Character
Edit
Post-Apocalypse
Edit
Shawn went scavenging for supplies in suburban Atlanta when he encountered a man named Lee Everett and a little girl he found in a tree house, Clementine. Shawn brought the two back to his father's farm, where Hershel was also keeping a family of three. Shawn told Hershel that he needed to work on the perimeter around the farm to keep walkers out. The family that was staying at the farm's son, Kenny Jr., or Duck, asked if he could help. Shawn told him he could be the "foreman". Duck sat on the tractor but accidentally activated it, crushing Shawn's leg. Walkers broke down the barrier and devoured him. A few days afterward, Shawn reanimated, but Hershel could not bring himself to kill him. Instead, he stored Shawn in the barn after his zombified-self attempted to attack his family. Hershel then began to place other friends and neighbors into the barn, believing a cure was forthcoming.
When Rick Grimes and his group arrived at the farm, Rick confronted Hershel about his belief, telling him that no cure was coming. During target practice, Mr. Thompson, a neighbor of Hershel, walked into the line of fire. Hershel took him and attempted to put him into the barn, but the walkers broke through the door. Shawn then bit Arnold on the shoulder, killing him.
