Reggie Harbaugh (Rise)

Reggie Harbaugh was a survivor of the outbreak in Rise, and is a main character in the first and second seasons of the series. Working as a warehouse employee for Foxwood Shipping at the start of the outbreak, Reggie's personal life before the apocalypse is mostly unknown. At the beginning of the outbreak, he decides to stay back at the Foxwood Shipping building as most of the workers are going home, which is when he and his group of Jack O'Rourke, Shauna King, and Tyler Dallmer are greeted by Jalen Tormo, a company executive, who had been scratched by a monster whilst departing from New York. After Jalen goes off to take a nap, Reggie hears Jalen possibly struggling to breath before Jack accompanies him to check on Jalen, who is found dead, having succumbed to the infection. Once Jalen reanimates, Reggie kills him with the help of Jack before he and the rest of the group begin looking to fortify the building. After Jack and Shauna go out looking for Shauna's brother Devon, Reggie and Tyler are attacked by the Man. Reggie is then locked in the trunk of The Man's car before freeing himself and shooting the Man with an arrow as he holds Tyler over the edge of the roof. Once The Man is incapacitated, Reggie and Tyler greet Jessica Callis, John Callis, Emilio Vasquez, Troy Austin, and Katie Dawson as they bring in Jack and Shauna. Reggie and his group then hold the Man prisoner before Charlotte Walters arrives and collects the Man before beginning to leave. Reggie and the rest of the group evacuate the building before Charlotte orders her soldiers to blow it up at the end of the first season. Reggie dies in the war at Sheol, shot by rebel forces and dying in the field of action.
