13 Most Compelling Backstories In The Walking Dead

11. Rosita

When she was first added to the show, it seemed as if she was just another pretty face waiting to be eaten. However, Rosita has come further than most fans expected. Managing to avoid being just another pretty horror victim, Rosita is actually beginning to show some depth on the show. So, since on The Walking Dead character growth usually spells imminent doom outside of the core characters (just ask Bob), maybe it's time to delve back a little. She does have a pretty specific (and dark) origin in the comics, at least post-outbreak, until she meets up with Abraham, something we haven't seen yet on the show in flashbacks or otherwise. For viewers, they've just always been together. However, as far as the show is concerned, Rosita comes off as having a certain toughness and combat ability that wasn't exactly expected, at least initially. How she came to have that would be something certainly worth exploring. As would be her more distant past: it's known she has a sibling and at least one nephew, but little else has been uncovered about Rosita's past.
