Harbinger Of the Void

We have all these different characters involved with the void, but who was the original person that brought the void to be? Who was the forsaken one that opened the portal that has affected Runeterra? Wouldn't you think there would be a character long before the prophet, the creatures, or even the void walker? Who's behind all this chaos? Would be pretty wild if Kassidin's daughter had discovered it, malzahar corrupted her into going into it kassidin went after her, but got spat back out malzahar then disappears only to get lured to the original void that was opened (by kassidin's daughter) in which she gives him power to spread the void all over runterra as she begins to release these unspeakable creatures (i.e. cho, rek, etc.), but before she could bestow these powers upon malzahar he had to collect a certian crystal in which it would help the prophet control his powers but these crystals were guarded by these unspeakable creatures which were made from these powerful creatures to protect these powerful gems but the civilization has been asleep for ages and finding it will be hard, but he eventually does. But it's just an idea a little background that could bring a new story and possibly help tie in a champ like skarner. now I know the timing might be off, but that can always be changed as it has been for other champs that received updates on there lore. everyone wants this character and wants a better skarner lore so heres my idea.

Uhm how should Kassadins daughter be the original void portal-opener,if the first void portals were opened several thousand years ago?Long before Kassadin or his daughter were even born...

I don't see any reason that the powers from the portal not making someone immortal along with the fact that some of the champs exist in some ungodly long lives. along with the fact that yes to the discovers of the portal, it can seem as though it was created eons ago but with a portal how do you truly tell a timeline? It would be like trying to tell the age of air. Plus with only about half the character are we truly told what time period they exist. So yes there is the possibility that it was long before their existence but could easily have been a few years before anyone had found it. Then there is the possibility that yes it may not have been the very first but hit was the first that people were seeing and living to tell the tale along with it would have had to been more stable in order for people to not to be destroyed by it and then there is also the fact that portals open and close all the time. Open your mind a bit get creative. It;s simply an idea

The thing is that icathia was described as a forgotten ruin in kassadins lore,meaning that icathia was already long gone before kassadin was corrupted by the void,so he was still mortal at that time. Which in turn mean that there had to be hundreds of years between Kassadin finding Icathia and the first void portal opening.

at what time does it describe that the portal was found? plus even if the portal was during the icathia time period for all we know the portal could have been closed and reopened. when kassidin stumbles upon it, it never states who opened it along with how it was still open. that's the loop hole that is still missing. whoever opened such a portal had to have great power to open up an entire other dimension along with create a power strong enough to keep it open even after death unless the original person who opened is still alive. think about how malzahars voidlings work he opens the portal then it closes. so if its been there all these years what keeps it open

We know that Icathia used the void to fight shurima,so the icathian empire definetly had access to void portals.

In Rek'sais release story you can even see a picture that seems to depict her fighting a human renekton(not to mention that Sol fought void horrors on targon around the time where Shurima built the sun disc)

So yeah they already had void portals back then.

And overall I'm not saying that the original void-portal-opener can't be alive anymore,just that there is no way its kassadins daughter.

I know that she wasn't the creator of the original. Plus like i said its just a concept so there would be a little bit more of the lore into malz, kas, and skarner. My only other question is targon considered close to the shurima desert?

Well Taliyah was on her way to Targon when she met the noxians,so Targon is likely close to the shurima desert.

I have this theory that the Void isn't really a place, but a being. Like how in Greek mythology, Tartarus is both a place in the underworld and some kind'a primordial being and stuff.

Anyway, my theory says that the Void is trans-dimensional being, like Bard, and at one point it started… Spawning creatures out of itself. Or maybe creatures came to it, like meeps. Okay, so this ultra-powerful spirit began opening portals to other dimensions, then throwing void creatures through them. Why? Well, why does Bard protect the universe so completely? It may just be his nature to be a caretaker, and it may just be the Void's nature to conquer and destroy.

Btw, I don't believe that the Void controls them psychically, or even has a hive mind, I believe that the Void can simply direct its creatures, which then follow their instincts, which most of the time is to destroy.

That would be a pretty dope idea as well

In the Bloodlines story we get a few tidbits on Icathia. It sounds like they summoned Void beasties to try to fight off Azir's empire, but it went about as well as expected. Dunno if that was the first Void incursion on Runeterra, though.
