![]() ![]() In desperation, Silco turned to Singed, a scientist, to save her, chemically altering her but saving her from death. Experimentation Īfter blowing up one of her bombs during a fight against her childhood friend Ekko, Jinx was critically injured. After a fight with a local gang that had been tracking them, Vi and Caitlyn were kidnapped and Jinx was left alone. However, she came with Caitlyn Kiramman, an enforcer, leading her to think that Vi was only there to get the crystal back and arrest her. She went to the rooftop of a tall building and lit the flare. She was told to light it in case of an emergency and that Vi would come find her. Afterwards, Jinx decided to light a flare that Vi had given her as a child. Shortly after, Jinx found out that Vi had returned from prison after interrogating Sevika. The stolen crystal lead to searches being performed in Zaun by enforcers. She showed this to Silco, to which he said that she should make a weapon in case they needed to retaliate against Piltover if they decided to come after him. To do so, she decided to steal a newly made Hextech crystal from Jayce Talis. During her stay with Silco, she became more destructive as well as chaotic, adopting her name as Jinx.Ġ9 November 2009 Stolen Crystal and Vi's Return Īfter Jinx failed to protect one of Silco's shipments of Shimmer, she wanted to prove herself to him again. Powder was scarred from this experience, hearing the voices of Mylo and Claggor in her head constantly and even seeing hallucinations of their dead bodies. Powder had another breakdown and found comfort in Silco, who adopted her as his daughter. After finding out Powder was responsible, Vi yelled at her, referring to her as a 'jinx' that ruins lives before walking away. The explosion destroyed Silco's Shimmer production facility, but also killed Vander, Mylo, and Claggor. Upon seeing her family in trouble, Powder set off a handmade bomb, powered by Hextech crystals. This led to her being sad and crying in her room until she discovers the stolen Hextech crystals' destructive potential and goes to Vander's location. The children decided to rescue Vander, but Vi told Powder to remain home. Zaunite crime lord Silco attacked the Enforcers and kidnapped Vander in order to both take revenge on Vander for betraying him years before and to accrue power. To shield his adopted children, Vander claimed responsibility and allowed himself to be arrested. The four would-be thieves inadvertently lead the Enforcers back to the Zaunite slum known as The Lanes. This alerted the Piltover Enforcers which lead to a chase through the city. ![]() Powder mishandled unrefined Hextech crystals, leading to an explosion that seriously damaged the building. Life in the undercity was difficult, but Powder was able to stay out of trouble until she Vi, Mylo, and fellow adoptee Claggor decided to break into the Piltover apartment of Jayce Talis in order to carry out a burglary. Powder was always teased by her adopted brother Mylo due to her clumsiness, and was always defended by Vi. Seeing the girls in distress, Zaunite defender Vander abandoned the battle to keep them safe, taking them away to Zaun. At a young age, then-Powder and her sister Vi were orphaned during a battle between Piltover and the people of Zaun. That's my line of reasoning.Jinx's real name was "Powder". "I think had I heard the voices in the game, it would've subtly influenced me and I probably wouldn't have got the part. "I think it's better that way because it's not going to influence my interpretation," she explained. As such, she didn't have many preconceived notions of Jinx or her character from the video game which better allowed her to bring her own spin to the performance. Purnell went on to also explain that much of his exposure to League of Legends came about with research that she did prior to working on Arcane. It's just like being a kid and I'm playing make believe. It's like you really get to explore the full range of your vocal cords. There's just so much stuff, it's completely otherworldly. ![]() "It's like there's no limit to what you can do, right? Because you're doing triple backflips and flying off buildings and blowing things up with toy monkey bombs. Very rarely do you get a character like this come into your inbox, especially being animation," Purnell said. Compared to many other characters that pop up in Arcane, Jinx is a bit of a wild card, leading to Purnell saying that she had a blast when doing the voice work. In an interview with, Arcane voice actress Ella Purnell opened up more about what it was like to play Jinx, who is one of the most iconic champions in the history of League of Legends.
