If Vastayans are in Ionia, it may explain Warwick's Origins.

So we all know that Singed was turning Warwick into a Chimera, as per Riot's new lore. So where did he get the idea? This is a guy who deals in chemicals... He was present in the Noxian Invasion of Ionia (if it hasn't been retconned) and so he may have come in contact with the Vastayans. If this is the case, he may have wanted to replicate them in the traditional mad, Zaunite, fashion. Warwick was Singed's experiment to test the bounds of the Vastayan form.

Thoughts?

EDIT: Special thanks to Morgarl in the comments for pointing out that Singed wants immortality and Vastayans live long enough to be believed to be immortal, and Singed might have used Warwick to test that theory.

With the fact that it's mentioned vatayans may be immortal in some instances, and Singed's quest for immortality. It would seem quite likely.

But he was human who was forced to change through an experiment. Vastayans are born that way, no?

Soraka is just pretending to be a Vastayan in Ionia....secretly she is a star baby.

That's actually a really cool thought... I wanna see Warwick get unleashed on Ionia now...

He does specifically mention learning some surgical technique in the Ionian campaign (Engineering the Nightmare), so that sounds pretty canon.

What if Warwick is actually partially vastayan? If for example Warwicks great great grandfather was a vastaryan and the rest was human,then it is possible that he simply lacked the abilities of the vastayan(or never realized them).

And Singed did speak of a beast within Warwick,so that would be rather fitting.

I thought warwicks lore was that he was a "collector" of humans for mad doctors to experiment, and he needed to get stronger/overall better to keep up with his quota, so he drank singed experimental incomplete elixir of strength and he turned into werewolf man?

What if he captured Vastaya to get some kind of dna from?

I still have no clue what the fuck Soraka is and her lore is...... meh.

It also might mean a lore rewrite for Rengar Ahri MonkeyKing to name a few since new champ somehow looks related to ahri

Vastaya*

The plural of Vastaya is Vastaya

Honestly, considering he drinks Insanity potion, it doesn't even matter. He may have been under while creating Warwick's current form.

I like it, and would love to potentially see Warwick interacting with Vastayans.
