Kindred has one of the most important roles in the mythology of Runeterra, despite being one of many, Kindred is one of the many interpretations of the “Essence” of death itself. The being is the balance in death, the ruthless devourer for those who try and escape death; wolf, and the swift and painless escape for those who embrace it; lamb.
However, sometimes even the embodiment of death can use a little exaggerated swagger, but picking what swagger works best can be a little difficult, so here are all Kindred skins from least beautiful to murderously gorgeous!
4. Super Galaxy Kindred

The mythical beings with Sci-fi gear have well-detailed animations on every ability and a polished orange and black look to give them that sleek yet uncanny feel that perfectly hits the spot.
Super Galaxy Kindred is an epic skin, costing 1350 RP, and can be purchased at any point from the store.
3. Shadowfire Kindred

An ethereal being summoned to fight off the Ashen Knights, Kindred is born of the Shadowflame with one goal, but summoning the essence of destruction and rebirth may bring unforeseen consequences.
The skin is the most serious design that Kindred has, clad in orange and black, the skin carries a weight of seriousness, painting Kindred as an almost vengeful demonic entity.
The skin is considered epic because of the effort put into the new animations and effects on each of its abilities, placing its worth at 1350 RP but making it available at all times.
2. Porcelain Kindred

Mortal hunters that were bonded onto porcelain marks, now protect the magic that keeps them alive while guiding their disciples how to guard themselves. Porcelain Kindred gives Lamb actual human characteristics while still maintaining the eerie guise that they wear, covering the top half of their face for that dissonance that tells us this being is not entirely human.
The skin is another epic skin, with brand new animations on each of Kindred’s abilities and special effects, placing it at 1350 RP like every other skin and making it accessible at all times.
1. Spirit Blossom Kindred

There’s no lying that the Spirit Blossom skin line has some of the most gorgeous colour palettes and kindred is absolutely breathtaking (maybe even literally) and gives us probably one of the most haunting skin biographies Riot has ever released, and it just simply goes “A child and a wolf, what can they do? They are spirits, the last spirits you will ever see. The last thing you will ever see.”
The Ghibli-Esque soft tones are worth dying for (pun intended), with wolf being the pale white contrast to the pastel colours lamb is decorated with. On top of that, the little details like the music Lamb plays during the recall and the mark animation on the ultimate are absolutely beautiful.
The skin just like every other Kindred skin is an epic skin worth 1350 RP and can be purchased at any point from the in-game store.
