User blog comment:Umbralis/Nasus - Benevolent or malevolent?/@comment-5035765-20131128112605

First off, NEVER MAKE THE ASSUMPTION THAT SKINS ARE CANON. Even ones that have big reveals and crap like this may be completely non-canon (another reason to miss the JoJ, it helped sort canon from non-canon...).

Second, looking at Infernal Nasus's lines, it seems more like he fell than he ascended... Basically he did what Renek did, but oh so much worse, becoming a harbinger of hell... or somethin like that. I think Riot is aiming to make the Egypt bros a more obvious Stargate reference. If you've never seen Stargate (the movie), it's basically about these people who find a portal machine (a Stargate) that allows them to travel to different worlds. The one they travel to is populated by people of Egyptian decent and aliens that look like the Egyptian gods (animal heads and whatnot) that got stuck on this other planet when the Earth Stargate crapped out...

anyway that was a very long explanation, butyeah... Nasus and Renny may be aliens that got stuck on Runeterra or something... oh wait, they already are... uh...
