Abridged Bio
Ekko
Ekko is a brilliant, resourceful boy from the undercity of Zaun who was forced to grow into a determined leader. As a child, he tinkered with gadgets and fiercely loyal to his friends, especially Powder (later Jinx) and Vi. After the tragic events that tear them apart, Ekko survives and eventually becomes the leader of the Firelights, a group that resists Silco’s control and the spread of shimmer. He’s inventive, courageous, and driven by a desire to protect his people and reclaim hope for Zaun, though in the end, he's not the hero, and he doesn't get the happy ending.
