“

Think I'm fuckin' around? Now I gotta sit down here and babysit you assholes. Can't do a simple fuckin' patch job without me here crackin' the whip? ―Troy after Clementine, Kenny, and Mike are attacked by walkers.

”

Troy is an antagonist and a survivor of the outbreak in The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series. He is a member of William Carver's group. He served as the secondary antagonist of the first half of Season 2.

Overview

Troy is a violent, aggressive, and rather unintelligent individual that seems to enjoy tormenting those beneath him. While most guards at Howe's Hardware exert a modicum of patience when dealing with the "workers", Troy is quick to resort to violence and threats at the slightest provocation, even when dealing with children. Being one of Carver's right-hand men, Troy is unwaveringly loyal to him, though his lack of intellect keeps him from being respected by his leader, and ultimately leads to his death when Jane is able to trick him into lowering his gun.

Troy's loyalty to Carver seems at least partially based on fear. While Carver brutally beats on Kenny, Troy is visibly unnerved and later is interested in leaving Howe's Hardware with the group after being sweet-talked by Jane, possibly inspired by Carver's death.

Pre-Apocalypse

Location Unknown

Nothing is known about Troy's life prior to or as the outbreak began.

Post-Apocalypse

Howe's Hardware

It is unknown when Troy joined Carver's group, but it can be inferred that he is a relatively trusted member as he joins Carver's team to help track down the cabin group. It is also implied that he made sexual deals with Jane in the past in exchange for helping Carver trust her and to get her out of the pen.

Season Two

"A House Divided"

Troy, along with Carver, Bonnie and Johnny tracks the cabin group to the Moonstar Lodge after they leave the cabin. They save several members from a herd of walkers surrounding the lodge that were attracted by the out-of-control wind turbine, but then quickly surround them and take them hostage. Troy marches them into the lodge at gunpoint and guards them while Carver searches for Rebecca. When Johnny is suddenly shot dead by Kenny, Troy hides behind a pillar and scans unsuccessfully for the shooter. He stands by as Carver executes Walter, showing slight shock at the incident. He then holds Rebecca back as he brings out Alvin to face the same fate. If Clementine chose to seek out Kenny and tells him to shoot, or surrenders and doesn't say or do anything, Carver is shot in the shoulder, leaving Troy stunned. However, Carver quickly recovers from the nonlethal wound and kills Alvin. Otherwise, Troy continues to guard the prisoners as Kenny is coaxed out of hiding, and escorts them during the trip back to Carver's camp.

"In Harm's Way"

Troy appears at the start of the episode, allowing Sarah to relieve herself in the woods. He makes a questionably suggestive remark to which Sarah and Clementine glare at him for. He then talks to Carver about their current situation. He acts as the primary guard of the prisoners while they sleep in the yard. He is seen many times throughout the episode, mostly keeping Clementine, Kenny and Mike in line. When the walkers attack them, Troy comes in and saves Clementine, much to his irritation. He then orders them back to their jobs and gets furious because he has to babysit Kenny and Mike for not doing their work properly. When Clementine is caught in the comic bookstore, he threatens Clementine with violence if she ever disobeys him again. Later on, after Luke, Kenny, Mike and Clementine are caught trying to plan an escape the compound, they are brought back to the garden area. While Carver brutally beats Kenny, Troy will hit Clementine with the butt of his assault rifle if she chooses to help Kenny, leaving a cut on her cheek. If Clementine does nothing, Sarita will be hit by Troy instead, and then he unnecessarily threatens them all with death. 

Later on, after Carver is killed, Troy appears outside with the others, angrily asking them what they are trying to do. Luke slowly reaches for an assault rifle nearby but Troy notices and aims his gun at him. Jane, who approaches Troy seductively, starts to sweet talk him, causing him to lower his gun and soften slightly. However, she moves his gun and shoots him in the crotch, causing him to fall to the ground, screaming in pain. The group then uses him as a distraction as they push their way through the herd using walker guts. Troy is then devoured by walkers. 

Death

Killed By

• Jane (Caused)

After Carver had his head bashed in by Kenny, the group is confronted by Troy while smearing themselves in walker guts to escape the oncoming hoard. Troy, shocked and confused threatens to shoot them all, likely after seeing Carvers corpse in the room before them. Jane, holding a gun behind her back walked up to Troy, convincing him he is able to come with them and stay safe. Troy, ultimately convinced, agrees, and lowers his gun before he is shot in the groin by Jane, who then collapses on the ground, screaming in pain distracting the surrounding walkers.

• Zombies

As Troy is writhing on the ground and screaming, he is surrounded by multiple walkers as he is left to be devoured alive. It is unknown whether Troy turned or not, or if his body was too mangled to move, for Troy is never seen again throughout the series.

This list shows the victims Troy has killed:

• Roman (Alongside William Carver, Bonnie, and Johnny)
• Victor (Caused, alongside William Carver, Bonnie, and Johnny)
