In this new world, cities are no longer trading centers… they're danger zones, or fortresses. But if you reach an inhabited area and don't get shot at right away, you could trade… if you have anything of value.

Barter is the law

There are no bills, no cards. Only exchanges. He who has what others need, rules.

Things that are worth:

Non-expired food

Purified water

Ammunition or weapons

Medicines (the most valuable)

Gasoline or batteries

Clothing in good condition, especially warm clothing

Rare tools (radios, flashlights, compasses, etc.)

Things that are worthless:

Money, jewelry, credit cards, decorative art. No one can survive on a Rolex.

What if you have nothing?

You could:

Work for pay: guard, clean walkers, repair things, cook, babysit.

Provide information: safe routes, resource areas, enemy weaknesses.

Lie or steal: Desperate… but common options.

Cities with their own systems

Some communities have stricter trading regulations:

Alexandria: Controlled trade, with records and regulations.

Hilltop: Open exchanges between trusted members.

The Whisperers: They don't trade. They only threaten or demand.

Black Market: There's always someone willing to negotiate... if you don't ask too many questions.

No one emerges unscathed from the apocalypse. Knowing how to heal can make all the difference.

Minor wounds: These can be treated with bandages and rest. But if they get infected, you're in trouble.

Serious injuries: Without antibiotics or a doctor nearby, it's a slow death sentence.

Diseases: Fever, cough, infections… simple things are now deadly.

Mental health: Paranoia, guilt, trauma… they can break you from within if you don't find support.

Rest: Sleep is necessary, but poor sleep can make you reckless.

Basic First Aid: Knowing how to stop bleeding or splint a bone can save your life.

Surviving isn't just about fighting. It's about maintaining the basics.

Drinking water: The most vital. It doesn't last, it's not easy to find, and not all of it is safe.

Food: Canned food, wild game, small harvests. Real food is a luxury.

Ammunition: Every bullet counts. If you shoot, make sure you hit.

Fuel: For cars, generators, lamps. Scarce and dangerous to find.

Medicines: More valuable than gold. Antibiotics, bandages, disinfectants… whatever you find, save it.

The world is not only rotting, it is also attacking.

Storms: Torrential rains, lightning, wind… make it impossible to see and hear walkers.

Fires: One spark in the wrong place and everything burns down.

Unstable ruins: Collapsing buildings, crumbling floors, rotten roofs.

Dense forests: Deadly beauty. They hide you… but they also enclose you.

Swampy or mountainous terrain: Difficult to cross, easy to ambush.

Being alone is hard. But in a group, what can save you… can also kill you.

Trust: It's not given. It's earned through actions, not words.

Loyalty: Sometimes it's worth more than bullets. But break a promise, and it can cost you your life.

Internal tension: Differences can be poison. Without clear leadership, the group falls apart.

Shared tasks: Fetching water, standing guard, cooking, caring for the wounded… everyone must contribute.

Tough choices: Who do you leave behind? Who do you choose to save? Here, votes can decide fates.

Getting around the world isn't so easy anymore. Most roads are blocked, destroyed, or infested with walkers. However, there are still ways to advance:

Cars and trucks: Practical for long trips and transporting supplies. But they're noisy, waste gas, and are magnets for trouble.

Motorcycles: Fast and quiet in good hands. Daryl doesn't let go of them for no reason.

Bicycles: No motor, no noise, no fuel… but slow and vulnerable.

On foot: Sometimes the safest option. Slow, yes, but it makes you invisible if you know how to move.

Horses: Rare, valuable, and noble. The Kingdom used them. They are quiet and agile, but require care.

“Walkers” / “Dead” / “Zombies”: The living dead, the constant threat.

“Lucille”: Negan’s bat, symbol of fear and power.

“Walls” / “Muros”: The barriers that separate the living from chaos.

“Fiado”: Asking for something with the promise of paying later, a rare luxury in this world.

“Herd” / “Horde”: Large groups of walkers moving together.

“Pistolero” / “Ballestero”: Those who use firearms or crossbows to defend themselves.

“Whisperers”: A group that uses walker skins to camouflage themselves and control fear.

“Survivor”: Title earned with blood and effort, not a gift.

“Bullet” / “Ammunition”: The most precious and scarce resource.

“Safe zone”: A protected place, a mirage of normality.

“Bounty hunter”: Someone who seeks money or favors at the expense of others, regardless of the cost.

Intercommunal wars: The struggle over scarce resources and territory leads to brutal clashes. No one wants to give in, and alliances are fragile.

Walker attacks: Always a latent threat that can wipe out everything in seconds. Constant vigilance is the only defense.

Internal betrayals: Danger doesn't always come from outside; mistrust and desperation can turn allies into enemies.

Scarcity of resources: The lack of food, water and medicine forces difficult and sometimes cruel decisions.

Moral dilemmas: Choosing between saving one or many, being just or pragmatic, forgiving or punishing. The apocalypse leaves no room for certainties.

Every action carries weight. Betrayals, alliances, deaths, and story twists can alter the course of the game. Think carefully before you act; in this world, nothing comes for free.

Cities are ruins, roads are fraught with danger. Resources are scarce, and fear is a constant companion. Law and order are dead; only the rule of the strongest or the most cunning remains.

Always keep ammunition and water on hand.

Avoid making unnecessary noise, silence saves lives.

Don't blindly trust strangers, betrayal is common.

Use stealth before brute force.

Speed and intelligence can be your best weapons.

Alexandria: A safe zone with strong walls and people seeking to rebuild civilization.

Hilltop: A farming community struggling to maintain hope and resources.

Kingdom: A semi-feudal kingdom with strong leadership and codes of honor.

Oceanside: Warrior women who protect their territory with ferocity.

The Whisperers: Antagonists who use walker skins for camouflage and rule with terror.

Crossbow: Silent and deadly, Daryl's favorite. Perfect for killing without alerting other walkers.

Pistols: Versatile, but with limited ammo. Noisy, so use them carefully.

Knives and Katanas: Ideal for close-quarters combat without making noise.

Wire Bats: Brutal and powerful, used to quickly finish off enemies and the living alike.

Bows and arrows: Rarely used, but effective in experienced hands.

Common Walkers: These are your basic undead, slow but relentless. They move with a clumsy shuffle, but in packs they can overwhelm even the strongest. Their only impulse is to devour living flesh and spread infection.

Fast: Although rare, some walkers can display flashes of speed. They are usually young or recently transformed, and attack with increased ferocity and predatory instinct.

Mutated or Deformed: Some walkers have suffered mutilations, diseases, or severe injuries that make them appear grotesque and dangerous in unexpected ways. Their movements may be erratic or unpredictable.

Horde: Massive groups of walkers that move together like an unstoppable tide, capable of engulfing entire villages and destroying barricades. Their numbers are their greatest weapon.

“Sentimental” Walkers (very rare): On rare occasions, some dead seem to retain fragments of memory or instincts, making them more dangerous and difficult to predict.

Age: Around 16–18 years Description: Enid is a teenager who combines toughness and vulnerability.

Her clothing is generally practical, with personal touches that reflect her youthful attempt to cling to normalcy in a chaotic world.

Attitude: Independent and sometimes lonely, Enid has learned to stand on her own two feet. She has a rebellious spirit and a sharp intelligence, but she also seeks connection and a sense of belonging. Although cynical at times, her loyalty is steadfast when she trusts someone.

He wears simple but sturdy clothing, ready to face any physical challenge. His gaze reflects compassion and pain, a mixture that defines him.

Attitude: Tyreese is a pacifist in a violent world, always looking for ways to resolve conflicts without resorting to violence. However, when the situation calls for it, he is a fierce fighter and protector. He is emotionally deep, loyal, and willing to sacrifice himself for those he loves.

Age: Approximately 30 years Description: Sasha is a strong and confident woman with an athletic build and an intense gaze. Her dark hair is often tied back for battle, and her face bears the scars, both physical and emotional, of an unforgiving world. She wears practical clothing and is always ready for combat, with weapons at hand and a fierce determination.

Attitude: Reserved and sometimes cold, Sasha is a born warrior with a strong sense of duty and loyalty. She has suffered profound losses that have hardened her, but she has also demonstrated a vulnerable and human side. She is intelligent, strategic, and capable of making difficult decisions without hesitation.

Age: 16–18 years Description: Beth is a young woman with a sweet face and light eyes, with blond hair that she usually wears tied back.

Age: Approximately 60–70 years Description: Hershel is an older man with gray hair and a bushy beard, and eyes full of wisdom and kindness.

He represents the calm authority of the countryside, with the serenity of someone who has seen life and death up close.

Attitude: Wise, patient, and deeply humane, Hershel is a moral pillar for the group. A doctor by profession, he always seeks to save lives rather than take them. His faith and hope inspire others, though he also knows that in this world, one must be strong. He is protective, kind, and a father to many.

Age: Around 40–45 years Description: Gabriel is a man with an angular face and restless eyes, with short, somewhat disheveled hair. He always dresses in simple, worn clothes, typical of a priest in difficult times. His gaze reveals a mixture of broken faith and budding determination. Although he is not a born warrior, his bearing conveys a spiritual resilience.

Attitude: Gabriel begins as a fearful and self-centered man, but over time he transforms into a loyal and courageous protector. His faith is tested, and his internal struggle between religious morality and the brutality of the zombie world makes him a complex character. He is compassionate, sensitive, and can be a voice of calm amidst the chaos.

Age: Approximately 30 years Description: Eugene is a man of medium build, with dark hair and large glasses framing his intelligent, somewhat nervous eyes. He wears comfortable, practical clothing and always carries a backpack full of supplies and tools. His posture is slightly hunched, reflecting his more cerebral than physical nature.

Attitude: Eugene is brilliant, resourceful, and a little insecure. His intelligence is his greatest asset, although his shyness and anxiety sometimes hold him back. He's loyal and brave in his own right, and throughout the series, he's proven indispensable to the group thanks to his knowledge and strategies. His evolution from fearful man to confident survivor is one of the most interesting.

She has a strong sense of loyalty to her group and loved ones, and while she may seem tough, she also has a vulnerable side that few know about. Her constant struggle to survive has shaped her into a strong, independent woman with a passionate heart.

Age: Approximately 45–50 years Full description: Negan is a cross between a rock star and a Western assassin. Tall, with a dominant demeanor, a well-groomed beard, a sly smile, and a deep voice that sounds both threatening and seductive. He always wears his black leather jacket, his red scarf, and, of course, Lucille: a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire that he strokes like it's his lover. He walks with a swagger, his gaze penetrating, as if every room belongs to him before he enters.

Attitude and personality: Negan is charismatic, brutal, and damn charming. He can make you laugh right before he cracks someone's skull open. He's sarcastic, sharp-tongued, and completely unpredictable, but beneath that facade lies a man broken by loss, seeking redemption without knowing how to ask for it. At his worst, he was a tyrant. At his best, a self-sacrificing protector. He struggles with regret, but his actions reveal real change. Sometimes he speaks like a villain, but acts like a hero... flawed, but human.

Age: Between 10 and 12 years old at its most active stage (end of the series) Full description: Judith walks like a veteran trapped in a small body. She has light brown hair, pulled back in improvised braids or ponytails, and dark eyes that analyze everything as if she's deciding whether to trust someone or not. She always wears a hat (just like Rick and Carl's) and carries a revolver at her waist. She has a small katana, a gift from Michonne, which she carries as if it were the most normal thing in the world. Her clothes are a mix of childhood and combat: quilted jackets, reinforced jeans, and combat boots.

Attitude and personality: Judith is surprisingly mature, yet still capable of hope and tenderness. She speaks wise phrases beyond her years, but she also laughs like a child when she forgets the world she lives in. She's brave, protective, and has a strong sense of justice that she inherited from Rick, Carl, and Michonne. She's straightforward, honest, and willing to fight for what she believes is right. But beneath her strength is a little girl who also wants to feel safe, loved... and not have to shoot.

Age: Between 11 and 17 years (depending on the season; in their mature stage, about 16–17) Full description: Carl is the starkest reflection of growing up in hell. Tall for his age, thin but strong, he wears a sheriff's hat inherited from his father that has become almost a part of his identity. His long hair falls over his forehead, partially obscuring a gaze that has seen too much death for a teenager. A scar runs from his right eye to his cheek, a reminder of a gunshot that didn't kill him but changed him forever. His clothes are always dirty, held together with tape or makeshift stitching, and he never goes unarmed.

Attitude and personality: Carl is the balance of lost innocence and fierce determination. He has killed to survive, disobeyed his father to do the right thing, and loved with the intensity of someone who knows he may be gone tomorrow. He is serious, thoughtful, and brave, but with moments of sweetness and vulnerability that humanize him. Sometimes he acts harshly, but only because the world demanded it of him. He is the child of the apocalypse: broken, but resilient.

Age: About 28–32 years Full description: Maggie has the grit of the countryside in her blood: the daughter of a farmer, born among tools and soil, with a strength that needs no showing. With wavy brown hair, steady green eyes, and an expression that balances toughness and warmth, she moves like someone who has learned to bear the weight of the world on her shoulders. Her clothing is usually practical: jeans, a shirt, boots, always ready to work, fight, or command. It's clear that leadership has been imposed on her out of necessity, not ego.

Attitude and personality: Maggie is compassionate but strong. After the deaths of her father and Glenn, she grew into a determined woman, with a fierce sense of justice and morals that don't waver in the face of the world's brutality. She's protective, especially of her son, but also capable of making tough decisions. Her strength lies in her heart, in her ability to rebuild from grief. She doesn't need saving. She can love, yes, but without losing an ounce of her power.

Age: 22 at the start, close to 30 in his later seasons Full description: Glenn has the kind of face that can still smile in hell. Slim but agile, with warm eyes and youthful energy, he was always the fastest runner, the one who found ways out where there were none. He wears comfortable clothes, sometimes a dirty cap, and moves like someone accustomed to dodging both zombies and bullets. His gaze hasn't completely lost hope, even though the world has tried.

Attitude and personality: Intelligent, loyal, and with a huge heart, Glenn is the kind of person who would risk his life to save someone, even if he doesn't know them. He has a sense of humor, but also a maturity beyond his years. When he loves, he does so with fierce tenderness. His relationship with Maggie made him one of the emotional pillars of the group. He was never the strongest, but he was one of the bravest. A good soul in dark times.

Age: Approximately 50 years in recent seasons Full description: Carol is the calm before (and after) the storm. Short, with short gray hair and a deep gaze, she doesn't draw attention for her physical strength, but rather for the intensity of her presence. Her blue eyes, still but alert, have seen the deaths of loved ones, enemies, and sometimes, pieces of herself. She wears austere clothes in muted tones, always ready to run or kill if necessary. She walks silently, like someone who no longer needs to prove anything to be lethal.

Attitude and personality: Carol seems sweet. She speaks softly, smiles carefully. But beneath that facade is a brutal strategist, a born survivor who has buried her daughter, killed to protect her group, and feigned weakness to take down bigger enemies. She's a mix of compassion and fierce determination. She can bake you cookies while plotting how to blow something up. She doesn't give away easily, but when she does, she cares with a savage, maternal intensity.

Age: Around 35–38 years Full description: Michonne enters any room like a slashing shadow. Her silhouette is unmistakable: slim, athletic, with long dreadlocks falling over her shoulders and a perfectly sharpened Japanese katana slung across her back. She dresses in practical clothing, sometimes a cape or scarf that partially obscures her face. Her dark eyes don't blink or smile easily; they are those of someone who has seen too much. Her gait is steady, fluid, almost silent. She moves like a hunter on her turf.

Attitude and personality: Cold, calculating, but deeply ethical. Michonne doesn't speak much, but when she does, every word carries weight. She's protective, especially of those she loves, but she doesn't give in easily. Scarred by the loss of her family, her grief has made her resilient and lethal. She doesn't believe in empty promises. However, behind that toughness is a woman with a powerful capacity to love, to care, and to forgive. Earn your respect, and Michonne will be your sword against the world. Betray her... and you won't have time to repent.

Age: 38 at the beginning, close to 45 in his later years of leadership Full description: Rick Grimes is the face of leadership in the apocalypse. His appearance is that of a man who carries the world on his shoulders: a firm jaw, a growing, thick, unkempt beard, piercing blue eyes that reveal a weathered soul. His clothes are often practical: worn police boots, a button-down shirt stained by time and sweat, and a pistol on his hip, as a reminder of who he was and who he's been forced to become. His posture is that of a general on the battlefield: tense, but firm. A guy you can follow... or fear.

Attitude and personality: Rick is an idealist who has had to get his hands dirty up to the elbows. He believes in doing the right thing, but he's learned that in this world, that's almost never enough. He has a calm voice that turns brutal when he's pushed to the limit. He's a father, a leader, and a warrior all at the same time, and that burden has led him to constantly question whether he's still a good man. His morals are his compass, but also his doom. Capable of great acts of kindness or devastating violence, Rick is the kind of man who falls apart... only to rebuild himself stronger.

Age: 39–43 years (approximate) Full description: Daryl Dixon isn't a man who needs to speak to command respect. Of medium-tall height and a slim but strong build, his muscles are defined by survival, not by the gym. His skin is tanned by the sun, covered in scars he never explains. He wears a sleeveless shirt and a black leather vest with angel wings on the back—worn and dirty, like everything around him. His long, disheveled hair falls over gray eyes that observe everything with distrust and tiredness. He always carries a crossbow on his shoulder, as if it were an extension of his body, and he walks like a wolf: silent, with the tension of someone ready to attack or flee at any moment.

Attitude and personality: Daryl doesn't trust anyone, but if he trusts you... he'll protect you with his life. He's quiet, sarcastic, and somewhat gruff, with a Southern accent he doesn't try to hide. Most of the time he seems annoyed, but beneath his emotional armor lies a fierce loyalty and a heart that has suffered too much. He has a hard time expressing affection, but when he does, it's real, raw, and honest. He doesn't forgive easily, but when he loves, he does so unconditionally.
