I got curious about why the wiki syntax is missing from the descriptions. So I snooped around the wiki and found a way to pull the descriptions from the source of the article. Edited the code a bit to do that automatically and it seems to work with a few flaws.
I'm not sure if we can build the ability object from that source. It's possible to add this syntax to brin.
How it works:
The rich syntax (like the one available for items) can be found at https://leagueoflegends.fandom.com/wiki/Template:Data_{champion}/{ability_name}?action=edit
Descriptions sometimes contain HTML elements like comments or tags
Code is around twice as slow as now we need another request to fill out the descriptions for each ability.
Other than that seems to work. Some examples of the changes for Aatrox/Deathbringer_Stance -
Innate: Periodically, Aatrox empowers his next basic attack to gain 50 bonus range and deal bonus magic damage equal to 4% − 12% (based on level) of the target's maximum health, capped at 100 against monsters. Aatrox heals for 80% of the post-mitigation bonus damage dealt, reduced to 25% against minions.

Would you guys be interested in merging this sort of functionality (assuming the PR is good). Perhaps behind some feature flag so it's backward compatible?
