Alex found the team after they had already played three games. He had been wandering around the countryside after the attack, looking for something to do with his life. He fought with Steven and Sam, but ran when the others ran. He finally found the other survivers and joined them as a thrower. He feels he is the best thrower of the survivers and is out to prove he is better than Jessica. He is really just a young kid, ousting Mary as the youngest, at 15 years of age.
