Wouldnt Yorick be Famine? I know it's a bit of a stretch but his story is all about these burdens that he carries (filling his quota, guilt/shame/regret over his failures in life and death) and his desperate attempt to preserve his family's legacy. It's kinda like Famine but he's starving for freedom and success rather than sustenance. Plus, his kit and play-style is more about a battle of attrition (wittling the enemy down, sustaining himself, runs OOM very easily) than any other champion from the Shadow Isles so it fits thematically.

I mean all of his active abilities are directly named after the four hoursman so he's obviously meant to represent them in some way. Maybe he's supposed to represent the more abstract idea of the apocalypse? He at least partially represents all four of the hoursmen who together bring forth the apocalypse.

Just my 2c.
