We know that the ancient Watchers were essentially the highest level and most intelligent of the Void Creatures and in the latest cinematic we saw a creature who is probably a watcher share a resemblance to Vel'Koz. If this is so then is Vel'Koz able to grant people powers and create new Iceborn?

Meep Man1 votesBoth Vel'Koz and the creature in the short are not Watchers. Apparently the Watchers are very significantly larger and frightening.

Actually it was confirmed by the map with ryze that it is a watcher which is drawn to the world runes 'Far beyond the known lands of Valoran, in the deepest, darkest spaces beneath the world, even the mythical Watchers are drawn to the power of the World Runes…'
GreenLore1 votesA rioter confirmed that it is not a watcher,but a voidborn But the watchers are the masters of the void,so I guess that some of the voidborn are modeled after the watchers themselves
The fact that he says we should expect more soon,makes me hope that Nunus VGU will give us some insight into the watchers(after all Nunu is an ex-member of the frostguard in his current lore)
Hovering Hentai1 votesVel'Koz may be a high ranking Voidborn given his intelligence and terrifying power but he is not a Watcher or the creature in the cinematic.
Rioters have stressed that Watchers are BIG... possibly cosmic level big.
It does however raise the question as to why Ryze found a Voidborn underneath all that ice.... maybe a void rift was open in the Freljord at some point....
