We have a WOLF in a sheep's mask, and a LAMB in a wolf's mask.
"Lamb, tell me a story..."
Many noted that wolf, despite having a growly voice seemed more childlike, and innocent, asking many questions.
But maybe....maybe this is because it was really the lamb speaking through the wolf's mask.
And many noted that Lamb was more creepy, but maybe this is because it was a "wolf in sheep's clothing".
I think what made lamb creepy is that people know it's a type of spirit talking, and what sets off "creep" is when a spirit can speak with a very soothing voice instead of a "normal' one.
I will not lie, I think it would be very neat if Riot defied expectations by making the docile looking Lamb the ferocious beast and Wolf the gentle voice of reason. That said, this is Riot, and tropes are much easier to sell than subversions.
It's like people don't know the Yin Yang symbol. The white half has black inside. The black half has white inside. This champion is obviously transmitting it in its art design.
The Lamb which is 'good' wears the Wolf mask. The Wolf which is 'bad' has the Lamb mask.
Have you seen the Vsauce video what is the brightest thing in the universe? Direct quote from his video, "The process that unshackles the most light, is caused by the thing that best inprisons it."
The Wolf seems indeed innocent and childish, but he's scary. The Lamb is the opposite, intelligent and charming. Just like psychopaths ;D
UPDATE
Well the thing is if we look at the abilities; W is named "Wolf's Frenzy" and involves the spectral wolf attacking, while Lamb's Respite's icon depicts the wolf mask, indicating that it's the figure, not the mask that dictates who the individuals are. Hell Wolf's Frenzy even says that Wolf temporarily splits from Lamb so it stands to reason Lamb is the archer and Wolf is the...wolf. Heh!
