Silco

Silco is a Zaunite drug lord and industrialist, and the adoptive father of Jinx. Silco is a tyrannical and brutal individual, he is a radical supporter of Zaun's independence from Piltover and is willing to do just about anything to achieve it. Silco is a competent leader. He's feared and respected amongst Zaunites. He has built a massive criminal empire on the back of selling shimmer as a drug to the masses, and took over the Last Drop, Vander's former bar, which he transformed into a nightclub. Silco is a callous and brutal yet highly intelligent and cautious man who will do anything to achieve his goals. He believes that the base violence is the only way to stand against Piltover and unite the Underground, and that power only comes to those who will forsake their own morals to achieve it. He is not afraid of having anyone who gets in his way killed. His ultimate goal is to have the Undercity stand independent from the "topsiders" control and allowing it to be self-sufficient, newly formed nation of Zaun. Silco held a strong grudge against his former brother-in-arms Vander, who once shared the same. Despite his grudge, Silco still had some respect left for the man who nearly killed him. Despite all this, he has shown to have some level of compassion, as he embraced and took in the distraught and traumatized Powder (now known as Jinx) after noticing the similarities between the young girl and his past self. Silco is a tall and thin middle-aged man with pale, greyish skin, black hair with grey streaks styled into an undercut, a right blue eye, and heavy scarring on the left side of his face. His most notable trait was his left eye, which lacked an eyelid and appeared to be heavily discolored, with an orange iris and black sclera. He was also generally seen wearing a red and black Piltovan three-piece suit. He also developed an increasing fondness for smoking cigars. Zaun is a large undercity district lying in the deep canyons and valleys threading Piltover. What light reaches below is filtered through fumes leaking from the tangles of corroded pipework and reflected from the stained glass of its industrial architecture. Zaun and Piltover were once united, but are now separate, yet symbiotic societies. Though it exists in perpetual smogged twilight, Zaun thrives, its people vibrant and its culture rich. Piltover's wealth has allowed Zaun to develop in tandem; a dark mirror of the city above. Many of the goods coming to Piltover find their way into Zaun's black markets, and hextech inventors who find the restrictions placed upon them in the city above too restrictive often find their dangerous researches welcomed in Zaun. Unfettered development of volatile technologies and reckless industry has rendered whole swathes of Zaun polluted and dangerous. Streams of toxic runoff stagnate in the city's lower reaches, but even here people find a way to exist and prosper. Zaun is ruled by the Chem-Barons, a group of brutal crime lords who each control a portion of the undercity. A loose criminal alliance of landlords, factory owners, mob bosses, and business tycoons, the chem-barons use their deep pockets and hired muscle to keep the denizens of Zaun in line and prevent the undercity from devolving into chaos. While this pact between the barons has given their researchers and inventors the leeway to push the bounds of their experiments at an accelerated rate, it has also caused the city to be run more like a corrupt corporate business than a fair society of law and order. Sevika is Silco's right-hand woman. She's ruthlessness and cold. Sevika is a muscular, brown skinned woman of middle-age. She has short, black hair and grey eyes. She wears common Zaunite clothing dominated by earth tones with some additional copper elements and accessories. She is often seen wearing a red poncho on top of her regular clothing. Due to a shimmer explosion that took her left arm, Sevika would have it replaced wth a copper colored chemtech prosthetic. Jinx, born as Powder, is Vi's younger sister. After a series of events forced Jinx and her sister apart in more ways than one, she was fundamentally and irrevocably changed, transforming her into the demented killer she is today. She's chaotic and sadistic. Although chaotic and unstable, she's a very skilled inventor with a high level of creativity and intelligence, creating her own arsenal of weapons. Jinx is slender, sinewy, and light-skinned. She wears common punk street fashion typical for Zaunite youth. Her most noticeable features are her tattoos of stylized clouds, as well as her natural blue hair. As a child she would have a short hairstyle with one braid, later transitioning to two long braids as a teen. Finn is a chem-baron and the boss of the Slickjaws. Finn is an arrogant, self-centered, and greedy individual who was deeply invested in his own money and power. As a result, he shows little interest in Silco's goals and only cares about doing business. Finn is a tall and muscular young man of Ionian descent with olive skin, teal eyes, and straight black hair that was fashioned in an undercut that fell to his right side. His skin was extensively decorated with intricate black tattoos, most notably the word "kill" written in gothic calligraphy across his chest. He also had an ostentatious, gold-colored prosthetic jaw and was almost always seen wearing a bright yellow overcoat draped over his shoulders. Vi is Jinx's older sister. A hotheaded and fearless woman who excels at fighting and likes to solve her problems with her fists, she wields a pair of powerful hextech gauntlets that can punch through buildings - and people - with little trouble. Vi is tall, athletic, and light-skinned. She wears common punk street fashion typical for Zaunite and Piltovan youth. Her most noticeable features are her mechanical augment- inspired tattoos across her entire back and arms (including a VI tattoo on her left cheek), as well as her natural pink hair. As a child she would have a short hairstyle with one braid, later transitioning to punk hair with her bangs going to the right side of her head. Ekko is a Zaunite inventor and the boss of the Firelights. He is also the childhood friend of Vi and Jinx. An aggressive and battle-hardened individual, Ekko aspires to free the undercity from Silco's rule and is willing to put everything he has, including his own life, at risk to achieve it. Vander was a Zaunite bartender and the adoptive father of Vi and Jinx . A talented boxer and a good-hearted man, he was widely respected by the denizens of the undercity and was willing to die for his own convictions, especially if it meant saving those he cared about. Vander was a large and muscular middle-aged man with grey eyes, dark hair, and a neatly trimmed greying beard. He was generally seen wearing blue trousers, leather boots, a brown leather jacket over a white undershirt, and a leather pauldron on his upper right arm to cover up the scar that he got from Silco when he was young. Marcus was the corrupt Sheriff of Piltover's Enforcers. Initially, Marcus was a hot-blooded and aggressive person. He was very overzealous about his job. He always looked down people of Zaun and was fully capable of using extreme methods to make justice. However, his lack of experience at his job as enfforcer and naivety made him someone easy to manipulate, such as when he, naively, made a deal with Silco and ended up with his superior's death, something that Marcus always regretted. Marcus is a muscular pale man, with brown eyes and hair (which was graying when he got older), as well as sporting a mustache. He is always seen wearing his Warden uniform with navy blue colors and gold trimmings. Ekko one of many children who grew up in Zaun. Upon the death of his mentor and disappearance of his friends, Ekko finds a way to survive on his own and help others fight back against Silco's reign over their home. Ekko is a Zaunite inventor and the boss of the Firelights. He is also the childhood friend of Vi and Jinx. Forced to find a means to survive, Ekko eventually came to live in hiding with a group of other children, building their base in a rare space that housed one of the very few trees—if not the only tree—to survive in Zaun. The group called themselves the Firelights, after the glowing insects found in Zaun, and began sabotaging Silco's shipments of Shimmer in hopes of hindering its damage to their city. An aggressive and battle-hardened individual, Ekko aspires to free the undercity from Silco's rule and is willing to put everything he has, including his own life, at risk to achieve it. Ekko is a brown-skinned boy with white hair styled in short side dreadlocks. Renni is a chem-baroness and the boss of the Sludgerunners. Renni is a tall, older woman with a dark auburn buzz cut. She noticeably has an augmented nose piece with green tubes coming out of it on either side. Her black eyeliner and eyeshadow give her an imposing look. She wears a light cape that has a heavily feathered collar. On her right temple, she has two studded piercings.
