About the game

No one seems to know this gruff latino’s real name but everyone calls him El Cholo. Whether he minds, or even cares is unknown, El Cholo rarely speaks, preferring to let his twin machetes do the talking. A hardened farmhand or possibly an ex-cartel enforcer, putting Zombies down at close quarters is El Cholo's specialty, and damn! he's good at it. The survivors whisper stories of hopeless last stands and daring raids, and El Cholo walking out covered in (someone else's) blood. El Cholo is a promotional Survivor that was available to those that pledged at a certain level on the Kickstarter campaign. He may be available in limited quantities at upcoming conventions. A zombie version (Zombivor) will be available to backers in 2013.
