Linda is an original character and an antagonist who appears in Telltale Games' The Walking Dead: Season One. She is a member of the Save-Lots Bandits.
Pre-Apocalypse
Location Unknown
Nothing is known about Linda's life before the outbreak began, except that she worked at a Save-Lots mall on the main Georgia Interstate, which is how she met the group of bandits.
Post-Apocalypse
Season 1
"Starved For Help"
Linda's name was mentioned by Jolene, along with Jake and Bart at the end of the episode.
"Long Road Ahead"
She appeared in this episode with the bandit group during their attack on the Travelier Motel due to Lee removing their package of drugs, thus causing them to believe that the deal had been ended without their consent. After the bandits raided the camp, they lined up the prisoners, Linda roughly shoving Carley or Doug to their knees, before covering them as well as Ben Paul. After Lee appeared with his hands raised, she trained her crossbow on him instead. Following Lilly killing the Bandit Leader, she stood, bewildered, before being shot in the head by either Carley or Doug.

Jolene
- "JAKE, BART, LINDA, and ALL YA'LL FUCKIN' SICKOS FROM THE SAVE-LOTS! THEY CALL YA'LL BANDITS! BUT YOU'RE FUCKING RAPIST MONSTERS--"
- —Jolene shouting at the Save-Lots Bandits.[src]
Jolene sought refuge at her place of employment, Save Lots, with her daughter post-apocalypse. There she met a group of bandits who she attempted to join showing that she may have trusted them or had faith in them when they first met. Instead, they supposedly raped and killed her daughter Danielle, causing her to despise them and form plans to kill them.
Bandit 1
- "Oh, shit!"
- —Linda after the bandit's death.[src]
This bandit and Linda do not interact on screen, but it can be assumed that they are an efficient team as they easily rounded up the motor inn survivors in a matter of seconds. They work with their bandit compatriots to keep the hostages secure. She was shocked at her leader's sudden demise
