made and the enduring power of human connection.”
