JHIN theory open to discussion and debate
This is my first time posting a theory thread. So I hope you like it.
After the release of the JHIN teaser I started to speculate on where this guy is from. Prior all the info we had were the deaths of Zed, Sonia, Garen, and VI. Now with the trailer and the revil of his face I have a theory on who this guy is.
Theory on why he kills.
The minute I saw Mind of the Virtuoso as the video title I looked it up online. Apparently a Virtuoso is an individual who possesses outstanding technical ability in a particular art or field. So the video must be in the mind of JHIN who sees himself as an artist. Making the video either a false reality of what JHIN believes is going on or the actual thing. However one thing is certain JHIN views his killings as an expression of art. Each body is not blown to pieces or left on the ground bleeding instead it is changed and given something, aka the rose petals or instantaneous tree growth and falling pedals.
Theory on why he killed Zed, Sonia, Garen, and VI
This one was tricky and most certainly is not answered in my theory of where he comes from. Zed, Sonia, Garen, and VI from what I know don't have a lot in common. They come from different backgrounds and from my knowledge I don't think they have meet (I started playing league in August so I don't know everything) however I think each of them represent something. Artist like to portray something in their works. They try to express emotion of an event or person. I think Zed, Sonia, Garen, and VI represent something that JHIN values and that is character. For Zed it is betrayal or revenge. For Sonia it is beauty or talent. For Garen its honor or bravery. For Vi its redemption or inner conflict.
Theory on where he comes from.
Honestly I this is more speculation, idk. Basically he is a human and a man. There for he can't be an entity like kindred. From what he looks like i don't think he is from Zaun because his art style doesn't fit. He doesn't look like he is a yordle (obviously). He doesn't fit into Ionia. Out of all the places I think he may be from Valoran or where Pantheon is from. Think about it in Fiora's updated image all you see is her, falling rose pedals, and glass plan with a rose picture in it. In almost every death seen where JHIn has killed someone there is rose petals or roses or some type of flower.
Here is my second part of evidence...
I looked at the people that JHIN killed in the trailer and to me they all looked like people from ancient grease and Rome. They have leather belts around there arms, some of them have togas, and others are wearing roman soldiers pants. (I am no expert but that's what I think they are). After looking through possible champions that had Greece looking locations. In Pantheons champion picture he is killing people in what looks to be an Ancient Greek or Roman setting. Along with that Pantheon finds Valoran insulting (idk if it applies because this is before when there still was a league of legends where people could fight). On top of this Pantheon is the Artisan of war. Artisan = a worker in a skilled trade or basically and artist. JHIN is also apparently an artist. Coincidence I think not.
Theory on his gun.
Is his gun magical? I don't think so, the reason why is that in the barrel of the gun there is a bore. Why is this significant because that means that he has to shoot some type of medal bullet because a bore is meant to spin the bullet and make fly strait instead of curving. He could be shooting magical bullets tho or be casting spells along with shooting people but I don't know if the gun he uses causes the roses and trees to appear.
TL;DR
JHIN is an artist in Valoran possible killing people because of the character and is connected to Fiora through the roses found on her picture. Possible connected to Pantheon due to him killing ancient Greece/Roman looking people.
