The sheriff and mostly moral center of the group of survivors from The Walking Dead, Rick has suffered greatly since awakening from the coma into a world of the dead. From finding his wife and child to seeing friends and loved ones perished, Rick has tried to maintain a strict code of ethics in an increasingly insane world.

And boy, has Rick suffered. There perhaps is no greater example of character mutiliation both physical and psychological than Rick Grimes. Rick has seen loss and the breakdown of society, and yet he maintains the presence to keep his wits most occasions, and lead the survivors from bad to worse to perhaps okay.

This is Rick prior to the Woodbury incident, although I'll reference that later. For those not familiar with the comic, all I can say is that the TV series will probably head that way....

So, Rick Grimes.

Rick Grimes

A: Gd (10)

Knowledge: Walkers
First Aid

Powers:
Die-Hard: Rick is something of a die-hard, often being able to cope with insurmountable odds as well as the horrific world in which he lives. Rick has also suffered from near-mortal wounds, including being shot at close range prior to the apocalypse and other serious injuries over the course of his life. Rick is considered to have Gd (10) resistance to fear, due to his experience, and can affect an Endurance FEAT when forced in life-or-death situations instead of his primary attribute. In addition, any action that Rick would suffer a mortal wound grants Rick an additional Endurance FEAT (unless a '01' is rolled), reflecting Rick's stamina.

LImitations:
Post-Traumatic Stress: Rick is beginning to show signs of the world in which he lives, causing him to suffer a -1cs to all FASERIP abilities when confronted with situations of a dire nature. Rick has been careful to hide these incidents, but they are beginning to take a toll on him.

Dependent: Carl: Rick is obsessed with protecting his son, and will lay down his own life to protect or save Carl. Carl is the last real link to Rick's life prior to the outbreak

Enemy: Woodbury: Rick is considered to have enemies of any surviving members of the Woodbury community.


Notes: Rick featured here is more akin to the comic than the TV series, although both seem to be about the same in many areas.

Arggh. Nice write up but pls put 'Contacts' as a spoiler too, as a certain major submission does not compute, at least according to the current state of the TV show; for folks like me who aren't following the comic and prefer no clues as to future story events, it'd be appreciated. Now I must Jedi-mind wash anything I've read in the past 5 mins

I prefer the show to the comics, but still a great write up!
