The family of Sergeant Abraham Ford. They abandoned him after watching him brutally murder a bunch of attackers, and were later killed by walkers.

* AdaptationNameChange: Ellen was named Beth in the comics. To avoid a OneSteveLimit with Beth Greene, her name was changed to Ellen in the show.
* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: Inverted. They were raped in the comic, but this doesn't appear to be the case in the show.
* EatenAlive: They were devoured by walkers, presumably while they were still alive.
* LivingEmotionalCrutch: After their deaths, Abraham nearly blew his brains out, his reason to live completely gone. Fortunately, Eugene chose that particular moment to make his introduction...
* TheLostLenore: Ellen is this for Abraham.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: The names of Abraham's children weren't mentioned in the comic.
* NonActionGuy: They don't appear to have been combat-proficient, as they were killed by a small group of walkers and seem to have relied on [[ActionDad Abraham]] to do most of the fighting.

Alpha's husband and Lydia's father. He was murdered by his wife early in the outbreak.

* AbusiveParents: [[UnreliableNarrator Alpha]] makes Lydia believe he was one, when it was really the other way around. Lydia eventually realizes the truth and admits that, despite her mother's manipulation, he was a good father and she misses him.
* BeardOfEvil: His beard accentuates his despicability in the scenes where we're led to believe he was an abusive HateSink. In reality, he had no beard and was a loving father and victim of his wife's abuse.
* CanonForeigner: Alpha made no mention of a husband in the comics.
* CharacterDeath: Alpha stabbed him in the neck to prevent him from taking Lydia from her.
* DeathByOriginStory: His early demise left Lydia in the sole custody of [[AbusiveParents Alpha]].
* GoodCounterpart: To Carol's husband, Ed. Ed was a DomesticAbuser and PervertDad who more than deserved his gruesome death by a walker; Frank was a loving but weak-willed father who met a tragic end at the hands of his psychotic wife.
* {{Jerkass}}: He's nothing but rude and condescending to his wife. Or, rather, Alpha would let Lydia think he was.
* NonActionGuy: Alpha tells Lydia he was stupid and weak. And while he doesn't appear to have been a coward, she probably wasn't far off from the truth, seeing as he puts up zero fight when Alpha has him cornered.
* PapaWolf: Subverted. While he loved Lydia dearly, it's made clear he wasn't a fighter and he's quickly killed by Alpha, who is the real beast in the family (for better or worse).

[[caption-width-right:300:''"Why couldn't you just wait until morning? I told you it wasn't safe."'']]
!!!'''Portrayed By:''' Creator/KevinCarroll
!!!'''Voiced By:''' Héctor Garay (Spanish dub)
!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Series/TheWalkingDead'' (Seasons 10-11)

->''"Mercy's in short supply these days. I don't expect it. Maybe I don't deserve it."''

A survivor trying to get home to his family… his undead family, which he neglects to mention to Michonne when he has her accompany him back to his base on Bloodsworth Island, promising weapons that could help the Coalition win the Whisperer War. He intended to use Michonne as a weapon to protect himself from the three people he’d already captured, but soon makes her his fourth captive, forcing her onto drug-induced trips. Michonne and his other captives escape and decide to spare him, knowing he will regret his decisions for the rest of his life. However, Michonne’s meeting with him bears fruit in that she discovers Rick clearly survived his apparent death, and she leaves Virgil alone on the island at his request.

However, Virgil eventually realized he must make amends for what he had done to his prisoners, and made his way off the island to join the Coalition as penance. Finding Oceanside deserted during the final battle of the Whisperer War, he eventually stumbles upon a weak Connie, and the two became traveling companions as they tried to get Connie back home.
----
* AntiVillain: He commits several ''very'' heinous acts like keeping three people prisoner and drugging Michonne, but Season 11 makes it clear he isn't truly a bad person at heart.
* TheAtoner: [[spoiler:He makes it clear he feels terrible for what he did to Michonne, and vows to help Connie get home and inform Michonne's friends of her departure to make up for it.]]
* BigDamnHeroes: Arrives in the nick of time to save Luke from being bitten by a walker.
* TheBusCameBack: Returns in "A Certain Doom", having gotten off the island and presumably looking to make amends by informing Michonne's friends of her quest to find Rick. He vanishes again after this episode, then returns alongside Connie in "On the Inside".
* CanonForeigner: He doesn't appear in the comics.
* DirtyCoward: Drags Michonne away from a war simply because he couldn't put down his zombified family himself and also because he wanted protection from three people he'd kept locked up and was considering letting go. [[spoiler:He stops being this in Season 11.]]
* FailedASpotCheck: In "On the Inside", he does a sweep of the house he and Connie take shelter in but fails to realize it's home to a bunch of savages living in the walls.
* {{Foil}}: Being a lone African-American man who suffers from SanitySlippage after the deaths of his family, who he is unable to actually kill himself, he definitely calls to mind Morgan Jones. Both also struggled with not wanting to kill people. The difference is that Morgan eventually became a hardened killer who believed MurderIsTheBestSolution when dealing with enemies, while Virgil is a NonActionGuy who prefers to subdue people by drugging them instead of through lethal force.
* ForWantOfANail: Say what you want about Virgil, but without him, Michonne might never have discovered Rick survived his apparent death in Season 9.
* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:"On the Inside" shows he's become TheAtoner who teams up with Connie to escape a house of animalistic savages.]]
* IChooseToStay: Even when given the chance to leave, he opts to remain on the island alone. However, he eventually leaves the island, heads to Oceanside and finds Connie.
* ILied: There aren't actually any guns on the island. His family is also long dead.
* IWillOnlySlowYouDown: [[spoiler:He tells Connie to leave him behind if he becomes a burden as they try to escape. Connie refuses, and helps Virgil to his feet even after he gets stabbed in the back three times.]]
* KarmaHoudini: He gets off pretty light all things considered, and he knows it, which is why he becomes TheAtoner.
* MadeOfIron: [[spoiler:Even after being stabbed in the back three times, he's still able to get to his feet and escape the Ferals' house before passing out. Two episodes later he's walking around just fine, albeit a bit weak.]]
* MeaningfulName: In ''Literature/TheDivineComedy'', Virgil serves as Dante's "guide" to help him to reach paradise, similar to how Virgil is Michonne's guide to the island and later tries to get her experience paradise by drugging her. Michonne's response is that she saw Hell, not Heaven.
* MythologyGag: His look and prominence at Oceanside strongly resembles Pete from the comics. They're otherwise completely different characters.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Accidentally caused the deaths of his family by locking them in the building where a riot was taking place, which led to their suicides when things got real bad.
* NonActionGuy: Impressively, he's managed to survive a ''decade'' into the apocalypse without ever getting the hang of killing walkers; he's able to kill one to save Luke, however, so he ''is'' still capable of handling them in a one-on-one scenario. [[spoiler:He outgrows this in "On the Inside", where he takes down at least two Ferals to save Connie.]]
* PutOnABus: He stays behind on the island while Michonne and the people he had captured leave on a newly repaired boat. However he later leaves the island, heads to Oceanside and later encounters Connie.
* SanitySlippage: After the deaths of his family.
* SecretKeeper: He’s the only one who knows the real reason Michonne left the Coalition, or at least that her claim that she went to help people isn’t entirely true, besides Judith and R.J.
* SixthRanger: [[spoiler:He joins Alexandria after he and Connie are found at the end of "On the Inside".]]
* SoleSurvivingScientist: Zig-zagged. It ''seems'' that way at first. Then it's revealed he's keeping three other people, who are also scientists, prisoner. Then played straight when Virgil chooses to stay behind on the island instead of leave with Michonne on the boat.
* SoleSurvivor: The only living member of his family, and as of the end of "What We Become", the only surviving member (alive or dead) on Bloodsworth Island until he left it as of "A Certain Doom".
* StatusQuoIsGod: The likely reason he has disappeared from the show since “For Blood” is that [[HeKnowsTooMuch he knows Michonne left to look for Rick]], a revelation that would likely completely upend the Coalition and send them after Michonne - at a time when neither Creator/AndrewLincoln and Creator/DanaiGurira are slated to return to the show.
* TookALevelInBadass: [[spoiler:He's ''much'' more combat-proficient in "On the Inside" than he was previously. Justified as he's now fighting to protect someone other than himself.]]
* TookALevelInKindness: [[spoiler:He was not a jerk before, ''per se'', but he was still a selfish coward who kept prisoners locked in a cell and lied to Michonne about having guns on his island. In "On the Inside" he's mellowed out significantly and has a solid rapport with Connie as they work together to survive a house full of feral savages.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: It's tough to talk about him without spoiling the reasons surrounding Michonne's departure midway through Season 10.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler:He's last seen heading upstairs to take shelter from walkers invading Alexandria in "For Blood". Even when the main storyline moves to the Commonwealth, there's not a mention of what happened to Virgil or if he's still living in Alexandria.]]

Virgil’s family. They were accidentally locked inside the facility on Bloodsworth Island by Virgil, and chose to commit suicide together rather than be killed by a swarm of walkers. Michonne begrudgingly helps Virgil put them down.
----
* AndThenJohnWasAZombie: Since their brains weren't destroyed, they all reanimated after committing suicide.
* BetterToDieThanBeKilled: They chose to hang themselves to avoid being slaughtered during one of the riots.
* DrivenToSuicide: Virgil and Michonne find their zombified corpses hanging in the room where they killed themselves together.
* TheLostLenore: Lisa is this for Virgil. Her death, along with those of their children, causes him to lose his mind.
* MoralityChain: For Virgil. Specifically, he mentions that his wife used to always keep him grounded.
* SuicidePact: They apparently followed through on one, since their bodies are still together when Michonne and Virgil find them.
* WalkingSpoiler: Finding out what really happened to them spoils Virgil's entire backstory and motivations, as well as the fact that he lied to Michonne about there being guns on the island.

* IWillOnlySlowYouDown: [[spoiler:He tells Connie to leave him behind if he becomes a burden as they try to escape. Connie refuses, and helps Virgil to his feet even after he gets stabbed in the back three times.]]
* KarmaHoudini: He gets off pretty light all things considered.
* MadeOfIron: [[spoiler:Even after being stabbed in the back three times, he's still able to get to his feet and escape the Ferals' house before passing out. Two episodes later he's walking around just fine, albeit a bit weak.]]
* MeaningfulName: In ''Literature/TheDivineComedy'', Virgil serves as Dante's "guide" to help him to reach paradise, similar to how Virgil is Michonne's guide to the island and later tries to get her experience paradise by drugging her. Michonne's response is that she saw Hell, not Heaven.
* MythologyGag: His look and prominence at Oceanside strongly resembles Pete from the comics. They're otherwise completely different characters.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Accidentally caused the deaths of his family by locking them in the building where a riot was taking place, which led to their suicides when things got real bad.
* NonActionGuy: Impressively, he's managed to survive a ''decade'' into the apocalypse without ever getting the hang of killing walkers; he's able to kill one to save Luke, however, so he ''is'' still capable of handling them in a one-on-one scenario. [[spoiler:He outgrows this in "On the Inside", where he takes down at least two Ferals to save Connie.]]
* PutOnABus: He stays behind on the island while Michonne and the people he had captured leave on a newly repaired boat. However he later leaves the island, heads to Oceanside and later encounters Connie.
* SanitySlippage: After the deaths of his family.
* SixthRanger: [[spoiler:He joins Alexandria after he and Connie are found at the end of "On the Inside".]]
* SoleSurvivingScientist: Zig-zagged. It ''seems'' that way at first. Then it's revealed he's keeping three other people, who are also scientists, prisoner. Then played straight when Virgil chooses to stay behind on the island instead of leave with Michonne on the boat.
* SoleSurvivor: The only living member of his family, and as of the end of "What We Become", the only surviving member (alive or dead) on Bloodsworth Island until he left it as of "A Certain Doom".
* TookALevelInBadass: [[spoiler:He's ''much'' more combat-proficient in "On the Inside" than he was previously. Justified as he's now fighting to protect someone other than himself.]]
* TookALevelInKindness: [[spoiler:He was not a jerk before, ''per se'', but he was still a selfish coward who kept prisoners locked in a cell and lied to Michonne about having guns on his island. In "On the Inside" he's mellowed out significantly and has a solid rapport with Connie as they work together to survive a house full of feral savages.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: It's tough to talk about him without spoiling the reasons surrounding Michonne's departure midway through Season 10.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler:He's last seen heading upstairs to take shelter from walkers invading Alexandria in "For Blood". Even when the main storyline moves to the Commonwealth, there's not a mention of what happened to Virgil or if he's still living in Alexandria.]]

* AndThenJohnWasAZombie: Since their brains weren't destroyed, they all reanimated after committing suicide.
* BetterToDieThanBeKilled: They chose to hang themselves to avoid being slaughtered during one of the riots.
* DrivenToSuicide: Virgil and Michonne find their zombified corpses hanging in the room where they killed themselves together.
* TheLostLenore: Lisa is this for Virgil. Her death, along with those of their children, causes him to lose his mind.
* MoralityChain: For Virgil. Specifically, he mentions that his wife used to always keep him grounded.
* SuicidePact: They apparently followed through on one, since their bodies are still together when Michonne and Virgil find them.

!!!'''Debut:''' "[[Recap/TheWalkingDeadS10E14LookAtTheFlowers Look at the Flowers]]"

->''"I'm not crazy, if that's what you're thinking. I mean, there's the ADHD, the anxiety, the PTSD, the depression, the crushing loneliness, and the active imagination that helps me cope with all of that, but, like, maybe that's the only sane response to an insane world."''

A quirky survivor encountered by Eugene, Yumiko, and Ezekiel on their way to meet Stephanie. She hails from Pittsburgh and worked in a music store before the apocalypse. Despite some initial reluctance, Eugene’s group agrees to take her in as one of their own as they enter processing at the Commonwealth.
----
* NumberOneDime: One memento she keeps from before the apocalypse is a two dollar bill that was the first money she ever earned at her first job. It's confiscated by the Commonwealth people before the group's interrogation. After telling them about its significance, Princess asks if she can have it back.
* AbusiveParents: Her stepfather was a physically abusive asshole who refused to let her eat at the dinner table because her hand was infected by a splinter. Her mother wasn't all that great either, sending her to school with the infection and ordering her not to eat if she didn't want to eat in the garage alone. When the Commonwealth auditors inquire what her parents did for a living, Princess quips, "You mean Deadbeat Loser #1 or Raging Prick #2?"
* ActionGirl: While we haven't seen her in action much, she doesn't show any concern about killing walkers.
* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Her comic counterpart wasn't introduced until after the Whisperers arc.
* AdaptationalNationality: She is Puerto Rican in the show, but Mexican-American in the comics. Actress Paola Lázaro asked for the chance to represent her own Latin heritage, as the show already had a regular Mexican-American character in Rosita. The showrunners liked the idea and complied.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: She's more empathetic and well-meaning than her snarkier, slightly {{Troll}}-ish comic counterpart. The show notably omits the moment from the comic where she screws with the group by calling out to her non-existent backup and then obnoxiously laughing about it when she admits it was a joke, evoking a DudeNotFunny reaction from everyone present.
* TheAloner: UpToEleven. She's been living by herself in the city for over a year.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: She's able to tell a variety of things about the masked Commonwealth soldiers (like the fact that two of them are ''having sex'' between shifts) by picking up on subtle cues in their body language and behavior, as well as listening closely to their conversations. The rest of the group is flabbergasted, but they use this information to their advantage by choosing the right moment to escape their confines.
* BadassAdorable: Has a very sweet, good-natured disposition and is quite comfortable killing walkers. She also looks adorable in her princess Halloween costume in "New Haunts".
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Princess may be one of the nicest survivors around, but she's fiercely protective of the people she cares about and can dish out a beating when properly pissed off.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: Again, just because she's a {{Cloudcuckoolander}} doesn't mean she should be underestimated. She beats the ever-loving shit out of Commonwealth soldier who holds her at gunpoint.
* BladeOnAStick: Her WeaponOfChoice next to her machine gun.
* BroodingBoyGentleGirl: With Mercer, surprisingly. She shows nothing but love and empathy when he nearly breaks down after being forced to kill two of his own traitorous soldiers. She then gently assures him that she can handle whatever problems they have to face together in the future.
* BrutalHonesty: Princess isn't afraid to shoot straight and call her friends out on their shit. It first comes up in "Promises Broken" when Ezekiel starts coughing while fighting walkers and Princess warns him to not let something as foolish as pride keep him from getting the medical help he needs. When Eugene thinks something sinister is at play following Stephanie's disappearance, Princess spells out the hard truth that she may have simply broken up with him. [[spoiler:Eugene is ultimately proven right, but it's understandable why Princess thought he might have blown it out of proportion.]]
* TheCakeIsALie: PlayedForLaughs. She becomes concerned about Eugene when he barricades himself in his apartment after Stephanie stands him up for an ice cream date. Princess offers him lasagna if he lets her inside.
-->'''Eugene:''' This is an empty dish.
-->'''Princess:''' Oh, yeah, sorry. I didn't make lasagna. People just always have to let you in if you're carrying food.
* CharacterDevelopment: Her social skills improve after she joins the Commonwealth. Highlighted in "Rogue Element" when she acts as the voice of reason to Eugene's paranoia, and in "Trust", when she comforts Mercer after he opens up and shows he's more than just the stoic general most people see him as.
* CheeryPink: She wears a pink coat and can usually be found in good spirits.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Partly because she's been on her own for so long, but later episodes reveal her to be naturally weird and quirky.
* ContraltoOfDanger: Subverted. She has the deepest voice of the female cast and is a force to be reckoned with in her own right, but she's also one of the friendliest and most well-meaning characters.
* {{Cuckoosnarker}}: She gets in a few good quips.
-->'''Princess:''' So did you guys set up, like, a super-secret code or something?\\
'''Eugene:''' Greetings! I am Eugene Porter!\\
'''Princess:''' So, no code. Or, a really lame code.
* ADayInTheLimelight: "Splinter", which delves into her traumatic backstory and gives the audience a peek into her psyche and motivations.
* DisappearedDad: Her father ran out on her when she was a kid. Princess assumed it was because he caught her smoking his cigarettes, but she never found out the real reason why.
* EatingTheEyeCandy: She checks Mercer out and compliments him on his physique.
* EleventhHourRanger: Subverted due to real-life circumstances. She joins Eugene's group as the newest heroic survivor and ally in "The Tower", which was the penultimate episode of Season 10... until the COVID-19 pandemic eventually led to Season 10 being extended by an additional six episodes. Either way, she's one of the last new heroic survivors to join the heroes' side in what would ultimately be announced to be the penultimate season of the show.
* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: Stops having WildHair after over a month of living at the civilized Commonwealth.
* FriendlessBackground: Admits that being alone for a year isn't really that different from her life before the apocalypse.
* FunPersonified: It initially puts her at odds with the no-nonsense Yumiko, though they become friends after Princess reveals her more vulnerable side.
* GenkiGirl: She's very chatty and energetic, and is excited to finally meet new people.
* GenreRefugee: She almost seems to have originated from much more light-hearted zombie fare such as ''Film/{{Zombieland}}'', with her bright outfit, big smile, dyed hair, and even her use of childlike words like "meanie".
* TheGlomp: When Yumiko asks Princess to join the mission she is delighted and gives her a big hug.
* GoMadFromTheIsolation: All this time without anyone to talk to has made her a bit loopy and desperate for human contact.
* GoodBadGirl: She's a very sweet and bubbly woman, and casually mentions to Mercer after their second night together that she's had "a lot of sex" in her life.
* {{Hallucinations}}: Revealed to suffer from these in "Splinter". She imagines having entire conversations with Eugene and Ezekiel, and initially believes Ezekiel to have roughed up a Commonwealth soldier when it was really ''her'' who did.
* HatesBeingAlone: Understandable, considering how long she's been on her own. She extends the group's hasty search for transportation if it means they'll stick around longer; after realizing the true extent of Princess's loneliness, Yumiko invites her to join them.
* HiddenDepths: "Acheron, Part I" shows Princess to be more observant than she seems. She mentions this trope when trying to get Mercer to open up in "Trust". Despite her seemingly devil-may-care attitude she's actually a great listener and her abusive past has given her a knack for recognizing when people are going through trauma.
* HyperAwareness: Because of her ADHD, she can lose focus at times but also has an eye for picking up on subtle details that others don't. She's the only one to spot a picture that Tomi posted of his sister on the Commonwealth's wall honoring their fallen loved ones. This convinces the group to stay when they were moments from making their escape and likely severing ties with a vast community that could provide aid to their friends struggling in Alexandria.
* IconicOutfit: Her pink fur jacket.
* IconicSequelCharacter: She doesn't appear in the series until its tenth season.
* IJustWantToHaveFriends: She admits that someone once told her she was difficult to love and clearly just wants to make a good impression on the first people she's encountered in over a year.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: She doesn't go by "queen" because she thinks it makes her sound old and pretentious... not knowing that Ezekiel used to call himself "king", or that his ex-wife Carol was his "queen".
* KarmicJackpot: After beating up Trooper Davis, she has the opportunity to escape the railyard and argues with a hallucination of Ezekiel who encourages her to strike out on her own. However, Princess acknowledges that, as briefly as she’s known them, Eugene, Ezekiel, and Yumiko have been some of the few people in her life who have genuinely accepted her and she’s grown to care for them too, so she heads back. This turns out to be a very rewarding choice, as not only does the Commonwealth prove to be a relatively cushy environment with many perks, Princess is accepted into society after being alone for a year, given a job in which she can interact with numerous people, and even starts a romantic relationship with the general of the Commonwealth army, Mercer. Also, by not leaving, Princess secures a positive outcome for the other three members of the group: she notices a photo of Yumiko on the Commonwealth's wall honoring their lost loved ones, convincing the four to not abandon ship and ensuring that Yumiko gets to reunite with her estranged brother, Ezekiel gets the medical treatment he needs that ultimately saves his life, and Eugene (after a period of deception due to Lance's machinations) finally gets to meet his radio contact who turns out to be the love of his life, Max.
* KindheartedCatLover: Mentions that she was thinking about getting herself "a little cat" for her apartment at the Commonwealth.
* KindnessButton: After Yumiko risks angering Princess when she has a machine gun pointed at them, Ezekiel defuses the situation by complimenting the walker "decorations" she has set up around the city. Princess immediately returns to her jovial self.
* LikeBrotherAndSister: Settles into this with fellow oddball [[TheComicallySerious Eugene]]. And if everything works out with the Mercer siblings, they could very well be actual [[BestFriendsInLaw family]] too one day.
* LoonWithAHeartOfGold: She's a {{Cloudcuckoolander}} and a total sweetheart.
* MeaningfulAppearance: Her purple hair and pink coat, both of which reflect her wild and flamboyant personality.
* MirrorCharacter: Has something in common with Ezekiel, Eugene, and Yumiko each. They all realize it and it helps bond them as they decide to bring Princess into the fold.
** Like Eugene, Princess went as far as deceiving people just so she could have companionship. Princess also suffers from self-loathing especially when it comes to how she connects with other people, which Eugene all but said when he was venting to Rosita about his apparently failed romantic prospects with Stephanie in “Morning Star”.
** Like Ezekiel, Princess puts on an eccentric, overly positive front when really she’s just trying to hide how broken she is by all the traumas in her life. She also has a flair for being theatrical as evidenced by her walker decorations around the city. The two of them also go by a royalty-based title, though Ezekiel doesn't tell Princess that.
** Like Yumiko, she also wants some sort of connection with new people. For Princess, it’s because she’s been alone for over a year in the city. For Yumiko, it’s because she just broke up with Magna.
* MoreDakka: Her machine gun. Unfortunately for Eugene's group, their horses don't take kindly to the noise it makes...
* MotorMouth: Sometimes, befitting her GenkiGirl personality. She dials it down a few notches after joining the Commonwealth, though [[OfficialCouple Mercer]] says it's one of the things he likes about her.
* MythologyGag: In the comics, Eugene's group has to travel through Pittsburgh to reach their rendezvous; here they meet Princess, who calls herself the "Princess of Pittsburgh". In the show, they only travel to West Virginia and Princess is merely originally ''from'' Pittsburgh.
* NiceGirl: Oh yes. Despite some initial awkwardness, Princess is caring, good-natured, compassionate, and friendly.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero:
** Princess shoots at walkers with her machine gun, accidentally scaring away the group's horses. This leads to their mission being delayed as they now have to search for a new method of transportation.
** She tries to go for one of the Commonwealth soldier's weapons, which causes them to hit Yumiko over the head when she leaps to Princess' defense.
** Her giving Tyler a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown results in him losing his job and contributes to the start of a possible revolution in the Commonwealth.
* NoBikesInTheApocalypse: Averted. It turns out the "new set of wheels" she promised Eugene's group are, in fact, bicycles. Eugene takes it in stride, opining that traveling at 20 MPH is preferable to making the journey on foot.
* NonconformistDyedHair: Her hair is dyed purple.
* NoodleIncident: She was apparently arrested at some point before the apocalypse. She doesn't go into any specifics but she does claim, "It wasn't me."
* NoSocialSkills: Acknowledges that her people skills leave much to be desired. She does get better once she integrates herself into the group more, and by the time they reach the Commonwealth has become a much more socially adept, though still occasionally awkward, individual.
* NotHelpingYourCase: Her attempts to help Eugene's group and get them to trust her just end up making her look worse. First, she scares away their horses with her machine gun fire while trying to prove how useful she can be against walkers. Next, she starts talking to herself while debating whether she should hand over her gun, including saying she could probably kill at least one of them before the others take her out. Then, she leads them into a minefield that killed one of their horses and causes their mission to be delayed by several hours. Finally, Eugene realizes she's been leading them around in a circle ''all day'', which almost makes a very fed-up Yumiko put an arrow in her skull on the spot. Thankfully, the group comes to accept Princess when she comes clean and apologizes for wasting their time, which makes them realize she is harmless but lonely.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Goes by "Princess" due to not liking the name Juanita and because she thinks "Queen" makes her sound "old and pretentious".
* OppositesAttract: The colorful and childish Princess becomes involved with the rather stoic and no-nonsense Mercer.
* PluckyComicRelief: Most of her scenes have her saying or doing something funny. Make no mistake, though, [[SadClown even she has her own personal demons.]]
* SadClown: Princess is one of the most cheerful people you'll ever meet, but she's a lot more lonely than her peppy exterior would suggest. She also suffers from PTSD, anxiety, and depression stemming from an abusive childhood.
* SanitySlippage: Spending over a year alone in an abandoned city will do that to you. She even questions whether Eugene's group is real or if she's simply losing it.
-->'''Princess:''' I've never hallucinated before, but there's a first time for everything.
** "Splinter" reveals her to be considerably less sane than initially thought. While not malicious, she suffers from hallucinations and can fly into an UnstoppableRage if provoked.
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: The peppy, upbeat Energetic Girl to Mercer's cool-headed, pragmatic Savvy Guy.
* SheCleansUpNicely: While Princess is always pretty, she is initially rather unkempt; being TheAloner, she likely hasn't been concerned about her appearance for awhile. After living at the Commonwealth for a month, she starts looking a lot more polished.
* SheepInSheepsClothing: Yumiko spends most of "The Tower" convinced Princess's eccentric persona is merely a front for a darker nature and that she's leading the group into a trap. Turns out Princess really ''is'' a good-natured person who is a bit kooky from living on her own.
* ShipperOnDeck: She's supportive of Eugene's interest in Stephanie, playfully teasing him about it and later warming up to "Stephanie" pretty quickly.
* ShipTease: She quickly becomes interested in Mercer, calling him a "fine ass dude" and hitting on him directly in "Out of the Ashes" (albeit also to provide a distraction). They later attend the masquerade ball together in "New Haunts", and by "Trust", [[RelationshipUpgrade have begun sleeping together and forming a more serious relationship.]]
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: The first thing that attracts her to Mercer beyond his physical appearance is that he makes sure her $2 bill is returned to her after the screening process.
* SixthRanger: Well, ''fourth'' ranger. Yumiko invites her on the journey to meet Stephanie with Eugene and Ezekiel.
* SmarterThanYouLook: At first glance one might think she's just a ditzy loon, but she's in fact quite perceptive.
* SweetTooth: In "The Tower", she suggests bringing some candy on the trip to meet Stephanie. In "Out of the Ashes", she helps herself to Eugene's raspberry ice cream after he hands it off to her. In "Promises Broken", she eagerly takes a lollipop from Ezekiel after he reveals he hoarded a few from his trip to the doctor's office.
* TheTeamWannabe: It's immediately clear that she wants Eugene's group to stick around and keep her company. To show how helpful can be, Princess eagerly mows down a few walkers with her machine gun... [[EpicFail which scares away the group's horses and puts her on thin ice with them for the rest of the episode.]]
* ThinkingOutLoud: She does this to keep from freaking out after the Commonwealth soldiers separate the group into train cars. [[TruthInTelevision It's actually a recommended coping mechanism for people suffering from ADHD.]]
* TraumaButton: She counts in Spanish and recites state capitals as a way of keeping her cool whenever things get bleak.
* TrueCompanions: Comes to accept Eugene, Ezekiel, and Yumiko as this, which is why she goes back to help them in "Splinter" despite having an opening to escape.
-->'''Princess:''' Not everyone was bad. There was Mrs. Travis. Sammy and his people. And ''them''.
* TwoGirlsToATeam: Joins Eugene's group as the second female member heading to rendezvous with Stephanie at the railyard.
* UndyingLoyalty: As they're the only people she's encountered in over a year, she quickly grows attached to her new companions Eugene, Ezekiel, and Yumiko. She spends most of "Splinter" worrying about Yumiko after she gets hit over the head by one of the Commonwealth soldiers.
* WeNeedADistraction: She flirts with Mercer to keep him from discovering Eugene and Stephanie using the Commonwealth's radio equipment without permission.
* WomanChild: Chirpy demeanor, colorful wardrobe, handles a machine gun like a toy, has a bit of an appetite for sweets... yep, she qualifies.
[[/folder]]

* InnocentlyInsensitive: She says she doesn't go by "queen" because she thinks it makes her sound old and pretentious... not knowing Ezekiel used to call himself "king", or that his ex-wife Carol was his "queen".

* KarmicJackpot: After beating up Trooper Davis, she has the opportunity to escape the railyard and argues with a hallucination of Ezekiel who encourages her to strike out on her own.

By not leaving, Princess secures a karmic jackpot for the other members of the group: she notices a picture of Yumiko on the Commonwealth's wall honoring their lost, which convinces the four not to jump ship, and ensures that Yumiko gets to reunite with her estranged brother, Ezekiel gets the medical treatment he needs that ultimately saves his life, and Eugene (after a period of deception due to Lance's machinations) finally gets to meet his radio contact who turns out to be the love of his life, Max.

* BroodingBoyGentleGirl: With Mercer as of "Trust". She comforts him after he's forced to kill two of his own traitorous soldiers, and assures him that she can handle whatever problems they have to face together in the future.

* TheCakeIsALie: PlayedForLaughs when she is concerned about Eugene when he barricades himself in his apartment after Stephanie stands him up for an ice cream date. Princess offers him lasagna if he lets her inside.

Despite her seemingly devil-may-care attitude she's actually a great listener and due to her past has a knack for recognizing when people are going through trauma.
* HyperAwareness: She has a short attention span but makes up for it by picking up on subtle details that others don't.
** Notably, she's the only one to spot a picture that Tomi posted of his sister on the Commonwealth's wall honoring their fallen loved ones. This convinces the group to stay when they were moments from making their escape and likely severing ties with a vast community that could provide aid to their friends struggling in Alexandria.
