Sloane Hargreeves is a member of the Sparrow Academy, a team of super-powered children adopted by Sir Reginald Hargreeves in an alternate timeline. She is introduced in the third season of the television adaptation of The Umbrella Academy.

Lore & Background

In the third season, it is revealed that in an alternate timeline, Sir Reginald Hargreeves chose to adopt a different set of children in 1989, dubbing them The Sparrow Academy. Sloane is one of these children, designated as a member of this new team. In this timeline, the Umbrella Academy never formed; the Sparrows were the team that existed instead. The Umbrellas arrived from their original timeline and encountered the Sparrows already established.

Sloane falls in love with Luther Hargreeves, the former Number One of the Umbrella Academy. After they have spent time together at the Hotel Obsidian, Luther proposes to Sloane and she accepts. The Kugelblitz, created after the Umbrellas arrived in the present, expands, swallowing a majority of the world and forcing the Umbrellas and remaining Sparrows to take shelter at the Hotel Obsidian. While there, Luther and Sloane take the opportunity to get married in the time they have left and hold a lavish 'wedding at the end of the world.'

When Reginald proposes the idea to go into Hotel Obsidian for one final mission, Luther and Sloane refuse, citing their desire to spend their last moments together. Reginald then threatens Sloane and dismisses their marriage, prompting Luther to physically attack Reginald. In retaliation, Reginald kills Luther. After the world is reset by Reginald using the Oblivion machine, Luther returns to life but finds that Sloane is missing.
