Background

Post-Apocalypse
Hunting The Bandits
Charlotte first appears in "Starved For Help" with Danny St. John when he and Lee Everett go searching for the Save-Lots Bandits in the forest after they attack Mark and the St. John's Dairy Farm. After being captured by the St. Johns, Lee and Kenny escape the meat locker and end up fighting against Danny. Lee gains the upper hand and disarms Charlotte from Danny. He gives the rifle to Lilly in case she needs it later. Lilly, if Lee attempted to save her father, uses Charlotte to shoot Andy St. John, saving Lee.
Bandit Attack
Charlotte s later used by Lee while scavenging in Macon, and against the Save-Lots Bandits. Charlotte isn't seen again. It's likely Charlotte was in the RV and either left behind by Lee's group or taken by Lilly when she drives away, depending on Lee's choice to leave or take Lilly with them.
Killed Victims
The following is a list of victims killed by Charlotte:
- Jolene (Determinant)
- Beatrice (Determinant)
- Numerous counts of zombies and unnamed Save-Lots Bandits.
