Michonne is a fictional character featured in the AMC survival horror series The Walking Dead. Played by actress Danai Gurira, the character made a brief appearance in the season two finale, "Beside the Dying Fire", and was fully introduced in the premiere episode of season three, "Seed".

Overview

Michonne is a samurai sword-wielding survivalist who lived in the state of Georgia. She learned hard and fast how to make it on her own in a world turned upside down and overrun with flesh-eating zombies. Capturing two "walkers", Michonne severed their arms and lower jaws, effectively rendering them useless as a threat and kept them bound to her by sturdy lengths of chain, presumably to mask her scent from other walkers in the area. (WD: Beside the Dying Fire)

Biography

Immediately following the conflagration at the Greene farm, Michonne came upon a woman named Andrea, who had separated from her group and was fleeing from a walker. Michonne dispatched the creature with a stroke from her sword, saving Andrea's life. Unable to regroup with her own camp, Andrea remained with Michonne through the winter and the two took refuge in an abandoned gun shop called the Deer Cooler.

Michonne kept Andrea safe, particularly when she fell ill from fever. She constantly surveyed the surrounding areas with her two impotent walkers in tow, savagely cutting through any active walkers that encroached upon the area. (WD: Seed)
