Pre-Crash: John Locke was not raised by his biological parents. He was sent from foster home to foster home and didn't know his biological mother and father until his mother found him and scammed him into thinking that he'd found his biological father on his own. His father, Anthony Cooper, befriended him, and then let it slip that he needed a kidney transplant. Locke was quick to offer his kidney, but after the operation, his father didn't want anything to do with him. Locke was obsessed with wanting to know why his father didn't want his friendship.
He met Helen and they began a relationship, but she wanted him to stop watching his father. He couldn't do this and Helen left him.
When Locke found out that his father was conning a family, he interceded and his father pushed him out of an eight story window. Locke survived, but was paralyzed from the waist down.
He began working for a box company. He wanted to do a Walkabout tour of the Australian Outback, but when he showed up in a wheelchair, the company said he couldn't go. They sent Locke home on Flight 815.
Island: After the crash, Locke gets sudden use of his legs. He believes that the island has healed him and that he must listen to the island and do what it asks.
At one point he sees something that he later describes as a beautiful white light (Ep: 1x4, Walkabout).
After he and Boone find a hatch in the ground, Locke believes it's his destiny to open it and he is so obsessed that he ends up getting Boone killed after he has Boone climb up a cliff and into a small plane.
Locke and a group get dynamite to blow the hatch open and they find Desmond inside. Locke's new purpose becomes punching in the code and hitting the execute button to reset the timer every 108 minutes.
He eventually resents having to push the button and comes to believe that it's just an experiment and that nothing will happen if they don't push the button. He locks Eko out and breaks the computer. When the timer reaches zero, the hatch implodes. Somehow, Locke and the others survive.
Locke then believes he must save Eko, but when Eko dies, he looks for another purpose.
Locke, along with Sayid, Kate, and Rousseau find The Flame Station. Locke plays a chess game on a computer and eventually beats it, which brings up some options. One of the options is to enter 77. After Locke comes out, the place blows up.
Locke finds Ben and finds out where the submarine is. He blows up (or possibly just makes it look like the sub blew up) the submarine so that no one can get off the island.
Locke hangs out with the Others and realizes that they have his father, Anthony Cooper. They want Locke to kill his father, but he can't and gets Sawyer to do it.
Strong Relationships: Eko, Claire, and Desmond (after their initial encounter)
Rocky Relationships: Jack and Locke have struggled for power and also struggle in the ideas of faith versus science. Locke is a big believer in faith. At first he takes on the role of Charlie's mentor and helps Charlie get off of heroin, but then their relationship changes when Locke starts hanging around Claire. He an Eko initially were friends and worked together, but that all changed with their opposite views on pressing the button.
