It looks like ascension doesn't really turn the person into a being of greatness, but instead just empowers them and push them further at their personality? like how nasus gain more wit and renekton become more brutal after the ascension?
LordHippoman7 votesPower corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Basically, I think it's just much easier to have the darker sides of your personality shine through if you have the capability to do so. So like for Renekton, "Sure, we could negotiate a surrender...but now I'm a giant crocodile man and it would be WAY faster to just turn you into a splotch in the sand."
Illiad1 votesIts still good, they worship the ascended regardless of their attributes. It is just an after affect. the ascension pushed Azir and Nasus to greater heights and will. While Xerath and Renekton became warped and corrupted. Though Renekton only became so infamous after Xerath poisened his mind.
The Deckowner2 votesBut in Nasus's lore, before Renekton got currupted by Xerath, he was already brutal and he murdered an entire city's population, also lighted it which caused loss of knowledges from rhe libaray.
Illiad1 votesHe was a rude dude before the ascension that is true. But because the Nile sweeps away the worshipers, did they not continue worshiping it? A deity, even a cruel one, has influence
JayHog19921 votesYou also gain the ability to not age too soon, meaning you can live about 10 lifetimes.
Pretty much just turns you into a semi-mortal being and in some cases, into an animal fitting of your personality.
GreenLore1 votesI'd say 10 lifetimes isn't really enough,considering that Azirs lore says he resurrected thousands of years later.
100 or even 1000 lifetimes sounds more likely.
JayHog19922 votesTo be fair, he was never ascended until the resurrection. It states that "Azir's noble act of selfleshness towards Sivir allowed him to be ascended even after many years."
GreenLore2 votesUhm I'm referring to Renekton and Nasus who were known as legendary shuriman heroes before the fall of the empire and who are still alive,even though thousands of years have passed.
JayHog19921 votesWell, that's the power of ascension aparently. One just roamed the desert for ages while the other was locked up.
Don't see much of the confusion.
GreenLore1 votesThe thing is that 10 life times would roughly mean that their lifetimes get expanded to ~600-800 years(depending on what the standard of "a lifetime" is) But that can't be true since Nasus and Renekton are already several thousand years old.
JayHog19921 votesI just gave a random number, ok? Could be 10, could be 1000, could be 10000000000000000000000000.
What I meant is, they get to live for a shit ton of years.
GreenLore1 votesWell no it couldn't be 10,that was the entire point of what I said xD
JayHog19921 votesI JUST GAVE A RANDOM NUMBER!
STOP BEING SO SPECIFIC!!! XD
RAH! (Turns into Gnar and flips a table.)
