Which color ring do they get, and what do they do with it? Post in the comments below! Listed below are the different ring colors and what they stand for:

http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/greenlantern/images/c/c4/Emotional_Spectrum-2.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20090127004258

White: Life Those who wield the white light have the capability to resurrect the dead, teleport, and can create constructs that can potentially last longer than those cast by other lights. The white energy comes from all living things, and all living things from it. White rings are automatically charged whenever the wielder performs actions that constitute "living".

Red: Rage A person who has felt great rage is able to tap into the red light. However, controlling the red light also renders the heart useless and spoils the blood of the wielder. In addition, the red light has the most profound effect on the mind of the wielder of all the lights, and renders most users to nothing more or less than a rabid animal.

Orange: Avarice Orange represents greed, capable of being harnessed by those whose greed knows no bounds. Those controlling the Orange Light are capable of stealing the identities of people they kill, and use them to create energy constructs subservient to the wielder.

Yellow: Fear Yellow represents the emotion of fear. A being capable of instilling great fear in others is capable of wielding this power.

Green: Willpower Green represents willpower. This color has the least amount of influence on the wielder, and can only be controlled by one who has an indomitable will that can overcome great fear.

Blue: Hope Blue represents the emotion of hope. The blue light is capable of being wielded by a being who can bring hope for the future to others. The blue light is the most powerful of the spectrum, but it is also the most difficult to wield and understand.

Indigo: Compassion Indigo represents the emotion of compassion. The Indigo light can be wielded by one with great compassion for other beings, used to heal the sick and wounded. However, compassion can also be forced upon a person, turning them into a slave that feels only the indigo emotion. The users of this light are capable of absorbing and utilizing the lights of other Corps as they would their own, and even to temporarily become one of that Corps

Violet: Love Violet represents the emotion of love. Those who are capable of great love, who have lost their loves, or been rejected are capable of wielding the violet light. Those wielding the Violet light may show others their destined loves via a Star Sapphire they possess, and create constructs out of Star Sapphire crystals as well as energy.

Black: Death Black is the color of the dead and emotionless. Upon latching onto a corpse, the Black Lantern ring will reanimate the body. The ring animating the person with all the memories and superhuman abilities (if they had any) of their previous life, but not their souls. Instead, they are malevolent beings who seek to murder even those they considered friends. Those dead or once dead are capable of becoming Black Lanterns.

Viktor as a red lantern? He is very controlled. He doesn't have a lot of rage (I don't think he is capable of rage anymore)

Hey what about Teemo?

DrathTurtle3143 votes

Thresh already has a lantern, and I'm pretty sure it's green.

But for the corps, he'd either be an orange(souls), black(hung by his own chain), yellow, or indigo would be forced upon him.

Laughing Fish2 votes

I think black would suit him best. Although he could make great use of a yellow lantern as well.

Balderdash10003 votes

I'm just going to go with my two most played.

Warwick would definitely be yellow, because, let's face it, "It's only fun if they run."

Meanwhile, Skarner would have to be blue. He carries the hope of his whole species with him as he tries to make Runetundra a place where they can live once agaain.

Skarner is one of my fave champs and I could not think of a ring for him. You made a good case for blue, well done

I always tend to comment about a limited pool of characters in these threads... Eh. Here you go. The two more interesting interpretations are last - I opted to use some alternate interpretations of the characters rather than the most common views.

Kayle - Green. Her willpower is indomitable; once she sets her mind on doing something it gets done. Even if it requires alienating her sister and fighting a war with her for tens of thousands of years. The fact that all she's come out of this with is a bad case of doubt and self-loathing means that she has some truly legendary willpower reserves. And a few convenient filler plot arcs!

Morgana - Red. She'd be black if she qualified for it, but black lanterns need to be physically dead, not just emotionally dead. As it is, she's pretty much a walking embodiment of hatred for everything that isn't herself. She may have started off with a noble cause but now she's in it pretty much just to get revenge on Kayle, and interacting with Kayle is the only thing that gives her any real emotion. She'd be an interesting case; she has the willpower to resist the red light's effect, which would make her an intelligent, high-functioning Red Lantern.

Shyvana - Green. She seems like an obvious shoe-in for the Red, given her Fury mechanic and all, but a look over her backstory shows that she doesn't necessarily like, enjoy, or give in to her rage. She tries to tame it, control it, direct it only in the way she wants, and given that the rage is such a huge part of who she is that requires a massive reservoir of will. Indeed, her Fury bar doesn't do anything ingame until deliberately invoked - She's the one in control, not her rage. Her desire to stay in control and fit in with society exceeds what she gets by giving into it. That would bump her - barely - into Green territory... but she'd be the one Green Lantern you don't want to piss off.

Viktor - Blue. Viktor is one of the few people on Runeterra that offers a genuine vision of hope for the common man. The Glorious Evolution doesn't discriminate; everyone is equal. Everyone deserves the same chances and opportunities. Everyone gets the super awesome cybernetics. Everyone should get the same chance to thrive as Viktor did. If they choose to. Male? Female? Fat? Old? Stupid? Commoner? Noble? Viktor doesn't care, and he's probably the only one who doesn't. He's dark, definitely anti-hero territory, but he's also one of the only people on Runeterra willing to give the little guys a good shot at a fair and decent life. That is, if he's not beating down eldritch horrors from the Void and turning them into kickass robots loyal to the Evolution.

Some very well thought out choices. I wouldn't have pegged Viktor for a blue, but that actually makes a great deal of sense.

Honestly, I could see Shyvana as being one of those extremely rare dual ring wielders. You are right that she needs indomitable willpower to be able to control her rage like she does, but when she does lose it, she tends to go all out.

And, if I remember right, there was a time when the Indigo Lantern Corps. was going around trying to force other Lanterns into their own. So I suppose Viktor might be able to be an Indigo ring user, what with his desire to convert everybody into techmaturgical cyborgs.

Syndra Hm... green one?

What she'd do? Same stuff except it would be green.

Laughing Fish3 votes

She always seemed more like an orange to me. I don't think she has the discipline to be a Green. But her lust for more and more power would make her a very deadly orange lantern.

Vistha Kai1 votes

I don't feel she craves for power in the traditional villain sense. Not any more than an archer wishing to improve one's aim.

Why would discipline be necessary for a Green ring? Description says "willpower". That she certainly has.

Laughing Fish1 votes

She is slaughtering people in her quest for personal power. How is that not a villain?

Volt Cruelerz1 votes

Where does it actually say that? The only person we know she killed was the guy that was keeping her locked in a castle. If there's one archetype you don't want to keep locked in a castle, it's the super-magical moody misunderstood teenage girl... which Syndra seems to be. She made a castle float because she felt like it within moments of the inhibition magic of the old man vanishing. She may well be a villain, but she's already one of the most powerful mages in Valoran, rivaled only by Azir (rebuilt a city in less than a minute), Xerath (turned half a continent into a crater), and Veigar (who absorbs the life force of everything he kills and can trigger what seem to be miniature Big Bangs). Of those, Azir and Xerath are basically gods, so the only other mage on her level is Veigar. Her only goal is to realize her own power. Stealing it from others as Veigar does isn't her style. The only real thing she might pursue would be ascension, but again, I doubt she'd try to pull a Xerath and attempt ascension without Azir's permission.

Vistha Kai1 votes

Again, I think, she didn't even mean to actually kill the dude. She just threw him at the wall too hard and the old man snapped. She wouldn't seek ascension - assuming she has any knowledge of Shurima, I bet some provincial temple didn't have a lot of books - just because of what had become of Xerath. He's after all a prisoner of his power. She would possibly study Xerath in some way, though.

PS. It's a temple, not a castle. Dubbed "Celestial Fortress", because, well... how many people can get there? She is the only known person in Ionia to be able to levitate. Zed and Shen can't fly, but ninjas. Yasuo commands the wind, so he most likely may be able to get up there too.

Volt Cruelerz1 votes

Well there is the taunt Xerath has for Syndra... "You seek power, Syndra. I am power." The other thing is that she's been out and about since she made the temple float, and one has to imagine that Azir, Xerath, and Veigar are all rather famous.

Now that I think about it, I suppose one could probably make something of an org chart of the mages of Runeterra.

Tier 0 [Ascended]: Azir, Xerath, Nasus? Tier 1 [Force Manipulation]: Veigar, Syndra, Vel'koz? Tier 2 [Exceptional Power]: Lissandra, Morgana, Karthus, Malzahar

0 being the Ascended because their power is just on a different level; for all we know, they are in fact omnipotent; there's no indication in the lore that they actually have limits on their power. 1 would be those beings that can bend the fundamental forces to their whims. 2 then would be those that are unnaturally powerful. Lissandra was empowered by the Watchers. Morgana isn't even human. Karthus is a liche. Malzahar is possessed by the Void. I suppose the next level down would include those like Ryze, Annie, and Lux that are relatively norrmal humans save for magical powers that put them head and shoulders above the majority.

Back to the point at hand though, surely after she was no longer bound to the temple she explored. News like "the demigod Shuriman emperor has been resurrected" seems like the sort of thing that'd cross national boundaries into Ionia.

Vistha Kai1 votes

She might not be bound to the temple, but there are two things.

  1. She is alone in her temple.
  2. She is scarred emotionally - "She refused to return to the society that had tried to steal her gift". So unless Zed would bring the news or her playing a "spy" in the nearby village, I don't think she would know what happens in the world. On the other side Azir who, I bet, has contacts with trading caravans could hear a story "about a girl who ripped a temple out and rised it high in the sky"
Argent Lyal XIII1 votes

I'd like to point you in the direction of Knuckles the Echidna and his nemesis, Dr. Finitevus. Knuckles, as many of us know, is the Avatar of Angel Island and the guardian of the Master Emerald. To invoke the majority of it's power, he has his own chant/oath: "The servers are the seven Chaos. Chaos is power, enriched by the heart. The heart is the controller. The controller exists to unify the Chaos." Dr. Finitevus, however, takes a different approach to the prayer to use the power of Chaos for his own, twisted ways: "The servants are the seven Chaos. Chaos is power, controlled by my will. The controller exists to enslave the Chaos!"

What's the point of this exposition? Knuckles is, by and large, the perfect example of a Green Lantern. He has the will to control the Chaos energy without letting it dominate him or allowing himself to dominate it. Dr. Finitevus, on the other hand, also has an amazing amount of willpower, but abuses it in his constant search for more and more power (without becoming an Enerjak), so he'd be classified more as an Orange Lantern, rather than a Green.

So while Syndra certainly does have a strong will, she also has an overwhelming desire to pursue and surpass the limits of her power, and will not necessarily hesitate to kill anyone who would try and prevent her from reaching that goal. She would definitely be a prime candidate for an Orange ring.

Vistha Kai1 votes

I have to disagree. Syndra does have an overwhelming desire, but to keep her power hers. Her greatest fear is losing that power, because it's her defining element and, in a way, only friend she had for all those years. Her surpassing her power limits would be more of a... playful experimentation of what she can and can't do. That doesn't have to involve killing people.

Argent Lyal XIII1 votes

Then by that logic I'd say that she would be more inclined to wield a Yellow ring. If what she is most driven by is fear, then it is fear that she should embrace.

Vistha Kai1 votes

Maybe I phrased that wrong. Everybody has something they fear. Her life isn't driven by fear. It doesn't control her. Maybe it's even not fear she felt, when the old man said, he'll take her power away. He was the first and most likely the only person in her life that tried to teach her how to embrace her power. Then he said his sole intention was to contain her. Betrayed, that'd be the word. Perhaps even a bit of pain he died, because despite what his intentions were, he helped her a great lot.

More like death I think

Ethereal Sun1 votes

Shen would probably use the white ring in order to preserve balance. I wouldn't be surprised if he was green either XD.

Laughing Fish1 votes

White is not balance though. It is life without having death. It is purity without reason. Shen would definitely be a green. His will power has been trained to perfection, and green is the most balanced.

Ethereal Sun1 votes

Well, in order to keep the balance he would use the white ring in case some one died an untimely death.

Ok ok I wanna do several lol. White: Soraka Red: Tryndamere (or since we're doing favorites, maybe Udyr) Orange: Dankplank Yellow: Shaco Green: Garen Blue: Jayce Indigo: Braum (or Soraka I guess...) or ZAC!! Violet: Anivia? Black: I guess Sion

Black: Karthus CHOSE death, over life.

Red: Kalista is implied to be a gestalt entity made up of vengeful souls. If that's not anger, I don't know what is.

Orange: Cassiopeia is an aristocrat whose former occupation was seducing people for more political power.

Yellow: Swain's job as high commander of Noxus, and his own existing abilities, makes him scary on multiple levels.

White: Maokai's reason for being is to restore life to the Shadow Isles.

Green: Tryndamere can will himself to not die when he should. I'd say that's quite enough to control a ring.

Blue: Braum is THE quintessential Folk Hero, the guy parents tell stories of to their children.

Indigo: Ashe has compassion as her tribe's hat, to contrast with Sejuani's social darwinism.

Violet: Strangely enough, Lucian. He's pretty much entirely motivated by the loss of his wife these days.

Not exactly my favorites, but my actual pool is a mite small.

Laughing Fish1 votes

That Lucian one is interesting, but makes sense. It is fun seeing the unique and clever picks people come up with.

Argent Lyal XIII1 votes

It really would be, because I don't think there's every been a male Star Sapphire. In fact, I think there was something about Star Sapphires only being women.

Either way, it fits, but I still think he's more of a Green Lantern than anything else.
