I hope this message gets to you D:
Would you consider changing the fact that Ekko is a teenager, and that the machine has actually affected his physical growing? If not, can I change your mind with an IDEA that also relate him with other champ (that I don't think you have worked on so much, and it's pretty old... no, not Zilean) and that tells more about Ekko's childhood, the first first beginning of his childhood?
Love your champ! :D Starting a fanlore of him ;)
La Barbotte1 voteshe commin straight outta zaun, crazy motherfucker named ekko
Wardenboo1 votesis he? literature is also a kind of magic. Maybe he is, maybe not, with such a short Lore, everything is possible.
La Barbotte1 voteshe literraly says ''welcome to zaun'' and ''this is how we do in zaun'' in his in game quotes XD
Wardenboo1 votesYes, I know, I also think I´m forcing it. I though maybe he spent most of his life in Zaun, that is his home, but since the Lore in LoL pages doesn´t say anything about where he was born (like with a lot of champs) maybe that fact can be changed. And if that place was completely destroyed, and he had nothing more to defend, he would let it go and love the one where he grew up, and the people there that became his new family. :b Meh! He is a proud little boy, and I´m a fan.
GreenLore1 votesCan you explain your reason here?
I mean whats wrong with him being a teenager? Is it because a teenager invented such a device like a time machine?(it was said in a red post though that he used a special crystal for it and that he himself has some difficulties understanding how exactly it works).
Wardenboo1 votesThere is nothing wrong with him being a teenager, but the official Lore (I mean, I take as official the one on all Leagueoflegends.com pages) doesn't say too much about him. I've been thinking, what if all about "being a boy" were just a cover so he can calmly search for Ajuna's killer?. I am creating a story, and sometimes it sounds to me a little crazy, because I'm relating him with a champ that also has a very little Lore, but for that I think he should be older. And it would also be more logical to me that he was older, because that way it would exist a longer period of time in which Ekko had contact with Vi and Jinx. He could also have looked different before, so when he makes his appearance, he is how we know him now.
My question is based on what I would like him to be so my story has a little bit of sense, and allows me also to make him interact more with Jinx and Vi's Lore, and also to give more meaning to his tattoo, and also the reason why he created the machine, and also.... give him more time, so every secret interaction that he has on the game can have also a meaning (with Jayce, for example, I still don't know what is that about).
Maybe it sounds a little selfish jaja, but since there was not a lot of information when I looked the LoL page, my imagination filled up everything making a story, I don't know if twisted or not. And yesterday I found out Faux q&a, which allowed me to fill a little more, but he also says things about Ekko that are the opposite of what I believed. Literature is one of the arts I love the most, and I have read stories sometimes that have such an interesting twist... even MF looking for a revenge on GP, that was awesome to me. I want to know more about Ekko, but since there was not a lot of information when I read his lore, I created it :b
GreenLore1 votesWell Ekko did saw the killer and he had the chance to get him,but he decided that it would be more important to stay at Ajunas side,so I doubt that he is now on a quest for revenge.
And overall it looks more like the opposite of what you'd want is actually the case,as a quote from riotJaredan implies that ekko actually ages a bit faster,because he seems to keep aging even when he rewinds time
"Ekko ages in or out of time-travel. In fact, you might see him beat the tar out of someone and make it look like he saw everything coming, and made every move perfectly the first time. However, in that 30 seconds, Ekko actually experienced that same span of linear reality over 200 times until he got it right. In other words, in that 30 seconds, Ekko aged 1 hour and 40 minutes. Some things he can never get back...
Meaning that he is physically older than what he normally should be at this point.
Wardenboo1 votesI love you, that is actually something great to know... I guess my idea will stay as a fanfic Lore because it has a lot of different things. And yes, you´re right, I also don´t think he would choose the revenge path, but if he decided to make his appearance, there must be a reason. Revenge can only be the cover, the real reason could be something more..... altruistic, and that is also what I want. And the quote "It's not how much time you have, it's how you use it" makes me strongly believe that he doesn´t act without reasons, and he doesn´t like to waste his time... and that he has experienced more things that we actually know. That is also why I always thought he was older. Most of the people that have been through difficult experiences usually have more wisdom, and although I love that he is young and he is like he is, I also think the other way would actually be interesting too, mostly because of other champs Lore.
It´s not that I dislike him like he is, or that I don´t think it´s possible to be young and wise (cuz I know young and wise people), it´s all about making a story more closely related to other champs.
I´ll appreciate your feedback :3
