**Jane** is a major character and an anti-heroine in Telltale Games' *The Walking Dead* video game series, appearing in the second season as a main character and determinately a returning character in *A New Frontier* in flashbacks. She is a resourceful, opportunistic and cunning person who has managed to adapt very well to the harsh and unforgiving lifestyle of a survivor.

She was voiced by Christine Lakin.

## Her Qualities

### What Makes Her Entertaining?

* She is a tough and competent survivor who possesses various survival tactics, managing to adapt herself into the zombie-infested world.
* During the escape from Howe's Hardware plan, she teaches the group one of the important survival skills, suggesting that they could get through the herd of walkers by covering themselves in walker guts.
* While the group is escaping, Troy confronts them. She approaches him seductively while convincing him to let them go. After lowering Troy's guard, she shoots him in the groin and walks away, leaving him to be killed by walkers and saving some time for the group while walkers are lured to Troy's screams.
* The two stumble across a mobile home park, Jane teaches Clementine skills, such as looting walkers. Seeing two fresh corpses, Jane stabs them to make sure they are dead, because "you can never be too sure with these things". Jane then teaches Clementine that she must put him down because he was her friend. Further in the park, the two see two lone walkers. Jane teaches Clementine another skill, where she kicks the knee of the walker, causing them to fall on the stomach or back then killing them by stabbing them in the head. All of these skills significantly improved Clementine's survivability throughout the whole series and Clementine used them and taught these skills to his friends even years after she and Jane departured.
* She assists the cabin group numerous times, and despite abandoning them, she comes back once more and saves the group from Arvo's group.
* Despite destroying her bonds between the others, she still cares about Clementine, acting as a guardian of her and AJ for a while if she survives.

### What Makes Her Detestable?

* She is a heavily social Darwinist, believing that if people can't or don't want to be saved, they should be left behind rather than drag everyone else down with them. Because of this, people tend to see Jane as a cold-hearted woman who only cares about herself. With this belief, Jane left Sarah behind and suggested Clementine to do the same.
* Offers Luke having sex with her when she was supposed to be on watch walker in the obversation deck, causing negligence.
* She is needlessly a jerk towards people on multiple occasions, especially to Kenny, whom she decides to "play a game" with just to call him an asshole.
* Puts AJ in danger to provoke Kenny into going berserk and try to kill her so she could have an excuse to do the same, and can cause Clementine to shoot Kenny and killing him.
* (If Clementine went with Jane) After she found out that she is pregnant, she commits suicide to kill both herself and her own child.
