What champions might be of interest to the Black Rose and it's future?

The assumption is that the champions currently involved with the Black Rose are Leblanc , Swain , Vladimir and Elise . Elise is not confirmed but likely, I guess. Vayne seem to be an enemy to the group. What other champions do you think has potential as being relevant to their interests or has potential to be members, for example? How about other enemies to the group? I got some thoughts, would love to hear yours.

  • Cassiopeia got transformed into a snake-creature. She's Noxian. The Black Rose *might *have sent her to Shurima in the first place, I guess. Potentially someone that could be easily brought into the fold either way.
  • Morgana will likely get a story overhaul, but hers and Kayle's relationship has always resembled the Noxus/Demacia one. She could potentially be made relevant to the Black Rose; like its founder or a member or whatnot.
  • Evelynn is in the same lore-limbo as Morgana. The Black Rose is all about immortality it seems to me, so if Eve stays a vampiric creature she might fit in.
  • Ahri is also a life-absorbing creature. Potentially she'd fit in, I guess? Growing morality might be a hindrance for her being a member, but her skills might still be of interest to them.
  • Annie is a powerful mage, but I suppose she'd only be related to the group indirectly, if at all. Her mother, the Shadow Witch, and her father, the Gray Warlock, *were * Noxians though; sounds pretty Black Rose-y to me.
  • Ryze ? Who knows. Indirectly, possibly. Another enemy to the group perhaps?
  • Shaco /Nocturne /Fiddlesticks . Any one of them could be fruits of the Black Rose's interest in dark magic, like Sion was. Fiddlesticks share similarities to Swain's powers. Who knows.
  • Zyra doesn't have much in the way of goals and future plans yet. She would fit right into the evil mage crowd, though. Elise and her could probably be buddies.
  • Maokai , the last spark of his forest's magic. In the past the Shadow Isles' forest magic fed dark rituals; maybe he also would be interesting to the Black Rose for similar reasons: a power source.
  • Aatrox. Maybe?

I'd love the Black Rose to be explored more. What do you people think?

Cass is on Kat's side and they hate Black rose for the possible involvement in their father's disappearance.

Aatrox Aatrox has no interest in black magics. He wants to bring out the darkness of human wars. He just wants to see cruel fighting. EveEvelynn surely woudn't want to spend her time with Lb's gang when shes one of the top assassins. MaokaiMaokai surely woulnd't. He despises human magicks as it is what ruined his home and him. AnnieAnnie came from a exile dark group from Noxus, she wouldn't betray her clan. ZyraZyra has no interest in communicating with anything other then nature. As she still preys on animals and people. AhriAhri wouldnt, as she gained a self consicence. Aware of whats wrong. MorgMorgana is likely. CassCassiopeia is like her sister, a noxian noble, and wouldn't want to be the bad side of noxus. RyzeRyze is a rogue mage, who wouldnt settle for a shady group if he isn't learning anything new from magic. Shaco Nocturne Fiddlesticks ----only fiddle stix seems likely. Shaco is an assassin who kills people for fun, no interest. Nocturne is pretty much the same.

I could imagine that Evelynn & Shaco get hired by the black rose from time to time. I mean if the black rose needs an assassin they would most likely go for someone from outside who will remain silent about it and probably not a noxian like Talon

I'm not sure Morgana really would have any interest in the Black Rose and it's political deal hs. Her whole shtick is about tearing down restrictions to allow for greater freedom.

I read somewhere that The black rose might be interested in Veigar

Why?

Escaping from the Noxian prison must be really hard (even harder than escaping from a normal Jail, i guess)... and there is one person who did it without help... a yordle, Veigar. And he escaped BEFORE learning the dark magics.

Noxians think that the strength and power are the most important things and they hate the yordles for their weakness... But Veigar showed them that the yordles are strong too, after all, not even humans can escape from that prison with ease.

And as i already mentioned... that happened before becoming one of the strongest wizzards of the world. I'm pretty sure that the black rose would be interested in meeting a master of the magical black arts like him.... Even though, i think that Veigar might hate the Noxians.

Talon Even tho Kat hates the Black Rose, I cannot help but feel that he belongs to the rose. He is shown to be with Swain in the SA of BBRiven , and then there is this

Katarina Definitely suspects they have something to do with her father's disappearance and that they may have similar plans for her. Especially if Cassiopeia has possible ties to them and seems strangely reluctant to discuss the topic.

Talon May also consider himself in danger of being "retired" if he asks the wrong questions or becomes a problem some other way.

Darius Although the Black Rose has helped further his own interests so far, he probably wonders if his own vision for a new, reformed Noxus is at all consistent with whatever they ultimately hope to achieve.

I actually see Malzahar as a strong candidate. He gains political power through the Black Rose, and the Black Rose gains access to his unique knowledge and his cult.
