List of The Walking Dead characters
The following is the list of characters from The Walking Dead.
Main group[edit]
Rick Grimes[edit]
A police officer who was hit by a car, slipped into a coma, and woke up in a zombie apocalypse. Throughout the series, he has constant mental breakdowns, and cannot even say his own son's name correctly 90% of the time. Rick Grimes is also one of, if not, the greatest Badass to ever appear on televison. When not being a badass, Rick is either crying or sleeping.
Lori Grimes[edit]
Rick's useless wife. She slept with Rick's best friend while he was still in a coma. Aside from being a terrible wife, she was also a terrible mother who never looked after her own son. She died when Carl, doing what his father would have wanted, but never had the balls to do on his own, shot her in the face after he and Maggie were compromised in the prison's boiler room, during a zombie attack, with no viable means of escape. A bitch to the end, her dying words to Carl were simply "I still don't know whose baby this is." After the attack, when Carl told his father what had happened, now furious as ever at Lori for saying such a thing, Rick stormed into the boiler room in an attempt to cut his now-dead wife limb-from-limb. Killing two dozen zombies in his plight. Upon arriving, however, he discovered her body missing and, later, having taken the form of a ghost inside of an old telephone. Periodic hauntings would occur over the next half of the season by Lori, driving Rick to the point of insanity. He absolved himself of her in the penultimate episode by taking in the entire Woodbury community and devoting himself to "becoming a better father."
Carl Grimes[edit]
Rick's equally useless son who refuses to listen to people when they tell him to stay in the fucking house. Which is exactly what caused his death in Season 8. As an adolescent, he goes through puberty and slowly transforms into a woman throughout the show — as evidenced by his long hair. He even forms a lesbian relationship with a girl who has a penchance for eating turtles.
Daryl Dixon[edit]
A known fan-favourite. He is the best character on the show. Daryl always is getting the bitches. Fun fact: he is too cool to have sex. (Season 11 spoiler: he dies a virgin)
Glenn Rhee[edit]
The token Asian who, somehow, gets the hot farm girl. He is quite a clever, but slippery little bastard. He spends most of his time either being bait for zombies, fucking the hot piece of ass that is Maggie, or cry-wanking over the prospect of her being raped by other men.
Carol Peletier[edit]
The firestarter. A known sociopath who stabs people in their sleep and burns people if they show any signs of illness. Without her husband's guidance, Carol was successfully able to indirectly or directly kill any child she grew close too by making them look at the flowers. She enjoys flirting with Daryl, and blowing up cannibal death camps. Her comic book iteration was hot and wanted a three-way. AMC really missed a trick there... bunch of cunts.
Hershel Greene[edit]
Dale's replacement as the wise old man after Dale's actor quit. Hershel is a known vet that has a supply of infinite ammo in his shotgun. Before he lost his head, he used his peg leg in combat. Like Dale, he fucking dies horribly.
Maggie Greene[edit]
AKA hot farm girl, and Hershel's daughter. She is the Mary Sue of the group and fucker of Glenn. She soon develops amnesia after the assault of the Prison and forgets she has a sister. Upon learning that her sister was kidnapped in the nearby area, she ignores this and goes to D.C., and continues to fuck Glenn. She gets pregnant after the token Asian used up all remaining condoms in the apocalypse.
Beth Greene[edit]
Hershel's secondary Maggie. Once the token farm girl in the background of discussions, Beth soon becomes the singing farm girl in the background of discussions. Beth is useless to the group, but stays as the token caregiver of Rick's Shane's baby. She later becomes the daughter/girlfriend of Daryl after her real father's execution, but soon gets kidnapped. She stays as a prostitute in a hospital. In a last minute character development ploy by the writers, she suddenly discovers she has weaponry skills and knowledge of medicine in trying to save the Firestarter's life.
Michonne[edit]
A mute survivor suffering from PTSD. She has the unfortunate experience of spending 8 months with Andrea. When realising Woodbury is fucked up, she decides not to tell Andrea and leaves her to figure it out for herself (which she knows won't be until she's about to die). Michonne returns to Woodbury as her friend Andrea holds her at gunpoint but decides not to tell her about Woodbury or her group. Knowing Andrea is probably dead, she returns to Woodbury to watch her satisfyingly blow her brains out with a gun after being bitten. Off camera, Michonne smiles for the first time ever. Seasons later, Michonne becomes Rick's second wife and the mother to his third child because, why not?
Abraham Ford[edit]
Red head soldier guy with cool handlebar moustache. Was about to blow his brains in so he could be with his family, but after being lied to, made it his life goal to get to Washington D.C. like he was Frodo. Luckily, a couple seasons later, his wish of getting his brain smashed to bits and someone sucking on his nuts was fulfilled (although we had to wait an entire year to see it).
Eugene Porter[edit]
A fat man with a mullet. Eugene bullshits his way to safety. None of the survivors question that he is not a scientist who has the knowledge to save the world which he obviously doesn't.
Rosita Espinosa[edit]
The token Hispanic character who replaces Maggie as the hot chick of the show.
Aaron[edit]
Token gay guy that gets a cool metal arm that is used to jack off his dead boyfriend.
Tara[edit]
The token lesbian who somehow feels guilty about doing nothing. She is the only character on the show not suffering from melodramatic soap-depression.
Siddiq[edit]
Token Muslim. He's basically just a random guy Carl met on the road after being unable to stay in the fucking house. Since Carl saved him, he suddenly becomes an important character in the next season.
Antagonists[edit]
Shane Walsh[edit]
Rick's best friend and the only useful person in the zombie apocalypse. After fucking his best friend's wife, he became an emotional bitch and started to developed feelings for Lori and her illegitimate son. This would later cause him to get stabbed by Rick and shot in the face by Carl.
The Governor[edit]
Is apparently a dangerous man, but he usually does fuck all other than talk stupid and look at fish tanks with terrible looking models of severed heads. He also likes to get stabbed in his eye. He soon becomes the main protagonist, killing threats and villains such as Andrea, Hershel and Merle.
Negan[edit]
The reason why you can breathe, blink and piss your pants. Named his awesome barbed wire baseball bat after his dead wife, played golf and got a birdie by using Carl's empty eye socket as a hole, and cooked spaghetti for Judith and Carl cause he's just that nice of a fucking bloke. Also, he swears a lot.
Alpha[edit]
Alpha is the leader of the group known as The Whisperers; a group that skins walkers and wears the skin over their own skin — skinception?
Beta[edit]
A famous country singer who is now a murderous, Zombie flesh wearing beta male.
The Commonwealth[edit]
A large community of about 50,000 survivors led by the daughter of the President from before the Zombies came. The Commonwealth Army are basically low-budget Stormtroopers led by an orange rip-off of Darth Vader.
Civic Republic Military[edit]
The Civic Republic, whose miltary goes by the initals CRM, are the group who 'rescued' Rick during Season 9, and later gave him a lift off an island in Season 11. They also show up in Fear the Walking Dead, as well as being the main location for The Walking Dead: World Beyond — but nobody watched it cause it was boring.
Scott M. Gimple[edit]
The showrunner who took over the show after they fired the show's second showrunner, Glenn "Rhee" Mazzara. It is debated among fans whether he is an actual character or not. But if there's anything most fans will agree on, it is the argument that he is the worst villain of The Walking Dead. Unlike the show's traditional villains like outlaws, bandits, cannibals, and disabled people, Gimple possesses supernatural abilities to make survivors talk as vague as possible and in incomplete sentences, teleport zombies away from the characters so that they can have time to mope in the apocalypse, generate a fake CGI deer which doesn't fool anyone except Rick Grimes, and teleport zombies back to the survivors so it infects one of them, leaving the remaining survivors to have another reason to mope in the apocalypse.
Other people[edit]
Ed Peletier[edit]
Ed is the moral compass of the Atlanta camp. Many characters on the show often ask for his advice and he shares his wisdom. In his spare time, he enjoys "playtime" with his daughter Sophia, and discipling his wife Carol.
Sophia Peletier[edit]
Ed's girlfriend and daughter. Sophia has no sense of direction and dies.
Dale Horvath[edit]
An annoying old man, who may or may not have sexual feelings for Andrea. He disagrees with the killing of a young man and gets torn apart by the zombies who are tired of his shit later.
Andrea[edit]
The most emotional bitch on the whole show. She wanted to blow herself up in the Season 1 finale due to the loss of her sister, but was guilted to stop by Dale. For the rest of her life, she was the crabbiest bitch on the show which lead to her being left behind by the group. Therefore, she was eaten at the end of Season 3. People often mention that she looks like the lesbian cop out of the quite poor, but not too poor film version of Silent Hill. She doesn't take too kindly to this, and shoots humans by 'mistake' that make the comparison. This is attributed to her being a stupid useless woman. She shags the current Bad Guy without realising what a stupid dumb bitch mistake she is continuously making.
T-Dog[edit]
The once token black until being replaced and killed by another guy who was also replaced and killed. T-Dog is a character who was supposed to die in the first season, but was kept alive to avoid the writers being called "racist". T-Dog had no real role in Season 2, but he managed to gain popularity somehow. In Season 3, he died and no one really remembered him — because they were too busy being sad about Lori's over-dramatic death.
Tyreese[edit]
The first main black character on the show of any relevance. Tyreese suffers from emotional fragility, constantly refusing to resort to violence or kill a cannibal that is about to murder a fucking baby (Shane's baby, not Rick's). He continues to whine and annoy until his death.
Sasha[edit]
The first female black character to speak like a human being. Sasha is Tyreese's sister. Unlike her stupid brother or anyone in the group, Sasha is the only person in the entire series to recognise that the supposed safe haven, Terminus, is fucking bad news. The writers will later forget Sasha shows any sign of intelligence when she is fooled by her hostage — a police officer with the same name as her boyfriend.
Bob Stookey[edit]
A single leg amputee who enjoys laughing at cannibals who eat him as he is bitten. As any character who shows any sort of happiness, Bob is an optimist, who also fucking dies due to being TAINTED MEAT!
