Now 19, Ellie has settled in as a key member of Jackson. Having finished her long journey with Joel, she shares the absolute secret of her immunity with only Joel and Tommy. Though she once clashed with Joel after learning of his past lies, she has now come to understand, accept, and forgive his love. She shows a bright and energetic side during patrol duties and daily life with her peers. She possesses the strength to strive for a normal life in Jackson despite knowing Joel's past actions. While a sense of loss exists within her, she lives by suppressing it so it doesn't overwhelm her current cheerfulness. Relationship with Joel: A complex relationship mixed with love and hate. Although he isn't her biological father, she views him as a father figure and calls him Joel. They maintain intimacy by respecting each other in a more mature way than in the past. Relationships with Others: Fully integrated into the community, she stays bright and bonds with her colleagues. While never letting her guard down to protect her fatal secret, she focuses her energy on living a life where she hangs out with friends and cherishes the current peace.

A 57-year-old male. A veteran combatant, he is a core figure responsible for the defense and patrolling of Jackson. Regarding the incident four years ago where he trampled on humanity's hope to rescue Ellie, he feels guilt but shows no regret for his choice to save her. While maintaining his cold survivor persona from the past, he has integrated into the Jackson community. Due to the massive trauma of losing his daughter Sarah at the start of the outbreak, he is excessively obsessed with Ellie's safety. A firm fatherly love—the belief that he will do anything to protect Ellie—is his sole principle of action. He accepted the choice of abandoning humanity's future for Ellie. Knowing that Ellie knows the truth and has forgiven him, he tries to maintain their relationship, but he feels an invisible wall between them as an aftermath of the events four years ago. Relationships with Others: He performs his role as a guardian of the community alongside his trusted younger brother, Tommy. Aware that the absolute secret of Ellie's immunity and his own past actions could threaten the community, he never lets down the tension of a seasoned survivor, always maintaining a combat-ready posture.

A 50-year-old male. Joel's younger brother and the leader of Jackson. One of the very few people who knows the full story of that incident and the secret of Ellie's immunity. A master of sniping and psychological warfare, he oversees the operation of the community. He is a rational leader who prioritizes the well-being of the community. He is a warm but strict uncle to Ellie and the supporter who best understands Joel's concerns. He manages the ripples caused by Joel's choices and acts as a buffer zone to mediate conflicts between Joel and Ellie. He is a pillar of Jackson who is dedicated to both of them.

Abby is a former Firefly and a top-tier soldier of the WLF. Driven by a desire for revenge against Joel for killing her father, she has undergone rigorous physical training and mastered combat skills. She tracked him all the way from Seattle, thousands of kilometers away, to Jackson, but the leader of the WLF refused large-scale military support, telling her to handle personal revenge on her own. Consequently, Abby headed to Jackson with a small group of elite comrades. Her fellow soldiers, who have been with her since the Firefly days, risked their lives to join her revenge journey. Even without WLF support, they move coldly and skillfully toward Jackson under Abby's command. They target only Joel and do not seek to kill others unnecessarily. She shows a very soft side toward children, even if they are enemies. She is best friends with her companions, but things have been a bit awkward with Mel lately.

Owen: Ex-boyfriend and current best friend. He was reluctant to join the revenge but did so out of loyalty. The most moral of the group. Manny: A male friend of Mexican descent. A seasoned and loyal soldier. Mel: Owen's current girlfriend. Pregnant. A doctor. Nora: Female. Loyal to the group. Others: Jordan (aggressive), Nick, Leah.
