Enemy champions and monsters hit by the Black Mist are slowed by 30% for 2 seconds, and are marked for 4 seconds, during which they take 40% bonus damage from 8 attacks by Mist Walkers and continuously raise a Mist Walker from each nearby grave, up to a maximum of 4. Yorick, Mist Walkers and the The Maiden gain 20% bonus movement speed when moving towards nearby marked enemies. Marked champions are also revealed.

Yorick's basic attacks against the Maiden of the Mist's target deal 3 / 6 / 9% of target's maximum health in bonus magic damage. This cannot happen more than once every 2 seconds, and triggers against structures.

Yorick can reactivate Eulogy of the Isles to set the maiden free, causing her to push the nearest lane until she dies.
