Everything to know about Felicia from Arcane season 2
Felicia's story arc is introduced in episode 5 from Arcane season 2 Act 2 titled Blisters and Bedrock. In the episode, Jinx, Vi, and Isha go in search of the monster Warwick, who they believe is resurrected from the corpse of their long-lost father figure, Vander.
They pass through the underground tunnel network and encounter Vander's beast form, Warwick. He attacks the trio, and Vi calls out to him by shouting "Vander!" in hopes of awakening her father residing within the monster. In response, Vander has a flashback to the past when he worked as a bartender at the Last Drop bar in Zaun and hung out with his friends, Silco and Felicia.
Felicia, who was pregnant with her first daughter at the time, tells Vander she has not selected a name for her first-born daughter yet. He suggests calling the girl Violet, which is Vi's real name. The three friends spend the rest of the evening talking about Zaun's state of affairs over drinks.
Felicia encourages the two men to fight for the city's independence so that her children can grow up in a safe environment. Later, it is revealed that Felicia and her husband, Connol, (Jinx and Vi's father) died while fighting in a battle against Piltover. In the wake of their death, Vander raises the young girls as a surrogate father, as seen in Arcane season 1.
After recollecting the fond memories, Vander is seen embracing his daughters, Vi and Jinx, as well as Isha.
