Out of curiosity, do supernatural characters in the LoLverse need to eat/sleep?

Specifically I'm talking about characters like; (I know Cho Gath devours, but is that for sustenance ? that's my question)

Also MOST OF ALL; Morgana , who in the old lore was a literal fallen angel, specifically did eat... but retained most of her angel powers .... but it is my understanding that angels in general, in this canon, have no such limitations. So ..... does Morgana NEED to eat?

Pantheon is another example of a character similar to Morgana in this aspect.

Ahri, Aurelion, and Cho'Gath probably eat since they're not undead, made of energy, or deities like the rest of them

Well Aurelion is a cosmic being that is as old as the universe itself,so I kinda doubt that he needs to eat.

Supernatural beings generally still need sustanenance in most forms of canon.

Galactus from Marvel is a pretty good example of this.

Well,but what would Aurelion "eat"? I mean when he was born,there likely wasn't much in the universe for him to consume. But then again,we don't know what even existed directly after the birth of the universe.

Maybe he eats radiation, the universe is full of that

Reading his lore I understood that he was just a rare kind of dragon species that can create cosmic things, not some all powerful god like being. I might be wrong though

GreenLoreJan 11, 20171 votes

His lore flat out states that he is literally as ancient as the universe itself.

Born in the first breath of creation, he roamed the vast nothingness,

And Aurelion Sol is the one who made all the stars in the universe,meaning that any regular life wasn't possible when he was born.

Furthermore riot clarified that even though Sol has "siblings",they are likely gonna be completely different from him and probably won't be dragons,meaning that Sol is indeed one of a kind.

And he isn't really a god,it is likely that he can be killed,its just that so far nothing managed to kill him.

Morg has her own bakery at noxus. So well...she can eay but dunno if she needs to. Maybe its just a hobby thing.

Well I doubt this is going to remain canon though. Morgana will likely be retconned to be more supernatural.

Renekton and Xerath lived in Tomb of the Emperors for millenia without food. Not even organic Ascended (which are all of them except Xerath) need food, seems like.

Xerath surely doesn't sleep, eat, breathe etc.

Yordles inside Bandle City dont need to eat.

Ahri, Cho, and Soraka probably need to eat. If Ahri wants to become human, she will have to get used to eating human food, not feasting on souls like Thresh does. Cho probably needs to eat a lot to sustain himself (using Kog'Maw as an example). As for Soraka, I wouldn't be surprised if she was a vegetarian. Sion (and likely Mordekaiser) can't eat normal food and don't need to sleep, but they sustain themselves with souls that they take. Nocturne probably gets energy from fear, so that could count as a food source. As for Xerath, he doesn't need to eat because he's Ascended.

Probably not. There may be some exceptions, but it's likely they just get their energy elsewhere.

I think most Aspects still need to eat, because they are more or less just possessed. Sure it comes with some power, but in the end, the power the host bodies get aren't really that groundbreaking. For Aurelion Sol, I doubt he has to eat. Simply because of the fact that probably nothing would be enough to sustain a dragon that creates stars.
