Orion is one of the central travelers and remains committed to the journey after Arlo is killed and the group is separated. He mourns Arlo with the Messenger, learns the scale of the undead threat, and fights through exhaustion beside Griff and Arcanus in the final battle.
Craig is an ordinary photographer and experienced traveler whose belief in preparation drives the story. He activates Plan Z, shelters Bill, and leads the group's dangerous escape from town. Craig prioritizes safety, rejects hopes of a cure, and chooses the remote Isle of Skye as their best chance to survive.
