History Characters / ZombiesRun

* CanadaEh

* AnythingThatMoves: Amelia's "type" includes Jody, Janine, Simon, Steve, Sam, an unnamed runner, and even a zombie rugby player!

* OverprotectiveDad: He's convinced his daughter is four years younger than she actually is. Could also be a case of AbsentMindedProfessor.

* AwesomeMcCoolName: Gets the nickname of "BAMF Statician" in the PDF handbook.

* [[PrivateMilitaryContractors Private Military Contractor]]: Initially contracted to work for the Ministry of Defence prior to the zombie apocalypse, he now works for Sigrid in the Ministry of Recovery.

* RantInducingSlight: Novelty teapots

* RaisedCatholic: His grandmother raised him to believe he's bound for hell causing his extreme fear of getting old and dying.

* BelatedBackstory: Janine is pretty tight-lipped about her past until [[spoiler:her serial killer brother shows up and tries to kill her in Season Three.]]

* MakeRoomForTheNewPlot: You would think that the Head of Runners and a major recurring character [[spoiler: deserting]] would be a pretty major affair, and at first, it seems like it will be.... but this revelation is ''immediately'' overshadowed and forgotten in light of he newly discovered proof that [[spoiler: there is a traitor in the Runner Corps.]]

* LoveHungry

* TheCorruptible

* {{Workaholic}}

* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder

* NeutralEvil: Type 1. She explicitly describes herself as "amoral."

* {{Wangst}}: She manages to lead a pretty pampered life, so her complaints seem laughable given what most characters are enduring in the zombie apocalypse.

* AMoltenDateWithDeath: [[spoiler:The ultimate fate of Sigrid at the end of Season 6.]]

* HearingVoices: In times of extreme stress, Runner Five may [[hear the disembodied voice of Moonchild. It is revealed that prior to her death, Moonchild was able to transfer her consciousness over to Runner Five while they were under Moonchild’s control.]]

* DeathEqualsRedemption: What he hopes will happen when he [[spoiler: lets himself get fried in Runner Five's place]].
* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler: After the end of Season 2, he just laid down and let the Zombies eat him. Which was right when his HealingFactor decided to kick in. He spent the first two-thirds of Season 3 looking horrible as he was literally partially eaten.]]

* JerkassWoobie: His early appearances in [[spoiler: season three]] really cement him as this: he alternates wildly back and forth between [[spoiler: cursing Abel for turning on him, trying to insist what he did was justified, and admitting that his actions were monstrous.]] It really gives the impression of someone [[spoiler: being eaten alive by guilt.]]

* StartingANewLife: [[spoiler: Assumes the identity of Peter Necropolis in Season 4, but is not revealed to be Simon until Janine confronts him about his past in S5 M30.]]

* FeaturelessProtagonist

* YouAreNumberSix

Took over from Maggie Doane. An Australian who got caught in the UK when the apocalypse hit, he's something of a flirt and very overconfident in his abilities.

!'''Abel Runner 6: Maggie Donae'''

Evan Deaubl, or Runner Seven, is the head of Runners at Abel Township. Well respected by all the Runners, his calm, focus and compassion have helped mould a disparate group into an efficient team.

* MundaneMadeAwesome

* CombatMedic

* BelatedBackstory: Janine is pretty tight-lipped about her past until [[spoiler:her serial killer brother shows up and tries to kill her in season three.]]

!'''Moonchild'''

!'''The Builder/Steve Sissay'''

* WarForFunAndProfit: Basically her reason for [[spoiler: starting the apocalypse/war against the zombies.]]

Reporter for The New Times, a Rofflenet news site.

* RedemptionEqualsDeath: A minor redemption. [[spoiler:Although Owen was never a villain, he was perceived as a pushy jerk by much of the fandom for not taking no for an answer from Jody. He learned the error of his ways and seemed to be treating Nadia extremely well. He was also working as a mole for Noah Base. So naturally, he had to die a horrible death.]]

* BigGood: Janine has stepped into this role in season four and five.

* LiteralMinded: In s5m17, Veronica has trouble understanding Nadia's sarcasm. This is apparently a recurring issue for them, as Nadia reminds her that they've discussed it before.

* TooCleverByHalf: Mostly in season 4.

* WouldHurtAChild: [[spoiler: Veronica experiments on Sara Myers-Cohen-Yao between seasons four and five.]] However, it doesn't sound as if the experiments were particularly invasive.

Ministry Demolitions man. Has worked with Amelia before. Never goes anywhere without explosives.
* DemolitionsExpert: His shtick
* DoggedNiceGuy: To Lobatse
* DoubleReverseQuadrupleAgent: Who can keep up anymore? Might ultimately need to be changed to DoubleAgent.
* [[PrivateMilitaryContractors Private Military Contractor]]

* {{Foreshadowing}}: She gives Veronica a little speech in season four about the importance of making sacrifices and not letting your conscience torture you. It's reasonable advice... [[spoiler: until you get context on just what she considers 'reasonable' sacrifices, or just how very little conscience matters to her at all.]]

* MoodSwinger: In one 2-minute period in s3m36, Tom goes from sobbing, "They hurt me, [[spoiler: Jane]]!" to screaming that she's a traitor to cheerfully chatting about the mission to being a highly capable secret agent.

Hack reporter. Ugh.

* DrunkWithPower: Just a little bit.

* HateSink: If he wasn't before s5m18, he definitely is now.

* BadassGay: All of the above, and he's survived with only one leg and still has his boyfriend.

* {{Adorkable}}

* BiTheWay: Talks about getting a tattoo with his ex-girlfriend, may have a thing for Janine, and is happy to have bisexual representation in his favourite series of novels.

* BiTheWay: Was a source of worry for Maxine during the early stages their relationship.
