Im just curious, Because Aatrox is the only known darkin and his lore says he is one of five so are we going to get the the other 4 as well at some point in the game? i mean honestly, Aatrox probably misses his brothers/sisters

Aatrox probably doesn't even know they're alive. It's likely been many, MANY thousands of years since he's seen a living darkin.
I wanna pose a darkin question for ya'll. Three of the five are known to human history, including Aatrox. So what the ever loving sod could those other two possibly be doing with their time?! As much as the remaining two who're known to history is something I wanna see explored, I'm wondering what could be so damn important that would keep these other two from coming in to contact with humans, to the point where they're not even footnotes in the annals of history.
What if we already got some of the Darkins, we just dont know it yet.
in before taric retconed to be a darkin :D
Beatrice = Darkin Demon ravens are nice.
So to clarify, Tryndamere is just a barbarian who was almost killed by Aatrox. Aatrox is also in Jax's splash art from the flames coming from the post, however I do not believe either of these are Darkin. I believe we have indirectly learned about 2 of the other Darkin. One of them could be the King who created the Shadow Isles, or had some influence in the situation (Read Hecarim's or Kalista's new lore) and the other one could be the Void. I have long since believed that the Void is a creature or being of some kind that corrupts or creates beings or creatures that thirst or crave something. However I'm not sure about Darkin being Void, just something I came up with.
Isn't 
a dracula or whatever?
Has no one else thought that Kindred could be Darkin? There's a lot of speculation that the Darkin were the four horsemen of the apocalypse, and Kindred's clearly death.
they probably all have the same kit as him
Judging by the look of Aatrox,I imagine that the other 4 darkins might all be based on classical demons to some extent. You know the red guys with horns and so on.(like an Oni,an imp or simply a big monstrous demon,like diablo)
Because our actual demons in Runeterra don't seem to look like these types of demons at all(
)
I reckon we've seen other Darkin, we're just not aware they're Darkin.
Vladimir strikes me as a Darkin. Not Vladimir himself, but the power that transfers itself from one host to another as we've seen in his lore. We have no idea how long that parasitic power has been moving from host to host, or its origin.
From Aatrox, we've seen that his sword absorbs the life energies of others, while also sacrificing Aatrox's own life force to deal more damage. Vladimir's kit seems like a more primitive version of a Darkin sword. I reckon it'd be a nice plot twist for a Darkin blade to be sentient, and that the power that possessed Vladimir was a Darkin 'blade' that was broken and freed, looking for a vessel to carry it.
