Ellie Rose's Backstory Explained (A Henry Stickmin Collection Theory)

Ever since Fleeing the Complex, fans of the Stickmin series have been wondering, "What is Ellie Rose's backstory? How did she end up at The Wall!?"
Using the very few hints we are given, both in that game and Completing the Mission, I attempt to craft a possible backstory for one of the best characters in the series!
Follow Dungeonation for Crashing the Casino ► / dungeonation
Visit Attacking the Tower's GameJolt page for updates ► gamejolt.com/games/attackingt...
PuffballsUnited has remained adamant that he will not make any more Henry or Henry-like DLC or other Henry Stickmin Collection expansions. So instead, I wanted to take a stab at answering this question with my own theory.

I am not sure how AtS would work. Since ItA and FtC are the most important and the endings you got all comes back with CtM. While AtS would be unimportant. What if she became the leader? That would be completely unimportant because she would meet Henry and leave all of her bonds with her organization. That would just be a case of bad story-telling because an important part of the story is just completly ignored.

[@sneavile9912]

Sven Svenson (the Toppat Leader in all of the GSPI endings) says that there are multiple divisions in the Toppat Clan, and Henry only met the Airship Division, so Ellie could have met one of the other divisions before going to The Wall.

Puffballs actually talked about how their was a scrapped side story for Ellie in the collection in which you would play as her in the top hat clan to see how she ended up in the wall. It was scrapped due to the fact it would mean the game would take another year and it was hard to incorporate into completing the mission.

While I do really enjoy romantic subplots at times in games and media, I'm almost glad that they didn't try and force anything between them last minute. This is why I love this series so much.

[@NotMyRealName6]

For an Ellie spinoff that isn't backstory, I typically picture a version of her in the Special BROvert Ops path. Henry never betrayed her and ends up in his best possible place that doesn't involve working with her, so it basically frees up possibilities for what she'd be up to.

[@bluehax6]

Now you've got me thinking. There is another character, one who can seemingly pull impossible things out of thin air one, and is capable of preforming a combination attack with Henry. The one, the only, the Right Hand Man. "But all his stuff is just because he's a cyborg!" I hear you protest. I will let the Right Hand Man himself answer this one: "You fool! Did you really think my Spirit was a result of my augmentations?" Yes, you could say most of the stuff he pulled when he was a cyborg were tied to his augmentations, but the same could be said for Henry when _he_ was turned into a cyborg, couldn't it?

[@gamedifficulty_4230]

He also manages to pull a verity of items out of nowhere when you fight him in ItA. They’re admittedly still mostly things he would likely be in possession of, but if still doesn’t explain how he suddenly gets a minigun or summons a mirror. You could argue that it’s Henry’s choices that influence the abilities of those around him, such as how both the fusion dance and earthbend lead to him fighting someone with similar skills, but at the same time those characters still have explanations of their abilities in their bios, which RHM doesn’t. It’s also interesting that while Henry fights several opponents in the style of other games, (Mr Macbeth with Undertale, Night guards Tim and Joe with Pokemon, the Advanced Wars/Fire Emblem section of FtC etc.), these characters always use the weapons that they were seen to have before hand, whereas RHM doesn’t

perhaps Jacob Rose is like Dave Panpa, having a minor role in almost every scenario Ellie appears in. This is pretty unlikely though. A more plausible theory is that there's someone out there with the last name Stickmin that isn't Henry, who appears at some point in Ellie's life and never again.

[@keliiiiie]

As a Henry Stickmin fan, I actually have my own backstory: So, Ellie had a family, but something was torn apart with her parents, and her dad was a criminal, while her mom was just a housewife. She found out that Ellie’s dad was a criminal, she divorced him, and at this time, she were probably in her teens or mid-adults. So, Ellie found out, and then she started to have irregular opinions about him, whether or not he was good or not, then she started to go to college, then she dropped out to live with her mom after her dad moved out of the house, but after an argument with her mom she decided to be a criminal, then thats where her story is parallel to Henry’s now. Then, after the Infiltration of the Airship, the 4th episode which will be Ellie’s, is now sent to the Wall and that’s how she met up with Henry. This might be not an exact opinion, but I talked about her and her family and how she turned into a criminal. Edit: Jacob is not related to Ellie as of 1/8/20 in one of PuffBall’s live stream’s, so I’m editing the comment

[@Mega_idk]

Her synchronicity with Henry is really what opens up the character to me. I have never seen this level of sync in my entire life, considering that they've only met for 2 games, Henry's caveat which is not speaking much, and yet they pull off fusions, combos, and other sh¡t. Some people keep saying that she's just female henry but I digress: She is her own character that simply works so well with Henry.

That's kinda strange indeed :) Also, I don't want to be rude or something, but if you want more Henry Stickmin content, I know a cool channel. The channel is called "Brothers Theory Productions" and they make theories about various games. They already did 5 theories about Henry Stcikmin on the channel (It's their most popular topic). Feel free to check the channel out and their theories ;)

The only path we see him is triple threat, which follows convict allies, meaning he escapee during the same outbreak that Henry and ellie escaped on, it's literally mentioned in the end of the bio

I still remember playing the first flash game of puffballs of "blowing up bank" where i first time saw the options and had a lot of fun. Never in a million years i thought there will be a full on dedicated series and an actual last game that wraps up everything that has led up to that point. Also, i still remember replaying "fleeing the complex" and every single other game puffballs had, like a madman. Until i got bored and was busy with life and forgot all about them. But hey, they released the game and slapped me in the face with nostalgia and here i am after a full "completing the mission" henry stickmin collection game, and i am proud they actually stuck with it and even improved it.

[@heyheyitsjae2475]

A small detail I really like is that in Infiltrating the Airship Henry can metalbend and in Fleeing the Complex he can earthbend, and in a similar fashion Ellie uses the force in both Fleeing the Complex and Completing the Mission

[@thenthefuture]

Speaking of the force, maybe we could have a Jedi battle between Henry and Ellie.

I don’t know, I’m trying to have a theory about what is Jacob Rose’s significance. Maybe, meanwhile Ellie stole the emerald, Henry stole the diamond and Jacob knew that his sister (or his cousin) was a thief, and was on the museum, waiting for her so he could stop her, but he didn’t knew what she was going to steal. He assumed she’ll steal the diamond but she didn’t. Henry did. (I’ll add more to this theory soon)

Would like to know more about it!

[@scrltflm5715]

Puff said in a stream that Jacob and ellie aren't related

[@yuthesalmonshaman6655]

I'd like to imagine, that while Henry was stealing the diamond, and was in the same area as Jacob Rose, Ellie was stealing her own thing, while in the same area as a female with the last name Stickmin, just to have things match in their lives even more.

[@thecringeeascreator977]

One thing I would like to hear is what causes Henry to become the way that he is during the game. Like what causes him to want to steal from the bank that starts the whole series? Like what makes him have to steal instead of getting a job?

[@synrdk]

Maybe he didn’t want to work all those hours and he just wanted some quick cash

The one single thing surprising me most in this video was you mentioning Orson Scott Card's Ender's Game/Ender's Shadow Book Series. For those who do not know it but do not fear the svereral hundred of pages, this great story disguised as a space story is essentially a drama about Child Soldiers, human morale and values, politics and decisions, and at the same time an amazing example on how to tell the same story twice but achieving two similar, but very different stories.
