I really like Mordekaiser's current lore. It's just vague enough to fit into the whole "Four-Horseman-of-the-Apocalypse" there Riot has going on for the Shadow Isles.

'Cuz you see, Karthus was fascinated with death, and has a Grim Reaper skin. He is Death.

Hecarim is the "shadow of war", leading a spectral army. He is War.

Thresh basically eats souls (or stores them in a lantern to snack later, whatever) and gains the "soul glutton" buff after consuming enough. He is Famine.

Mordekaiser is the last Horseman, he is either Conquest or Pestilence, depending on the interpretation of scripture you read. He even says "your sickness... sustains me", so yeah, probably Pestilence, since that's the name that Yorick's skill has. Yorick was also a clear hint at this with his omens (besides a cool Shakespearian reference), and don't even get me started on who/what I think Evelynn is...

Anyway, that's just my opinion.
