Zombicide Survivor: Marvin

About this expansion

Zombicide Survivor: Marvin is a promotional Survivor character for Zombicide, a game for 1–6 players. Once a bodyguard, Marvin now scouts a zombie-ravaged city, using his legendary luck to protect fellow Survivors and search for people who have gone missing.

Marvin Redfield’s mother always believed he was born under a lucky star and destined for greatness. Her faith proved justified when Marvin survived a grisly accident that left him an orphan, emerging from the rubble without a scratch.

As an adult, Marvin became a bodyguard. He used his remarkable luck to better protect those around him, and when the zombie apocalypse began, his greatest concern was not his own safety but the survival of his friends.

Today, Marvin moves through the city trying to save as many people as possible. His luck has given him the aura of a “redemption angel”, inspiring some people to pray that he will find their lost loved ones amid the death vortex. Marvin, however, has no interest in becoming a messiah.

• Role: A bodyguard turned apocalypse scout
• Standout trait: Incredible, legendary luck
• Purpose: Protecting Survivors and searching for the missing

Despite his reputation, Marvin’s personal wish has never changed: he simply wants to be left in peace. This contrast between his reluctant humility and his almost miraculous fortune gives Zombicide Survivor: Marvin a distinctive place among the game’s Survivors.

Marvin was offered as a promotional Survivor to supporters who pledged extra during the Kickstarter campaign. He may also appear in limited quantities at conventions, while a zombie version, or Zombivor, was planned for backers in 2013.
