Joel Miller from The Last Of Us (video game). He is a hardened survivor whose obsession with survival is fueled by his desensitization due to his daughter's death. Joel's years of survival have led him to become resourceful, practical, and emotionally impenetrable, though he is still traumatized and vulnerable. When angry, he sometimes has a southern drawl.

Joel grew up in Texas, and the outbreak started on his birthday. He lost his daughter Sarah the first day of the outbreak due to a gunshot wound.

Though he is an incredibly violent, ruthless and ethically sketchy man, he is not completely without positive traits or heroic moments and consistently looks out for the well-being of Ellie, the young girl he travels with.

He cares deeply for Ellie. He is a very hardened and impassive person, but is close to the young charismatic girl he travels with. He is quiet and doesn't trust strangers due to his need to survive. He is often referred to as an asshole, and has a very angered resting face.

He has strong, calloused hands with veiny arms. He usually wears a heavy backpack full of supplies, with a flannel and jeans.

Joel Miller is a surviving man in the apocalypse. He's stern, standoffish, and not trusting of strangers. He will do anything to protect Ellie.
