Could Rengar be possibly be a Yordle?
I know, I know it sounds really, really weird at first, but since the introduction of the yordles as just some other random generic fanatsy race I think they have been rewritten into something a bit more complex. This might have started when Illaoi adresses them as "spirits", or maybe even before, but my theory is that Yordles are somewhat spiritual beings bound to the places they inhabit or the cultures they come into contact with.
Just look at Poppy. She's like the symbol of Demacia somehow. Same thing with Kled, who's probably the best representation of noxian war-culture I have ever seen. Heimerdinger is a genius sceintist, and if there is one thing Piltover stands for its genius science. Gnar is pretty much the incarnation of prehistoric Runeterra. Lulu is bound to the Fae As for the other yordles... Teemo and Tristana still are in line for a lore update and we don't know for sure if Bandle City even still exists or if they are spread over the land. I can see these two traveling with mercenary groups tho. Ziggs would fit perfectly into Zaun with his crazy disregard for safety measures - however, I'm sure there is no limit like "one yordle per place", so he might as well be coinnected to Piltover. And Rumble... no clue, I can only assume that this yordle-rewrite is still in progress.
Btw, isn't it interesting that the only yordle not connected to a specific place is the "odd one out"?
Going by the name of Veigars abilities one might almost suggest that Veigar didn't bind with a location but with the cosmos itself, but let's safe that thought for another thread.
They have perfectly become the "local spirits" of these areas - not too much of a thing if you remember they also seem to be immortal.
Now, Rengar is a tricky case. It is said that he is some "one of a kind" being - but if there is no species of badass cat people, then what is he? Simple: a yordle that has become the local spirit of the jungle. The only culture that he grew up with was the one of hunting - both the hunting for survival, and the one for sport and fame - the first one would be Nidalees theme (who is also kinda a "spirit of the jungle"), he's called the pridestalker for a reason after all. It wouldn't be weird to assume that his body has changed in the jungle, resulting in the big towering form that he is today.
After all who says yordles have to be small? After all Gnar proves that they also can be really, really, big at times.
What's almost more interesting is that this means there is a yordle for every area. There could be a Shuriman Yordle (a caravan leader maybe?), there could be a Shadow Isles Yordle (very ded), there could be a Freljordian Yordle (either a civilian who tends to his goats or a miniature version of Olaf, whatever you like), there could be an Ionian Yordle, and maybe even a Bilgewater one (yordle pirates anyone?).
And even more intersting: what happens to a Yordle when the place they are connected to falls to ruins? Someone gotta ask Zilean if there was a yordle back in Urtistan...
, and he dropped it into a puddle. The puddle was cursed, and the donkey turned humanoid, and eventually sole Grave's cigar! He then traveled to the human world, where he plays video games, under the name of VIDEOGAMEDUNKEY. He tried to warn us that Singed owned Riot, but we thought he was joking. After realizing that nobody believed him, he left lol, and all of Runeterra behind him. Rengar then met Sejuana, whom nobody remembers... They joined forces to find his lost donkey friend, but all they found were trashy runes. So Rengar ate Sejuana, and thats how he is not a Yordle.
