Finn Collins was a major character in the first and second seasons. He was portrayed by starring cast member Thomas McDonell and debuted in the series premiere. Finn was a tracker for the 100. He was killed in "Spacewalker".
Finn was part of the original 100, arrested for an illegal spacewalk that cost the Ark 2 months worth of oxygen. He was covering for his girlfriend Raven Reyes who was 18 at the time and would have been floated for the crime.
While on Earth, Finn was stabbed and hurt multiple times, he killed multiple Grounders and cared deeply for his friends. Finn had a brief relationship with Clarke Griffin and after they spend the night together he was reunited with his girlfriend Raven. Finn was deeply apologetic, stating to Clarke that he thought he would never see Raven again. Despite this, the two end up staying friends afterwards.
Finn became a contributor to the Bellamy's Militia while struggling with his feelings for Raven and Clarke. He also watched out for the others like Octavia Blake and Jasper Jordan. Finn also advocated for peace with the Grounders.
Finn was born on the Ark. He was childhood friends with Raven Reyes, giving her his food when she needed it, and when they were older they began dating. For her eighteenth birthday, he found a way for her to have a spacewalk. However, they did not follow proper procedure, resulting in the Ark losing 2 months worth of oxygen. Since Raven was 18, she...
Finn is introduced as a reckless, 'bad boy;' always on the verge for a blast of adrenaline and always looking for danger. He is protective of Clarke and the decisions she makes, always sticking by her side and helping her out whenever she needs help. Finn is always running, looking for fun and adventure; he is playful and amusing. Later in the series, he seems to become more peaceful, trying to avoid killing people and to form a peace treaty with the Grounders.
In Season Two, Finn starts to walk the line between what is right and wrong. After losing his people and Clarke, he begins to feel desperate and afraid, exhibiting signs of mental duress. These feelings erupt when he executes the one-eyed grounder who drew them a map to Lincoln's village, which he takes hostage thinking that his friends were being held there. During the hostage situation, Finn's mental state deteriorates even further, to the point he can no longer tell for himself that what he's doing isn't necessary and that it will make relations with the Grounders even more uneasy. This instability culminates after Murphy convinces Finn to walk away when the captive villagers try to escape prematurely. Finn, still convinced they're his enemies, relentlessly shoots down the ones who run (totaling to 18). However, Finn shows much remorse for what he has done and later turns himself into the Grounders to be executed, so that his friends can be safe and the Sky People can have peace.
Finn was a physically fit young man with long brown hair that reached just above his chin. In "His Sister's Keeper" Raven gives him a haircut to shorten the length about an inch. His eyes were dark brown, and he had light skin.
Clarke Griffin
"Clarke, I love you. I'm in love with you." - Finn to Clarke. Finn and Clarke were good friends and had romantic feelings for each other. In Pilot, Finn flirts with Clarke throughout the trip to Mount Weather. In "Earth Skills", the two search for evidence of Jasper's whereabouts. After finding him, they return him to camp. In "Earth Kills", Finn, Clarke, and Wells look for medicine to help Jasper out but are forced to flee when the poisonous fog rolls in. They take cover in a buried vehicle and bond about having fun. Later on, Finn tells Clarke that Wells loves her and that she should forgive him. In "Murphy's Law", Clarke and Finn are tasked with protecting Wells' murderer, Charlotte, and take cover in a buried bunker. After watching Charlotte commit suicide, Finn and Clarke return to the buried bunker and have sex. In "Twilight's Last Gleaming", the two sit under the stars and look up, seeing Raven's pod, which they believe to be a shooting star. When Finn finds Raven at the pod's wreck, he shows affection towards his girlfriend from the Ark and that upsets Clarke. Finn apologizes to Clarke for this. In "Contents Under Pressure", Clarke helps Finn out with his high fever. She removes the knife and later uses an antidote made by Lincoln to cure him. Clarke hugs Finn when he awakens. Throughout the rest of the season, Finn seems to have more feelings for Clarke than he does for Raven. He holds her hand during the meeting with the Grounders in "Unity Day", and catches her when she falls in "I Am Become Death", knowing that she has an illness that can be fatal and is highly contagious. Raven breaks up with him because she believes he loves Clarke more than he loves her, and later on in "'We Are Grounders (Part 1)"' Finn explains that he is in love with Clarke, however, she rejects him because he broke her heart. Separated from Clarke and the rest of his friends who made it to the dropship at the beginning of season 2, Finn takes extreme measures to find her. Enraged when he finds a Grounder with her father's watch, Finn shoots him in the head after receiving all the information he can get on Clarke's whereabouts. His drive to reunite with Clarke forces him to consider leaving Mel, a stranded Ark survivor, behind on the cliff. In an agreement with the rest, Finn travels with Murphy to a nearby village where he discovers some clothes taken from some of the others. Gunning down many of the Grounders, including Octavia's friend Artigas, after mistakenly assuming that they had captured Clarke, Finn's massacre comes to an abrupt end when Clarke, Bellamy, and Octavia follow the sounds of his gunshots into the village. The aftermath of Finn's actions create distance between him and Clarke, the latter being forced to acknowledge how much Finn has changed since their last encounter. While Finn maintains that he had done this for her, he begins to feel the gravity of what he has done and the blood he has spilled. Lexa, during negotiations for a truce between the Ark and them, demands that Finn be handed over to the Grounders and executed. Clarke and the others vow to protect and defend him, not wanting him to be tortured before inevitably killed, but Finn gives himself up before any more harm comes to his friends. Finn is strung up to a pole, and Clarke pleads one last time for his life in "Spacewalker". Clarke offers her life for his, arguing that he killed for her safety and is soaked in more Grounder blood than he is, but the plea is turned down. Seeing that there is no way out of this for Finn, Clarke requests one last goodbye with him. The two kiss and Clarke tells him that she loves him. Clarke whispers to him that he'll be okay and not to be scared, before Finn mumbles a "thank you, Princess" in response. His body goes limp in Clarke's arms and it is not until Clarke pulls away that it is revealed she had used the knife Raven gave her to kill Lexa to instead mercy-kill Finn. Finn's death shakes Clarke, and he appears as a grief-induced hallucination several times over the course of "Remember Me". It is his death and Lexa's advice that pushes Clarke to detach herself from her friends emotionally convinced that love is weakness. With this realization, Clarke says her final goodbyes to Finn and his hallucination walks out of sight. Abby approaches Clarke about spreading his ashes, but Clarke refuses the offer, stating that she already said goodbye.
Wells Jaha
"Kid's only got one leg. How about you wait till it's a fair fight?" - Finn to Murphy and Mbege as they attack Wells. Finn and Wells had a stable relationship. In "Pilot", Murphy and Mbege attempt to fight Wells, but Finn interjects. He knocks them both down, saving Wells. In "Earth Skills", Finn, Clarke, and Wells work together to find Jasper, as he has been taken by the Grounders. In "Earth Kills", Finn, Clarke, and Wells look for medicine for Jasper after finding him and get caught by the poisonous fog. The three flee into a buried vehicle and when Finn finds whiskey, Wells says alcohol is toxic. Finn brushes it off with a sarcastic comment. Later that day, Finn tells Clarke to forgive Wells and says that Wells is a good person. In "Murphy's Law", Finn seems slightly upset by Wells' death.
John Murphy
In the beginning Finn and Murphy don't have much in common personality-wise, as seen in "Pilot" when Finn knocks him down after he and Mbege attack Wells. After that, they do not interact much until "Murphy's Law". While Murphy is being beaten, Finn watches in shock and tries to help him when the other kids attempt to have him hanged. After watching Charlotte commit suicide, Finn witnesses Murphy's banishment from camp and seems sympathetic. He leaves a knife for Murphy to survive with, as opposed to nothing at all.
