Personality
Lee is a good guy for the most part. He doesn't have any radical character traits as the case with most video game protagonists. This is especially true as most choices that Lee makes will be decided upon by the player. That doesn't mean that Lee is a bland character in the slightest. His character is defined by the people that he interacts with such as Clementine. Their relationship is key to showing a parent/child relationship as well as showing how protective Lee can be. Lee's strongest trait is being protective of the group and having leadership skills that have yet to be proven. Lee is also protective of his conviction and the facts around it. It is up to the player to decide whether to be truthful about his past or to be protective of it.
