Kalista appearance to specific places/cultures

I’ve been reading up on kalista lore and want to speculate on her next skins. On her blood moon page it says that thats how people in Ionia see her because they relate her to their culture. So this gives me reason to believe that championships kalista is how Demacians would see her. So I was hoping that riot would release skins of how she looks noxious, frelordians, and other cultural places.[slayer-jinx-catface] [sg-kiko] [sg-soraka] P.s= I’m having way too much fun with these stickers.

I just want to clarify that lore-wise Kalista does not actually have multiple appearances, unlike Evelynn or Tahm Kench. Blood Moon Kalista is what Ionians who have never seen her _think _ she might look like. If (or when) Kalista visits Ionia, she would still look like her base appearance. If you already knew that, then I aplogise for being pedantic.

The people of Bilgewater are familiar enough with the Harrowings to know what a Shadow Islander looks like (blue glow, black mist, etc). So Kalista's cultural depiction in Bilgewater is probably close to her real appearance.

Vengeance is not a concept looked on highly in Demacian culture, and being undead is also rather dislikeable, so I don't think Demacia would depict Kalista as favourably as her Championship skin. Noxus might see her that way though.

What interests me is how Kalista is depicted in Shuriman culture. Imagine a Kalista skin as a fiery djinn, with the particles and design of Nightbringer Yasuo. That would be cool. [poppy-wink]
