Kassadin's Bio and
> Cutting a burning swath through the darkest places of the world, Kassadin knows his days are numbered. Though once a notorious adventurer, he had chosen to live anonymously and raise a family among the nomad tribes of Shurima—until the day his daughter was claimed by the Void. Kassadin vowed to bring her back, combining a number of arcane artifacts and forbidden technologies for the struggle ahead. His precautions were not enough, however, and these devices now only serve to slow the insidious corruption that ravages his body... but he will gladly pay that price, if only he can save her...
This is Kassadin's current Bio according to the League of legends Wiki. The old one is found here.
I have a few problems with this new one. Yes, it is a bio, but remember that so was Varus's. In fact, it bares a good resemblance to Varus's old lore.
My main problem is that Kassasin's void corruption was never portrayed to be similar to Varus's or Malzy's. In the Original lore, He found Icathia by himself, willingly seeking it out. He saw the void with all it's wonders and horrors... and came out a changed man. The Void didn't drive him insane as it did Malz, but his body was altered. It wasn't slowly killing him, the void had changed him. He used his knowledge to gather powerful allies and basically went around sealing void rifts with his Protectors of Valoran.
His daughter had her first mention in a Joj Article (I can't find the exact issue) where Malzy sacrificed her to the void. It was in Zaun, of all places and Kassadin tried to stop Malzy (Also interesting to note that Malz thought that Kass was here to join up with him and was confused that he was being so intrusive to stop a human sacrifice.) Kassadin... didn't exactly win, and caused a massive power outage in zaun (and since it was portrayed as a place where everyone was a mad scientist in those days. They really didn't care about the cult and tried to have Kass arrested.)
I really like this, as Kassadin had been mostly successful up to that point. It's his biggest failure, and I really liked that about the incident. Kass has his organization and his powers, but it wasn't enough to save his daughter. it reminds me of the classic I let Gwen Stacy Die comic.
If I was writing the new lore, I would keep things sort of the same, but expand on it. Kass would be introduced after his transformation, and his colour story would be arguing with his family. He would then leave and never interfere in their lives for years.
Then, i would do an event in either Zaun or Shurima (Personally, given all the apparatuses on him I would put him in Zaun) where his daughter is kidnapped but the Void cult and Kass rushes to save her. It would suck in Taliyah/Ekko (as they would be friends with his daughter) and other characters. Kassadin would confront Malz... too late, as his Daughter would be sent into the void. She would come back in some form... as a void-creature in an epilodge
However, looking at Kass's current bio.... he seems like he got a bit of a lore nerf. His story is way to similar to Varus (old varus anyways.) I don't know, it just seems weaker in comparison to his old Bio. Guess that Second Paragraph is important.
Anyways, what do you guys think?
