Which champ is a parent?

The only one I can think of is Kassadin but his daughter is currently loss in the void.

Champion who are known to be parents or believe to be or possibly consider as parents Azir Elise RekSai Maokai Zyra Viktor Alistar Varus MasterYi Skarner Lissandra

Also should we have a champ who have a family and their story can be center around them protecting their family?

Umm... no... She trapped the shadow bear, she didn't created it.

Ah, you are right for some reason I though she created been too long since I last read her lore.

Alistar's whole family got obliterated by a bunch of Noxians. He went berserk, got captured and got used as a circus animal for a while in gladiatorial combat. He survived the same gladiatorial theatre as Xin Zhao did.

Why does riot want to make Noxus seem so evil for close to no reason :/. I mean the way they're sometimes depicted shows them as just plain stupid idiots who want to kill everyone. Well, I do like the amount of conflict in Ali's lore doe.

Because it's easy to make an evil enemy. Just have to include stuff about pain and suffering in voice overs and you're pretty much done.

They've admitted to wanting to retcon and redo Noxus because they made the Noxians too aggressive and violent, it would be almost impossible to survive there.

GG Rito.

Just make them a dark grey instead of straight up black.

I agree, I think a good example of what they tried and failed to do with Noxus is Zaun. Zaun is hard to live in and is full of criminals and illegal scientists/experiments and such, but its still livable and people can survive it.

Neamean1 votes

I don't think Noxus is the failed version of Zaun maybe a fail version of Bilgewater but not Zaun. To me each have different qualities.

Bilgewater is lawless where all the criminal are at

Zaun has no criminal because their research is not against the law where they are at, I would say Zaun has no morals instead but also no laws guess.

And last but not least is Noxus which is center around strength which is why they do "bad" to show their strength but each champ show strength differently in Noxus.

Darius and Sion is more shier force Swain/Leblanc is never losing having a plan Riven is skill and honor beating someone on equal term (kind of) Talon is survival kind of theme Draven is showing off his might in the Colosseum, his execution

They all show their strength or what they consider to be strength differently.

I see your point. I just feel like Noxus needs some work in terms of how their system/lore is.

Neamean1 votes

Agreed, it needs some work and I hope they fix Demacia too cause right it seem so bland.

GreenLore1 votes

In the early days Noxus was pretty much the "bad-guy"-faction. Lots of champion lores were basically "it was all good,but everything changed when the fire nation noxians attacked"

I mean this even went further than just champion lores,as pretty much every bigger lore development had the noxians as the bad guys in some sort of way.

Helmight1 votes

Noxus isn't intended to come across as straight-up evil (though earlier writers did go a little overboard with the imagery). However, Noxus's values are almost directly contradicted by the ones we hold in real life. IRL, we don't expect our own personal strength to lead to greatness - ambition is generally looked down on, and certainly taking things by force is a big no-no. We are far closer to Demacia than Noxus with our societal beliefs, so we naturally look at Noxus and think they're evil.

Doesn't mean they actually are evil, though.

Azir was the father of two, soon to be three, but then...well...you know, obliteration and all that happened.

Do Mordekaiser's Children of the Grave count?

GreenLore1 votes

Well there was this one picture of Mordekaiser(that was obviously drawn by a child) in the Mac-trailer that called him "daddy",sooo...

Elise Is kinda sorta a mother because of her spiderlings I guess... Maokai Is kind of a father if the saplings count, maybe... RekSai I'm pretty sure she's given birth to several members of her species (she is a Queen after all). Skarner If he's still defending his people under that Shuriman tomb, then he might very well have children hibernating down there.

I like the idea of a devoted family man/woman taking to the fields of justice though. I hope Riot does it at some point.

Varus may have been a father before the Noxus invasion.

In the lore it only says "his family". It doesn't have to be parents or grandparents, but can be his own child(ren) as well.

EDIT: Read his judgment, he does have a son. Therefore justifies the line above.

Neamean1 votes

Would this apply to Yi as well?

Actually, his Judgement states that he has a son named Theshan, who he was teaching how to use a bow before his village was destroyed :<.

GreenLore4 votes

Azir is definetly a father.His lore lets him see a vision of how his family(including his children) died.

Varus is also a father(unless that gets retconned)

Me too. Along with Kog'maw's dad since he had/has lines mentioning "daddy coming"

Neamean1 votes

Imagine if he came back as a Shadow Isle Denizen that would be so cool and a let down at the same time. Like shadow Isle General Du Couteau = Epic but damn that mean no normal General Du Couteau. Like how Lissandra was for me, Lissandra the ice dervish so hype then nope you'll get this badass ice witch instead.

Peridition3 votes

Lissandra Kills and assumes the role of her heirs

Kassadin His daughter was captured by Malzahar for a sacrifice ritual (possibly retconned)

Gnar Hinted that he may have had a family prior to be attacked and frozen by the Watchers

DorkunedAuras1 votes

Gnar I hope he isn't a parent though...

GreenLore1 votes

However Lissandras heirs aren't necessarily chosen by their lineage and Gnar is pretty much a child,so it were most likely his parents and his sibling that were killed,not his children.

Braum also counts without his mothers advice he wouldn't be the big strong protector that we know today

doesn't Zac already pretty much count as a champion with a story centered around family?

Neamean1 votes

To me he is more "with great power comes great responsibility" he protect all and not just his family, a classic super hero.

DariusDemiurge1 votes

If I had my way Morgana would be a mother. ( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉) The problem with this is idea, as it is a timeless and classic thing it is also a real lazy way to try making a character appealing to our common nature.

Not using it is also avoiding a pretty crucial aspect of humanity (and existence in general) to not appear cheap.

As Twiggles said that since he protect his kind there is a chance that his family is in slumber so there is a chance that he could be a parent.

Varus and Reksai ok but........who are these folks kids?

Neamean1 votes

Azir is the ancestor or Sivir so he must have kids also he had a story/lore thing that said he has I think 2 kids and expecting another Elise This one is more a possibility her spiderling are her children (ty twiggle for pointing it out) Maokai another one that can be possible and that is his sappling are technically his spawn Zyra same for zyra for her plant cause she is a plant Viktor created Blitzcrank Alistar was taken away from his family we don't know for sure if it from his parent's family or his own where he had children MasterYi is similar to Varus where his family was killed Skarner Protected his entire race their is a possibility that someone who he is protecting could be his children Lissandra Lissandra kill and assume the role of her heir (ty to Peridition)

Also most of these I added to the post after reading the comments so if you wonder why certain champ are in the list there is a high chance that the reason why can be found in the comment section.
