Wouldn't it be cool if Eve, Tahm, Shaco and Nocturne became Demons?

Just like in Full Metal Alchemist, they could represent "sins"-- Mind you not necessarily the Deadly Sins, so as to open champ concepts to more ideas. Their "back story" could be that they torment people based on their specific "sin", and have spread around Runeterra, having different territories where they prey on people.

  • Tahm: Gluttony (obvious)

  • Eve: Lust (obvious)

  • Shaco: Sadism

  • Nocturne: Wrath (maybe there are cooler themes to explore here)

I've thought of that too, idk if new Eve still has Shadow Isle connections but I think just making her a demon would be cool. She still kills people, and people who "hire" her (even though she isn't paid with money) are basically making a deal with the devil and she'll come back for them eventually. I think Shaco is so weird that who knows what he'd even be, but I wouldn't be upset with Noc becoming a demon either. His guest appearance in Lux and Garen's new lore is awesome. Even if he's not a demon, he's obviously some entity either from outside the world or from some dreamland, and I think that could be more compelling than a demon thing. Who knows though, he's not slated for a VGU and we probably won't get new cannon lore on him until 2047 lol.

TahmKench is a demon, it's confirmed. Shaco Nocturne Fiddlesticks can possibly be reworked as demons And Brand is a demon as well, most likely, since he's the fire spirit that fought Renekton and Nasus

This is a cool idea and it has potential, but I'm very concerned about champions losing character potential due to being forced into boxes like those created by trying to fill out a roster of 'sins.'

It is the same problem we run into when trying to fill out any roster with every type of a zodiac, calendar, or any other trope.

I would much rather Riot release skins for each of these themes for these characters rather than try to pidgeon-hole the champions into these specific archetypes entirely.

They already have horseman themes with Darkin. I dunno if we LoL daemons have to be judeo-christian. There are other types, but it is popular.
