Ava (TWDG)

Hi

The product of a military family, Ava was a bullish student always at the top of her class, and her brief stint in the United States Armed Forces alongside her sister was no different. Though she presents a tough exterior, Ava is also severely compassionate, a trait her father always referred to as her “greatest fault”. Ava was in the army as seen in one of the memorial photos of her.

Following the outbreak, Ava and her sister were stationed at a military checkpoint that quickly fell apart, despite their valiant attempts to help hold it together. It was there that she met David. In the chaos, Ava watched her sister turn, and was forced to put her down.

Ava met up with David García in the early days of the outbreak. They joined up with an unknown community in an area near Washington D.C., but it didn't last long. They later met up with other survivors and formed "The New Frontier". Ava is one of David's most trusted soldiers and friends, acting as his right-hand woman.

Ava is first encountered by Clementine in a flashback, the woman entering an abandoned hut her and AJ were resting in due to being separated from her group due to the walkers. The two manage to barricade the door, Ava commenting they make a good team.

The pair begin talking, Ava expressing curiosity towards Clementine's situation with AJ, which Clementine can rebuff or accept. Ava reveals how the herd separated her from foraging with her group and that the surviving members would be waiting at the rendezvous. She soon rolls up her sleeve, revealing the Capricorn brand of the New Frontier and telling Clementine more about her group.

Ava then extends an offer that Clementine and AJ come with her and receive shelter, food and water. Clementine can either accept or refuse her offer, though Ava persuades Clementine to join her regardless in an unknown manner if she denies the invitation.

Ava is first seen when David shows Javier round Richmond.
