The Big Thread of Skin Ideas
Hello to anyone that is looking at this thread. I had thought of many, many skin ideas that I have to just make a thread. Now I know there are threads like these that already has lists for skin ideas. But I would find it rather cluttered as I have many skin ideas, so I decided to make this as a thread for skin ideas on its own.
I will be listing skin ideas for many if not all the champions. I will be listing them in alphabetical order and how much they need new skins. I will also list a skin series ideas and let the people decide who should be in the skin series. All skin ideas that are listed in this thread are probably not my original ideas and has probably been thought of before. I will try not to include skin ideas that are already in-game or will be.
Level of need of skins:
0 - I MUST HAVE THIS SKIN;
1 - Does not really need, but it's nice to have;
2 - Does need as there aren't much skins that looks good, doesn't have many, or does have good skins, but are unavailable;
3 - Really needs skins, plain and simple.
(Please note that this is a very huge work in progress thread. These are all my opinions in which it should not affect your opinion in any way, so please feel free to comment on what it is that's bothering you.)
I greatly appreciate those who skimmed/read through this thread and/or commented.

Blood Iron/Iron Sand Azir
Parallel Lore - "Some times after Azir's rebirth, Sivir began to thought who was this being that saved her without cause. Sivir came upfront in Azir's presence, not knowing that Azir is her father. Though Sivir questions who is Azir and his intentions of saving her, all he said was "I only saved you cause you were in danger." Sivir questions him again, but he gave no words as he turned away. Sivir walked away in anger as Azir refuses to give Sivir any more words."
"As she walked around the restored empire, she spotted me and began to question me. "Who is that person and why did that person save me?" as she demanded an answer to her question. I told her, "He was the emperor, by the name of Azir, of this once fallen empire once known as Shurima. And now, returned back to the living, his majesty wishes to restore Shurima to its former glory." Sivir was still not satisfied with the answer I had given. "That does not answer my other question, why did he save me?" she questions with persistence. "I am sorry, I do not know nor can I tell you anymore.", I blatantly lied. Sivir looked at me with eyes that shows suspicions of me lying. However she did not continue in looking for answers and walked away."
"As she reaches the borders of the empire, there came a voice in which she did not recognize. "Well, well you're alive and well, thanks to the Oasis of the Dawn and most of all Azir." It was Xerath who was freed of his imprisonment not so long ago. "Who are you?!", Sivir yells as she readies her boomerang. "Don't act so defensive, we're only here to talk, my dear." Sivir immediately recognized the voice, it was Cassiopeia who betrayed her once before. "Cassiopeia!", Sivir shouted as she threw her boomerang at her. But was deflected by a huge figure who snarled at her, it was my brother, Renekton, whose mind was corrupted by Xerath. "Now, now dear is violence your only answer to everything?", Cassiopeia mocks her. Renekton then charges at Sivir with ferocity, but then Xerath fires a beam of energy between Sivir and Renekton. "Renekton, we are only here to talk, not to make a bloodbath.", Xerath said. Renekton slowly walks away from Sivir with his eyes still glaring at her with thirst for blood. "Renekton!", Xerath shouted. And so Renekton had stood besides them once more. "Now to answer your question, I am an acquaintance of his former majesty.", Xerath said. Sivir asked "So you know Azir then? If so, then you must know why he saved me." "Perhaps, perhaps not. If you would like an answer then come to the summit not so far from here.", Xerath said. "Now then we shall depart and hopefully meet you again at the site, princess.", Xerath said as he and the others moves away. "Princess?", Sivir confused of why Xerath said that. "Wait! What do you mean by "princess"?!" She yells. "As I said if you want answers then come meet us at the summit.", Xerath said as he chuckles. He and the others shortly fade into the desert."
"Sivir was tempted into getting answers yet was cautious as she was once tricked before. Though it was a dangerous thing to meet with them, she wanted answers. She went to the summit and found Xerath and the others. "So you decided to come, how brave yet naive of you. Now what would you like to know?", Xerath said.
"First of all, I want to know why did you call me "princess"?", Sivir asked as she keeps her distance. "Ah what a good question. You see you're actually the daughter of Azir.", Xerath answered. "Me? His daughter? How can I believe that when I barely remember who was my father. And the fact he probably died long ago.", Sivir replied. Xerath then said, "-sigh- Naive, naive. Like father and daughter. I suppose that it wouldn't be that believable. But you came this way so I suppose..." Suddenly Renekton charged at Sivir and disarms her. Cassiopeia then poisoned her into paralysis. Sivir screamed, "You snake! I knew I shouldn't have-". "Xerath did say naivety runs in the family, but I found that hard to believe until now.", Cassiopeia said as she laughs. Renekton wanting to kill Sivir was then stopped by Xerath which he said "Renekton, do not kill her yet. We need her, remember that." "WHEN WILL I SEE BLOOD?! I want to bask in their blood!", Renekton screams as he swings his weapon furiously. "In due time Renekton, but for now...I assume our little pup will send the message.", Xerath said in a high and mighty tone. I did not expect Xerath to know that I was following Sivir as his majesty's commanded. So I went to his majesty and reported what has happened.
"Emperor, what can we do to save your daughter, Sivir?", I asked. "There is nothing that I can hope to do that can save her except wait for what they will do.", Azir replied. "But what will we do then? If they captured instead of killed her, I assume that what they really want is you, my majesty.", I said in concern. "Though I am worried as much as you, I cannot panic as I am an emperor. And emperors must remain calm and see through these situations.", Azir adamantly said. Soon after, Xerath, Cassiopeia, and Renekton came onto the grounds of the fallen Shurima empire. And with them, Sivir motionless in the arms of Renekton. Azir did not waver nor hesitated to the arrival of them as he walks forward with soldiers risen by his presence. "What is it that you want, you traitorous magus?", Azir questions in spite. "It has been quite a while, former emperor. I see that even after that incident, you're still alive and well.", Xerath retorted. "Enough with your banter, tell me what is it that you want?", Azir demanded as he sent his soldiers closer. Renekton points his weapon at Sivir's neck and Xerath said, "I'm afraid you're in no position to demand as I have the last of your bloodline, foolish boy. Amazing how even after years, you're still naive. Now disperse your soldiers at once. Otherwise I cannot ensure the safety of Sivir."
"For a moment, it was silent like the barren desert of Shurima. I thought about what will the emperor do. Will he give up on saving Sivir or will he try to save her? Then Azir's words broke the silence. "I will comply to your request. But you must release Sivir before I do.", Azir said. Xerath exclaimed, "Did you not heard what I said? You're in-" Azir interrupted and said, "Before you say anything else, may I remind where you are standing? You are on the grounds of my empire and on it stands the Sun Disc and my soldiers. Do not think that if you kill your hostage, you will not get out of here alive." Again, silence. It was a prolonging silence which any rash action can lead to a bloodbath for both sides. As I ready myself in case the emperor is in danger, Xerath made a gesture towards Renekton and he lies Sivir down onto the ground. "Nasus.", Azir said. I walked towards Sivir to retrieve her. But then came Renekton and his blade lunging towards me, I barely guard against his sudden attack and soon, we were locked in combat. "Xerath! Not only did you waste my mercy, you made your worst enemy!", Azir yells as he sent his soldiers towards them.
To be continued.

Crazy Magician Shaco - Now everyone who had ever played him know his line "How about a magic trick?", what better idea for a skin for this champion than being an actual magician? A crazy one at that.
Recall - Puts his clone inside a big box and starts stabbing through it with swords (Reference to a common magic trick.)

Chef Singed -
0 - "Prepare your buns, Chef Singed is in the kitchen! (No puns intended) He will serve your enemies on a silver platter to his team! If you can't handle the heat of Chef Singed, get out of the Field of Justice!"
Concept - Pretty much the title says it all, but here is how I think it should look like. Singed should be dressed pretty much how a typical chef look like with a bandana wrapped around his head. On his back, I had two ideas: One being his bottle being labeled "Secret Sauce" and the other is a stove creating a delicious aroma (of death) (Which would also probably explain why people chase Singed. His burgers are delicious.) There should be cooking utensils hanging on his waist. His shield I was thinking of a silver platter or a giant spatula (So I can literally flip/serve my enemies with!).
Recall - -puts down his stove and starts cooking while humming-
Taunt(s) - "How would you like your meat? Medium? Well done? Or "smoked"?! -laughs-;
Using Ignite on an opponent - "Now that'sa spicy meatball!"
Encountering a Brand - "Hmm. I could use another stove."
Encountering a Fizz - "Looks like I'll be cooking/serving fish tonight."
Buying a Frozen Mallet (Random idea) - "This should do well for tenderizing."

-Skin Series Ideas-
Bouncer/Nightclub Guard series - As some of you may know the term "bouncer" known to many is for a person who guards at a nightclub, I think that I find this fitting for a good amount of champions. Viable champions: Zac, Vi, Braum.
Constructors series - Viable champions: (Foreman) Swain, Yorick; (Demolition) Jinx, Nautilus, Ziggs; (Workers) Yorick, Trundle
Crash Test Dummy series - Viable champions: Fiddlesticks, Blitzcrank, Nautilus, Amumu.
Fate Sisters series - Known in mythology as the Sisters of Fate, there are three roles. The Weaver, Measurer, and Cutter. Weaver - Elise, Zyra Measurer - Sona, Janna Cutter - Diana, Irelia
Paintball/Laser Tag series - Viable champions: Lucian, Jinx, Caitlyn, Graves, Miss Fortune.
Items/Removed item series - As you all know there are items in the game and removed from the game which are either popular or known. This skin idea is for nostalgia and remembrance of these items that will be incorporated into these skins. Deathfire Grasp/Blackfire Torch - LeBlanc, Veigar, Fizz Ionic Spark - Ashe, Varus Trinity Force - Irelia, Jax Stattik Shiv - Yasuo Madred Bloodrazor - Warwick, Udyr Wriggle's Lantern/Feral Flare - Jax, Nocturne, Master Yi, Udyr, Hecarim Spirit of the Spectral Wraith - Evelynn Spirit of the Ancient Golem - Nautilus, Malphite Spirit of the Elder Lizard - Skarner
Kings/Queens of the Jungle series - Now this has been on my mind ever since I joined this game, I heard that there are some champions that can jungle no matter how much the jungle has changed over the seasons and what better way to commemorate them than to give them a skin dedicated and based off the jungle? Viable champions: Master Yi, Warwick, Elise.
Urban Legend series Viable champions: Thresh, Fiddlesticks, Nocturne, Renekton, Gnar, Shaco
Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future(Yet to come) - This is something I have yet to see in the Christmas-themed skins, so I thought why not try to put it into the game.
Ghost of Christmas Past (Usually depicted as a white robed figure and in some way has a candlestick flame; or in another way a white robed figure with chains and locks): Brand(Who else, but the actual candlestick?), Janna, Syndra, Karma, Yorick, Thresh, Lissandra Ghost of Christmas Present (Usually depicted as a huge male figure who is joyous): Braum (No one else seems to fit this more than Braum) Ghost of Christmas Future(Yet to come) (Usually depicted as a grim reaper-esque figure): Kalista, Thresh, Fiddlesticks, Jax, Kassadin, Malzahar, Yorick
Rainy Day series - A skin concept involving an umbrella and a raincoat. Viable champions: Fiora, Orianna
-Questions and Answers- Q: Why are there no pictures/images? A: Well for one, I can't draw or design these skin ideas cause I'm bad at it. So I decided to just type how it should look like and let the people imagine how it would look like. The other reason is I think it would make it more crowded to read, so I left them out. Q: You do know that you can just post these ideas on open threads about these, right? A: If you have not read the introduction, I'll just say it here. I find it rather cluttered due to the amount of skin ideas I have.
