I love that Bel'Veth is proof that the Void's purpose has backfired. The Watchers made it adapt to anything so nothing reality throws at it can stop it. Yet that adaptation has caused the Void to want to exist. Now it wants to become as much like life as possible. The Watchers have essentially doubled their problems now.

Bel'veth is basically "The enemy of my enemy is my friend", and I love it.

Reality: "Wait, I am the bad guy?

[@Crabmaster4774]

I like that the reason for Bel'Veth to have a head is less to be attractive (which will always be part of the reason) but is instead to make her approachable. As Kai'sa said, she liked it better when she had the human head. This allows ger to not only be a leader in battle, but also a leader in negotiations. Bel'Veth being a leader and taking a humanoid form is changing the Void from a faceless species of destruction to an actual faction.

Other voidborn often acts similar to the creature they're based on. Cho'gath and Rek'sai acts like an apex predator driven by the desire to consume. While Vel'koz wants to destroy reality much like the watchers themselves. But Bel'veth, created by consuming an entire city, acts like a society. it wants to live and thrive.

[@ViegoBrando]

Are they saying that Bel'Veth has thousands of years of collective life experience?

[@xDoomfirex]

Don't forget fiddlesticks, the first scream of creation. He was the Fear the void felt when reality was thrust upon them.

It's be really cool if they went the doomslayer route with Kassadin.

[@abrahamleo5243]

So bel veth turn out to be somewhat a positive figure, interestingly she might have been affected by human affection and wisdom as she consumed the city, and become the genesis of void revolution. The concepts behind these stories are just brilliant

[@vikerish3633]

I absolutely LOVE that Bel'Veth is so unquestionable, so unavoidable that the offer of her choice is terrifying. "Your people will be given a chance, a chance that means nothing, but its more than the watchers would give" what a great way to make a partnership with the villain

[@miZuZYN]

Ngl, the way Riot wrote her bio is super cool. I think we haven't had a bio like hers before?

[@thelastcrow5660]

Bel'Veth is already so much more interesting than Viego was. It would appear that Riot learned from their mistakes and they actually gave us a villain who is not only threatening, but also complex.

"Perhaps, in time, they wouldfind a weapon to slay her. Or a hero to face her."

[@billalchaouche8820]

Watchers: create void to erase reality

[@DiegoHernandez-vv3iv]

"Perhaps you can find a weapon or a warrior. You will not"

[@SilverDarkin]

Kassadin is so cool and yet he has so little lore, I can't wait for him to get more story.

[@wolfphantom3492]

imagine bel'veth trying to predict what rammus was thinking

[@Kyle-qd2sy]

Necrit points out the use of sound is hinting at Bard, but we all know it’ll be Seraphine

[@artinsaphire3081]

I can't wait to see a cinematic with Vel'koz vs Bel'veth because both of them seem to have lots of power

[@thedragonknight3600]

With this story I feel like Bel’Veth’s design makes a hell of a lot more sense. she’s not a predator hunting people, luring them in with her false appearance before striking. She’s a THING playing at being human. Taking a human shape not out of necessity or cruel efficiency. But out of a desire to emulate. Even if it’s uncanny, strange and incomplete. She’s not just alive. She’s sentient. And that’s freaking horrifying.
