Ellie Williams was born in the spring of 2019, by which the Cordcyeps brain infection had spread throughout the United States. Her mother was a nurse named Anna, the identity of her father unknown. On the day of her birth, her mother passed away. Before her death, Anna entrusted her closest friend, Marlene, to look after Ellie. However, Ellie did not meet Marlene until she was 13 years old. As a child, Ellie grew up as an orphan in an oppressive military quarantine zone in Boston, Massachusetts, with little knowledge of the world before infection.

Childhood best friends, Ellie and Riley, had a falling out. Riley disappeared from the school and Ellie is drafted into the military. In the summer of 2033, Riley returns, revealing Marlene allowed her to become a Firefly. Riley takes Ellie to a mall and explains that there’s still power in the city, letting Ellie turn the lights on. The two fool around in a photo booth before finding an arcade. Riley helps Ellie visualize how to play, describing the actions for the character Angel Knives. Ellie says she has to go and Riley admits she's being relocated to another Firefly hideout. Ellie encourages Riley to leave. Riley takes Ellie’s Walkman and hooks it up to one of the audio systems in the store. The two climb on top of a counter and dance. Not long after, Ellie stops, suddenly sad, and asks Riley not to leave her. Riley removes her pendant and drops it on the floor as her answer. Ellie then kisses Riley. They are caught off guard by the sudden arrival of runners attracted to the sound of the music. Riley leads Ellie through the mall, evading the infected. They get away but Riley points out the injury on Ellie’s arm. Ellie realizes she's been bit and Riley reveals the bite on her own hand. Riley tries to console Ellie and they both decide to wait it out. Though they chose to wait and die together, Riley is the only one of the two that succumbs to the fungal infection; Ellie survives and discovers that she’s immune.

Although immune, Ellie still carries a mutated form of the infection inside of her. She is taken under Marlene's wing at the sight of this miracle. They later plan to head for Salt Lake City in order to reverse-engineer a cure for the infection. Ellie shows no signs of being affected by the fungus, though her bite does have small fungi growing around the mark.

Three weeks later, Marlene and Ellie planned to leave Boston for Salt Lake City - Marlene is injured. Desperate to get Ellie out of the city, Marlene hires two well known and experienced smugglers, Joel and Tess, to escort Ellie before the military wipes out the Fireflies. The trio soon leave the zone, but are captured by a military patrol. After killing the soldiers, Joel and Tess find out that Ellie is infected. Ellie reveals that the Fireflies have their own research lab out West. Despite Joel’s disbelief, Tess believes Ellie. Ellie’s child-like wonder reminds Joel of his deceased daughter, Sarah. They reach the rendezvous point, but they only find corpses as the military closes in. Revealing that she has been infected, Tess sacrifices herself and buys Ellie and Joel time. Ellie and Joel overhear Tess being gunned down by the military, and see her corpse whilst escaping. The two later reach a town where Joel believes they can meet Bill, a mechanic who owes Joel a favor and can provide them with a car. Ellie reveals during their journey to and through Lincoln that she has never been in the woods until that day nor has she seen real fireflies. Once there, Bill is irritated by their presence. After a brief argument, Bill agrees to put together a car for the two, but tells them he owes Joel no more favors once it’s done. Bill gets them a truck and Joel and Ellie drive to Pittsburgh. Ellie spends her time reading the Savage Starlight article she stole from Bill before falling asleep. When she wakes up, she finds Joel already drove them to Pittsburgh. They are ambushed and though they crash, they escape thanks to Joel killing some of the attackers. The two bond as Joel answers Ellie's questions about life before the disease. Regarding a poster they see, Joel reveals he saw the dumb teen movie right before the outbreak. Ellie asks why but he dodges the question, not wanting to tell her he had a daughter. Ellie is separated from Joel when they climb an elevator shaft and it gives way, sending him falling to the bottom. Joel tells her to stay but she worries. Ellie goes down to find Joel. She does, appearing at the last second to save Joel from being drowned by a hunter; shooting the man dead. Joel tells her off for disobeying him, which frustrates Ellie. Joel grabs a hunting rifle from the side, seeing a group of hunters. To Ellie’s surprise, Joel lets her help, giving her the rifle. Despite admitting she has only ever shot at rats, Joel trusts her to cover him. He also thanks her for saving him, warming up to her. Ellie warms back, pleased Joel is bonding with her. After killing the hunters, Joel lets Ellie carry a pistol for emergencies.

By Fall 2033, Joel and Ellie arrive in Jackson County, Wyoming, where Joel believes his brother Tommy, a former member of the Fireflies, can lead them to the fireflies. The two find Tommy living in a community and during their stay, Ellie learns from Maria (Tommy’s wife) of Sarah, Joel's daughter who died at the start of the outbreak. She also sensed that Joel planned to leave her with Tommy, leading to the two having a heated argument where it became obvious to both of them how much they have bonded and cared for each other during their travels. Joel eventually changes his mind and sticks with Ellie. With Tommy's direction, Joel and Ellie reach a university. However, the Fireflies are nowhere to be found. Instead, the two fight a large group of both infected and cannibals. During it, Joel is impaled in the abdomen, leaving the fighting to Ellie. She dresses his wound and eventually gets them both to the Lakeside Resort. There, Ellie hides Joel in a house to take care of him while also going outside to hunt for food.

In winter, Ellie leaves the house and comes across a deer, killing it before being confronted by two men, David and James. David offers to exchange supplies for meat from the deer. Ellie demanded antibiotics in return and James leaves to get them. David reveals that it was his men who attacked Joel and Ellie at the university. David lets Ellie leave with the antibiotics but has his men track her down. While trying to flee on foot, David finds Ellie and knocks her out. Ellie wakes up in a cell and David pleads with Ellie that he has her best interests in mind. He then affectionately touches Ellie's hand (he’s implied to be a hebephile). Realizing his intentions, she breaks his finger, to which he threatens her life. The next day, David and James pin Ellie down onto the table attempting to slaughter her for food. Just before David strikes her, she exclaims she is infected and states that David is infected too because she bit him. Upon finding out she’s infected, James becomes frightened but David doesn’t believe it. James weakens his grip on her hand and she takes this chance to grab a knife and stabs James in the throat, killing him. Ellie escapes from the room as David and the cannibals chase her. David eventually finds her at a decayed restaurant. During their struggle, he knocks over a lantern, lighting the building on fire. As the fire spreads, Ellie stabs David with her switchblade. The two struggle but end up passing out. David is the first to regain consciousness, attempting to strangle and sexually assault Ellie but she manages to slash his arm and violently hack at his head. Joel suddenly arrives and pulls her away, embracing and consoling her as she breaks down in tears.

The spring arrives as Joel and Ellie, now 15, reach Salt Lake City. Ellie is still shaken by the events from Winter, remaining quiet. While encountering multiple infected in an abandoned tunnel, Joel is trapped in a submerged bus. She tries to help but nearly drowns. While Joel is performing CPR, Fireflies arrive, knocking him out. Ellie is resuscitated and taken to be studied by doctors on Marlene's order. When Joel awakens in the Fireflies' hospital, Marlene tells him Ellie's immunity can be reverse-engineered to create a vaccine to the lethal fungus, but the mutated Cordyceps must be extracted from her brain via surgery, which would kill her. Joel is immediately opposed but she explains that it has to be done to save humanity. While being escorted, Joel kills the guard and makes his way to the operating room where the surgery on Ellie is about to begin. He rescues her, killing Doctor Jerry Anderson in the process. After killing the remaining Fireflies, Joel is confronted by Marlene, who begs him to reconsider. She suggests many terrible scenarios that could happen to Ellie if he takes her back out into the world. Still, he’s unwilling to give Ellie up and shoots Marlene, killing her. Ellie awakens inside Joel's car on the way out of Salt Lake City, unaware of what happened. Joel lies to her claiming there were dozens of other immune people, and that the fireflies were unable to form a cure. Upon reaching Tommy’s settlement, Ellie tells Joel about Riley. She asks Joel to swear that everything he said about the Fireflies is true. Joel swears.

In the weeks after their arrival, Ellie and Joel settle into Jackson. Ellie chemically removes her bite mark on her arm, scarring her forearm but concealing her immunity. One evening Joel visits Ellie's home, bringing a guitar. He asks Ellie if she would like to hear something, to which she agrees. Joel sings ‘Future Days’ by Pearl Jam for her and when he finishes the song, he holds out the guitar to her, saying it is hers and reminding her that he promised to teach her.

Ellie lives in Jackson for the next 4 years, befriending Dina. Ellie and Dina's grow closer, along with Jesse, Dina’s on and off boyfriend. Ellie’s ex-girlfriend, Cat, gives her a tattoo of a moth with leaves on her right forearm. On Ellie’s 16th birthday, Joel takes Ellie on a 3 day journey to an abandoned science museum in Wyoming. She practices her guitar and Joel encourages her, insisting she’ll get better once she develops calluses. A year later Ellie goes on patrol with Tommy. She’s lost in thought wondering how Joel would react to her dating a girl. Later, it’s revealed Ellie doesn’t believe Joel’s story about what happened in the Firefly hospital, leading to an argument. Soon after, Ellie returns on her own to St Mary's Hospital in Salt Lake City. She finds a tape recording left behind that stated Ellie was the only one immune. Joel arrives and rushes to Ellie, hugging her while chiding her for sneaking out. She pushes him away and demands the truth, threatening to leave him forever if he lies again. He reveals the surgeons were willing to kill her to make a vaccine, so he stopped them. The news devastates her and, although she agrees to ride back to Jackson, she declares she will sever her ties with him for good.

Two years after the discovery, Ellie goes to a party. Jesse approaches Ellie at the bar. The two watch as Dina, Jesse's ex-girlfriend, dances. Finished dancing, Dina approaches, dragging Ellie to the dance floor. While dancing, Dina tells Ellie that everyone watching them dance is jealous of her. Ellie says that she's just a girl to which Dina kisses her passionately. Seth approaches them and berates them for kissing. As Ellie and Dina walked away, Seth made a homophobic remark, calling Dina a loud mouthed dyke, which infuriated Ellie. Joel intervened, shoving Seth and ordering him to get out. However, Ellie was upset at Joel and rejected his help, much to his dejection. That night, Ellie went to Joel's house, finding him playing his guitar and drinking coffee on his porch. Ellie warns Joel not to get in her way, saying she doesn't need his help. Wishing to change topic, Joel asks if Dina is Ellie's girlfriend. Ellie denies it and lashes out, shouting at Joel that he robbed her life of meaning by preventing her death to secure a vaccine. Joel says even if God gave him a chance to change what happened, he wouldn't. Ellie says she may never forgive him for what he did, but that she wants to try. Joel says he would like that. Ellie leaves as Joel cries.
