Pre-Death Orianna

Leyvn·Jul 9, 2015·8 votes·2,727 views

I don't necessarily have an idea of what the skin would look like, but I would personally like to point out Orianna is a champion that has such a lore that it would almost be wrong to not give her such a skin. Having her in her old, ballerina, or more so just human self would simply be great. I'm not an artist, so I can't necessarily design it. But as a player, I would buy a skin like this a million times over.

My ideas for this skin:

Have a ball built kinda toyish by her father, and have her with a joystick to control it. Humanized Redone voice to match a human girl Teens, I'm guessing, so more petite than and older and more developed

Just, please... Her lore almost demands it, and Kassadin has a "Pre-Void" skin, so I just figured, maybe...

There's a lot of talk when it comes to that or a Pre-Death Sion type deal, but maybe they could release a skin pack revealing some champions past forms, like Full-Fox Ahri or something.

Oh yes! This sounds like the best of ideas! I really hope a rioter comments on this! Oh, and not to mention. with Orianna's voice actor already being female, I'm sure they still have the original voice recordings on file. In order to make her voice the way it is now they obviously had to digitally modify it. They could just remove the filter that makes her sound like a robot and just use a normal person voice.

Thank you and please help this happen! Thanks for the comment and here's hoping to a rioter does at least take note and comment on this! I'm just really really excited that people like the idea.

Underworld Orianna. Could use her human body as a model.

It would have to be at least a Legendary skin though as a lot would change. Like no more bottom half spinning without the top half.

Exactly, it'd be a higher priced but its diversity from other skins would make it worth and bring in a lot, as well as a lot of joy from the community. I honestly think that it'd just fit her lore better to just have a pre-death AKA Human Orianna skin, and not so much underworld because that sets an entirely new theme.

This is an amazing idea. I'm all for knowing what certain Champions looked like before their deaths (Karthus, Sion, etc.)

"Just, please... Her lore almost demands it, and Kassadin has a "Pre-Void" skin, so I just figured, maybe..."

Kass' skin is of him being a fighter, which he was, before he entered the void. Also, not every champ has a before/after skin. (i.e. Malzahar, Xerath, Azir, Shaco, Hecarim, Kalista, and Thresh don't... there could be others)

"Though Orianna had incredible talent for dancing, she was deeply fascinated by the champions of the League of Legends. This fascination compelled her to begin training to become such a champion. It is unfortunate that her sheltered, wide-eyed naivete led her to take unnecessary and dangerous chances which ultimately led to her tragic demise. Orianna's death shattered Corin, driving him into deep depression and an obsession with techmaturgy. He could not stand the void his daughter's death left in his life, so he decided to build a replacement - one that would complete Orianna's dream of joining the League. What was created is the clockwork killing machine that Corin named after his daughter."

Playing with a ball and joystick in her teens seems kind of meh. Since the ball was most likely designed by Corin after she died, don't get any impression from her lore that she used a ball at all in her dangerous chances. It would be hard to tie the ball in together with her, for this type of skin, as she didn't have it before.

Thanks for you feedback, but I only pointed out the Pre-Void Kass because it was what gave me the idea. Other people, especially on reddit, have been going along with the fact it also breaks way for the idea of a whole "Pre-Death" theme with Sion, Karthus, etc. I only pointed out Ori because I, as well as a few others I've met in the past few days, have enjoyed her lore so much and she's my personal favorite.

Now, onto the ball and Corin. I realize Corin only invented Ori and that having a ball would be a weird tie pre-death, but there's no saying it couldn't happen. Her ball isn't the main factor in the skin, but it just displays Corin could do it as he did invent one AFTER her death. There's a lot still in progress and I'm keeping the comments of everyone's in mind, so thanks. I'll keep this in mind, move along and attempt to get closer to perfecting my ideas.

I would buy this skin. Probably end up at either ultimate or legendary. I doubt this skin would cost 975 rp. You are right about the whole ball thing. Her ball and ballet do not have anything to do with each other. That is why I never understood her lore. If her ball was significant in her life prior to dying, then there has to be a reason Corin built it for Orianna. It is still hard to think about a reason as to why she liked balls as a human tho...
