21.02.2009
Once upon a time, there was a boy who wanted to prove he was a hero by slaying a fearsome monster—only to discover that the beast, a lonely and magical yeti, merely needed a friend. Bound together by ancient power and a shared love of snowballs, Nunu and Willump now ramble wildly across the Freljord, breathing life into imagined adventures. They hope that somewhere out there, they will find Nunu’s mother. If they can save her, maybe they will be heroes after all…

Trivia
Nunu, the Yeti Rider Nunu, the Yeti Rider
Nunu was named after Steve 'Guinsoo' Feak's dog.[citation needed]
Nunu is also a nickname for his wife.[citation needed]
The update in patch V7.16 that made it so the portrait of the selected skin would be used in the central portion of the in-game UI showed the portrait of Willump Willump instead of Nunu for every skin except for his Original Original skin.
Absolute Zero Absolute Zero was named after the theoretical temperature at which matter stops moving completely (referencing both slows the ability has) and has the highest single ability power ratio in-game (250%).
In the V1.0.0.115 April Fools' Day patch, he was jokingly listed to receive a skin called "Nunurf", referencing Urf Urf.
