Artist did some nice work.
Now for the awkward part: explaining, 20 years from now, what it is to a community of youths that never heard of LoL.
true. but to be honest I love Kindred's Lore so I will tell the future of how if you need a friend...just split yourself in two. >:D
Except Riot Stated that wasn't their Lore. That was just a story. Their origin remains unknown. And, Quite possibly, unknowable. ;p
That's not what's important. What's important is the beauty of the tattoo, and the beauty of the story that inspired it
thank you.
When concerning only the masks, I never know whether to refer to the Wolf Mask as Lamb (since she wears it) or as Wolf (since it's the Wolf Mask)...
In any event, in most cultures Wolf represents the fear of death, by contrast to the Lamb's acceptance. I'd say it's still pretty cool iconography even if you never mention Kindred or the League of Legends when explaining it to someone 60 years down the line.
Well, unless you're from The Freljord: then Wolf represents the Final Hunt. They run with the Wolf. One last chase. Lamb's "peaceful" death is considered weak; the death of prey. Olaf's entire lore is about him making sure he meets Wolf and not Lamb, to use an in-universe metaphor.
Lamb, as you said, is the acceptance of death. Olaf seeks death. If he succeeds, he will meet lamb. Wolf delivers finality to those who refuse death. If Olaf dies of old age, he will meet wolf.
That's my interpretation, at least.
He's from The Freljord. I assumed he would followed Freljordian customs and consider Wolf to be the good death.
Maybe that's the point though? Olaf and the Freljordians think that to have a good death they must die to Wolf, but in doing so they are accepting death and moving toward a death by Lamb. And maybe that's why Lamb wears the Wolf mask, because in running with the Wolf you're running to her instead.
That doesn't really make sense when you also consider that Wolf wears the Lamb Mask... you could easily argue that someone who meets wolf is the one who truly accepts death. I like that this is the sort of arguments that Kindred instil, though, but I think it's a little black and white (or boring) to think only Lamb is the "good death" and to say that "people who idolize Wolf are actually just accepting Lamb without knowing it".
C'est encore mieux alors, cela nous permet de se faire sa propre signification. Kindred est tellement douce et loup si agressif cela montre l'harmonie a l'état pure.
Cette réponse semble être quelque peu datée et non dans une langue que je connais. Je pensais que Kindred avait déjà abordé ce sujet. ;P
her: "and this kids points to tattoo is Kindred from LoL." kids: "but nobody ever plays that champion since the game has 666 champions and old ones are weaker than new ones." her: "and this is why your generation cant have nice things!" kids : cries
Pokemon has lasted 20years so league has a chance.
god, these are the people i play with on a daily basis?
ikr ;-; 2sp00ky
Love that tattoo! and your hair and jewelry and nails and everything So perfect (^3^)/
so much positivity. Thank you <3
That actually looks really good.
So, how does it feel to have a goat on your arm???
Your original post got deleted...but do you listen to LeagueCast Podcast or Triforce Podcast? Cause they had a listener mail in and say she was going to get this about a month ago and I wonder if that is you or not?
Never heard of it. So I guess not. sorry.
Unfortunately you're going to regret getting that in a few years.
I know for a fact I won't. I enjoy the concept and enjoy the artwork put into it. Thank you tho
I know for a fact I won't. I enjoy the concept and enjoy the artwork put into it.
Also as I stated before That would be reasonable but to be honest life is short. The reason death is so intriguing to me is because I was born with a heart defect and my life is already limited. I won't live that long and if I do kudos to me. for right now I'm living my life. But I can see where you are coming from and thank you for your concern :)
Your hair looks like Summoner's Rift, in a good way!
Love the tattoo and your hair! [slayer-pantheon-rainbows]
OMG its beautiful.... so is ur hair im jelous (; __ ;)
nice hair
Heh... I don't see kindred. I just see lamb.
will she regret this?
Pretty sure I won't :)
sick
thank you :3
Other mask on other arm.
yeah, my best friend I play league with will have the lamb mask on him.
That tattoo looks great!
The champion though? Not so great.
yeah. the lore and concept behind the champion is beautiful though.
thats what i love the most about kindred and this: (...) Lamb: "He took an axe and split himself in two right down the middle." Wolf: "So he would always have a friend?" Lamb: "So he would always have a friend
darky but so beautiful
Exactly! I just fell in love from that part right there.
The dual characters in one champion is just amazing. A champion is basically talking to itself while not talking alone.
Quinn was 2 champs in 1, now she's just quinndred with a bird
Most emo shit i've ever heard -.-
that may be true but there is reasons behind everything.
That's some sweet ink and I gotta say that you look absolutely stunning yourself... Question why did you decide to pick the darker side of the twos mask??
Because I'm a very negative and sad person. I'm emotional and rational sometimes and death interests me.
I fell you on that... While I may not have experienced the same situations that you've had in your life I can say that I have been to those deep dark places that can make you do things you would never normally do.. But even though you may have heard this a million times it really does get better... I honestly didn't think my life ever would but just one little thing changed all of that around... Also stay emotional it really does help release the stress and depression instead of just bottling it up like I did... good luck on life though and I hope whatever you deserve comes your way
Thank you so much for your words. It gets really hard and you just gotta stay strong but then some little thing triggers you and you break down. But thank you so much it means a lot, <3

You're going to regret that later in life.
