Lauren

Lauren is a survivor of the C-Virus outbreak in Crossed: Dead or Alive.

Personality
While her personality isn't fleshed out a lot, she seems to be loyal and dedicated to the group. She also is hinted to be very cautious, especially when cleaning her gun.

Pre-Apocalypse
Nothing is known about Lauren's life prior to the apocalypse.

Post-Apocalypse
At some point during the apocalypse, Lauren joined up with Carl and his group.

Crossed: Dead or Alive
Lauren is first seen accompanying the group walking in front of Justin, and later, sits near him while Richie and Carl keep watch. She is later seen keeping watch with Carl, and helps him look when Carl spots some crossed. Her name is finally revealed in Issue #4, where Richie initially desires to take her away from the group. She later expresses disbelief when the group find the bridge blown up. While discussing options, Lauren points out going into the woods will cut the distance between them and the crossed.

While in the woods, Lauren lags a bit to keep an eye out for crossed, and tells Richie and Joe that the crossed are close. After Justin accidentally steps in a rabbit hole and sprains his ankle, crossed attack, forcing Lauren, Carl, Luke, and Richie to hold them off while Joe and Tabitha carry him to safety. Carl then tells Lauren and Luke to go with the others while he and Richie see how far back the horde is. When getting far enough away, Lauren keeps looking back to see if Carl had caught up, and notes there haven't been any shots or screams.

She later appears with the group when they confront an injured Richie after he attempted to leave Carl for dead, and she, along with Joe, begin looting his backpack. Lauren is shown to be angered when she finds toilet paper in Richie's bag. While Richie rants, she tells Joe not to shoot him.

She, along with the others, leave Richie to be killed by the crossed.
