Who is the Origin in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1?

Fortnite is more than five years old, and since its inception, it has knitted its lore tightly, allowing the community to come together as the stories of a season unfold. Chapter 3 is executing the lore with precision, and new questions are being asked about the future of the island.

Agent Jonesy is a central character in the Fortnite lore, and the community believes that there is a lot more to this character that is still a mystery. New speculation has emerged that believes that Agent Jonesy is the actual identity of the Origin in Fortnite.

With the return of the Imagined Order in Chapter 3, more revelations are foreseen as the Seven are expected to clash once again with Dr. Slone's minions. During this clash over dominance on the island, the Origin's story might get the foundation that the community has long waited for.

Agent Jonesy might be The Origin in Fortnite Chapter 3

For the longest time, there have been rumors about Agent Jonesy's involvement with the Seven. After the Chapter 3 launch, where the Seven came to the rescue of Jonesy, fans started a new discussion that stated Jonesy might be the founder of the Seven.

For those unaware, the Origin is the founder of the Seven, and the character's identity is still unknown. Epic Games released a survey for the character's looks, and according to the most popular one, it ties the Origin with the Kymera aliens of the Last Reality.

The discussion went live on Reddit, where the theory of Jonesy being the Origin was first initiated. However, the original post was removed by the officials of the subreddit.

Based on the theory, Jonesy is himself not aware of his identity, but in the future, he gets to travel to the past, and there he creates the Seven, thereby starting the chain of events as loopers know in the present.

Agent Jonesy also mentioned Genō once during the Zero Crisis Finale, and since then, the community has wondered about the character's identity. There is a theory that suggests that Genō is the other name for the Origin, as Genō stands for Gen 0 or Generation Zero, which is the 'origin.'

Since there is no official footing into these theories, it is hard to believe either one of them. However, all of these rumors seem to knit quite perfectly with the current lore. Loopers will have to wait to find out the reality of the Origin in Fortnite.
