I'm expecting and looking forward to reading your post and speculations about the Vastayans, Darkin etc.

WarWorkApr 3, 201711 votes

Lol they only way to silence him was to hire him

SharjoApr 3, 201715 votes

WHY DID YOU LET ME IN?!

AmazoXApr 3, 20174 votes

Sharjo! CONGRATULATIONS, THAT'S SUPER COOL.

WISE CHOICE LORE SQUAD

Although Sharjo you are still going to discuss with the community about things that are newly released for us wimps!?

Once again, Congratulations! ♡-♡

SharjoApr 3, 20175 votes

I'll try! But I've gotta pay for some dancing lessons first.

Wait, what? What did I miss?

midnight oil24Apr 4, 20171 votes

Sharjo, while not an official rioter (I think) is sort of working with Riot in some way. I'm hazy on the details though.

I know that everyone is congratulating you and all that, It's great but... this reminds me to a chapter of an anime called "Little witch Academia" were a character is chosen to continue writing her favorite saga of books , but she refuses the offer because, if she does that, she will know the story beforehand and will be unable to speculate about the story and things like that.

SharjoApr 6, 20171 votes

Well I'm on a very different path to her then.

Troll for TrumpApr 4, 20171 votes

Hire him

SharjoApr 3, 201717 votes

Can't do it, sorry, I work for Riot now and actually KNOW things for real. Like for REALSIES.

So yeah. Lots I can't say. Will have to tread carefully about what I can say.

Also hi!

Hambone2013Apr 3, 20179 votes

Seriously? That's cool when do you turn Red?

SharjoApr 3, 201715 votes

Probably never since I'm a contractor, not a proper rioter.

Still dunno how I managed to land this kind of job. They're clearly bonkers to have brought me in.

Hambone2013Apr 3, 20176 votes

Congratulations anyway. It's still quite cool

SharjoApr 3, 20179 votes

Indeed. I must be the luckiest twat in the world to land this job. Holy shit.

IgotlazyApr 6, 20171 votes

Dude get them to give your name a special color. Like Blue or Orange or something.

Chromatic EagleApr 3, 20171 votes

Wait, you actually work for them? What do you do?

SharjoApr 3, 201713 votes

They made a tool to chronicle lore stuff called the Sharjonic Archive. They asked me to work on it with them!

Chromatic EagleApr 3, 20176 votes

I....wow.

5000000000000000Apr 4, 20172 votes

Does this mean after you're done with the Archive (or is that a continuous thing?), you'll be able to go back to speculating and such?

SharjoApr 4, 20172 votes

It's a continuous thing. Got a bunch of stuff to do yet!

Sahn UzalApr 3, 20173 votes

Oh shit, Have I been living under a rock?

Since when?

What the fuck?

Congrats dude!

SharjoApr 3, 20177 votes

Few weeks now, just haven't had much chance to make it public knowledge.

I haven't come off of the high that I got when I was asked to work for them. Like holy shit someone bring me down already it's too fucking scary at this altitude!

So, in essense, you are now Lee Sin?

You have transcended your humanity into a nearly god-like state!

Congrazzles!

WarWorkApr 3, 20172 votes

:'( I'm glad you work for riot but so sad to see your speculations and story disappear. Lol was literally clicking refresh waiting for your post.

But more than anything else I'm happy for you man. Still looking forward to hearing from you when you can post about it.

Also hey long time fan and silent reader of your posts!

SharjoApr 3, 20178 votes

I'll still try and discuss where I can, but I'll be skirting around the concept of "talking as if I didn't know better", which can be tricky. So just bear with me. Still ask about stuff, just be aware that I've got things I just can't talk about!

I can talk about what I do for Riot, if only mentioning that what I do is a thing that exists, so if you wanna know that, I can say!

WarWorkApr 3, 20173 votes

Oh nice i'd like to know what you do for riot, that for sure.

And in does this mean that urf is not only canon but Vastaya? Does Rengar know what he is?

What's they correct plural for Vastaya?

And does this confirm Varus' bow as Darkin?

SharjoApr 3, 20176 votes

I'll go through this in reverse:

I can't talk about anything darkin related. Maybe in the future.
Vastayan.
Rengar is very aware of what he is.
I'm almost positive Urf isn't in the prime canon. Like 99% positive. That's just my assumptions though; dunno what's up with him really.
Riot has a tool that they created to categorise and chronicle lore that ranges from "Players have known this for years" to "Players won't know about this for years", and they asked me to work on it with them! They named the thing the Sharjonic Archives. I lost my shit when they told me that.

WarWorkApr 3, 20172 votes

Thanks so much for answering.

I'll probably return here tomorrow after riot releases more info to ask more as I understand there are certain question you can't answer yet that i really wanna ask (like which champions are officially Vastayan now {lloking at Ali and Voli}).

WarWorkApr 3, 20172 votes

OH I have one you can answer or at least discuss.

1.) Seeing as Vastayan have innate magical capabilities, have extreme longevity, super human strength, enhanced senses, sentient levels of intellegence (also taking into account members of their species like Ahri and Rengar who have/would be hostile to humans), What's stopping them from being the dominant sentient species on Runeterra, if not just Ionia? I doubt it would be their nature of being pacifists once again citing Ahri and Rengar. They are seemingly just as intellegent as humans, and I'm not asking why they don't concure the world, just think that they would be the dominant or largest species.

2.) And personally, what do you think of humans being the seemingly weakest intelligent race? As lore develops and as we get more races, I don't get the impression of, "hey here's a new race with differences and pros and cons or strengths and weaknesses" as much as I get "oh here's another race that's superior to humans in every sense of the word".

Nice, you got to be in Riot? You deserve it, you're always on top of these lore things.

SharjoApr 3, 20174 votes

Not in Riot technically, more like adjacent to them. And on the opposite side of the Atlantic.

RalanrApr 3, 20175 votes

Wait what?! When?! How?!

What do you do?!

SharjoApr 3, 20179 votes

They have a thing they use to chronicle lore and stuff that's called the Sharjonic Archives. They asked me to work on it!

They named the fucking thing after me Ralanr. HOW DOES A MAN DEAL WITH THAT.

RalanrApr 3, 20174 votes

By boarding your windows from snipers because I AM ENVIOUS TO THE POINT OF MURDEROUS RAGE!!!!

SERIOUSLY, THAT IS AWESOME MAN! I wish you luck in this path!

SharjoApr 3, 20173 votes

Thanks! Hopefully I don't screw this up!

RalanrApr 3, 20174 votes

You won't.

SharjoApr 3, 20174 votes

You say that, and yet I'm still wondering why the sod I'm even in this position!

RalanrApr 3, 20175 votes

Because you're incredibly passionate and good at this stuff.

SharjoApr 3, 20176 votes

That's what they keep saying but I'm still convinced this is all a fever dream. NOBODY WAKE ME UP.

TyrekGoldenspearApr 4, 20174 votes

We won't. :)

Congratulations, you deserve it man.

Malicious MetalApr 4, 20173 votes

I'll wish you Infinite Dreams then.

EROTIC RAID BOSSApr 3, 20171 votes

Wait how's that different from the universe page? Is it for riot internally?

Baron of BreadApr 4, 20171 votes

This would explain why there was no Sharjo post when I checked on the boards to see if someone had posted about the vastaya thing being up on universe. Congratulations though!

SharjoApr 4, 20171 votes

Actually no; I had massive overtime at my main job and missed it. Would've gotten it if not for that.
