Biography[]
Farron, first name unknown, was a female Caucasian in her apparent mid-late twenties with blonde hair. In the years following the fall of society as a result of a zombie apocalypse, she was living in the U.S. state of Virginia. Farron became a member of a survivor group known as the Scavengers, who were based out of a massive junkyard called The Heap. Like most members of this group, Farron demonstrated a minimalist pattern of speech, but she appeared to possess basic knowledge of combat maneuvers, including firearms.
The Scavengers were led by a woman named Jadis, who had brokered a deal with Rick Grimes and the people of the Alexandria Safe-Zone to fight on their behalf in a pending war against another group called the Saviors. Unbeknownst to Rick, Jadis made a counter-deal with Savior leader Negan, which involved the Scavengers ultimately betraying the people of Alexandria.
On the day that the Saviors arrived to do battle against the Alexandrians, Farron took up a sniper position along with Michonne. When the signal came down, she turned her gun against Michonne and flatly stated, "We win". The two women fought against one another, and she brutalized Michonne by repeatedly bashing her face upon the concrete. The women continued to fight, but Michonne was able to get the upper hand and stabbed Farron in the face with a sharpened piece of stone. She then sent her toppling off the balcony to her death.
After the battle was over, Rick and the others found Farron's broken body lying in the street. [1]
Notes & Trivia[]
- The character of Farron was created by director Greg Nicotero, showrunner Scott M. Gimple and writers Angela Kang and Matthew Negrete based upon concepts developed by Robert Kirkman.
- Farron is exclusive to the continuity of The Walking Dead television series. In the The Walking Dead comic book series, there is a character named Connor who is a Savior, who fights with Andrea in the bell tower, not Michonne. [2]
- Final fate: Stabbed in the face by Michonne, then thrown off the balcony. Presumably, she is put down by somebody before she has the chance to reanimate.
