Characters introduced in Rot & Ruin
Benny Imura
"It's just that I'm fifteen, and I have this crazy idea that I might actually have a life in front of me."
The protagonist of the series, Benny is a teenager haunted by the trauma of watching his parents being turned into zombies on the first night of the apocalypse, and resentful of his older brother Tom for not saving them. His perspective on zombies and people changes when he joins Tom as an apprentice bounty hunter.
- Annoying Younger Sibling: To Tom at the start of the series. Their relationship improves vastly by the end of the first book.
- Apologetic Attacker: To the zoms he fights in later books, as a way with coping with the guilt of killing what are essentially sick, mindless creatures who used to be human.
- Badass Creed: 'Warrior Smart'. Becomes his Battle Cry later as well.
- Battle Couple: Becomes one with Nix.
- Blood Oath: He and Chong made one when they were nine, swearing never to date any of their friends... Benny actually holds onto it as he gets older and starts developing a crush on Nix. When he confesses this to Chong, Chong promptly hits him and calls him an idiot for holding onto a dumb promise they made when they were kids.
- Brilliant, but Lazy: As Tom points out, Benny is smarter than he looks. But at the start of the series, he's only interested in finding an easy job that'll let him keep his rations, and has no interest in the world outside of his town.
- Deadpan Snarker: Is always ready with a sarcastic comment, no matter the circumstances.Saint John: The darkness wants to take you. The darkness wants to take us all. Do you not agree?Benny: Um...no? Not today, thanks.
- Dead Person Conversation: Starts having these with Tom after his death, and wonders more than once whether this means he's going crazy.
- Dogged Nice Guy: Eventually becomes this to Nix.
- Fantastic Racism: Absolutely despises zombies at the start of the series, after having lost his parents to them. He learns to take a more black and white view over the course of the first book.
- Fiery Redhead: Benny acts first and thinks later, and, especially in the first book, has a hard time keeping control of his temper.
- Half-Sibling Angst: Doesn't seem to have this with Tom despite them only sharing a father, and never refers to Tom as his 'half-brother' - but does use this to hurt his brother when he calls their mother 'my mom' during an argument. It works.
- Hypocritical Heartwarming: Spends most of the first book calling Tom a coward. When Charlie calls Tom a coward? Benny punches him in the face.
- Kid Hero: Is 15 at the start of the series and 16 by the end of it.
- Love at First Sight: Thinks he has this with Lilah when he first sees her on a Zombie Card and is struck by her beauty and the sadness in her eyes... but gets over it pretty quickly once he actually meets her.
- Love Epiphany: After years of denying his feelings for Nix because he can't imagine dating a girl he's known since he was in diapers, he risks life and limb to rescue her from Charlie and when they've finally gotten to safety... realises he does have feelings for her and kisses her.
- Oblivious Younger Sibling: Starts off the series this way, being completely skeptical of people's view of Tom as a fearless, legendary bounty hunter. Exascerbated by the fact that he barely has any idea what Tom does in his job, nor does he see his brother's unbeatable fighting skills for himself until later in the first book.
- Parental Abandonment: His die on First Night when he's only a baby. Although he has no memories of them, the faint memory of their death has a significant effect on how he views the world and his brother.
- Repressed Memories: Of First Night. Benny is convinced that Tom abandoned their mother to be killed by their newly zombified father. In truth, their mother had already been bitten when she told Tom to take Benny and run, and Benny's memory of her white dress with 'red sleeves' is actually the memory of blood soaking through her dress.
- Sibling Team: Forms one with Tom when he becomes his apprentice.
- Successful Sibling Syndrome: At the start of the first book. Benny hates being known as the famous Tom Imura's kid brother, especially since he believes Tom's heroic reputation to be a sham. He bitterly refers to his brother as 'Mr-I'm-Freaking-Perfect-Tom-Imura'.
- Taking Up the Mantle: After Tom's death, he takes his place as leader, including adopting his sword.
- Took a Level in Badass: Under Tom's training and guidence, he grows into a fierce warrior and eventual leader.
Tom Imura
"It's okay to be scared. Scared means you're smart. Just don't panic. That'll get you killed."
Benny's older brother, one of the most feared and famous bounty hunters and zombie killers in California. Tom has a different approach to hunting zombies, though, as Benny soon learns.
- The Ace: Tom's character in a nutshell. He's the best, most famous zombie killer in the Ruin, and has the admiration and respect of the town of Mountainside, to the point where the mayor and the sheriff see his presence as the only thing preventing a wave of total anarchy and crime in the Ruin. The bounty hunters also seem to see him as their de facto leader.
- Affectionate Nickname: 'Kiddo' for Benny and 'sweetie' for Nix, which she doesn't mind, much to Benny's annoyance.
- Aloof Big Brother: His relationship with Benny is strained at the start of the series, in part due to a lack of communication.
- Big Brother Instinct: Towards Benny, obviously, and later Lilah, Nix and Chong when he takes them under his wing.
- Big Brother Mentor: The first book's plot kicks off with him taking Benny on as his apprentice. Not only does he train his brother to fight, but he's also full of wisdom and advice that change the way Benny views the world.
- Crazy-Prepared: And tries to instill this in his students through a method he calls 'warrior smart'.
- Dark and Troubled Past: Lost his birth mother when he was a child, and then watched his father turn into a zombie and murder his adopted mother, leaving him to fend for himself and his baby brother at the age of twenty.
- Deadpan Snarker: Has his moments.Tom: The day I'm jealous of someone like Charlie Pink-Eye is the day I'll cover myself in steak sauce and walk out into a crowd of the living dead.
- The Dreaded: To Charlie's bounty hunters, who are reluctant to take him on in a fight even when they've got him outnumbered and outgunned.
- Happily Adopted: By his stepmother after she marries his father when he's sixteen, and whom he never refers to as anything but 'Mom'. He tells Benny that she was more of a mother to him than his birth mother, who died when he was too young to remember her.
- In-Series Nickname: 'Fast Tommy' by some of the other bounty hunters. J-Dog and Dr Skillz call him 'Kahuna', which in Hawaiaan means 'shaman'.

- The Lost Lenore: Jessie Riley is this to him after her death, to the point where he tells Lilah he doesn't think he can ever love another woman again.
- Master Swordsman: His weapon of choice for killing zoms is his katana.
- The Mentor: To his 'New Samurai'. Even makes a joke about it by calling them 'my young Jedi'. Inevitably leads to Mentor Occupational Hazard.
- Mr. Fanservice: One of Nix's journal entries describes how half the women in town are in love with him, to the point where groups of them gather in his neighbour's garden to watch his shirtless sword practicing sessions. The webtoon milks this by giving him a gratuitous Shirtless Scene.
- My Greatest Failure: Sparing Charlie's life after killing the other nine bounty hunters that attacked Sunset Hollow. Charlie begged for his life and swore to turn over a new leaf. He lied. Tom holds himself responsible for all the bloodshed and suffering that Charlie caused after.
- Not So Above It All: Despite being The Stoic, has his moments: such as calling his students 'my young Jedi' and quipping 'I'm not the sheriff of these here parts' in a goofy Old Western accent when Kirsch and Strunk try to convince him to stay in Mountainside.
- Parental Abandonment: Loses his birth mother when he's too young to remember her, and then his father and adopted mother on First Night.

- Spirit Advisor: After his death, Benny and Lilah hear his voice in their heads, mostly with advice and warnings during dangerous or difficult moments.
- She Is Not My Girlfriend: Insists to Benny that he and Jessie are just friends and nothing more, which later turns out to be Blatant Lies.
- The Stoic: Is calm and unflappable in the face of murderous zombies and psychopathic bounty hunters. Very rarely shows flashes of temper and Benny describes his face as 'only showing the expressions he wants to show'.
- Team Dad: As the oldest in the group and the kids' mentor, falls inevitably into this.
