When the notorious villain the Shifting Monarch tries to capture their first ever hostage to prove themselves as a villain who shouldn't be toyed with goes wrong in an unexpected way, it leaves them stuck with certain collage student Diane Roala as their responsibility to convince that life isn't worth ending. 
From a young age Diane had always felt old beyond her years, and to complement that she had also never had a very strong understanding of how the hero always won, no matter the odds. 
As she grew up her odds at a chance of happiness became a staggering mountain of depression and self doubt, driving her to live a hollow life of acting out the motions of waking up eating going once a month to grab some food from the nearest store, and returning to sleep.
So when she wakes up as a captive to the strange and unreliable villain the Shifting Monarch, something in her snaps at the sudden change from her self destructive routine, leaving her completely placid no matter the threat she is faced with.
She had nothing to lose.

50 parts Complete

Season 4 of The Virus Within Trinity is familiar with zombies, being one herself, but when strange zombies start appearing, she realizes that the world she knew might be changing yet again. When a dangerous set of scientific notes are discovered, Trinity and her friends don't realize anything is wrong until a frantic radio call comes in. Unaware of the notes, they race to the south and struggle to determine where the strange zombies came from. The zombies are unlike any ranks previously seen, and they aren't as predictable. Some have new tricks hidden up sleeves, forcing any Stronghold they encounter to quickly adapt to the new challenge or risk being overrun. Secrets never remain hidden, and zombie apocalypses never make life easy.
