Ellie Williams is one of the main characters in The Last of Us. She's a 14-year-old girl living in a world wrecked by a brain infection called Cordyceps but Ellie is immune to this infection. Marlene, the leader of a group called the Fireflies, asks Joel Miller to help smuggle Ellie out of Boston so they can try to make a vaccine.

Ellie was born in 2009 to Anna and when Ellie's mom, Anna, was having her, she got bitten by an infected woman. After killing the infected woman, Anna gave birth to Ellie. Even though Ellie got exposed to a bit of the Cordyceps infection, she didn't show any signs of sickness. Anna quickly cut the umbilical cord, saving Ellie from a deadly dose.

Later on, Marlene, who was a friend of Anna, found them. Anna asked Marlene to take care of Ellie. Sadly, Marlene had to shoot Anna in the head. Then, she brought Ellie to a safe place in the Boston quarantine zone.
