"I am Quill Onkko Primary. We have, and shall have a long association, Tenno."
—Onkko, talking to the Operator for the first time

Onkko (full epithet Quill Onkko Primary) is a former OstronSigil Ostron historian and archivist once responsible for lorekeeping, and the current representative of TheQuillsSigil The Quills on the Plains of Eidolon and in Cetus.

Onkko is the primary point of contact with The Quills, who provides players with various services relating to Operator Amps, Magus Arcanes and Virtous Arcanes, including the construction of Amps and the trade of Sentient Cores for Quills Standing. He also provides the player with various tips and warnings when fighting the Eidolons.


Lore & History[]

General[]

With the official title of Cetus Archivist, Onkko was the Ostron's lorekeeper. He would along the Quills, researching and translating the various myths, legends and stories surrounding the Plains of Eidolon, the Ostron people, and the mysterious being known as the Unum.

Onkko is the narrator behind the lore for the Thousand-Year Fish and the Glass Shard fragments.

Gara's Discovery[]

Main article: Saya's Vigil

In the past, Onkko was the close friend of Konzu, and husband to Saya. Together with Saya, they used their knowledge to bring technological prosperity to Cetus. However, despite their love for each other, Onkko's duty to the village strained his relationship with Saya, as he would often miss multiple of their anniversaries.

One of Onkko's notable studies was his discovery of the remains of the warframe GaraIcon272 Gara; The Glass Warrior who felled a massive Sentient in defense of the Unum. Onkko would obsess over her ancient secrets, but he and Konzu were sworn to secrecy by the Quills.

Disappearance[]

During an excursion out on the Plains with Konzu, Onkko mysteriously disappeared, leaving his wife behind to mourn his loss.

Five years later, Konzu is informed by the Quills that the Grineer has found traces of Onkko in the Plains, and tasks the TennoIcon Tenno with recovering said traces. They find Onkko's coffer, sealed with a Shatter-Lock of his own design. To open it, they must find the various fragments of the glass key. The IconGrineerOn Grineer, with knowledge gained from interrogating one of the Quills, believes them to be the key to unlocking Gara's power, power that can defeat the Sentients.

At the end of the quest, it is revealed that Onnko, in an attempt to protect Gara remains, hid the harmonic signal of her blueprint within his Shatter-Lock key.

Reemergence[]

It is later revealed that Onkko did not disappear, but instead had joined the order of the Quills. By some unknown means, Onkko had divined that Saya would meet an unwelcome fate had he stayed with her, and thus orchestrated his disappearance so that Saya would be safe, taken care of by Konzu. Onkko now spends his days as the Quill's representative, helping both the Ostrons and the Tenno even as he keeps his identity hidden from the people of Cetus.
