** [[Characters/ArcaneSilco Silco]] is a ruthless, complex crime lord and revolutionary, hellbent on securing the future of Zaun no matter the cost. Betrayed and scarred by his old partner Vander long ago when Silco's attempted uprising against Piltover grew violent, Silco bided his time for years as he secured himself a position in Zaun's criminal underworld, mass producing the drug Shimmer and swaying the chembarons under his banner. Ascending to further power as the unofficial leader of Zaun after he eliminates Vander, Silco keeps the ambitious chembarons under his thumb, earns the loyalty of his right-hand Sevika, and sows unrest through Piltover. Having adopted young Powder and molded her into [[Characters/ArcaneJinx Jinx]] as his surrogate daughter, Silco keeps the unhinged girl under his control despite her growing psychosis, and even when he has all bargaining power to cow Piltover to his demands, Silco gives it all up to secure Jinx's safety, maintaining his love for her as his child [[spoiler:even when she unintentionally kills him]]. Charismatic, dangerously savvy, and possessing [[HiddenDepths far more humanity and vulnerability than expected]], Silco was defined by his love for Zaun and Jinx, [[WellIntentionedExtremist determined to ensure empowerment of them both no matter the cost]].

* MoralEventHorizon: **Jinx crosses it when she [[spoiler:kidnaps Vi and Caitlyn, and twistedly asks Vi to pick between killing Caitlyn or losing Powder as a sister. Vi isn't willing to go through with murdering her new friend, and then through mishaps Jinx accidentally kills Silco who tells her that she is perfect the way she is, cementing her as being Jinx for good. She tops off the ending by firing a rocket at the Piltover Council. Despite Vi trying to reach out to her in parts 2 and 3, the way she looks at Jinx in the end of Act 3 shows she concedes that Ekko and Caitlyn were right and Jinx is far too gone.]]
