Jax's true identity
Hey guys, I recently started maining Jax
, and as always, whenever I get really into a champion, I get really into their lore. Now on Universe, Jax's lore doesn't say much. His story doesn't say much, but there is one part that gives us a huge clue about who he is. Well... 2 things actually, but in the same paragraph. I quote "Jax sighed; to see a land at peace made him homesick for a land that no longer existed. He shook off the chill of memory, knowing thoughts of Icathia would distract him." This might not seem relevant to the people who aren't really into the lore, but Icathia was an ancient land bordering Shurima. Shurima occupied Icathia, but Icathia revolted, and used a secret weapon they found. Unfortunately for them, the secret weapon was a gateway to the Void. They completely destroyed all the Shuriman forces, but the Void destroyed Icathia and almost all it's people. In fact, there are only 2 known survivors. 1. Zilean, and 2. Jax. But you can read that here: https://universe.leagueoflegends.com/en_US/story/where-icathia-once-stood/
The second thing that ties into the history of Jax is the egg. His story says "Jax lifted his mask and bit into the egg................... Jax held up a finger while he finished his egg." Now again, this might seem like something completely random, but in the story "Where Icathia Once Stood, The main character befriends two warriors, one of them named (oh boy this is not gonna be fun to write) Colgrim Avel-Essa Kohari Icath'un, and the other named Saijax Cail-Rynx Kohari Icath'un. They were members of the special forces of Icathia, the Kohari. In the story, as the Shuriman forces encroach on their position, Saijax and Colgrim calmly eat some boiled eggs, then get ready to fight. In the story, the main character survives the battle, but loses track of one of his friends, Saijax. A little while later, the Void consumes every thing, and kills everyone there, including the main character. However, Saijax Cail-Rynx Kohari Icath'un most likely realized that there was a problem, so he ran away as fast as he could, that's why the main character couldn't find him. He most likely got far enough to escape death, but was corrupted by the Void (Purple skin, 3 fingers.) He survived, and maybe the Void kind of... gave him partial immortality, so that he could live a very long time. Eventually, he shortened his name from Saijax Cail-Rynx Kohari Icath'un, to just the second half of his first name, Jax. He most likely wears the facial part of a Mirmirillo ( is that how you spell it?) mask, to conceal his identity, but after all these years, it is most likely to strike fear into his opponents, and to hide his corrupted face. Here is an image of that type of mask: http://www.vroma.org/images/mcmanus_images/helmetgriffin_orig.jpg
As you can see, the faceplate looks remarkably like Jax's "eyes."
And that is pretty much all I have to say... do you guys think it could pass? Does it make sense? I'd also really appreciate some comments, and some upvotes :) And if you read this far, congratulations, you're officially really, REALLY, into LoL Lore.
