Chapter 1 Island, also known under the code-name Athena (which is also the code-name for the Fortnite: Battle Royale mode) is the Island used in Chapter 1 (Pre-Season - Season X), Chapter 4: Season OG, and Fortnite OG. It had about 13 variations throughout Chapter 1. It was reorganized to create Apollo and Artemis, which were subsequently reforged with parts of other realities to create Asteria.

Athena became playable again during Chapter 4: Season OG, but the island was slightly altered.

Athena became playable once again in Fortnite OG, a game-mode introduced during Chapter 6: Season 1. The island is also slightly altered, similarly to Chapter 4: Season OG.

Storyline[]

Athena is the name of the Fortnite: Battle Royale map that was used in the entirety of Chapter 1. It was held together by the Zero Point, a powerful orb of energy that was used to maintain the island. Many forces had sought to destroy The Zero Point which, if successful, would result in the destruction the island. This included Kevin the Cube, The Devourer, and more. The Zero Point was contained in a structure called The Vault, which was directly underneath a location called Loot Lake. The Vault also contained several items which had previously been removed. During The Unvaulting, players managed to access The Vault and could choose a single weapon to “unvault”.

While The Unvaulting was taking place, a character known as The Prisoner took the opportunity to strike the island with a volcanic eruption. This eruption destroyed two locations (Retail Row & Tilted Towers) and awakened The Devourer from its slumber beneath Polar Peak.

As The Devourer was now on the loose, the Imagined Order was forced to leave The Vault and take over Pressure Plant. From there, they created the Mecha, which was to be used to defend the island from the Devourer. After weeks of preparation, Singularity’s Mecha was ready. In the event known as The Final Showdown, The Mecha and the Devourer fought. Eventually, the Mecha had won, but in the aftermath of the battle, the Zero Point was fully exposed.

After the Zero Point's explosion caused a pause in time which also brought along a paused Meteor in the sky, the character known as The Scientist built Rift Zones and The Rocket to re-contain The Zero Point along with 6 other rockets, causing a Black Hole which sucked up all of Athena.

In Chapter 4: Season OG, Jones using the Time Machine travels back to an alternative 2018's Athena with multiple altered season events. During The Big Bang, the Rocket (with an attached time machine with it) played out the events of The End, which ultimately led to the Island suffering the same fate.

Athena lasted a total of 761 (790 if counted Chapter 4: Season OG) days before The Zero Point reorganized it into the new islands (Apollo & Artemis) during The End.

In Chapter 6: Season 1, Athena returned completely intact in Fortnite OG. The events would play out mostly the same with some slight changes (e.g. Cube being red then turning back purple out of nowhere) and small "alterations" to the map.

Trivia[]

Athena is named after the Greek goddess of the same name; She is the goddess of wisdom, war, weaving, and crafts and is also the favourite daughter of Zeus.
Most of the buildings on Athena was taken from Save the World.
Four locations from this map returned in the Chapter 2 map, Apollo, they are: Pleasant Park, Retail Row, Risky Reels and Salty Springs.
- There are also many locations on Apollo similar to locations from Athena. These include Lazy Lake (Loot Lake & Tilted Towers), Frenzy Farm (Fatal Fields), Misty Meadows (Happy Hamlet), Compact Cars (Junk Junction), Weeping Woods (Wailing Woods), Believer Beach (Paradise Palms) and Slurpy Swamp (Moisty Mire).
Five locations returned on the Chapter 3 map, Artemis. These were Greasy Grove, Shifty Shafts, Loot Lake (as a landmark), Tilted Towers, and Sunny Steps (as a landmark).
It is currently unknown if there was another island on the other side of Athena, like Apollo and Artemis, which would have been destroyed during the end event.
- There likely isn't, as in Greek mythology, Apollo and Artemis are twins, while Athena doesn't have a twin.
On the Chapter 2 map (Apollo), the central island's outline is a scaled down version of Athena.
Athena is the first island to ever have returned twice after being removed.
