Idea for Xin Zhao Lore

Garentheon··2 votes·1,313 views

Just some thoughts. Some tidbits I wanted to express. Maybe you guys can fill in the blanks if you want.

  • He's from Ionia
  • Something happened where he leaves Ionia. Could be on the run or had to get away from something
  • Becomes a wanderer and outcast
  • Somehow gets picked up for crimes he may or may have not done
  • Forced to fight in the arena (Yes I did realize, so far, this is similar to the plot of Gladiator lol)
  • Jarvan 2 witnesses his acts in the arena and frees him
  • Now he feels in debted and loyal to J2 and the Lightshield family

Wouldn't it make sense if he was just captured during the ionia vs Noxus war? I mean him getting accused of something he might have not done and being a wanderer sounds a lot like yasuo.

Actually that wouldn't match up with the timeline. The war happened after J2 was alive

He definitely seems to give off the Ionian vibe for me also. And there's nothing wrong with referencing the amazing Gladiator! I think that Viscero Xin Zhao is a salute to one of the guys that Russell Crowe kills in the first arena scene.
