“ | Growing up in rural Georgia, you're taught not to waste. It's how I was raised and how I raised my boys. Now, you've got monsters roaming around, that do nothing but eat people! And for what? To continue to rot until they eat some more! We thought we could put that meat to better use. | „ |
~ Brenda explaining her views to Lee's group. |
Brenda St. John is one of the three main antagonists in "Starved For Help", the second episode of the first season of Telltale Games' The Walking Dead video game series.
She is the matriarch of the St. John Family. Although at first she and her sons appeared friendly towards Lee and his band of survivors, Brenda was eventually revealed to be someone who resorted to murder and cannibalism in an effort to stay alive during the zombie apocalypse.
She was voiced by Jeanie Kelsey.
Biography[]
Brenda and her sons are members of the cannibalistic St. John Family. She was a disturbingly pleasant woman who saw no wrong in her actions and genuinely believed it was acceptable to eat those who were weak and dying so that the "strong" could survive.
Brenda and her sons had become so unstable that they even believed serving Lee and the other survivors the legs of Mark, of one of their own injured friends, was a good deed and she was angry when Lee and the others rightfully objected abducting Kenny's wife and son whilst having her sons lock the other survivors in a room. However, while holding one of Lee's friends hostage, she was caught off guard and bitten by a reanimated Mark, who had succumbed to blood loss and returned as a zombie.
In a fitting touch of irony, she not only became more of a cannibal than any of the zombies in the series, but she became a meal to the innocent human being she butchered for her own survival.
After the protagonists leave the farm, Brenda, now a walker, is seen coming from her house to join the others in feasting on her son.
Death[]
- Killed by zombified Mark: When Brenda holds Katjaa hostage at the St. John's house and threatens to kill Lee, Mark as a walker bites Brenda on the neck which leads her to reanimate.
- Killed by Lee Everett (caused): Lee exposing the St. John's true colors lead to them attacking his group which ultimately leads to Brenda's death when they attack back.
Victims[]
- David Parker (caused or indirectly caused): David getting stuck in the bear trap with no release hatch in the woods led to his death. It is highly likely that Brenda or another member of the St. John family set up this trap to catch humans to eat. Originally, if Lee didn't free David from the trap, Mark would get killed by the Bandits and David would be dinner instead. This confirms that the St. Johns set up the trap, however this whole scenario was scrapped.
- Travis (indirectly caused): David getting stuck in the bear trap in the first place leads to Travis getting devoured by walkers or accidentally shot by Mark.
- Mark (caused): Brenda and the rest of her family were involved in cutting off Mark's legs and serving them for dinner.
- Larry (indirectly caused): Brenda and the rest of her family throwing Lee, Kenny, Lilly, Clementine and Larry in the meat locker causes Larry's death when he has a heart attack and is put down to prevent reanimation.
- Numerous unnamed people that the St. Johns killed and ate to survive.
