Possible direction for Volibear rework that satisfies both parties. (maybe)

I enjoy both the concept of horror pagan eldritch god bear and armored warrior kinda goofy but cool bear too. But seeing as people arent all that happy with how reworked volibear is shaping out to be. I think that riot could satisfy both parties if they made volibear a warrior god that reflects the horrors of war and of the harsh cold environment that the ursine live in.

I was thinking that with this idea they could preserve the armor bear theme while also adding horror themes. Voli could have gnarly scar all over his body that pulse with crackling lighting ( which would use both the thousand pireced bear and gruesome visage aspects to a certain degree). Also Voli's armor could have dents and massive gashes on it to show that he is indeed a grizzled warrior. Perhaps if they keep his regeneration in his kit in anyway it could be as he lowers in health he starts losing coherence and his form devolves from the "honorable warrior" that he wants to be seen as to the monster that he is actually thought of and then when he regens he returns back to it.

Another way they might incorporate horror bear without sacrificing armor bear is that when voli roars he emanates a projection that closely resembles the voli from udyr's story. This would also rienforce the whole "it depends on how people percieve it thing".

Voli could also reflect this in his voicelines. Voli could make statements about how beings like ashe and anivia are idealistic fools and that violence and struggle are intrinsic aspects of being from the Freiljord and saying to be Freiljordian is to struggle. Maybe have some lighter lines about him lamenting people not seeing him as cool as he thinks he is and perhaps an apology to ornn ( if you dont want him being as much as a dick). Other lines could touch on the horror of war and how it turns his followers into mounters out of necessity.

Of course these are just my ideas, feel free to criticize or add to them.
