**Sebastian Milton** is an antagonist and a survivor of the outbreak in AMC's *The Walking Dead*. He is a resident of the Commonwealth and the son of Pamela Milton, the Governor of the community and older brother to Landon Milton.

## Overview

Sebastian conveys many of the same personal traits of a typical spoiled brat. He is self-absorbed, rude, quick to anger, arbitrary, judgmental, ungrateful, overconfident and self-righteous. He displays several sociopathic tendencies, including a seeming inability to empathize with anyone besides himself, an aggressive if not compulsive need to control and belittle others, impulsive and rash decision making, and lying for his own benefit.

Despite this, Sebastian shows some "strengths", albeit inadequate and second-rate ones. He is a somewhat capable fighter, showing little fear when faced with the undead despite his privileged status in the Commonwealth, and is stubborn enough to engage in combat with them without asking for others to help him.

He likes to speak his mind, which could get him in trouble. He hits on Athena Hawthorne even though he has a girlfriend. He slaps her ass which causes Athena to punch him in the face, enraging him. He tries to sue her because she rejected him but lost the case when his mother shuts it down.

Sebastian is shown to have no care for the lives of others. It is revealed that he has sent 30-40 people to their deaths just so they could get him money. When Mercer tells him about Alves and Castle's deaths, he gives little reaction.

It is implied that Sebastian is the way he is due to being spoiled and neglected his whole life. It appears his relationship with his mother is distant at best. When Sebastian says that his allowance has been cutoff, he refers to his mother as a "bitch." At one point, a drunken Sebastian reveals that he is trying to get ahold of mother but is getting no response.

## Pre-Apocalypse

### Location Unknown

Nothing is known about Sebastian's life prior to or as the outbreak began except that he came from a political dynasty family, similar to the Kennedy family and the Bush family with his grandfather serving as President of the United States at some point in time.

## Post-Apocalypse

### Ohio

At some point during the outbreak, Sebastian lived along with his mother and brother in the community in Ohio that she presumably founded.

### Season 11

#### "Promises Broken"

Sebastian is first seen with his girlfriend Kayla being escorted by Mercer through the area Eugene's group is clearing walkers. He comments on the 'putrid' smell of the area, looking at the workers.

Later, as Eugene and Stephanie are moving on to the next area to clear, they notice several walkers approaching a distracted Sebastian and Kayla. After the two defend the couple from the walkers, Sebastian yells at Eugene for 'ruining their date', causing the two to argue. When Stephanie accidentally splatters Kayla with blood while defending her from another walker, causing her to scream in horror, Sebastian becomes more aggravated with the two, provoking Eugene into punching him in the nose. The Mercers, Lance Hornsby, and a group of Commonwealth soldiers quickly arrive at the scene. Sebastian claims Eugene "attacked" them, and berates Mercer for being absent during the situation as the soldiers take Eugene into custody.

#### "New Haunts"

Sebastian is seen undertaking "advanced military training" alongside Mercer, with Daryl, Rosita, and Toni brought along by the Commonwealth Co-Generals to assist. The three soldiers-in-training are bothered when they find their weapons, many of which hold great sentimental value, have been brought along for Sebastian to use, without their permission. Michael explains that this is because Sebastian always receives the newest weapons for his training, due to his status as the Governor's son. As Sebastian examines and tests out the weaponry in various disrespectful and juvenile ways, including calling Judith's katana a "toothpick" and throwing it aside, he selects his equipment and orders them to let walkers out of a nearby container for him to kill.

Sebastian manages to take out the first walker with relative ease, but fails to properly drive a knife into the second one's skull, resulting in a struggle with the still-active target. Athena who had been hunting with Pamela notices and takes her dagger and throws it about 30 feet, landing it into the walkers head, much to Sebastian's anger. As she's heading over to grab her dagger he then complains to Michael and Myree, beginning to insult Athena, until he notices Pamela watching him disapprovingly. Athena claps back at him, which Pamela approves before moving on with her armed escort. Sebastian's smug façade fades, and he walks off to join his mother without another word.

Later, at the formal Halloween cocktail party back in the walls of the Commonwealth, Sebastian arrives as a guest of honor. As Daryl, Rosita, and Toni watch him silently from behind the velvet ropes leading into the event, Sebastian stops and sardonically fixes Daryl's collar, giving him what Rosita and Toni describes as a "hate smile."

As the festivities progress, the party is interrupted when Tyler Davis begins accosting Pamela's leadership, declaring that the Commonwealth elites do not actually care for the welfare of its citizens. Sebastian watches in silence as Tyler supports this claim by telling the room he tried endlessly to talk with Pamela one on one, only to be routinely ignored, and that he lost his job as a trooper and place of residence after making one "mistake": being overpowered and beaten by a prisoner. After Tyler manages to escape the party, Sebastian furiously orders Michael and Myree to go after him.

Later on, after Athena manages to find Tyler in the now-empty Halloween fair's haunted house, convince him not to kill himself, and apprehend him, Sebastian shows up, Sebastian walks in, impressed that a short girl caught him. Athena, however, hands Tyler over to Sebastian, and bitterly tells him that 'he' did it himself and that she'll fake date him for his mother's sake. The two go back to the party. Upon arrival, Sebastian is applauded for his apparent arrest of Tyler, and is congratulated by his mother. Sebastian watches as Tyler is taken away and declares that there are thousands like him who want fair and reasonable treatment amongst the Commonwealth's workforce.

#### "The Rotten Core"

Sebastian stops by the trooper station with Athena. Sebastian brags to troopers about fighting walkers and invites Daryl to comment on his abilities. Daryl half-heartedly claps, eliciting chuckles from troopers. Alves and Castle take Daryl, Rosita, Rosa, and Toni to the northern perimeter. Sebastian joins them and orders them to retrieve a stash of cash hidden in a house on the other side of the herd. He says he needs money because Pamela cut off his line of credit.

He can't send in Alves and Castle because the military tracks when rounds are fired. If the troopers use their guns, it will raise questions. When Daryl refuses and begins to leave, Sebastian threatens their kids. Daryl draws his knife and holds it to Sebastian's throat. Alves and Crowe pull their guns. Daryl warns Sebastian not to threaten the kids again, or he will cut him down. Sebastian states he never said anything about hurting the kids, but that he make them orphans if Daryl does not agree to his mission. Daryl, Rosita, Rosa, and Toni begrudgingly agree to help.

Daryl's group meets up with Alves and Castle and learns that Sebastian has already sent 30 or 40 people to look for the cash. Michael shoots Alves and Myree shoots Castle dead, then instructs Rosita, Daryl, Toni, and Rosa to give the cash to Sebastian or else he'll come after them, as they can't win a fight against him. They deliver the cash to Sebastian at the trooper station. Sebastian praises them for their effort and asks what happened to Alves and Castle. Rosa nonchalantly reveals that they didn't make it back alive. He brushes that off and gives a small cut of the cash to them and leaves.

#### "Acts of God"

After Pamela leaves, Max looks through files to find evidence to expose Sebastian. Just then Sebastian enters the room and appears to be drunk. He asks Max if Pamela is mad at him because he's been asking for her but is getting no response. Max tells Sebastian she can get word to her for him, to which he gets angry saying it's bullshit. Sebastian tells Max that she doesn't stop working and knocks down the files she is holding. Both of them grab hold of it and after a few seconds Sebastian let's go and leaves.

#### "Lockdown"

With Sebastian's crimes having been exposed, he goes into hiding as a massive crowd of protestors calls for Sebastian to be punished.

Negan, Ana, and Athena manage to locate Sebastian passed out in a hidden room of Union Station with plates of food nearby and several bottles of alcohol. Athena wakes up Sebastian who reaches for a gun before Negan steps on his hand and takes the gun from Sebastian. Sebastian demands to know if Negan knows who he is, but the former leader of the Saviors is unimpressed. Ana orders Sebastian to get up and that they're taking him home to his mother. However, Sebastian refuses to go anywhere until this thing blows over, believing that Pamela doesn't care anyways. Ana insists that Pamela does as Sebastian's her kid, but Sebastian believes that he's just a prop while the Commonwealth is Pamela's kid. Amused, Negan tells Sebastian that he should rethink his options and that Negan has seen Ana pull off seemingly impossible things before, *"so if for whatever reason she is throwing you a life raft, well then I'd recommend you jump in that sucker and save yourself from drowning."* After a moment, Sebastian asks if Ana really thinks that she can help.

Outside, Negan, Ana, and Athena lead Sebastian through the angry crowd, dressing him up in a hoodie to hide his face. However, one of the protestors recognizes Sebastian and yells to everyone else that Sebastian is there. As Negan intercepts the man, Ana and Athena hurries Sebastian away. As the protestors call for Sebastian's head, the Commonwealth Army disperses them with tear gas.

The next day, Ana and Athena leads Sebastian to his mother's office where Pamela hugs her son and then slaps him, telling Sebastian that he has humiliated both her and himself. Landon stands in the background slightly smirking. Sebastian angrily tells Ana that he shouldn't have come here, but Pamela pulls him back to face her and demands to know what he's had to do with all of this. Sebastian claims that the story is a lie and that people want someone to blame and he's an easy target. However, Pamela isn't buying her son's lies, telling him that she will need more than that to save him. Ana speaks up, telling Pamela that she thinks that they can help each other. Ana reveals that one of her good friends works for Lance Hornsby who is out hunting for her friends under the Commonwealth's flag and Ana needs Pamela's help to stop him. Pamela doesn't know anything about this and doesn't see how it helps her, but Ana states that if Sebastian didn't do the things that he's accused of, someone did, implying that they pin Sebastian's crimes on Lance.

#### "Variant"

Sebastian's corpse is strapped to a table in the Commonwealth morgue and, reaching for one of his blades, Michael and Myree suggests that they should put him down and Athena agrees. However, Pamela refuses, ordering that no one is to touch Sebastian until she says so. Addressing her son's corpse, Pamela tells Sebastian that she wasn't blind to what he was and, that despite what he thought, she was trying to help him, but she may have been too late. While they had their issues, family is a complicated thing. Michael and Athena share a glance worried. Pamela orders Michael to find and arrest Eugene, intending to put him on trial for Sebastian's murder and to have him stand as an example to all of the Commonwealth.

Left alone with Sebastian, Pamela cleans up the blood on his face. Athena enters listening to Pamela talking to her sons corpse. Pamela knows that Sebastian always complained that she chose the Commonwealth over him, but there never really was a choice. Pamela doesn't know if she was ever capable of giving Sebastian what he needed, of controlling him. Crying, Pamela wonders what, after all of this struggle and sacrifice, they are left with now, but *"at least we don't have to disappoint each other anymore."* Sebastian begins to reanimate and, composing herself, Pamela leaves the morgue, ordering a soldier outside to take care of Sebastian.

Confronted by Pamela and Athena, Lance admits that he had Roman and Shira kill the Commonwealth janitors in order to get her attention, but Lance insists that he never intended for Sebastian to die. On Pamela's order, two Commonwealth soldiers lead a zombified Sebastian into the cell. Landon follows suit and pulls Athena back from Sebastian. Sebastian is led in on a leash with his hands chained to his waist. Sebastian is released from the leash and his leg shackles and growls at his mother who reminds Lance that he's at the family's disposal and, thanks to him, this is almost all that's left of it. Roman's corpse is dragged in and Lance is given a machete. Telling a horrified Lance that the body is still warm, Pamela orders him to *"feed my son, Lance,"* intending to have Lance cut up Roman's corpse and feed it to Sebastian. Pamela and the soldiers depart, leaving Lance alone with Sebastian and Roman's corpse. Landon and Athena look at each other with worry what Pamela is going to do next.

Eugene later turns himself in and confesses to his role in Sebastian's death. However, he claims sole responsibility for the recording that Max had made in order to protect her from punishment for her role in the events.
