Sevika is one of the two secondary antagonists (alongside Marcus) of the first season of Arcane, which is set in the League of Legends universe, and will return in some capacity in the second season. She is Silco's top enforcer in his criminal empire, serving as the muscle for many of his operations. After getting caught in the same explosion that killed Mylo and Claggor, she lost her left arm and had it replaced by a shimmer-powered cybernetic. She is also Vi's arch-nemesis and has fought her on several occasions.
She is voiced by Amirah Vann.
Personality[]
As Silco's second-in-command, Sevika has a fearsome reputation in Zaun, keeping his other subordinates in line and even catching the attention of some of the chem-barons, such as Finn. As she runs a tight ship, Sevika doesn't tolerate weakness or failure, and sees Jinx as a liability to Silco's criminal empire, leading to a mutual dislike between the two. Despite this, Sevika is not completely unsympathetic to Jinx and offers words of encouragement to Silco upon her disappearance.
Biography[]
Early life[]
Not much is known about Sevika's childhood, but as a little girl, she had a somewhat rocky relationship with her father. As a resident of Zaun, she eventually became fed up with the oppression she had to suffer at the hands of Piltover's Enforcers and came to believe that the only way to get the Topsiders to back off was by uprising against them.
Arcane[]
Sevika is first seen as a customer in Vander's bar, where she questions his plans for peace with Piltover. Vander's speech fails to sway her, and she storms out along with several other patrons, much to Vander's dismay.
Sevika turns her loyalties to the criminal kingpin Silco, who, in an effort to start a violent uprising against Piltover, had created a substance known as Shimmer which would enhance the user. Silco kidnapped Vander, hoping to convince him to join, but when Vander refused, they had him locked up instead to lure Vander's children into a trap.
However, this plan would backfire when Vander's adopted daughter Powder used a bomb to destroy the entire complex, killing Mylo, Claggor, and Vander, and mutiliating Silco's henchmen Singed. Sevika was able to protect Silco from the blast, but lost her left arm in the process. Soon afterwards, Silco would adopt Powder as his daughter (renaming her "Jinx"), much to Sevika's dismay.
Years later, Sevika had worked her way up to being Silco's top enforcer, overseeing a multitude of operations within the criminal empire. She would also gain a shimmer-powered mechanical arm as a replacement. However, Sevika remained skeptical of Jinx's usefulness to their cause, and frequently told Silco that she was a liability. However, Silco dismissed these claims, leaving Sevika to clean up all of Jinx's messes.
After Vi returned to Zaun, she attacked Sevika and questioned her on Powder's whereabouts. After informing her that Powder now works for Silco and changed her name to Jinx, Sevika stabbed a shocked Vi and prepared to finish her off before Caitlyn shot Sevika's mechanical arm, causing Sevika to retreat. She then informed Silco of Vi's return, who gave chase. Sevika was later captured and interrogated by Jinx, who tied her up in Silco's office after learning that Silco was going after a couple of unknown girls. Sevika then revealed to Jinx that her sister was still alive, claiming she replaced her, and that soon she would implode.
Following Jinx's disappearance, Sevika accompanied Silco to a meeting with his fellow Chembarons, who had started questioning Silco's leadership, as he was clearly struggling to keep control of Jinx and his criminal empire, before he forced them back in line. However, a Chembaron named Finn privately urged Sevika to betray him. After a Shimmer production plant was destroyed by Vi and Jayce Talis, Baron Renni joined the insurrection, and the barons planned to have Silco assassinated. After a tense exchange, Sevika proved her loyalty to Silco by killing Finn, claiming she wasn't tempted for a worm like Finn.
Afterwards, Silco left the undercity for a parley with Jayce, leaving Sevika in charge in his absence. During this time, Vi entered the Last Drop in hopes of finding Silco, and once again battled Sevika. While Sevika initially got the upper hand on Vi, the fight ended in her defeat, with Vi ripping off her mechanical arm. Afterwards, Sevika awaited Silco's return, unaware of his death at the hands of Jinx.
