To me, Fiddle is like the dad of Runeterra's demons, or at least the one's we have in game so far. You can see in the demonology tree in Fiddle's lore how certain demons stem from Fear. This includes Nighmares, Obsession, Delirium, and others. Then, the lower demons spawn from them underneath. It's very possible that Tahm, Evelynn, Nocturne, and maybe even Shaco (if he ever gets lore lmao) are all "children" of Fiddlesticks. Honestly, if this is the case, I really wanna see this expanded on!
Nice video, one correction. Eve and tahm are not primordial demons they’re just stronger demons. The primordial demons are larger emotions, we know there are 10 of them and 2 of them are in any league lore at the moment. It’s fiddlesticks and ashlash, both of which both feed off of very general emotions, fear and joy respectively.
I think you’re referring to the “10 Kings”, which you are right, does not include Evelynn or Tahm Kench. However, Tahm Kench and Evelynn are considered “Primordial/Ancient Demons” since they are some of the first demons/entities to come into existence on Runeterra (>10,000 years old)
@@yonats yeah, I guess I was confused and was just using the word “Primordial” to mean very old, but it means something else within the world of Runeterra, so I just changed the title to “Ancient” instead. Thanks for the feedback!
So just to explain there is actually more Primal(Primal Emotions) Demons and lesser Demons in runeterra lore are still lacking lore but they are: The Demon of Primal: Fear - Fiddlesticks Happyness - Ashlesh The Demons - The Demon of Greed - Tahm Kench The Demon of Dispair - Evelynn The Demon of Secrecy - Raum The Demon of Fire - Tybaulk The Demon of Nighmares - Nocturne These are what each demon eats, Nocturne it on people fears of Nightmares, Raum eats people Secrets, Evelynn feeds on Dispair, Tahm on Greed, Fiddle on Fear itself, and Ashlesh in Happyness
Demons are very interesting since their first appearance in league's lore I do think however Fiddlesticks, and the 9 other demon lords (Who Eve and Kench are not part of) should be Raid bosses, like end bosses They are incredibly powerfull, almost deity-like Nilah, possess in her the power of Ashlesh, the 7th demon lord (And second we know about), the Primordial Demon of Joy, and Jared, the Rioter who did all the worldbuilding on demons said that her power level is at the same level of a Targonian Aspect Meaning Demon Lords are probably as powerfull as Targonian Gods, Fiddlesticks isn't atm because he didn't unlocked his full capacity, from what i could gather from Jared's post, it seems like the demons lords have some sort of "crown" which makes them the 10 kings But Fiddle doesn't have his, at least not yet, tho he is trying to make it from what the Rioter was trying to hint at On the other hand i do feel like the very strong but normal demons are also very interesting, Eve, Tahm, Raum, Nocturne are all also very interesting on their own They could be like you said dungeon bosses, tho they still are a very important part of runeterra But it's extremely important to separate normal demons from the 10 lords Normal demons starts as Azakanas, then feed on specific emotions, to become bigger and then eat a wider range of emotion However at some point they arrive at a wall, and behind it are the lords, a normal demon cannot become a demon lord Those 10 were born at the very beggining of the universe and feed on their respective emotions as they ARE the emotion Fiddlesticks feeds on fear as much as he IS fear incarnate, he is the concept itself of fear made manifest, same for Ashlesh, he IS joy in all its shapes an forms and he feeds on people being joyous
Tahm Kench and Evelynn could be made into actual quests, (infiltrating Eve's cult, helping a stranger to get rid of Tahm), but Fiddle could be really powerful enemy encountered after battles or just while traveling through war-torn locations. Although how to deal with him is another subject, since you can't fight it let alone run from it. (Also; cool video, awaiting more if you're planning on it)
I love fiddle stick's lore and I can't even play him. his design, lore, and voice lines are so off putting and frightening that you can't help but be curious about his origins.
It would be interesting if all versions of fiddlesticks, from different skinlines and stuff, were all the avatars of the same being. Also, i think it would be cool if fiddlesticks was somewhat like Stitches from Wow classic, where he would pop up occasionally in the village or the surrounding area and torment all the players within a radius for a random amount of time before disappearing again.
Hey I’m quite new to lol ive seen arcane and now I’ve fallen in love with fiddlesticks are there any other good sources of fiddlesticks lore out there I’ve been searching around and it seems kinda sparse
Fiddlesticks lore is pretty sparce. The only canon lore that I know is from the links in the Description: - The Ancient Fear: universe.leagueoflegends.com/en_US/story/champion/fiddlesticks/ - Voices: universe.leagueoflegends.com/en_US/story/fiddlesticks-color-story/ - Terror in Demacia: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jNn2F39G-6s.html Other than that, there are only small mentions of him here and there, like in The Mageseeker, Ruined King, and Convergeance games. But those are more like Easter egg mentions than actual appearances. Hopefully the Riot MMO will focus on him and the other demons as some of the main antagonists! Since you're new to LoL, there is a Wiki that has a pretty good summary of all of the characters, as well as some non-canon/alternate universe lore. Here's Fiddlestick's page if you're interested: leagueoflegends.fandom.com/wiki/Fiddlesticks @@nuttyboi6645
