Spoilers through Veronica Mars 2.01

Public Image - what you might already know IC
And let’s not forget Logan Echolls. His dad makes twenty million a picture. You probably own his action figure. Every school has an obligatory psychotic jackass. He’s ours. - Veronica Mars, "Pilot"

Logan Echolls is the son of Aaron Echolls, A-list movie star. Think Harrison Ford, Bruce Willis or even Tom Cruise. His mother, Lynn Echolls, was a famous actress in her own right, though she's not as popular as she used to be. (Think Demi Moore, pre-comeback) If you're from this dimension (or a similar one), you've probably heard of them.

You've probably also heard the rest of the story - Aaron's philandering, Lynn's suicide, Aaron's arrest for the murder of Lilly Kane - Logan's girlfriend, with whom Aaron was having an affair until she discovered the sex tapes he'd made of her and threatened to make them public.

Logan himself has been in the news a few times. Last year, the Bumfights he organized made the Smoking Gun website, but he and Aaron made an appearance at a local soup kitchen to apologize, and Aaron even donated half a million dollars to the Neptune Food Bank.

This spring he was found on the Coronado Bridge with a bloody knife in his hand and the dead body of Felix, a local biker, laying nearby. He was arrested for murder, but the case was dismissed, in part because Felix and five other bikers had jumped him on the bridge and beat the crap out of him, so even if he had killed Felix, it was in self-defense. Having high-priced lawyers arguing your case doesn't hurt.


More about Logan
Logan's an asshole with bullying tendencies, though he tends to pick on people he believes have wronged him somehow. He's used to being able to get away with almost anything by waving money or his family's name at people. He's arrogant and manipulative. He's also been abused by his psychotic father his entire life, and at this point he's been betrayed or abandoned by everyone he's ever cared about.

He's fiercely loyal and protective of those he cares about. He's dark, but not evil - there's a conscience in there, and he does use it. But he's also vengeful, self-destructive and borderline suicidal.

And he throws great parties. When zombies don't pre-empt them.
