'''Snapshots''' are copies of people created by [[The Island]] of people who escaped [[The Loop]]<ref>"That's not Fishstick. It's one of the duplicate The Island makes of people in The Loop"-[[The Foundation]] during [[Fortnite X Marvel: Zero War Issue 1]]</ref>. Snapshots are '''identical copy''' of the original that has left The Loop.

==Overview==
'''Snapshots''', while being created by The Island, only happen in [[Reality Zero]]. This phenomenon is caused when someone manages to escape The Loop. It does this by creating a copy of this person which escaped the loop to stay inside of Reality Zero, or in other words, '''Snapshots'''. 

[[Bunker Jonesy]], one of [[Agent Jones|John Jones]]' snapshots, explains that he came on to the island after being told to jump into the Zero Point to see what would happen. Each Jonesy with an NPC Character descriptions all tell different reasons why each came inside The Loop too. For example, [[Grill Sergeant|Grill Sergeant]]'s Character description explains he came to the island to investigate the food wars that were happening. In the part 2 of the Spire quests, after talking with Bunker Jonesy, he mentions that once one is in the Loop, they are just a snapshot of who they were (he does not go into the details of whether the person they were before is out of the Loop or not, but its most likely that).

After Chapter 3, the creation of Snapshots likely stopped as The Loop is presumed to have not been recreated<ref>The Loop was never mentioned again and no evidence of its supposed existence was shown, as everything happens in a civilized setting, where people are free to speak (Snapshots Quests, Story Quests) and death is permanent ([[Chapter 5: Season 2 Story Quests]], Absolute Doom's Collection at [[Castle Doom]])</ref><ref>For her plan of creating a new Reality using the [[Fracture|Zero Fusion]], knowing full well that Reality Zero was going to be destroyed, The Paradigm needed the Seven's Loop Breaker project files. -[[Paradise Quests]] Part 2</ref> after the fall of the [[Imagined Order]] during [[Collision]]<ref>The Imagined Order was responsible for controlling The Storm (The Device, [[Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point Issue 1]]), mindwiping memories of Loopers ([[Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point Issue 3]]), creating supply drops, chests, ammo boxes and Loot Llama in [[The Bridge]] ([[Impostors]], [[The End (Chapter 2)]]) and put online or offline The Loop at will (Impostors mode task at Loop Control System: Loop offline)</ref> followed by the annihilation of [[Reality Zero]] itself during [[Fracture]]. However, a lot of snapshots created before are still active, like [[The Ageless]] a very ancient snapshot of [[Geno]] who was first introduced during [[Chapter 4: Season 1]].

==Trivia== 
*With [[Agent Jones]] being the source of all Joneses, other IO agents such as [[Maven]], [[Rook]], [[Special Forces (Outfit)|Special Forces]] and [[Newscaster]] could have been the original versions of their model characters.
*Snapshots serve the purpose of rationalizing why re-skins of original character skins have differing personalities and appearances (ex. [[Slurp Jonesy]] & [[Bunker Jonesy]].)
*This phenomenon should not be confused with that of [[Variants]], which consists of two almost identical people but coming from two different realities/universes.
**For example [[Lexa]] and [[Princess Lexa]] are [[Variants|variants]], not coming from the same reality: Lexa from the Reality: 982, a cel-shaded world where she works for Y-Labs and Princess Lexa from the same reality as [[Oathbound]], being the princess of this kingdom for a very long time.
