Timeline[]

Season 9[]

To defeat The Devourer, the Imagined Order was planning to build a doomsday device, but Paradigm volunteered to build a mech and pilot it instead. She piloted the Mecha in The Final Showdown, defeated The Devourer by using The Zero Point's energy and destabilize it in the process. She flew the moon and stayed there, nearly dying from the cold.

Chapter 3: Season 1[]

The Scientist makes contact with who seems to be Paradigm believing that without her, they won't be strong enough to fight against The Imagined Order. She was deemed untrustful by The Seven, and The Scientist updates her about her reputation on the Island, as she's still considered the public enemy #1. After the audio logs, The Scientist tells The Looper to plant space rocks to help Paradigm find her way to Sanctuary, believing she might be on her course back to the Island. After not convincing The Foundation about her reputation, he convinces him that the signals were from The Paradigm's suit AI.^[1]

Chapter 3: Season 2[]

Although she has earned The Scientist's and The Imagined's trust, others did not approve her return: The Origin, as well as The Foundation, despise her. As for The Visitor, he is staying out of the infighting. The Imagined sets up a communication relay with the Paradigm, letting her help indirectly. The Paradigm manages to send schematics for the Anvil Rocket Launcher, and later in the season warns the Seven about energy readings from The Collider.

Fortnite X Marvel: Zero War[]

In the search for the Mecha Team Leader on The Ice Moon, The Foundation finds Paradigm inside, still alive and kept in stasis inside her suit. The Paragdim explains to the foundation that the IO would have left the monster to destroy the island if she chose not to pilot the mecha. They begin rebuilding the mech but they require the zero point shard to power it up. Spider-Man escapes a powered up Doctor Doom and delivers the shard to The Paradigm. She pilots the mech to The Ice King and saves Jones, Wolverine, Shuri and The Imagined. She then uses the shard to open a portal back to the island proclaiming 'The Zero War is about to end'.

Collision / Fortnite X Marvel: Zero War #5[]

Later into the season, the Origin admits that they need the Paradigm's help, needing her to pilot the mech once again. The Scientist builds her a new suit to pilot the Mecha alongisde the Mecha Strike Team. They land on The Island and make their way towards The Collider, destroying IO forces. They are ambushed by many IO Airships and the Mecha takes heavy damage. Peely arrives driving a Truck and heal the Mecha with a Slurp Tanker. The Mecha pulls out its Light Blade and destroys the Airships. It prepares to strike down The Collider, but the computer detects seismic charges that cause them to fall into a sinkhole. The Weapons Team are ejected but Paradigm stays inside to repair the Mecha. After getting it to work, Paradigm crushes Doctor Slone's Titan Tank. She carries the Mecha Weapons Team to the surface as the Collider is destroyed into pieces.

Chapter 3: Season 3[]

With the war against the Imagined Order won, she is welcomed back into The Seven's good graces. She is currently reconnecting with her fellow Seven members while rediscovering her passion for building tech.

Chapter 3: Season 4[]

Paradigm was located in The Scientist's underground biolab with The Origin and The Scientist, watching the Chrome consume them. She escaped the building and flew into the Zero Point after evading a Chrome Tornado, only for The Herald to watch her enter. She records encrypted audio logs that can be heard through Reality Tree Paradoxes. Agent Jones, AMIE and The Looper decipher the audio and hear The Paradigm warning them about The Nothing.

Near the end of chapter 3; She reveals that That Reality Zero and the island is going to be destroyed. She ask AMIE and The looper to find The Scientist vital notes on The Zero Point (more importantly about Zero Fusion) and ask Jones about the IO loop breaker project. After getting the data; she tells them to be ready for the destruction to come.

Fracture[]

After the destruction of both Artemis and Apollo; She instructs AMIE and the surviving Loopers to collect Zero Fragments from the surviving chunks of The Island which The Zero Point is trying to grab. After The Zero Point is restored she bids farewell to AMIE and The Looper knowing the consequences of Zero Fusion, by initiating it to create a new Island, she sacrifices herself^[2].

Chapter 4: Season 1[]

Before disappearing, when The Island was still forming, she recorded a message that she threw between the colliding landmass intended for AMIE and The Looper, concerning the Kinetic Ore. The message tell them to bring the container of Refined Kinetic Ore to the quarry. The Oathbound retrieves the box later on.

Chapter 4: Season 4[]

The Autumn Queen reveal that what was holding Asteria together was not The Zero Point (which was already petrified and unusable), but a "life force", and warn us that it was fading ^[3], prompting Nolan Chance^[4] to do his move quickly and saying that the future was in the hand of Jones^[5]. This reveals some of the risks of Zero Fusion process that Paradigm talked about during Fracture^[6], as Asteria resulting from this process turns out to have a very short life. This life force, not coming from the Zero Point^[7][8], is possibly linked to the sacrifice of the person triggering the Zero Fusion process, and could explain the very short life of the reality thus created. However this life force can also come from an unspecified source of power as well.

  • This theory was disproved by Donald Mustard and the writers of the Zero War Comics on August 22nd 2022.
• The Paradigm was first mentioned in Chapter 3: Season 1 by The Scientist. This was the first time she entered the story as the Paradigm.
