Yorick and Evelynn.

Boomerangbro·Oct 27, 2015·3 votes·862 views

They didn't have their lores updated, which means that they could have ulterior motives towards the Shadow Isles Coven.

Evelynn may even oppose the order and is assassinating the people that support the Coven in order to give her power to reign over the Shadow Isles herself. She may even work for an unknown character who gives her orders that she carries out. She may even agree with the order, but wants to be independent and has her own agenda to work.

Yorick may want to get something out from all the chaos. He may need bodies for some necromancer ritual. He may just go on with his business like he did before. He may want to play apart in the story because the order had something to do with his family.

Idk. just me thinking.

Evelynn could actually be against the Shadow Isles. Something along the likes of her being prophesied to help the Isles and her response is, "Nahh..."

IDK. In my headcannon I just see her as the wildcard of the Shadow Isles. Only connected due to birth and trying to be her own person rather than a part of the undead place.

And killing people. She's still a fan of that.

She could be like the Leblanc of the Shadow Isles. Using her shadow magic to bend the order to her will. She may not even care for the order unless it benefits her. She is probably her own person and is willing to assassinate anyone that gets in her way. Her motives at the time are unclear.

It most likely just has to do with the fact that both characters will get big updates in the future and writing their lore now would limit the possibilities for a vu.

Still, their lore may still have to do with the Shadow Isles. It could be explained at a later time what Evelynn's motives were during the Blessed Isles collapse and what her agenda was.

Same with Yorick.

Well what kind of lore would they provide in that case? Like I said,everything that they'd make about these champs would limit the eventual champion update.

If you see Eve and Yorick now going out to kill some guys from bilgewater,then that would imply that they work directly for the shadow isles,but what if riot decides that they shouldn't be like that?That their tasks are different ones?in that case these lore pieces would be retconned yet again.

Riot themselves doesn't know about what their motives,or even goals are at this point,because all those are subject to change.

Besides giving us lore pieces for them that aren't as detailed as those of kalista,mordekaiser and so on would really seem out of place.

the reason they didnt have there lore updated is simply because they are waiting on the VU for those champions. both of which are a long ways off.

as for lore, eve is one of the only shadow isles champ that looks somewhat human aside from kalista. she also doesnt have that trademark green glow that just about all shadow isle champs have, so its not 100% known if she from the shadow isles or some kind of demon/succubus or a undead being that is not bound to the isles like the updated morde is.

i am going to go out on a limb and say she isnt from the isles at all but is attracted to it in the same way morde is attracted to it. she is able to kill and hunt freely there.

going off her kit alone, she seems to love making people suffer, so the isles would be a good home for her even if she isnt originally from there.

I actually think they were mentioned in the new content, subtly. I'd say it's a fair chance the "unknown thief" that stole Mordekaiser's skull was Evelynn, and the "lantern-bearing wretch" in Hecarim's lore was likely Yorick.

That'd mean she is very old. Which might throw out the whole, "Half human" thing.

Has anyone ever considered Evelynn as a Darkin? I don't really like the Darkin concept, but just asking.

the "lantern bearing wretch" was actually thresh.

"unknown thief" i doubt was eve.
