Sky Young was a minor character in Arcane. She was Viktor’s childhood acquaintance, and in later years was a research assistant to Viktor and Jayce while the pair worked at Piltover University. She would retain her position as their assistant after Jayce subsequently became a Councilor. Sky greatly admired Viktor, and was very shy and nervous around him.
Biography[]
Little is known of Sky's childhood or adult life. It can be assumed that at some point in her early childhood, she lived in the same area of Zaun as Viktor—she can be seen in a flashback to Viktor’s childhood, where she appears with a group of children playing in a stream.[1]
By Acts 2 and 3 of Season 1, Sky has become Jayce and Viktor’s assistant and can be seen helping Jayce prepare for his Progress Day speech in Episode Four. While walking past Viktor, Sky clutches her books closer to her chest and avoids Viktor's eye contact, smiling to herself.
Sky nervously asks him to walk home with her from the laboratory to further her relationship with Viktor. However, Viktor, obsessing over the Hexcore, remains oblivious to Sky's affection and shortly denies her request. Sky gently chides Viktor for overworking himself, reminding him:
There’s always tomorrow… right?—Sky Young
Well, not for Sky. Soon after this interaction, she decides to attempt talking to Viktor again. She can be heard confessing her admiration for Viktor in a practice speech while walking towards the door of their laboratory. Upon entering the room, she finds Viktor covered in carved runes, with his hand clasped to the glowing, sputtering Hexcore. In a desperate and instinctive act to save his life, Sky rushes over and clings to Viktor, attempting to pull him away from the Hexcore - and ends up being vaporized in the process.
Once Viktor regains consciousness, he finds little left of Sky besides a teal journal, a jacket, and her half-moon glasses. The Hexcore had used Sky’s life force to sustain Viktor.
Overcome with guilt, Viktor scatters her ashes over the stream they used to play in as children.
Thank you for keeping me company in my solitude, Miss Young. I will miss our talks. No, you won’t. —Viktor and Sky’s last interaction, as Sky disappears from the Hexcore.
Sky was reincarnated inside the Hexcore after her death, and during Season 2, she became Viktor’s assistant once again. Sky was mainly seen by his side supporting his many trials and tribulations while helping the Shimmer addicts, and while healing Vander.
After Jayce destroyed Viktor’s physical body, and Singed healed him with Warwick’s blood, Sky disappeared from the Hexcore.
Sky’s soul is most likely somewhere in the fabric of the universe, alongside Jayce and Viktor.
Characteristics[]
Personality[]
As we rarely saw Sky outside of Viktor's presence, it's difficult to gauge what her countenance might have been. However, while around Viktor, Sky was shy, quiet, and nervous. She had a slouched posture and a tendency to evade eye contact, suggesting a lack of confidence.
However, through her journal, we learn that Sky was also an incredibly kind, empathetic, and altruistic person. She was deeply inspired by Viktor's desire to help the people of his city, leading her to pursue a career that would ultimately allow her to help as many people as possible.
Appearance[]
Sky had light brown skin, eyes, and chestnut brown hair pulled back in a high ponytail. She had freckles across her cheeks and wore half-moon glasses. She wore the Academy colors of a white blazer, a red shirt, cropped navy trousers, and light grey and white shoes.
In her Astral Form, Sky’s hair turned white and she no longer wore her glasses, nor seemed to need them to see.
Abilities[]
- Astral Form: In Sky's astral form, she can travel through the Hexcore and help Viktor use his powers.
Trivia[]
- In her Astral Form, Sky does not wear her glasses.
