I think that it's safe to assume that we'll eventually get more Darkin champions. Not sure about an event for them though (could be cool- fleshing out some of their background in general and such). Anyways, I don't think that Riot will give you a direct "Yes" or "No" answer, cause they just usually don't spoil the beans on whether they do or don't have something in the works. :P

I'd assume myself any new Darkin, considering that they're very few in number, would be part of an event concerning a different part of the lore like Ionia or Targon rather than anything Darkin specific. Maybe their influences would be involved as a whole showing just how much of an effect their race has had on the world, but I doubt we'll see a "Darkin Event" so to speak.

I'd safetly assume though, as Mr/Mrs/Whatever.DwarvenGiant has already said, we'll get a new Darkin eventually. It's just dependant on how that Darkin plays in game, what their place in the lore is, what kind of fantasy they hope to invoke with them, etc. I'm personally hoping for an Asura like Darkin that's linked to Ionia but that's just me.

I doubt that we'll get a darkin-event,I mean we just got one darkin currently and he isn't really in the need of any retcons,like most nations.

If there is going to be an event completely centered around darkins,I'd say it would come with the introduction of the 5th and final darkin.

However considering that the darkins can have huge influences on history,I'd say it is not impossible for a darkin to be added during an event centered around a nation.

There was a leaked thing given out by some guy on reddit, but apparently a darkin named Raa'tul is an adc that is going to be released next. Also, the bow varus has is stolen from Raa'tul. Raa'tul watched over varus as did Aatrox to tryndamere. And an event is going to happen in september to twisted treeline. He did predict the gp rework in late june or early july so... However, with Bilgewater in disarray and they are the ones who do stop most of the Harrowing, I would not be suprised if a Darkin happened to show up to come help. Maybe Aatrox or another Darkin.
