Lex – The Tribe Guide

Lex was one of the original member of the Mall Rats. Full of macho bravado, he was initially a sexist bully who was out to stir trouble in the tribe. After contracting the virus, the death of his wife and unborn child and a stint of problems with alcohol, he revealed more vulnerable sides. Though at times foolhardy and selfish, Lex was a valuable member of the tribe who cared for those closest to him.

Story overview

The Bully

Determined to be top dog in the mall, Lex would bully, steal and intimidate to get his way, or just to display dominance. He despised Bray and Trudy and actively tried to get them out of the mall, and was frequently at odds with Amber and the girls due to his old-fashioned views about labour division (girls cook and clean, boys hunt and fight). He secured the position of tribe leader through bribes and threats, but quickly grew tired of the responsibility and instead took the role of Head of Security.
