Riot, I have a suggestion for the lore pages...

Ok, so you all know how short the new lore pages can be. Usually nowadays, each new champion gets, at most, a paragraph of lore. Here's Aurelion Sol's page as an example:

As you can see, he only has a measly paragraph to tell his story. I am well aware that Sol has his own lore page online, but to a player who wasn't around when he was released, they may never find it. The lore page in the client should give a snapshot into a champion's story. The reason we even have lore is to make sure these characters we love to play aren't just mindless constructs. They have purposes, goals, motivations. They are CHARACTERS, not tools.

I understand that it takes time to write paragraphs upon paragraphs of well structured story (and you guys at Riot already accomplished this with many of the new champions, just not in client), so I have a compromise that would make the store's lore pages look more beautiful.

I know, I know, this looks bad. But this is just me quickly putting some pictures together to show my idea. Since the lore pages already look like pages from a journal, why not complete the aesthetic? What do good journals need? Drawings! Take for example, one of the journal entries taken from Lewis and Clark themselves:

A good drawing can really illustrate (heh) an idea. If Riot took some of the concept art they had for champions and sketch-ified them, they can find a new home on so many of the empty lore pages out there. So, what do you guys think? Good idea or no?

If you think so, please leave an upvote so someone at Riot can see this idea! Thank you for your time, and have a nice day!
