Kindred theories

So, I am a little confused about Kindred's lore, and I love that! As a huge lore nerd, I love games where the lore is vague at first but then clears up, and we will be getting more details on kindred during the harrowing event that is coming up. So, my question: is Kindred the "real" death, or just a manifestation of it? For example, we know that the rest of Magg's troop got the wolf death... but the wolf wasnt actually there - the bandits kill her. At the same time, it seems like Magg herself was ACTUALLY killed by an arrow from Lamb.

Theories anyone?

Magg was killed by a heart attack, hence the 'sharp pain in her chest'. As to your direct question, Kindred seems to be for all intents and purposes Death itself.

Here's some pieces from the Riot Q&A :

> **Kindred don't choose who to take. They are the moment of death. **If you see them, it's your time. Some people narrowly escape death, but watch it claim others -- people who survive tragedy -- and in that case it's an awakening one's own mortality."

> Yes, that's very close to who they are! They are the bringers of death who arrive in the final moments of a mortal's life. Whether their target runs from or accepts their fate determines how peaceful (Lamb) or violent (Wolf) their death will be."
