Clementine

*I'm not going to die. That's the whole problem. I keep...making it. Even after everyone else doesn't. Lee, my mom, my dad, and...there's so many now it's hard to keep track. I don't know, something in me changed after I got bit. I ignored it for awhile but it kept growing. This idea that I...I was going to live. And not just day by day like I had been. I could live for months...years...that I might be an adult someday, like my mom was. I don't know why but it scared me so much.*

**Clementine** is the main character of *The Walking Dead: The Telltale* series of video games and graphic novels. Once just an orphaned, scared but brave girl from the outskirts of Atlanta, Georgia, Clem was taken in by Lee Everett, a man who would become a father to her, raising her and training her in survival and communication skills. Despite her rural roots, Clem has traveled across all of the eastern United States over the course of the apocalypse, from Florida to Canada in journeys. In her initial adventures, she befriended a man named Kenny, who despite his temper and violent tendencies, loved Clem like a daughter and stood by her when no one else would. When she was 11 years old, Clem befriended the hostile-but-caring Rebecca and her good-natured husband, Alvin. As Rebecca died shortly after childbirth, it was up to Clem and Kenny to raise her son, Alvin Jr, though Kenny too shortly died.

As she grew older, Clem was burdened by the deaths of so many she cared about, causing her to grow jaded and hostile, though still deeply compassionate and kind-hearted. This could be seen in her increasing willingness to kill those who threatened her loved ones, such as when she attempted to kill Abel, Lilly, and Minerva, while also shown in her unwillingness to make her friends, like with her coldness towards Amos and Ricca.

Clem was bisexual and loved many boys and girls, such as Gabe, Louis, Violet and recently gained the attraction of Ricca. Unfortunately, due to the nature of her life, none of these relationships have lasted.

## Powers and Stats

**Abilities:** **Athletic Human Characteristics**, **Social Influencing** (Clem has great people skills, learned to her by Lee and her other companions. Often serving as the voice of reason in the groups she's in, Clem in her later years often and quickly assumed the role of the de-facto leader, becoming the leader of Ericson in two weeks, even though she was hated among more than half the school, due to her skills as a speaker. Some of her more specific feats include snapping Sarah out of an anxiety attack, , **Accelerated Development** (Clementine is a quick learner who can become quite skilled in just about anything she does, such as learning how to drive, fight, shoot, etc), **Hand-to-Hand Combat** (Although she's received little in the way of formal training, with her only known training coming from Jane who taught her the 'leg trick', Clem has proven herself to be a capable fighter in armed and unarmed melee combat. When she was just 11, she was able to dispatch a small group of walkers on a bridge by herself, despite the poor terrain of the location. As Clem became far more competent in fighting in seasons 3 and 4, after joining and leaving the New Frontier, a highly militaristic group founded by a former soldier, David Garcia, it's not unreasonable to assume that she was trained by them. Held her own against Lily and Minerva, two trained fighters. Her signature melee weapons include hatchets, axes and a bootknife) Clem has consistently been shown to be skilled at disarming, #1, #2, #3), **Marksmanship** (Clem is a good shot with guns and arrow. Quickly mastered the bow and arrow, which she used extensively during her final battles), **Stealth Mastery** (Clem is skilled at sneaking, due to her small frame and quick thinking. Snuck through the cabin without alerting any of its occupants and later made her way through Howe's without drawing the attention of its guards. Later snuck on board of the Delta Boat in spite of its highly trained guards even going as far as stealthily killing many of its soldiers), **Immense Willpower** (Stood conscious through her zombie bite out of sheer willpower to save A.J., a feat that Lee struggled to do in a similar context), **Preparations** (Planned the attack on Delta)

**Attack Potency:** **Athlete level** (Clem routinely kicked down doors. Almost as strong as Lilly, who received training from the Delta Squad)
