Jinx is a character in Riot Games' League of Legends media franchise. The character was introduced as a playable champion in the October 2013 update for the 2009 video game of the same name, which was complemented by the animated music video "Get Jinxed" to commemorate her official debut. In the game's fictional universe, Jinx is a manic and impulsive criminal from Zaun who serves as the archenemy of the Piltover enforcer Vi. The Netflix animated series Arcane explores the character's origin story as Powder, Vi's younger sister who, following a series of personal tragedies, is taken in and raised by the crime lord Silco. Ella Purnell voices the character in Arcane.
Jinx has become one of the franchise's most popular and iconic characters since her introduction. Her portrayal in Arcane and Purnell's vocal performance garnered critical acclaim.
