The Archetype We're Missing.

I've been wondering about this lately, you know what league has a distinct lack of? Any sort of immediate family. Like wife and kids that sort of deal. I don't remember playing any champ and having them have a side comment about their loved ones back at home. For the next champion we need a family(wo)man. I imagine something like a targonian farmer who just used to tend his crops keep his fields and above all else be with his wife and kids. Then a void creature attacked his home and he had to defend his family against the horror while they slept. I can't imagine what his moveset would be, but ya know someone common with a family someone we can relate to. I'm just getting a bit tired of these masterful giant creatures and men of war who tear people apart with their bare hands and/or have the magic of a God. All while not having any interpersonal relationship anywhere. So please think instead of thinking of a way to make the next champion bigger and better, make them more personal and more common. And above all have a nice family that they reference.

Lucian talks about his wife

We have the Demacian siblings (Garen and Lux)

We have the Noxian siblings (Darius and Draven)

Varus talks about losing his family a bit I think

And while I can see where you're coming from with more want for blood relations, the relationships like Vi and Caitlyn, Graves and TF, Ekko and his crew of orphans, etc. are pretty cool too!

Though you are right with a lot of the bigger names not having like established families of their own, which would be interesting to see, but they also wouldn't be so much "legends" as they would be "really cool people."
