TADC viewers beware.. You're in for a scare..
OF TADC EP9 SPOILERS
[This will included discussion about the ending of TADC, so begone if you do not want to get spoiled.]
.
This is mostly just speculation as we don't know who is going to be the playable characters in game, but the Fortnite leak got me very interested in a lore perspective for TADC.
If Fortnite added Jax into Fortnite, then that technically means that Fortnite MIGHT canonically saved Jax's life from Abstraction.. But with SOME issues.
In Fortnite Lore and in the Batman Comics, The islanders are trapped on the island with a strange time loop every 22 minutes.
In the Loop, you become a shadow of your former self, memories wiped clean, the ability to speak has been disabled unless you're a master of sign language and just the general nerfing of strong abilities. Especially towards characters like Superman, Kratos and even Godzilla who was shrunken down and modified their body to be more humanoid. (One Punch Man's Saitama is in the game, but it's actually a hologram and not the real deal.)
However, with Batman's case and meeting Catwoman, if you meet someone who came from your world, deja vu kicks in and have some sort of strong feelings go into overdrive as you try to connect with them.
When you're the last person standing, you have all the memories of the previous loops but not the instance when you were dragged into it. And unless you're fucking Bruce Wayne and infiltrated a bunch of multiverse soldiers trying to monitor and keep you on the island, the only way to properly LEAVE the island is by using the Zero Point and finding the coordinates to come back to your world without disintegrating into multiple pieces via recklessly jumping in and be restored of your memories and powers. This strange blue orb you can enter and dive in to.
In Chapter 7 onwards in Reality 266, there doesn't seem to be a mention of the negative side effects of the Loop or at least implied there isn't any (I'm not really sure myself), but from a gameplay perspective, everyone sort of acts the same as they did back in Reality 0 where the original Loop took place but the aftermath still applies.
Once you leave the loop, you leave a alternate copy version of yourself, "Snapshots" as they call it. They are straight up perfect copies of you, abilities, design, personality and so forth but has a chance to evolve beyond that and be their own character, such as the case with John Fortnite: Jonesy and the lore reason why everyone runs around as the same exact character.
For Jax specifically [Maybe Pomni or Ragatha as well] either via Caine's adventures or a Zero Point rift opens and drags the two of them, The Loop might be a weirdly best outcome for Jax and have the absolute time of their life in the Loop in Reality 266 without a care in the world.
They can have a moment to keep the mask on and not take things seriously, they can fight and bully whoever they please, though might have some strong reactions to frog specific characters and might mistake them for Ribbit or whoever gets to fill the Female Skin slot alongside them.
Then again, if Jax wins and leaves the Loop, another Jax could appear and be in one of the many outfits they was given [Praying for Maid edit style] and over swarm the island with an army of Jax if they so please.
Probably not the ending Jax fans were hoping for, but it would be nice to know that THEIR Jax [if they gets in] is alive and well in a infamous battle royale game dealing with a LOT of problems. And I mean..
A LOT of problems.
God bless the people still playing this game. :(
