Killian

What is the lore behind Killian in Fortnite?

Killian was released during Chapter 5 Season 1, a season that saw the two warring factions, The Underground and The Society, battling it out for control of the Island. While Killian did not have a direct role to play in this conflict, it is fair to assume that the character was out on the Battle Royale map doing Valeria and The Society's bidding.

The character's allegiances can be deduced by a Society pin on his collar, confirming that the character was a part of The Society and maybe even had a role in the abduction of Peely, the event that kicked off the Chapter 5 Season 1 storyline. However, this has never been confirmed by Epic Games, and since the Society is all but gone, Killian is unlikely to receive any further lore down the line.
