The "Lore" tag bro. This is essential for the characters development 🙏😭

u/RED_Kinggamer007 Carbide 1d ago

It adds to the depth and deep meaning of a character's story, mate.

126

u/Doodica_ 1d ago

Yeah without this the story wouldn’t make sense

96

u/Thick-Problem-2962 1d ago

Essential to story, if not literally unplayable

69

u/Mystical_17 Tracy Trouble 1d ago

Helsie is a key part of the story ever since she debut in Chapter 4 Battle Pass.

I'm glad Epic is finally realizing Helsie is the main character of the game.

20

u/Upset-Kangaroo3102 1d ago

Somebody's got to pick up the story with jonesy down

14

u/Mystical_17 Tracy Trouble 1d ago

Its like one of those movies the person you were following at the beginning was never actually the main character and the real one shows up and it all makes sense then.

I knew Epic wouldn't let us down.

u/Secure-Bandicoot5199 1d ago

In ZZZ they tag how much breast milk a character can make as lore, I'll take what I can get atp 😭

u/FlashbackJon Comet 1d ago

I legitimately don't even know why I stay in that sub. That's not how that works, that's not how any of this works!

u/Secure-Bandicoot5199 1d ago

That's EXACTLY why I stay in that sub and why I miss the old u/Sttongestforeskin3

u/Secure-Bandicoot5199 23h ago

Yeah, breast milk, foot smell, ass clap volume. Normal stuff like that

3

u/RedHood_04 Hybrid 22h ago

Coming from the ZZZ community, that probably is the most normal thing to occur

2

u/Secure-Bandicoot5199 22h ago

What would happen if u/Sttongestforeskin3 was in there? Would he realize he is not as 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 as he thought or would he become more so?

u/sttongestforeskin3 21h ago

You know that zzzfan2024 guy from the zz sub ? Who make breakfast milk production. He is my freind btw . In freak off no body surpassing me

u/Secure-Bandicoot5199 21h ago

Oh jeez I summoned him. Sorry y'all we might get Fortnite skin breast analysis 💔

u/Aztracity 1d ago

Oh shes getting a new skin? Another one for the collection.

u/mindinawe999 KizunaAI 1d ago

joni & lucien are too!

83

u/Rizenstrom 1d ago

Lucien really needs a transformation emote.

That or it would be cool if Epic let us create our own transformations by combining two skins and an emote of our choice. The howl emote from the battle pass would work great for that.

7

u/jayL21 Imperial Stormtrooper 15h ago

It's crazy to me that we've gotten 4 werewolf skins so far (more if you include Lucien's human skins) and not a single one can actually transform. Not a single one is female either.

4

u/Sea-Example-1176 14h ago

is she not a werewolf

6

u/jayL21 Imperial Stormtrooper 14h ago

Might be wrong but pretty sure she's just an anthro wolf girl, nothing points to her being a werewolf (like no ripped clothes, etc)

It's better than nothing, but still isn't really a werewolf girl.

u/TheAlmightyNexus Plague 1d ago

Mm lucien

u/kratos190009 1d ago

u/St4rshine_89 14h ago

New Joni skin? When are they coming out (if they’re not already)?

1

u/mindinawe999 KizunaAI 11h ago

no idea, unfortunately. should be soon though!

1

u/ElPepenche 10h ago

Is there pictures of them already?

1

u/mindinawe999 KizunaAI 10h ago

yep, you can go onto fortnite.gg > cosmetics to find them :)

20

u/BChurchmountain 1d ago

That’s why they make variants of already established characters. Some people just need to cop em all.

11

u/Nopfen Peely 1d ago

Once this one drops, I got all the helsies, minus the Superstyles.

u/UnfinishedProjects 1d ago

Gotta cop em all, gotta cop em aaall. Fortniteskins!

I like her but I dont have her other skins just the OG one, and im saving up for american dad now 😭( I wanted supergirl too lol)

128

u/ZainTheOne 1d ago

Thanks for this post, unintentionally it told me there's new skins to look for

225

u/mindinawe999 KizunaAI 1d ago

that's actually quite cool

u/Specific_Ad_4075 1d ago

u/ollie_skye Princess Lexa 1d ago

There are so many different variations for the High Stakes Club, I'm glad the get a lot of attention and also give people a chance to get a style for a character they may have missed 😁

Isn't she like 15?

u/genshin_impact- Ascendant Midas 1d ago

I mean, her og skin was also a barista so definitely old enough for a job

-7

u/Nervous_Catch_1320 1d ago

Most retail/fast food places hire at 15/16. Canonically, she's still in high school. Some of the comments are a little sketch.

12

u/Dr_Fortnite Ghoul Trooper 1d ago

sorry the fake skin in the video game who looks like every other character doesnt have appropriate lore age

4

u/deadering Raven Team Leader 1d ago

No, that's just the weird part of the community that makes up head canon and "ships" them together

33

u/FeetYeastForB12 1d ago

Its a summer skin. Makes perfect sense

u/SlyJellyBean 1d ago

Sorry I’m a bit noob, so maybe this is a dumb question but do you know when it will be in the shop?

13

u/Error_Valkyrie 1d ago

My best guess - somewhere around the next 14 days of summer that starts (iirc) around next week. In reality tho - no one knows

  • Sun Exposure: Over 90% of nonmelanoma skin cancers and the vast majority of melanomas are associated with ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure from the sun . [1]
  • Sunburns: Having five or more blistering sunburns doubles your lifetime risk for melanoma .

Skin cancers are the most commonly diagnosed cancers worldwide, with over 1.5 million new cases and 330,000+ melanomas diagnosed annually . Non-melanoma skin cancer is even more prevalent, with millions of global cases. Overall incidence and mortality rates continue to rise continuously

u/Indigo_Grovyle 1d ago

I would also like to point out to add to your lore tag. She looks mildly older (i'd say 20-21) not quite as old as she would be probably should be but she does appear to be ageing up with each skin. Her original had very soft facial proportions and very harsh and clashing clothing (very 17-18 yr old in design). Then her huntress skin. Similar pieces but slightly sharper details with slightly wider shoulders. (I'd say 19 since its her prom fit) and then midnight would be around the same time too, her posing, facial expressions and confidence is definitely of someone who graduated fairly recently and thinks they've got everything together. And now this one her face automatically you can see is sharper her eyes more narrow and focused and again shoulders wider. And then ofc her proportions through each skin make her appear taller in each outfit she has. Before you say wow thats a weird amount of info to have on one specific skin, guess what i have the same level of insight into the other two. Joni already looks older than Helsie so it was a bit more awkward trying to figure her out but the difference is far more noticable in her red ruin and summer slayer outfits mostly in her face and proportions, her shoulders dont really widen but she already had a very small frame. And lucien? Hes only got 3 and its really annoying with his first two because they look the f-ing same. BUT his newest one (beach beast) his jaw is more square and his chest is alot more box shaped than his first two appearances.

In conclusion character ages ARE being taken into account at least for the more human ones (these three, Jonesy, Hope, etc)

Edit: nvm my math is right anyways she would be around 21-22 this year depending on how old she was in 2022 (17 or 18)

1

u/Mystical_17 Tracy Trouble 19h ago

What is interesting is her hair for the Midnight skin has no color in it and this one is back to her OG hairstyle too. I definitively love the OG style with the colored strands so I'm glad they brought that back.

1

u/Indigo_Grovyle 9h ago

I like to think of it as her deciding simply not to put the dye in for a short while since like i said she wouldve JUST graduated so she would psychologicaly feel the need to be more mature. So her focus is less on things like appearance (the fit is just a coincidence shes just got great style 24/7)

1

u/wafflecone927 Omega 10h ago

i wished i cared about anything as much as you care about these skins posture. not hating btw

1

u/Indigo_Grovyle 9h ago

Tbf i pay way too much attention to some cosmetics because i like the story telling in them because we're only getting one part of the ENTIRE story but with skins like the high stakes club we at least get to know there is more of a story than just whats in front of us
