Is Kassadin supposed to be a Warlord or something?

Why does he have so many spikes on his armor?

Is he supposed to be like a reverse Vader where he starts off ruthless and cruel as a warlord, discovers some dark power that consumes him and then uses it for good? I don't really understand his lore or his character design.

WHY SO MANY SPIKES!?

A dude who was consumed by evil power and uses it to fight evil COULD BE SO FUCKING COOL story wise but its just wasted on Kassadin currently. Maybe he was a warlord that sought after the ultimate power, the Void, and it consumed him completely and his only heir, his daughter, so he is atoning for his sins by being a drifter and a wandering killer of the void but he is still ruthless and merciless due to his past and upbringing.

Thoughts?

Old and outdated model/design is the best answer here.

A dark power, the power of the void, did try to consume him just as it did Malzahar, but Kassadin successfully resisted. He now uses his void powers to lead a group who actively seeks out and fights void creatures, and prepares for the inevitable invasion.

Back in the olden days, adding spikes was the best way to make a model "pop" without spending millions of years on texturing or dropping fps with a ridiculously complex model. See Shaco as well for this.
