With the sheer amount of crossover characters that have been added to Fortnite and with more pretty much guaranteed to come in the future (a recent survey may even give fans an idea of who will be added), it's sometimes easy to forget that the game has original characters for people to play as. In fact, a new one is about to enter the fray in April through the monthly Crew Pack and it's someone who has prior history with an already established character.
Announced via Epic Games' official website, April's Crew Pack includes Alli, who is described as the estranged sister of Lynx. As a reminder, Lynx was first added to Fortnite back in 2018 during Chapter 1 Season 7 and she also appears in the Save the World mode, where she dons a Black Panther-like ninja outfit. She was later recruited as a GHOST Agent in Chapter 2 Season 2.

Unlike her super spy sister, Alli appears to be a fashion model, with a new loading screen depicting her strutting down a catwalk. Much like Lynx, Alli's attire has a cat motif and, despite their estrangement, it seems there's no bad blood between the two sisters as Lynx can be seen in the loading screen enthusiastically cheering Alli on.
Aside from the new skin and loading screen, Crew members will receive the accompanying Squee Back Bling, Skellyfish Pickaxe, and Cat's Paw Wrap for weapons. As a reminder, Crew members will also get immediate access to the current season's Battle Pass and a monthly reward of 1000 V-Bucks. Anyone who has already bought the Battle Pass can still sign up for a Crew membership and will receive a refund of 950 V-Bucks.
Since April is about to start, this does mean players only have a week to get hold of March's exclusive content, which includes the Llambro skin. It's always possible that the skin will come back at a later date but Epic's FAQ states that skins included with Crew Packs will never be made available elsewhere, meaning a Crew subscription is the only way to ever obtain them.
Alli doesn't really fit with the wilderness theme of Season 6, but this only demonstrates that Crew Pack exclusive skins aren't dictated by the season's theme. This also means future crossovers can't be easily predicted; one of the new crossover skins for example is Raven from DC's Teen Titans, who comes with two variants that can be unlocked through the Battle Pass.
Fortnite is available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
