All about Zyra, and how to maybe give her better lore connections

Zyra needs a bit better explanation as to WHAT she is and WHY she does it I think a great way to improve her lore would be to make her the plant that Ahri had take her memories, and that is what compelled Zyra to look human. Also if she did such a thing to Ahri an explanation for how her killer plants works could be that, instead of being actually plants that shoot (thorns?) and sentient volatile foliage, the plants are actually hallucinations she causes that makes people in the area feel as though they are being attack by the sudden hallucinogenic plant life. Maokai would probably still not really like her because how shes changed from a plant to a humanoid shape and so on and so forth...

Please feel free to comment on your opinion on the matter [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

I always liked the idea of Zyra being more primal-focused. Essentially, emphasize on the fact that she is a CREATURE seeking only to survive. I don't exactly know where Riot wants to go with Zyra right now, but I've always interpreted her old lore as her being the last of her species and seeking only to survive as a vicious collection of carnivorous plants.

PLEASE OH PLEASE stray away from a Poison Ivy copy.

I don't like the fact that she get a connection with Ahri, because it will mean that she will come from Ionia and I can only see Zyra as a member of the Kumungu Jungle faction

I'd love to see her having connections with demons, and being the demon of wrath and primal urges herself, her new bio is stating that she was born during an ancient sorcerous catastrophe, and it made me think she was given birth the same way as Evelynn

Zyra is a vengeful entity, a powerful being who not only use Nature, but IS Nature herself.
