Does the "no skeletons" rule apply to written lore as well?

I know Tencent won't let Riot depict skeletons in-game, but what about in writing? Is that off-limits too?

China does. Depictions of naked skeletons are a big no no.

I'm pretty sure they are allowed,Mordekaisers skeleton plays a large role in his lore and in the Bilgewater event we had GP cutting pictures into the bones of someone else(who was still alive,while GP did that)

The problem with doing that only in the lore, is that almost no one will remember that detail since the game, video and images related to LoL will never show a human skeleton...

... wait... What do you mean that they DID that?

Well... point proven...

so, let' s break things up.

If we talk about writing, i see absolutely no problem because it' s not graphical, and even in the case the regulamentation extends to writing ( which i find implausible ) they can just change it to something different. Changing a text or piece of lore is totally different from changing a picture, so to speak, and has different ramifications too; they could change Morde' s skull to a gem for example, and be done with it with few effort and consequences. I mean, you have to translate in chinese aniway.
