The Player (Fortnite)

## Summary

**The Player** is the unnamed protagonist of the 2017 third-person shooter video game *Fortnite* (Save the World/Battle Royale) developed by Epic Games.

In Save the World, 98% of Earth's human population suddenly disappeared and the remaining humans found the skies covered in dense clouds, creating chaotic storms that dropped husks: humanoid zombie-like creatures that attacked the living. The survivors found ways to construct "storm shields", a field that cleared the storm clouds from immediately overhead and reduced the attacks from husks and used these to set up survivor bases across the globe. The player is a commander of one of these bases, charged with going out of the storm shield to find resources, survivors and other allies to help expand their storm shield and find a way to return Earth to its normal state.

In Battle Royale, the objective of the game is to be the last one standing (or be the last team standing) in a map of 100 other people, finding loot such as guns while avoiding the dangerous storm.
