Some Universe's stories and Client's stories do not match at all : Fizz : Water-dwelling Creature vs Amphibious Yordle Zilean : Urtistan Sorcerer vs Icathian Mage [many more ... ]

　

Some champions are being related to Icathia Zilean Jax Malzahar Kassadin Adding Icathia as a new region is a possibility (I feel like Icathia have enough lore to be a small region) (I mean, it's a destroyed land that still exist)

　

Some champions are being related to the Darkin race Aatrox Varus Kayn ish Adding explanation on "who the Darkins are" is a possibility Like the introduction of the Vastayans with Eduard's story (A lot of people don't even know Darkins are the equivalent of aliens)

　

Some champions are being "demonic" and making pacts TahmKench Evelynn Adding explanation on "who these demons are" is a possibility I can understand that things unexplained are scarier But i wish at least i knew how to correclty call them "Demons" sounds too much ordinary/boring

　

Evelynn is still tied to the shadow isles in the region page ThreshMaokaiHecarim =/= Evelynn - Which sounds like a remain of her old lore

　

Some champions are incorrectly affiliated to "Runeterra" Bard : Extra-dimensionnal being AurelionSol : Un-related to Runetera, might eventually be related to "Targon" Zilean Jax : Icathia (click-able icons btw)

　

PS : thanks for skin-lore, really appreciate [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

Your concerns are valid, no point being salty though.

Well, who says that yordles arent actually a Water-dwelling race?!

And maybe Evelyn still having a conection with the Shadow Isles.

You bring up a point that I'm curious about, which I would love to see debated more on these boards.

Demons, Darkin and Icathians. Either groups are well established (Icathians not really) features within the universe, but their presence on the website is wanting. But I don't know if any of them are ready for a sub section like the Vastaya page had.

Issue could be each group lack a sufficient number of champs to justify dedicated pages for.

  • Because we only have two confirmed demons (Nocturne isn't canon yet).
  • We only have three Darkin and at this point in time lack sufficient lore about them. But I suspect Aatrox's GU is going to be one hell of a LU too, since there's been a lot left desired from this alien race. If that happens then there could or should be a Darkin subpage.
  • Then there's the known Icathian champions, who and depending on future LUs could become a certified faction among the Regions page. Once again we lack the sufficient history to fill up it's own sub page. Should also be weary about who gets placed under the Icathian banner. It would be nice to have a home for Jax and Zilean but there is the issue of Void overlap, especially when both groups have such an interconnected history and limited selection of champs.

Its obviously up to the narrative team (or possibly the website's moderators) how they plan to update Universe. But the Void champions / Icathian champions seems like a big conundrum and there's more factors to consider that I haven't mentioned yet, which is exactly why I think the Universe's future should be debated more.
